Legal basis for processing your personal information
We will only process your information where we have a legal basis to do so. The legal basis will depend on the purposes for which we have collected and use the personal information. In almost every case the legal basis will be one of the following:
Consent: For example, where you have provided your consent to receive certain marketing from us. You can withdraw your consent at any time, including by clicking on the “unsubscribe” link at the bottom of any marketing email we send you.
Our legitimate business interests: Where it is necessary for us to understand our customers, promote our services and operate effectively as a provider of children’s content and related services, provided in each case that this is done in a legitimate way which does not unduly affect your child’s privacy and other rights.
Compliance with law: Where we are subject to a legal obligation and need to use your personal information in order to comply with that obligation.
Where we store your personal information
The personal information that we collect may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside Hong Kong, including countries which have less strict, or no, data protection laws.
Whenever we transfer your information as described in the paragraph above, we will take reasonable steps to ensure that adequate safeguards are in place to protect such information and to make sure it is treated securely and in accordance with this privacy policy. In these cases, we rely on approved data transfer mechanisms (such as the EU “Standard Contractual Clauses” and the EU-US “Privacy Shield”) to ensure your information is subject to adequate safeguards in the recipient country.
How we keep your personal information
We take steps to ensure that the information we collect is retained for only as long as it is necessary for the purpose for which it was collected. After this period, it will be deleted or in some cases anonymised.
Where we have collected information based on your consent and we have no other lawful basis to continue with that processing, if you subsequently withdraw your consent then we will delete your information. However, please note that where you unsubscribe from our marketing communications, we will keep a record of your email address to ensure we do not send you marketing emails in future.
