We take the privacy rights of all our clients seriously and we adopt high standards when managing your data. We want you to know that you can share information with us safely and confidently. This privacy policy describes how we collect and process your personal data.

(v) send you details of our services.

Our legal grounds for processing your data are in relation to the above points for the delivery of a contract with you, and in relation to (iii) and (v) above, necessary for our legitimate interests to develop our products/services and grow our business and to recover monies owed.

We require all of these third parties to whom we transfer your data to respect the security of your personal data and to treat it in accordance with the law. They are only allowed to process your personal data on our instructions.

Some of our third-party providers are businesses outside of Singapore and the EEA, in countries which do not always offer the same levels of protection for your personal data. 

We do our best to ensure a similar degree of security by ensuring that contracts, codes of conduct or certification are in place which give your personal data the same protection it has within Singapore and Europe. 

If we are not able to do so, we will request your explicit consent to the transfer and you can withdraw this consent at any time.

We have security measures in place to prevent your personal and sensitive data from being lost or from being used, accessed, disclosed or altered in an unauthorised way. 

We limit access to your personal and sensitive data to third parties who have a business need to know such data. They will only process your personal and sensitive data on our instructions and are subject to a duty of confidentiality.

We have procedures to deal with suspected data breaches and will notify you and any applicable regulator where we are legally required to do so.

In certain circumstances, you can ask us to delete your data. See the section entitled ‘your rights’ below for more information.

We may anonymise your personal and sensitive data (so that you can no longer be identified from such data) for research or statistical purposes in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.

We will only keep your personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which we collected it. We may retain your data to satisfy any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. For example, we need to keep certain information about you for 6 years after you cease to be a client for tax purposes.

In the case of initial free consultations, should you decide not to proceed with the service offered any data collected will be deleted after two months. 

You have the right to ask us to delete the data we hold about you in certain circumstances. See section 6.
