Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy has been compiled to better serve those who are concerned with how their Personal Data is being processed by us. Personal Data, as described in the GDPR, is any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person; an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person. Please read our Privacy Policy carefully to get a clear understanding of how we collect, use, protect or otherwise handle your Personal Data.
What is the GDPR?
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a European Union directive approved by the European Commission in April 2016 (www.eugdpr.org). GDPR has entered into force on May 25, 2018 and has replaced the Data Protection Directive which has been the basis of European data protection law since 1995. The GDPR is an attempt to strengthen, harmonize, and modernize EU data protection law and enhance individual rights and freedoms, consistent with the European understanding of privacy as a fundamental human right. The GDPR regulates, among other things, how individuals and organizations may obtain, use, store, and eliminate Personal Data.
