This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, store, and use personal information when you use our websites or communicate with us during our business activities. It also describes the choices you can make regarding how your provided information is utilized.
For website users and others interacting with us online, the responsible CodeHaste entity is CodeHaste Management Limited (Registered Address: Cannon Place, 78 Cannon Street, London, United Kingdom, EC4N 6AF) or the specific entity you initially contacted.
For other individuals, such as job applicants or attendees of our corporate events, the responsible CodeHaste entity is the one that originally collected your information. This will be clarified in the notices you receive when providing your data.
This Privacy Policy applies only when we process data on our behalf (as a controller) and not to any information we may handle on behalf of our customers or third parties. Such data is subject to the privacy policies of the respective customer or third party.
When you use our websites or communicate with us, we collect various types of information, including personally identifiable information ("Personal Information") that can identify an individual or be used to identify an individual with reasonable effort.
We may anonymize or de-identify collected information, so it cannot personally identify you. Such aggregated or de-identified data is not subject to restrictions under this Privacy Policy, and we may use or disclose it without limitation for any purpose.
We use and share Personal Information as described in this Privacy Policy for various purposes, including identifying and authenticating your access, conducting analytics to improve our websites and communications, presenting business opportunities regarding our products and services, sending marketing communications and newsletters, managing job applications, supporting and troubleshooting our services, and complying with legal requirements.
We will collect, use, and share your Personal Information only when we have an appropriate legal basis, such as performing a contract, pursuing legitimate interests, complying with legal obligations, or obtaining your consent.
We may share your Personal Information with other companies in our group to assist us in fulfilling the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy or managing our business. Additionally, we share information with third parties and service providers who help with data analytics, marketing, and other business functions. These third parties agree to confidentiality restrictions and use Personal Information solely for the contracted services.
We may also disclose Personal Information if necessary to comply with laws, regulations, legal processes, or government requests; enforce our policies; investigate or prevent illegal activities, fraud, or security issues; defend against legal claims; protect the rights, property, or safety of ourselves, our users, or others; or collaborate with law enforcement agencies.
We may use Personal Information to inform you about our products and services that may interest you. We might contact you via email, post, phone, or other communication channels. We will respect your preferences for managing marketing activities.
To protect your privacy, we will limit direct marketing to a reasonable level and send communications we believe are relevant to you. You can opt-out of direct marketing at any time by following the "unsubscribe" link in our emails or adjusting your browser settings to manage cookies used for online advertising.
We take security seriously and implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect against accidental loss, unauthorized disclosure, or access to Personal Information. These measures include confidentiality requirements for staff and service providers, anonymizing or destroying Personal Information no longer needed, and applying security controls to storage and disclosure of data.
While we strive to protect your information, we cannot guarantee the security of communications over the Internet. We advise taking appropriate measures to secure your computer, user IDs, and passwords.
We retain Personal Information as long as necessary for the purposes it was collected. If the information is no longer needed, we ensure secure disposal. In some cases, we may retain data longer for legal, regulatory, tax, or accounting reasons or to maintain an accurate record of dealings in case of complaints or litigation prospects.
As a global company, your Personal Information may be transferred to and stored in countries with different data protection standards. We take steps to ensure such transfers comply with applicable laws and protect your privacy rights. This includes ensuring transfers within our group adhere to privacy laws, obtaining contractual commitments from third-party service providers, and validating requests from law enforcement or regulators.
Depending on the processing activity and applicable laws, you may have rights regarding your Personal Information, such as access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection, data portability, and filing complaints with supervisory authorities. We may ask for additional information to verify your identity and for security purposes before disclosing Personal Information. We will make reasonable efforts to honor your requests promptly, subject to legal and other permissible considerations.
