  • For compliance, fraud prevention and safety purposes

 

We may sell, transfer or otherwise share some or all of our business or assets, including your personal information, in connection with a business transaction (or potential business transaction) such as a corporate divestiture, merger, consolidation, acquisition, reorganization or sale of assets, or in the event of bankruptcy or dissolution. In such a case, we will make reasonable efforts to require the recipient to honour this Privacy Policy.

 

We do not sell, rent or otherwise make personal information commercially available to any third party, except with your prior permission.

HOW WE PROTECT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

In proportion to the sensitivity of the information, we maintain reasonable administrative, technical, and/or physical safeguards and appropriate security measures to protect personal information from loss, misuse or unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction of the information you provide. However, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information, as no electronic data transmission or storage of information is completely secure. You should only access the services within a secure environment.

HOW LONG WE KEEP PERSONAL INFORMATION

We will only retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

 

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal information, the purposes for which we process your personal information and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.

YOUR RIGHTS

You have the right to ask us not to process your personal information for marketing purposes. We will inform you (before collecting your personal information) and obtain your consent if we intend to use your personal information for such purposes (unless in respect of our own marketing if you are an existing customer and have not opted-out of such communications) or if we intend to disclose your information to any third party for such purposes. You can exercise your right to prevent such processing by checking certain boxes on the forms we use to collect your personal information. You can also exercise the right at any time by contacting us at hello@seaforest.co or clicking on “Unsubscribe” when we send you any electronic marketing.
