SHARING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION WITH OTHERS

We understand the importance of your privacy and want to assure you that we will not share your personal information with any third party unless it is required by law or in certain circumstances. This includes sharing your information with companies within the IONIAN RESERVE group, third-party service providers who work with us as data processors, and professional advisers such as lawyers, bankers, accountants, auditors, insurers etc. We may also share your information with the government, regulators and other authorities if required to report processing activities.

Please note that if we sell any business or assets, we may disclose your personal information to the prospective buyer or actual buyer of such business or assets. If there is a change in our business ownership, the new owners may use your personal data in the same way as set out in this Privacy Policy.

We want you to know that we do not allow our third-party service providers to use your personal data for their own purposes and only permit them to process your personal data for specific purposes and in accordance with our instructions.

TRANSFERRING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION OUTSIDE THE EEA

We have no intention of transferring any personal data that we hold about you to a country outside the European Economic Area (EEA). However, if we do need to transfer your personal data out of the EEA, we will make sure that it is given a similar level of protection. There are three ways in which we can do this:

1. We will only transfer your data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data by the relevant regulators.

2. We will put in place specific contracts with the recipient that have been approved by the relevant regulators. These contracts will ensure that your data receives similar protection to what it has in Europe.

3. If the recipient is located in the US, we will only transfer your data if they are registered with the Privacy Shield (or any similar replacement scheme). This will require them to provide similar protection to your personal data as is required in Europe.

DATA SECURITY

We have implemented appropriate security measures to safeguard your personal data and prevent it from being lost, used, accessed, altered or disclosed without authorization. Moreover, we restrict access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors, and third-party entities who have a legitimate business reason to access it. They will process your personal data based on our instructions and are bound to maintain confidentiality. We have established procedures to handle any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any relevant regulator of a breach if required by law.

HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION FOR?

We will keep your personal information only for as long as it is necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected. This includes meeting legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. The appropriate retention period for personal data is determined based on various factors such as the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the data, the risk of unauthorized use or disclosure of your data, the purposes of processing, and the legal requirements. If you want us to delete your data, you can make a request for erasure under "Your Right to Access Your Personal Information and Your Other Rights". In some cases, we may anonymize your personal data for research or statistical purposes, which means that it can no longer be associated with you. We may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you. When your personal information is no longer required, we will take all reasonable steps to destroy or erase it from our systems.

YOUR RIGHT TO ACCESS YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION AND YOUR OTHER RIGHTS

If you would like to know more about your rights under data protection laws, please read the following information:

You have the right to request access to your personal data, which is also known as a "data subject access request". This will enable you to receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you and to check that we are processing it lawfully.

You also have the right to request that any incorrect or incomplete personal data we hold about you is corrected. However, we may need to verify the accuracy of any new data you provide to us.

If there is no good reason for us to continue processing your personal data, you have the right to request that it is erased or removed. You can also request that we erase your personal data where you have successfully objected to processing, where we have processed your information unlawfully, or where we are required by law to erase your personal data. Please note that there may be legal reasons why we cannot always comply with your request for erasure.

If we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) to process your personal data, and something about your particular situation makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms, you have the right to object. Additionally, you have the right to object where we are processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes. However, we may have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which override your rights and freedoms.

You also have the right to request that we suspend the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances, such as where you want us to establish the data's accuracy, where our use of the data is unlawful but you do not want us to erase it, or where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.

If you wish to transfer your personal data to a third party or to yourself, we will provide it to you in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Please note that this right only applies to automated information which you initially provided consent for us to use, or where we used the information to perform a contract with you.

Finally, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time where we are relying on it to process your personal data. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide certain products or services to you. We will advise you if this is the case.

If you wish to exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the contact details provided. There is no fee to access your personal data or to exercise any of these rights. However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive. Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.

We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity before we can respond to your request. This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.

We aim to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. However, if your request is complex or you have made a number of requests, it may take us longer than a month to respond. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated on the progress of your request.

MANAGING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

If you find that any personal data we hold about you is inaccurate, out-of-date or incomplete, please inform us by sending an email and we will rectify it.

CHANGES TO THIS POLICY

"We may need to modify this Privacy Policy periodically in response to changes in the law or our business requirements. We advise you to check this page regularly for any changes or updates to this Policy."
