Grounds for using your personal data

We rely on the following legal grounds to process your personal data, namely:

• Performance of a contract – We may need to collect and use your personal data to enter a contract with you or to perform a contract that you have with us. For example, when you use our Services we will use your personal data to respond to your requests and provide you with the services you have requested;
• Consent – We may use personal data as described in this Privacy Policy subject to your consent. To withdraw your consent you can contact us via email at [email protected] or you may be able to disable settings, such as, the sharing of location data in your browser or mobile application settings. Where required by applicable laws, we will rely on your consent for direct marketing and to collect data from your device or computer.
• Legitimate interests – We may use your personal data for our legitimate interests to improve our products and services and the content on our Services. Consistent with our legitimate interests and any choices that we offer or consents that may be required under applicable laws, we may use technical data as described in this Privacy Policy and use personal data for our marketing purposes.

Third-party services and content

Our Services may include integrated content or links to content provided by third parties (such as video materials). This Privacy Policy does not address the privacy, security, or other practices of the third parties that provide such content.

We engage third parties that support the operation of our Services, such as analytics providers. These third parties may use technologies to track your online activities over time and across different websites and online platforms. Please see our Cookies Policy for more data.

Protection and storage of the data we collect

The Services are controlled and operated by us. We may store the data we collect in the Cayman Islands or in other countries where we or our service providers have facilities. We may process the data we collect in jurisdictions where we or our service providers have facilities.

To ensure that your personal data does receive an adequate level of protection we have put in place standard data protection clauses with all affiliated entities of Tech Cayman or service providers who we may share data with to ensure that your personal data is treated by those third parties in a way that is consistent with this policy. If you require further data about this protective measure, please contact us via email at [email protected].

In addition, we deploy administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to comply with applicable legal requirements and safeguard the data that we collect. This includes, when required or appropriate and feasible, obtaining written assurances from third parties that may access your data that they will protect the data with safeguards designed to provide a level of protection equivalent to that adopted by us.

However, no data system can be 100% secure. So, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of your data. Moreover, we are not responsible for the security of data you transmit to us over networks that we do not control, including the Internet and wireless networks.

Your choices and rights

Subject to local law, you may have certain rights regarding data that we have collected and that is related to you. We encourage you to contact us to update or correct your data if it changes or if you believe that any data that we have collected about you is inaccurate or out of date. You can also ask us to see what personal data we hold about you, to erase your personal data and you may tell us if you object to our use of your personal data. In some jurisdictions, you may have a right to complain to your local data protection authority. If you would like to discuss or exercise the rights you may have, send us an email at [email protected].

Your ability to exercise these rights will depend on a number of factors and in some instances, we may not be able to comply with your request, for example because we have legitimate grounds for not doing so, or where the right doesn’t apply to the particular data we hold on you.
