• Legal Obligation: Processing is necessary to comply with legal requirements, court orders, or regulatory obligations to which we are subject.

Data Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties. We may share your data only in the following circumstances:

• Service Providers: We work with trusted third-party companies that provide services on our behalf, such as website hosting, email delivery, analytics services, payment processing, and customer support tools. These providers have access to your personal information only to perform specific tasks and are contractually obligated to protect your data and use it solely for authorized purposes.
• Business Transfers: If Chain Logic undergoes a business transaction such as a merger, acquisition, corporate restructuring, or sale of assets, your personal information may be transferred to the new entity. We will notify you via email or a prominent notice on our website of any such change in ownership or control of your personal data.
• Legal Requirements: We may disclose your information if required to do so by law, court order, legal process, or in response to valid requests by public authorities. We may also disclose information when we believe it is necessary to protect our rights, your safety or the safety of others, investigate fraud, or respond to a government request.
• With Your Consent: We may share your information with third parties when you have given us explicit permission to do so for a specific purpose.

Data Security Measures

We implement comprehensive security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. Our security practices include:

• Encryption of data in transit using industry-standard SSL/TLS protocols
• Secure servers with regular security updates and vulnerability assessments
• Access controls limiting data access to authorized personnel only
• Regular security audits and monitoring for suspicious activities
• Employee training on data protection best practices and confidentiality

However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

Data Retention

We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. Our retention periods are based on:

• The duration of our relationship with you and provision of services
• Legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, or reporting requirements
• The need to resolve disputes or enforce our agreements
• Legitimate business purposes such as fraud prevention and security

When we no longer need your personal information, we will securely delete or anonymize it in accordance with our data retention policy and applicable laws.

Under data protection laws, you have several rights regarding your personal information:

• Right to Access: You can request a copy of the personal data we hold about you and information about how we process it.

When we transfer personal data internationally, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your information in accordance with this Privacy Policy and applicable data protection laws.

For transfers from the European Economic Area (EEA) to countries not deemed to provide an adequate level of data protection, we use standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission or rely on other lawful transfer mechanisms.

Children's Privacy

Our services are not directed to individuals under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from children without verification of parental consent, we will take steps to remove that information from our servers.

When we make material changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page and may provide additional notice such as posting a prominent announcement on our website or sending you an email notification. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically to stay informed about how we protect your information.
