Privacy & Cookies Policy

(Last Updated May 24, 2018)

 

MWS HK Limited, doing business as SimOptions (www.simoptions.com), recognizes the importance of your privacy.  This privacy policy tells you what personal information we collect and how we use it. SimOptions may change this privacy policy from time to time, in its sole discretion, as discussed in section ‘9. Changes to This Policy’ below. By registering an account or otherwise using or visiting any SimOptions website, application, product, software, tool, data feed, and/or service (collectively the «Service»), you understand and agree to the terms of this policy.  Please read this policy carefully.

If you have an unresolved privacy or data use concern that we have not addressed satisfactorily, please contact us directly at [email protected] or find more information under section ‘7. How Does A User Change Or Update Information’.

SimOptions is committed to your privacy. This privacy notice explains how we collect, use, disclose, retain, and protect your personal information.

A few key principles regarding GDPR

  • A clear purpose: the controller must specifically inform the customer of the use he will make of his personal data by collecting them
  • Relevant data: the controller must only collect data that is strictly necessary for his treatment; this is the principle of minimizing collection
  • The retention period: the personal data must be kept enough time to the controller to achieve its purpose; beyond that time, the data must be deleted
  • The rights of individuals: individuals can exercise their rights over the personal data held by the controller: access, rectification or deletion

1. What Information Do We Collect?

1.1 Personally-Identifiable Information

We may collect personally identifiable information when you specifically and knowingly provide it to us, for example when you sign up for our newsletter or chat, create an account, request more information on our contact us page, respond to a survey or questionnaire and provide personal information such as your email address, name, phone number or other information. Where applicable, personally identifiable information includes personal data as defined in applicable law.

This Privacy Policy does not apply to the privacy practices of third parties that we do not own or control, including but not limited to any third party websites, services, applications, online resources to which this Site may link or otherwise reference (collectively Third Party Services or TPS) that you may access through the Services. For example, the Services utilize the Facebook API Services as a TPS, and you are agreeing to be bound by the Facebook Terms of Service,  Privacy Policy and API Services Terms of Service when engaging Facebook content and services through the Service. We take no responsibility for the content or privacy practices of any TPS. We encourage you to carefully review the privacy policies of any TPS you access.

SimOptions does not consider personally identifiable information to include information that has been anonymized so that it does not allow a third party to identify a specific individual. We collect and use your personally-identifiable information to provide the services, operate and improve our service, provide customer service, perform research and analysis aimed at improving our products, service and technology, and display content that is customized to your interests and preferences.

You may always choose not to provide personally identifiable information, but if you choose so, certain parts of the Service may not be available to you. If you have registered an account with us, you will have agreed to provide your personally identifiable information in order to access the services. This consent provides us with the legal basis we require under applicable law to process your data. You maintain the right to withdraw such consent at any time. If you do not agree to our use of your personal data in line with this policy, please do not use our Services.

1.2 Sensitive Personal Data

Subject to the following paragraph, we ask that you do not send us, and you do not disclose, any sensitive personal data (e.g., social security numbers, information related to racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religion or other beliefs, health, biometrics or genetic characteristics, criminal background or trade union membership) on or through the services or otherwise to us.

If you send or disclose any sensitive personal data to us when you submit content to the services, you consent to our processing and use of such sensitive personal data in accordance with this policy. If you do not consent to our processing and use of such sensitive personal data, you must not submit such content to us. Please note that even if these information are provided, we will not store them anywhere on our side.

1.3 Non-Personally-Identifiable Information

We may collect and aggregate non-personally identifiable information which is information which does not permit you to be identified or identifiable either by itself or in combination with other information available to a third party.  This information may include information such as a website that referred you to us, your IP address, browser type and language, hardware types, geographic location, and access times and durations. We also may collect navigational information, including information about the service content or pages you view, the links you click, and other actions taken in connection with the service. We use this information to analyze usage patterns as part of making improvements to the Service.

We use two broad categories of cookies: (1) first party cookies, served directly by us to your computer or mobile device, which are used only by us to recognize your computer or mobile device when it revisits any site or application that is party of the Services; and (2) third party cookies, which are served by service providers on sites or applications and can be used by such service providers to recognize your computer or mobile device when it visits other websites.
