Privacy policy

1. PURPOSE

  • Ensure compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), UK GDPR, CCPA and all other privacy and data protection legislation in the countries where we operate;
  • Ensure employee confidence and compliance in their Processing of Personal Data, and being fully informed and aware of their responsibilities and obligations; and

2. STATEMENT

Your privacy and trust are important to us and this Group Privacy Policy (“Policy”) provides important information about how Boldyn Networks Global Limited and its worldwide affiliated companies (“we”, “us”, “our”, ‘Boldyn Networks”) Process your Personal Data.

In the course of our business we may need to Process your Personal Data and this Policy details what information is collected and how it is collected, disclosed, protected, used and for how long it is stored and for what purposes and with whom it is shared.

We also advise how you may request access to your Personal Data and how to make a complaint.

Boldyn Networks is the data controller in relation to the Processing activities described below. This means that we decide why and how your Personal Data is Processed.

We are committed to protecting your privacy and Processing your Personal Data fairly and lawfully in compliance with the GDPR and all other privacy and data protection legislation in the countries where we operate. If you have any questions about this statement or our privacy practices, please contact our Privacy Officer on the contact details set out below.

This is our main Privacy Policy. Each of our Group Companies may have their own separate privacy policy which is specific to the laws of the country within which that Group Company operates. We may also provide additional, specific privacy information to you as you interact with us in different ways (e.g. that we will only use certain information for specific purposes). To the extent that a Group Company’s privacy policy differs from what we say below, those differences will apply in those circumstances.

This Policy may change from time to time so please check this page occasionally to ensure that you’re happy with any changes.

13. YOUR RIGHTS IN RELATION TO THE PERSONAL DATA WE COLLECT

Under data protection law, you have rights we need to make you aware of. The rights available to you depend on our reason for Processing your Personal Data, and we set these out below:

  • You have the right to ask us to restrict the Processing of your Personal Data where you believe it is unlawful for us to do so, you have objected to its use and our investigation is pending or you require us to keep it in connection with legal proceedings. In these situations, we may only Process your Personal Data whilst its Processing is restricted if we have your consent or are legally permitted to do so, for example for storage purposes, to protect the rights of another individual or company or in connection with legal proceedings;
  • Where we rely on our legitimate business interests as the legal basis for Processing your Personal Data for any purpose(s), as outlined under section 9 on how we may lawfully Process your Personal Data, you may object to us using your Personal Data for these purposes by emailing or writing to us at the address at the end of this Policy.

  • You can ask us to send your Personal Data directly to another service provider, and we will do so if this is technically possible. We may not provide you with a copy of your Personal Data if this concerns other individuals or we have another lawful reason to withhold that information.
  • You are not required to pay any charge for exercising your rights. We have one month to respond to you.
  • Please contact our Privacy Officer on the contact details below in relation to any of the above rights.

  • If you would like to withdraw your consent or object to receiving any direct marketing to which you previously opted-in, you can do so using the unsubscribe tool in that communication (if it is an email), or by writing to us or calling our Privacy Officer using the contact details at the end of this Policy.
