  7. INFORMATION TRANSFER
  8. HKBN JOS is an international corporation, and therefore we may need to share your information internally with subsidiary and/or associated companies within our group and externally with third party service providers and developers for the purposes and activities specified in this Privacy Policy. This may involve information being collected within the European Economic Area being transferred to countries outside of the European Economic Area, including the United States, although such transfers will always be limited to the purposes and activities specified in this Privacy Policy. Your information may therefore be subject to privacy laws that are different from those in your country of residence.

    We will take reasonable steps, such as entering into data transfer agreements based on the European Commission model clauses, or requiring compliance with the EU-US Privacy Shield to ensure that while your personal information is within our control, we will handle your personal information using reasonable security and confidentiality procedures to keep your personal information secure and confidential.

We implement reasonable administrative, organisational and technical safeguards and security measures to protect personal information within our control from unauthorised access, acquisition, disclosure, destruction or alteration, accidental loss, misuse or damage. We regularly review and monitor such safeguards and security measures.

    However, no security measures can ever be completely secure, therefore we cannot guarantee that these measures will stop any users who try to get around the privacy or security settings on the HKBN JOS website through unforeseen and/or illegal means.

    In the event that we believe that the security of your personal information in our possession or control may have been compromised or could be at risk, we will seek to notify you as promptly as possible. If we have your e-mail address, we may notify you by e-mail.

  11. HOW LONG WILL THE INFORMATION BE KEPT

    • an identifiable and ongoing business need, including record keeping,
    • a specific legal or regulatory requirement, and/or
    • a requirement to retain records that may be relevant to any notified regulatory investigations or active legal proceedings.

    Where there is no sufficient justification to retain such personal information, such personal information will be safely and securely deleted, disposed of, anonymised and/or blocked.
