Who will we share this data with, where and when?

With your consent (where required), we share your personal data with trusted third-party service providers, suppliers, affiliates, divisions, partners, sponsors, agents and representatives we have engaged with to perform business-related functions on our behalf. For example, to (i) conduct research and analytics; (ii) create content; (iii) provide customer support services; (iv) conduct or support marketing; (v) fulfil orders; (vi) handle payments; (vii) host Services; (viii) administer contests, and (ix) maintain databases.

In all cases, the third party is acting on Au Finja’s express instructions and in accordance with this Policy, confidentiality, and levels of security.

Without your consent, we share your personal data:

• • • With third-party platforms such as Facebook or Google to send you targeted advertisements on our behalf
    • In response to legal process, for example, in response to a court order or a subpoena, law enforcement or government agency’s request
    • With third parties, if this will help us to enforce our policies and terms of use, to check for potential illegal activity (such as copyright infringement or fraud) or to protect the safety of other users of the Services; and
    • If we, or one of our business units, undergoes a business transition, like a merger, acquisition by another company, or sale of all or part of our assets.

 

How long will we retain your data?

Where we process personal data for marketing purposes or with your consent, we process the data until you ask us to stop and for a short period after this (to allow us to implement your requests). We also keep a record of the fact that you have asked us not to send you direct marketing or to process your data indefinitely so that we can respect your request in the future.

 

What rights do I have?

You have the right to ask us for a copy of your personal data; to correct, delete or restrict (stop any active) processing of your personal data, and to obtain the personal data you provide to us for a contract or with your consent in a structured, machine-readable format, and to ask us to share (port) this data to another controller.

You can object to the processing of your personal data in some circumstances (in particular, where we don’t have to process the data to meet a contractual or other legal requirements, or where we are using the data for direct marketing).

These rights may be limited, for example, if fulfilling your request would reveal personal data about another person, where they would infringe the rights of a third party (including our rights) or if you ask us to delete information which we are required by law to keep or have compelling legitimate interests in keeping. We will inform you of the relevant exemptions we rely upon when responding to any request you make.

To exercise any of these rights, or to obtain other information, such as a copy of a legitimate interest balancing test, you can get in touch with us using the details set out below. If you have unresolved concerns, you have the right to complain to an EU data protection authority where you live, work, or where you believe a breach may have occurred. Where we require your personal data to comply with legal or contractual obligations, then the provision of such data is mandatory: if such data is not provided, then we will not be able to manage our contractual relationship with you or to meet obligations placed on us.

 

Withdrawing consent or otherwise objecting to direct marketing

Wherever we rely on your consent, you will always be able to withdraw that consent, although we may have other legal grounds for processing your data for other purposes, such as those set out above. In some cases, we are able to send you direct marketing without your consent, where we rely on our legitimate interests. 

You have an absolute right to opt-out of direct marketing we carry out for direct marketing, at any time. You can do this by clicking on the unsubscribe link at the bottom of our emails, or by contacting us using the details set out below.

 

Security Measures

We have put in place physical, electronic, and managerial procedures designed to help prevent unauthorised access, to maintain data security, and to use the personal data correctly we collect online. These safeguards vary based on the sensitivity of the personal data that we collect and store.

Although we take appropriate measures to safeguard against unauthorised disclosures of personal data, we cannot assure you that your personal data will never be disclosed, altered or destroyed in a manner that is inconsistent with this privacy notice.

 

Children’s Privacy

Our services do not target and are not intended to attract children under the age of 16. We do not knowingly solicit personal data from children under the age of 16 or send them requests for personal information.

 

How do I get in touch with you?

We hope that we can satisfy queries you may have about the way we process your data. If you have any concerns about how we process your data or would like to opt-out of direct marketing, you can get in touch at info@aufinja.com.

We will notify you about any upcoming material changes by either sending you an email to the email address you most recently provided to us or by prominently posting a notice on our Services.
