International transfers of data

We strive to keep your data inside the EEA where possible, but sometimes our partners may require that some data is transfered to other countries such as the USA. Where this happens, we ensure that appropriate data transfer mechanisms are in place. If our partners are unable to provide appropriate safeguards, we refrain from using their services.

Use of cookies and other tracking technologies

In short: we use cookies and other tracking technologies to collect and store your information.

Cookies are small files stored inside your web browser by websites which are sent back to the website each time a web page is loaded. Only the website which stores the cookie may read the cookie.

How long we keep information

In short: we keep your information for a maximum of two years, or as long as is otherwise required by law.
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). No purpose in this policy will require us keeping your personal information for longer than two years.
When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymise it, 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.

How we keep your information safe

In short: we aim to protect your personal information through a system of organisational and technical security measures.
We have implemented appropriate technical and organisational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process. However, please also remember that we cannot guarantee that the internet itself is 100% secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, transmission of personal information to and from our Sites is at your own risk. You should only access the services within a secure environment.

Do we collect information from minors?

In short: not knowingly.
We do not knowingly solicit data from or market to children under 13 years of age. By using the Sites, you represent that you are at least 13 or that you are the parent or guardian of such a minor and consent to such minor dependent’s use of the Sites. If we learn that personal information from users less than 18 years of age has been collected, we will deactivate the account and take reasonable measures to promptly delete such data from our records. If you become aware of any data we have collected from children under age 13, please contact us at hi@numbereight.ai.
