We will only keep your personal information for as long as it is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law (such as tax, accounting, or other legal requirements). When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize such information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

We have implemented appropriate administrative, physical, and technical security measures in our organization that is designed to protect the security of any personal information we process. However, despite our safeguards and efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so we cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat our security, and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, transmission of personal information to and from our Website is at your own risk. You should only access the Website within a secure environment.

C. International transfers.

IQNOX is based in the United States of America (“USA”) and our servers are located in the USA. To provide our Services to you, please be aware that your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed by us in our facilities and by those third parties with whom we may share your personal information in the USA and other countries.

Data transfers for residents of the European Union (“EU”) are subject to the regulations of the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”). If you are located in the European Economic Area (“EEA”) or United Kingdom (“UK”), then these countries may not necessarily have data protection laws or other similar laws as comprehensive as those in your country. With that in mind, we use appropriate safeguards when we transfer your information outside the EEA or UK to ensure your personal information remains protected and to comply with applicable data protection laws.

The bases, mechanisms, and measures we rely on for international transfers include:

  • Adequacy Decisions. When applicable, we may rely on EU or UK adequacy decisions to transfer your information outside the EEA or UK. When the relevant EU or UK authority issues an adequacy decision, that means they found the third country to offer adequate protection for personal information.
  • Derogations. We may transfer information based on a derogation listed in Article 49 of the GDPR. We will only do so if the transfer of information meets specific strict conditions.
  • Standard Contractual Clauses: We have implemented measures to protect your personal information, including by using Standard Contractual Clauses for transfers of personal information between us and our group companies and between us and our third-party providers. These clauses require all recipients to protect all personal information that they process originating from the EEA or UK in accordance with European data protection laws and regulations. Our Standard Contractual Clauses can be provided upon request. We have implemented similar appropriate safeguards with our third-party service providers and further details can be provided upon request.
  • Supplementary Measures. When necessary, in addition to the Standard Contractual Clauses, we may adopt technical, contractual, and organizational supplementary measures to better ensure that the level of protection guaranteed by the GDPR is not undermined by the transfer.

5. How will we use your data for marketing?

IQNOX is committed to protecting and respecting your privacy, and we’ll only use your personal information to administer your account and to provide the products and services you requested from us. From time to time, we would like to contact you about our products and services, as well as other content from partner companies that may be of interest to you. If you have agreed to receive marketing, you may always contact us to opt out at a later date.

If you agree, IQNOX will share your data with our partner companies so that they may offer you their products and services.

A. How to Opt Out

You have the right at any time to stop IQNOX from contacting you for marketing purposes or giving your data to our partner companies.

If you no longer wish to be contacted for marketing purposes, please contact us.

B. Do Not Track

IQNOX currently does not respond to Do Not Track (“DNT”) signals in web browsers because no DNT standard has been adopted. The DNT concept has been promoted by regulatory authorities, including the USA’s Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”), to develop and implement a mechanism for allowing Internet users to control the tracking of their online activities across websites. Various browsers offer a DNT option that relies on a technology known as a DNT header that sends a signal to websites about the user’s DNT preference. You can usually access your browser’s DNT option in your browser’s settings.

The World Wide Web Consortium (“W3C”) has been working with industry groups, Internet browsers, technology companies, and regulators to develop a DNT technology standard. While some progress has been made, no standard has been adopted.
