To clear any doubts, we may use Personal Data described above or any other Personal Data only at your request and consent for particularly-tailored purposes you may require from us.
In all cases when we transfer your Personal Data to other persons, we are confident that your Personal Data is protected and used only for the purposes specified in this Privacy Policy. We achieve such safety by using only certified services and products, signing agreements on protection of Personal Data with contractors and partners, as well as taking technical measures to ensure the data is protected when stored and used, and also while being processed and transferred.
To provide our Services, in accordance with the purposes set out above, we may transfer and store the Personal Data that we collect from you to a destination outside of the European Economic Area (“EEA”), mostly to one of our partners or to one of the third parties with which we work with.
We transfer the Personal Data to one of our partners or to one of the third parties with which we work with, outside the EEA, to the extent such transfer is needed to properly provide the services to you.
In order to provide high-quality services, TeQatlas hires people, enters into agreements with private entrepreneurs and partners, also cooperates with other services providers, companies and organizations. For these reasons, some of your Personal Data can be passed on to the persons mentioned above.
TeQatlas has contractors in other countries. Your Personal Data may be available to our contractors and partners in the jurisdictions outside the European Union. You may be sure that the transfer of your data to the recipients in other countries is secured and compliant with the applicable data protection laws.
Specifically, we may share your information with these third parties in the following limited circumstances:
We take information security very seriously. We work hard to protect the Personal Information you provide us from loss, misuse, or unauthorized access. We use a range of physical, electronic and managerial measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk of Personal Data processing.
These measures include:
The security of data transmitted over the internet (including by e-mail) cannot be guaranteed and carries the risk of access and interception. You should not send us any Personal Data by open/unsecure channels over the internet.
Please note that no electronic transmission, storage, or processing of Personal Information can be entirely secure. We cannot guarantee that the security measures we have in place to safeguard Personal Information will never be defeated or fail, or that those measures will always be sufficient or effective. Therefore, although we are committed to protecting your privacy, we do not promise, and you should not expect that your data and/or information will always remain private or secure.
TeQatlas stores Personal Data during the period of the Services provision under the Terms of Use, and for 24 months upon the end of our cooperation (“Retention Period”). In any case, your Personal Data will be stored by TeQatlas no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which the Personal Data is processed.
You may access, delete and modify Your Content at any time, the TeQatlas does not store any back-ups of Your Content you have voluntarily deleted. However, when you access the data on the Service (e.g. a publication, comment or attachments to a publication or comment), a copy of that data is copied to that user’s local computer (called “caching”). Caching is used to improve the speed of the Service when you repeatedly access graphics or data during a session. Once pages and/or data have been cached on your local computer that data is beyond the control of TeQatlas and may be accessible to anyone with access to your computer.
You assume all risk and liability associated with any data cached to your computer. We strongly recommend that you empty your web browser cache when you log out of a Platform session to ensure that any cached files from your session are deleted from your computer.

After the expiration of retention period, TeQatlas shall terminate the processing of your Personal Data or pseudonymize such data, unless stated otherwise under applicable laws.

If you are our current or potential client subscribed to the newsletters, we may have the following Personal Data: name, surname, email address, company, title, and a phone number in the newsletters database. TeQatlas provides those subscribed with the possibility to opt-out.
However, you cannot opt-out from the emails that are essential for your activity at the Platform and are sent to you directly by TeQatlas, not for marketing, but for communication purposes. These may include communications regarding issues with your account, other important information.
