Security

While Quexcel uses all reasonable efforts to safeguard your personal data, no security program is impenetrable, and criminals have been adept at circumventing widely adopted security safeguards. Accordingly you acknowledge that the use of the internet is not entirely secure and that you provide personal information to us at your own risk. Quexcel cannot therefore guarantee the security or integrity of any personal data that are transferred from you to Quexcel via the internet, either through our website or using e-mail. Any user or third party accessing Quexcel’s website or services is responsible for its own use of the website and the services.

Retention of Personal Data

We retain personal data we collect from you where we have an ongoing legitimate business need to do so (for example, to provide you with a service you have requested or to comply with applicable legal, tax or accounting requirements).

When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal data, we will either delete or anonymize it or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal data and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

Data Transfer

Quexcel is a global operating business. As a result, the personal data that we collect from you may be transferred to, and stored at, any of our partners and/or affiliates locations which may be inside or outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”). Data may also be processed by people around the world who work for use or for one of our suppliers/vendors.

By submitting your personal data, you agree to this transfer, storing or processing.

We have put in place a number of measures designed to protect data which is transferred from Europe to other countries, including appropriate security measures to safeguard your personal data.

The Quexcel office and its contractors abroad are held to protecting privacy sensitive data at least at a security level according to the strict General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
