How Do We Use Your Email Address?

By submitting your email on this website, you grant to receive emails from us. You can cancel your participation in any of these email lists by clicking on unsubscribe option that is included in the respective email. By submitting your email address, you agree to allow us to use your email address for customer audience targeting on sites like Facebook, where we display custom advertising to specific communities who have opted-in to receive communications from us. Email addresses submitted only through the order processing page will be used for sending you information and updates about your order. If you have provided the same email to us through another way, we may use it for any of the purposes stated in this Policy.

How Long Do We Keep Your Information?

We hold your information only so long as we need it to offer LEI Regulator to you and fulfil the purposes described in this policy. This is the case for anyone that we share your information with and who carries out services on our behalf. When we no longer need to use your information and there is no demand for us to keep it to follow our legal or regulatory obligations, we’ll either remove it from our systems so that we can’t identify you.

How Do We Protect Your Information?

We develop a variety of security measures to keep the safety of your personal information when you place an order or submit, or access your personal information. We provide a secure server. All supplied sensitive/credit information is transported via Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology and then encrypted into our Payment gateway providers database only to be accessible by those authorised with special access rights to such systems, and are required to keep the information classified. After a transaction, your private information (credit cards, social security numbers, financials, etc.) is never placed on file. We cannot ensure or warrant the absolute security of any information you send to LEI Regulator or guarantee that your information on the Service may not be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed by a breach of any of our physical, technical, or managerial safeguards.

Could my information be transferred to other countries?

LEI Regulator is based in Spain. Information gathered via our website, through direct interactions with you, or from use of our help services may be handed over from time to time to our offices or personnel, or to third parties, located throughout the world, and may be viewed and hosted anywhere in the world, including countries that may not have laws of general applicability governing the use and transfer of such data. To the fullest extent authorised by applicable law, by using any of the above, you voluntarily consent to the trans-border transfer and hosting of such information.

Is the information collected through the LEI Regulator Service secure?

We take safeguards to protect the confidence of your information. We have electronic, physical, and managerial strategies to help safeguard, prevent unauthorised access, maintain data security, and correctly use your information. However, neither individuals nor security systems are foolproof, including encryption processes. People can commit voluntary crimes, make mistakes, or fail to follow policies. So, while we use honest efforts to protect your personal information, we cannot prove its absolute security. If applicable, law requires any non-dis-claimable need to protect your personal information, you agree that intentional misconduct will be the standards used to measure our compliance with that duty.

Can I update or correct my information?

The rights you have to ask updates and corrections to the information LEI Regulator collects depend on your relation with LEI Regulator. Personnel may update or correct their information as described in our internal company employment policies.

Customers have the right to ask the restriction of some uses and disclosures of personally identifiable information as follows. You can talk us in order to (1) update or alter your personally identifiable information, (2) modify your preferences with respect to transmissions and other information you get from us, or (3) delete the personally identifiable information kept about you on our systems (subject to the following paragraph), by cancelling your account. Such updates, corrections, changes and deletions will have no effect on other information that we maintain, or information that we have handed over to third parties following this Privacy Policy prior to such update, correction, change or deletion. To protect your privacy, we may take prudent steps (such as requesting a unique password) to verify your identity before granting you profile access or making corrections. You are responsible for maintaining the confidence of your unique password and account information at all times.

You should be conscious that it is not technologically possible to remove every record of the information you have handed over to us from our system. The need to back up our systems to secure information from unintended loss means that a copy of your information may exist in a non-erasable form that will be complex or impossible for us to locate. After receiving your request, all personal information saved in databases we actively use, and other readily searchable elements will be updated, corrected, changed or deleted as soon as and to the extent reasonably and technically viable.

If you are an end user and want to update, receive or delete any information we have about you, you may do so by contacting the organisation of which you are a customer.

Personnel

If you are a LEI Regulator employee or candidate, we collect information you provide to us. We use the information gathered for Human Resources purposes in order to provide benefits to workers and screen candidates.

You may contact us to (1) correct or update your information, (2) modify your preferences regarding communications and other information you get from us, or (3) get a record of the information we have concerning to you. Such corrections, updates, changes and deletions will have no effect on separate information that we keep, or information that we have provided to third parties following this Privacy Policy before such update, correction, change or deletion.

Sale of Business

We maintain the right to hand over information to a third party in the event of a sale, union or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of LEI Regulator or any of its Corporate Affiliates, or that part of LEI Regulator or any of its Corporate Affiliates to which the Service relates, or in the event that we discontinue our business or file a petition or have filed against us a petition in reorganisation, bankruptcy or similar proceeding, provided that the third party concedes to adhere to the terms of this Privacy Policy.
