Rejecting the use of our cookies may result in some features being disabled.

(1) Forit shall take appropriate steps to ensure that the overseas recipient is bound by legally enforceable obligations so as to provide to your transferred Personal Data a standard of protection that is at least comparable to that under applicable laws.

(2) Forit shall not provide or disclose your Personal Data to third parties outside of your country without your consent, except for the permitted situations below:

• you are expressly informed of the intended transfer of your Personal Data to the recipient, and you consent to such transfer;

Forit shall comply with all applicable laws and regulations on Personal Data.

Individuals in certain jurisdictions have legal rights to obtain confirmation of whether we hold Personal Data about them, to access Personal Data we hold about them (including, in some cases, in portable form), and to obtain its source, correction, purpose of collection, update, amendment or deletion in appropriate circumstances. They may also object to our uses or disclosures of Personal Data, request a restriction on its processing, or withdraw any consent, though such actions typically will not have retroactive effect. They also will not affect our ability to continue processing data in lawful ways. To exercise any of the rights or choices described above (or any other rights under applicable law), please contact us as described at the end of this Privacy Policy.

The rights and options described above are subject to limitations and exceptions under applicable law. We will respond to your requests to exercise your privacy rights in accordance with applicable law. We may request additional information from you to verify your identity and complete your request. If we deny your request, we will explain why. In some states in the United States, you have the right to appeal our denial, which you may exercise by responding to the message we send to you communicating our denial stating that you appeal our decision. In these cases, we will reconsider your request and then notify you of our decision.

Forit shall rely on Personal Data provided by you. Please update us on changes to your Personal Data by submitting a written notice to our Data Protection Officer so that we may ensure that your Personal Data is up to date.

Subject to applicable laws, Forit shall only retain your Personal Data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected.
