Your actions of accessing and/or using the Site, the Service and/or communicating any information in a manner explained in this Privacy Policy signify that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy and you agree to the collection and use of your information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. If you are based in Singapore, you provide your consent to us collecting, using and disclosing your personal data in accordance with this Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy should be read in conjunction and together with the terms of use and other policies as may be available on the Site (collectively the “Terms of Use”). Please read this Privacy Policy and in the event you do not agree to the terms or policies specified herein, please discontinue the usage of the Site and the Service.

Unless otherwise defined in this Privacy Policy, capitalized terms used in this Privacy Policy have the same meanings as in our Terms of Use.

This Privacy Policy applies to the following data subjects: Users of the Site and/or Service, including Customers, Partners, Contractors and Employees and all visitors of www.agilehro.com with whom Agile HRO does not have a contractual relationship. Depending on data subject category and country of residence this Privacy Policy may from time to time be supplemented by additional policies issued by us and other parties which will be notified to you separately. For example, personal information about Employees hired by any of our local legal entities can be co-controlled by these local entities and, where required by law, an additional policy will be notified to you in case the local entities engage in personal data processing not covered in this Privacy Policy.

The terms “personal data”, “data processing” and “data subject” have the same meaning as under Regulation (EU) 2016/679 – the General Data Protection Regulation.

We will only share your information with the third parties listed below for the purposes described above in the “Information Use” Section, unless otherwise noted at the point of collection:

How long we keep your personal information

In accordance with applicable data protection laws, we do not store your personal information for longer than needed for the purposes of the respective processing activity. The relevant retention periods depend on the national legislation of the country you are based in.

If the personal information is no longer required for the performance or enforcement of contractual or legal obligations, we will delete it regularly, unless its further temporary storage is still necessary to:

> fulfil our obligations pursuant to the agreement between us and a Customer/Employee/Contractor;

> establish, exercise, and defend a legal claim; or

> fulfil statutory obligations to which we are subject, such as continued storage pursuant to accounting legislation.

You have the right to request that we delete any of your personal information, subject to exceptions set forth by the law (such as, including but not limited to, where the information is used for compliance and other legal reasons, to identify and repair errors on this Application, to detect security incidents and protect against fraudulent or illegal activities, to exercise certain rights, etc.).

If no exception applies, as a result of exercising your right, we will delete your personal information and direct any of our service providers to do so.

Security

Data protection is ensured by encryption and security measures throughout the lifecycle of your data. However, despite our best efforts, security cannot be absolutely guaranteed against all threats. To the best of our ability, the access to your personal information is limited to those who have a need to know. Those individuals who have access to the personal information are required to maintain the confidentiality of such data. In addition, please note that emails, messages sent via your web browser, and other similar means of communication with other users, are not encrypted. Therefore, while we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its security.

Please also be aware that we may use third-party cloud service providers that provide hosting, data storage and other services pursuant to standard terms and conditions that may be non-negotiable. These service providers have informed us or the general public that they apply security measures they consider adequate for the protection of information within their system, or they have a general reputation for applying such measures. However, we will not be liable (to the fullest extent permitted by law) for any damages that may result from the misuse of any information, including your personal information, by these companies.

International Transfer

We are part of a global network of companies and in common with other professional service providers, we use third parties located in other countries to help us run our business. As a result, personal information may be transferred outside the countries where we or Users are located. Personal information may be transferred internally to our affiliates and externally to third parties (including payroll processors, payment partners and service providers) across international borders for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. This may include transfers to countries that may not have laws that provide the same degree of protection for the personal information as your home country. In accordance with applicable legal requirements, we take appropriate measures to facilitate adequate protection for any personal information so transferred, only in accordance with legally approved transfer mechanisms that are appropriate under applicable data protection laws.

Link To Other Sites

Our Site and/or Service may contain links to other sites that are not operated by us. If you click on a third-party link, you will be directed to that third party’s site. We strongly advise you to review the privacy policy of every site you visit. We have no control over, and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies or practices of any third-party sites or services.

Privacy of Minors

We do not knowingly collect personal information from persons under 18. If you are under the age of 18, please do not submit any personal information through our Site or Service. If you have reasons to believe that a person under the age of 18 has provided personal information to us through our Site or Service, please contact us. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from persons under 18 without verifiable parental consent, we will take steps to remove that information from our servers.

Your Rights

Under applicable privacy regulation, you may have some or all of the following rights in respect of your personal information:

> your right of access – to obtain a copy of your personal information together with information about how and on what basis that personal information is processed;

> your right to rectification – to rectify inaccurate personal information or to complete information you think is incomplete;

> your right to erasure – to erase your personal information in certain circumstances where it is no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which it was collected or processed;

> your right to restriction of processing – to restrict processing of your personal information in certain circumstances;

> your right to object to processing – to object to the processing of your personal information in certain circumstances; and

> your right to data portability – to ask that we transfer the personal information you gave us to another organisation, or to you, in certain circumstances.

In addition to the above, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority for data protection. You also have the right to withdraw your consent to the processing of your information at any time. We may ask you for additional data to confirm your identity and for security purposes, before disclosing data requested to you. We reserve the right to charge a fee where permitted by law. We may also decline to process requests that jeopardize the privacy of others, are extremely impractical, or would cause us to take any action that is not permissible under applicable laws. Additionally, as permitted by applicable laws, we may need to retain certain personal information for a limited period of time for record-keeping, accounting and fraud prevention purposes.

To exercise these rights, you may contact us by emailing agile@agilehumansolutions.com. If you make a request, we have one month to respond to you. Please note also that you may be able to exercise some of these rights without our intervention. For example, if you are a registered Platform user, you can access and update some of your personal data.
