02. Personal Information

When personal information is collected, we may inform user at the point of collection the purpose for the collection. LaserLock does not intend to transfer user's personal information to third parties without user's consent, except under the limited conditions described under the section " Information Sharing and Disclosure " or elsewhere in these Terms.

If user chooses to provide us with his/her personal information, we may transfer that information, within LaserLock or to LaserLock's partners or LaserLock third party partners (3P's), including across borders and from user's country or jurisdiction to other countries or jurisdictions around the world.

In certain circumstances LaserLock may seek additional personal information such as photocopies of identification documents or credit cards for example for identity verification, for payments or fraud prevention purposes. Where such additional information is submitted to LaserLock in connection with this site, it shall also be regarded as "Personal Data". LaserLock may share, make available or transmit Personal Data to other departments and divisions in LaserLock and LaserLock partners within Europe and (subject to LaserLock's strict compliance with applicable data protection laws) overseas.

By submitting information via this site or any related registration process:

  User consent to the processing of data personal to user, such as user's name and title, address, telephone number, contact details and other personal details ("Personal Data"), in accordance with the Terms notified in the "Personal Data" (or similarly entitled) part of the registration/data input form or telephone registration process for this site.

  User acknowledge that the processing of user's Personal Data is necessary and/or desirable for the personalisation of user's visit to this site and/or the granting and controlling of access to this site or parts thereof to registered users or paying subscribers and user consent to such processing.

We will always give user the opportunity to "opt out" of receiving direct marketing or market research information. This means we assume user have given us user's consent to collect and use his/her information in accordance with this Policy unless user take affirmative action to indicate that user do not consent, if provided, for instance by clicking or checking the appropriate option or box at the point of collection. In some cases, when applicable, we might provide user with the opportunity to "opt in." This means we will require user's affirmative action to indicate user's consent before we use his/her information for purposes other than the purpose for which it was submitted.

LaserLock will not disclose Personal Data to entities and persons, other than LaserLock partners and LaserLock third party partner (3P's), without user's consent, except in the cases below. Personal Data may be disclosed to LaserLock partners and 3P's to enable:

02. Compliance with legal obligations to which LaserLock or any LaserLock partner or 3P is subject. Personal Data may be disclosed to LaserLock partners and 3P's to enable them to provide services for or on behalf of, or at the direction of, LaserLock or LaserLock partners and 3P's. In such cases, LaserLock takes measures to ensure that the LaserLock partners and 3P's comply with LaserLock's privacy policy and that such recipients:

a. Do not use Personal Data other than for the purposes permitted;

b. Obtain and process Personal Data only on condition that they secure that Personal Data from unauthorised use and adopt and comply with similarly stringent policies and Terms on Personal Data protection and use; and

c. Comply strictly with applicable laws.

Where Personal Data is provided in connection with transactions connected with this site involving payments (such as payment for subscriptions), LaserLock may transmit Personal Data to 3P's who are credit/fraud probability assessment agencies or 3P's who are otherwise involved in crime prevention, in order to process the acceptability of user's tendered credit card or other payment methods or to combat crime, and/or to credit card and other payment processing agencies. Personal Data transmitted to those 3P's may need to be transferred to the United States of America or other places outside the European Economic Area, for processing and related purposes. Some agencies have advised that transmitted Personal Data will also be used to generate credit, risk or fraud possibility assessments for LaserLock and other third parties with whom user may enter into transactions.

LaserLock may use, process and disclose without restriction any anonymous or generic data (including statistics) in which user cannot be identified. User may request LaserLock to inform 3P's to whom Personal Data has been communicated of corrections or deletions to that Personal Data. If LaserLock does not have control of that Personal Data, LaserLock will use its reasonable efforts to communicate user's corrections and deletion requests. However, where Personal Data has been transferred to credit card payment and certain other agencies for payment processing, user may need to contact such agencies directly if user wish Personal Data transferred to those agencies to be rectified or deleted. LaserLock cannot assume, and excludes all, responsibility for rectifying or deleting Personal Data, which has been transferred (with user consent) to certain agencies such as credit or fraud probability assessment, and payment processing agencies that require and/or assume control of that data. LaserLock accepts no liability for any incorrect credit or other assessments generated by such 3P's, or any other consequences (including adverse credit ratings) of Personal Data disclosed and used as contemplated in the "Personal Data" (or similarly entitled) part of the registration/data input form or telephone registration process for this site, and these Terms.

Except for personal information of a user submitted by that user for registration and/or account opening purposes or (if applicable) personal information relating to other natural persons known to a user for inclusion in that user's online address book, LaserLock prohibits the uploading of any user content which discloses personal or private information concerning any individual or entity, including telephone number(s), e-mail or physical addresses, user account numbers, passwords and financial information. Where personal information relating to, or images of, another natural person are uploaded by a user for inclusion in that user's online address book, photo album (or for any other purpose), the user warrants that such person (the data subject) has given his or her consent to such submission and to the data processing that this involves and any other usage of such user content contemplated by these Terms or on this site.
