We limit the personal data provided to these service providers to that which is reasonably necessary for them to perform their functions, and we require them to agree to maintain the confidentiality of such information.

We may transfer your personal data to recipients in countries outside the Philippines whose laws may not provide the same level of data protection. When we do so, we will ensure that there are adequate safeguards in place to protect your personal data that comply with our legal obligations. The adequate safeguard might be a data transfer agreement with the recipient based on standard contractual clauses approved by relevant authorities for transfers of personal data to third countries. For more information about the transfers described above and the adequate safeguards we use to protect such transfers, you may contact us through the contact information set forth below.

Retention periods

We take measures to delete your personal data or keep it in a form that does not permit identifying you when this information is no longer necessary for the purposes for which we process it, unless we are required by law to keep this data for a longer period. When determining the retention period, we take into account various criteria, such as the type of services we provide to you, or that you provide to us, the nature and length of our relationship with you, possible re-enrollment with our services, the impact on our services if we delete some information from or about you, mandatory retention periods provided by law and the relevant statute of limitations.

Your rights and choices

You can contact us at any time for assistance regarding the processing of your personal data. Furthermore, you have the right at any time to:

Obtain confirmation that we are processing your personal data and request a copy of the personal data we hold about you;

Ask that we update the personal data we hold about you, or correct such personal data that you think is incorrect or incomplete;

Ask that we delete personal data that we hold about you, or restrict the way in which we use such personal data if you believe that there is no (longer a) lawful ground for us to process it;

Withdraw consent to our processing of your personal data (to the extent such processing is based on consent);

Receive a copy of the personal data concerning you, which you have provided to us, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and to transmit such personal data to another party (to the extent the processing is based on consent or a contract);

However, there are exceptions and limitations to each of these rights. We may, for example, charge a reasonable fee or refuse to act on a request if it is manifestly unfounded or excessive, in particular because of its repetitive character. In some situations, we may refuse to act or may impose limitations on your rights if, for instance, your request is likely to adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others, prejudice the execution or enforcement of the law, interfere with pending or future litigation, or infringe applicable law. In all cases, you have a right to file a complaint with a data protection authority.
