For more information on our balancing tests, you may contact us as set out in the “How to Contact Us” section below.

We will not subject you to a decision based solely on automated processing that produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you, unless you explicitly consented to the processing, the processing is necessary for entering into, or performance of a contract between you and DADAKAI, or when we are legally required to use your Personal Data in this way, for example to prevent fraud.

7. Features and Links to Other Sites

You may choose to use certain features or services for which we partner with other entities, or click on links on our websites or platforms to other sites for your convenience and information. These features may operate independently from DADAKAI. They may have their own privacy policies, which we strongly suggest you review. To the extent any features or linked sites you visit are not owned or operated by DADAKAI, we are not responsible for their content or privacy practices.

DADAKAI relies on the legitimate interest legal ground to anonymize the data we receive from our customers. The types of data collected vary depending on the customer. For more information or to exercise your rights in relation to the data we receive from our customers, please contact the relevant customer.

8. Information Security

We maintain appropriate administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect Personal Data against accidental or unlawful destruction, accidental loss, unauthorized alteration, unauthorized disclosure or access, misuse, and any other unlawful form of processing of the Personal Data in our possession. For example we use SSL encryption on our website from which we transfer certain Personal Data and we also restrict access to Personal Data about you to those employees who need to know that information to operate our business.

9. Data Retention

We also take measures to delete your Personal Data or keep it in a form that does not permit identifying you when this information is no longer necessary for the purposes for which we process it, unless we are required by law to keep this information for a longer period. When determining the retention period, we take into account various criteria, such as the type of products and services requested by or provided to you, the nature and length of our relationship with you, the impact on the services we provide to you if we delete some information from or about you, mandatory retention periods provided by law and the statute of limitations.

10. International Data Transfers

We store your Personal Data in the European Economic Area. However, we may transfer or disclose Personal Data we collect about you to recipients in countries other than your country. These countries may not have the same data protection laws as the country in which you initially provided the information. When we transfer or disclose your Personal Data to other countries, we will protect that information as described in this Privacy Statement. We comply with applicable legal requirements when transferring Personal Data to countries other than the country where you are located. We may also transfer Personal Information to countries for which the EU Commission has issued an adequacy decision, or use contractual protections for the transfer of Personal Information to third parties, such as the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses. You may contact us as specified in the “How to Contact Us” section below to obtain a copy of the safeguards we use to transfer Personal Information outside of the EEA.

By continuing to use our websites, products and services after such revision takes effect we consider that you have read and understand the changes.
