5. DO WE USE COOKIES AND
OTHER TRACKING
TECHNOLOGIES?
In
Short: We may use cookies and other
tracking technologies to collect and store your
information.
We may use cookies and similar
tracking technologies (like web beacons and pixels) to access or
store information. Specific information about how we use such
technologies and how you can refuse certain cookies is set out
in our Cookie Notice
.
6. HOW LONG DO WE KEEP
YOUR
INFORMATION?
In
Short: We keep your information for as
long as necessary to fulfil
the purposes outlined in this
privacy notice unless 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 notice, unless a longer retention period is
required or permitted by law (such as tax, accounting, or other
legal requirements).
When we have no ongoing legitimate
business need to process your personal information, we will
either delete or anonymise
such information, 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.
7. HOW DO 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
and reasonable technical and
organisational security measures
designed to protect the security of any personal information we
process. However, despite our safeguards and efforts to secure
your information, no electronic transmission over the Internet
or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100%
secure, so we cannot promise or guarantee that hackers,
cybercriminals, or other
unauthorised third parties will
not be able to defeat our security and improperly collect,
access, steal, or modify your information. Although we will do
our best to protect your personal information, transmission of
personal information to and from our Services is at your own
risk. You should only access the Services within a secure
environment.
8. DO WE COLLECT
INFORMATION FROM
MINORS?
In
Short: We do not knowingly collect data
from or market to children
under 18 years of age.
We do not knowingly solicit data
from or market to children under 18 years of age. By using the
Services, you represent that you are at least 18 or that you are
the parent or guardian of such a minor and consent to such minor
dependent’s use of the Services. 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 may have collected from children
under age 18, please contact us at
support@baremetalsoftwarelimited.com

information.

to request access and obtain a copy of your personal

below.
We will consider and act upon any

10. CONTROLS FOR
DO-NOT-TRACK
FEATURES
Most web browsers and some mobile
operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track
('DNT') feature or setting you can activate
to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your
online browsing activities monitored and collected. At this
stage no uniform technology standard for recognising and implementing DNT signals has
been finalised. As such, we do not currently
respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that
automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online.
If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow
in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a
revised version of this privacy notice.

methods as the circumstances dictate.
We will only use personal
information provided in your request to verify your identity
or authority to make the request. To the extent possible, we
