How we protect personal data

Ozarign understands that storing personal data in a secure manner is an essential requirement of the Data Privacy Laws and, therefore, employs reasonable physical, technical, and administrative safeguards to secure such data against foreseeable risks, including unauthorized use, access, disclosure, destruction, or modification. More specifically, our information security team has developed policies, standards, and procedures to support and enforce preventive and detective operational controls to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of Ozarign’s client data. We utilize preventive and detective controls to safeguard our clients’ data.

Although we make good-faith efforts to store the information we receive from and on behalf of our clients in a secure operating environment that is not available to the public, Ozarign cannot guarantee complete security. Further, while we work to ensure the integrity and security of our network and systems, we cannot guarantee that our security measures will prevent third-party “hackers” from illegally obtaining this information.

Retention of information

We will only retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. To determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements including the statute of limitations periods.

International transfers of your information

Owing to the global nature of the Internet infrastructure, the information you provide may be transferred in transit to countries outside the European Economic Area (EEA) that do not have similar protections in place regarding your data and its use as set out in this policy. By submitting your information, you acknowledge these transfers. We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this privacy policy.

Ozarign enters into Data Transfer Agreements with its non-EEA offices and also with third party recipients of information which are located outside of the EEA or otherwise makes the transfers in accordance with the GDPR requirements. A copy of the form of European Data Transfer Agreements which are in the form approved by the European Commission is available at:

http://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX:32004D0915;

http://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/en/TXT/?uri=CELEX:32010D0087.

Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. However we have put in place various security procedures as set out in this policy. Although we will do our best to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to the Site; any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your information, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorized access.
