2. Why We Process Your Personal Data

We process your personal data for various purposes, each based on a corresponding legal basis. Here are the key purposes:

  • Creating and managing your account: We need to process your Account Data to fulfill our contract with you.
  • Developing and improving our Services: Processing Technical Data is in our legitimate business interest to enhance the delivery of our Services.

3. With Which Third Parties We Disclose Personal Data

Your personal data might be shared with various third parties under certain circumstances. These include:

  • Our third-party service providers who help us deliver our Services.
  • Other parties with whom you choose to share your data, depending on your use of our Services.
  • Public authorities, law enforcement, and other official bodies when legally required or to protect rights and safety.

4. Cookies

We do not use any third party cookies in providing our Services.

5. How We Transfer Personal Data Internationally

We try to process your data within the EU and UK as much as possible. Sometimes it is necessary to transfer your data outside the EU or UK to a country which does not provide for the same level of data protection as is provided in the EU and the UK, for example, if a third-party service provider is located outside Europe. When we transfer your data outside the EU or UK, we ensure that this is done in accordance with applicable data protection laws and that the protection of your data is adequately safeguarded. We do this, for example, by concluding agreements with third party service providers based on the EU or UK standard contractual Privacy Notice– October 2023 (Beta)Voyago.ai clauses for the international transfer of personal data. If you would like to receive more information on the safeguards taken, please contact us via james@voyago.ai.

6. How We Protect And Store Personal Data

We have implemented physical, technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data as required by applicable laws. These measures are aimed at ensuring the integrity and confidentiality of your personal data, for instance by ensuring that only authorised individuals have access to your personal data, and to protect it against unlawful or unauthorized destruction, loss, alteration, use or disclosure, or access. We evaluate and update these measures on a regular basis. Please be aware that no information system can be 100% secure. This means that we cannot guarantee the absolute security or availability of your personal data.

We will retain your personal data for the duration of your interaction with our Services, unless a shorter retention period is required by applicable laws or the data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which the data was obtained. Once you no longer interact with our Services, we will retain your personal data for the period of time that enables us to:

  • fulfil our legal obligations, including legal retention periods;
  • initiate, investigate or defend against legal claims;
  • address your questions, requests or complaints; and
  • keepourrecords for analysis and audit purposes.

7. How To Exercise Your Rights

We respect the rights granted to you under applicable data protection laws. Depending on your location and such applicable laws, these may include the right to access your personal data that we hold about you, to rectify or erase certain personal data, to restrict processing of your personal data and to get an electronic copy of your personal data for purposes of transmitting it to another company. These rights may be subject to certain limitations or restrictions as allowed or imposed by applicable laws, if this is the case we will let you know in our communications with you.

In addition, where we rely on our legitimate interest to process your personal data, you have the right to object to such processing, wholly or partly, on grounds related to your particular situation and in accordance with the laws applicable to you. For instance, depending on your country this may include a right to opt-out to marketing communications via an opt-out link in the respective marketing message.

Where we rely on your consent to process your personal data, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time.

To exercise your rights, please send an email to james@voyago.ai.

You are also entitled to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.
