7. Data Security

The security of your personal data is important to us. We take reasonable efforts to secure and protect the privacy, accuracy, and reliability of your information and to protect it from loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. We implement security measures as we deem appropriate and consistent with industry standards. As no data security protocol is impenetrable, we cannot guarantee the security of our systems or databases, nor can we guarantee that personal data we collect about you will not be breached, intercepted, destroyed, accessed, or otherwise disclosed without authorization. Accordingly, any information you transfer to or from Services is provided at your own risk. Please do your part to help us keep your information secure. Services Account information is protected by a password. It is important that you protect against unauthorized access to your account and information by choosing your password carefully and by keeping your password and computer secure, such as by signing out after using the Services. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and Services Account and are fully responsible for all activities that occur under your password or Services Account. We specifically reserve the right to terminate your access to the Services and any contract you have with us related to the Services in the event it learns or suspects you have disclosed your Services Account or password information to an unauthorized third party. We make reasonable efforts to ensure that our other Service Providers have implemented physical, electronic, and procedural security measures to assist with safeguarding your personal data and to help protect against unauthorized access and disclosure. Only our authorized personnel and our Service Providers who perform legitimate business functions for Formulex are authorized to access your personal data. Notwithstanding our efforts, the Internet has inherent security risks. Formulex cannot promise, and you should not expect, that your personal data, personal searches, and other communications will always remain secure. You should take care with regard to how you handle and disclose your personal data or any username or password that you are required to use to access services on our websites.

8. Data Integrity

Formulex will only process personal data in a way that is compatible with and relevant for the purpose for which it was collected or authorized by you. To the extent necessary for those purposes, Formulex will take reasonable steps to ensure that personal data is accurate, complete, current and reliable for its intended use. The United States, European Economic Area (“EEA”) Member States, and other countries all have different laws relating to privacy and data protection. When your information is moved from your home country to another country, the laws and rules that protect your personal data in the country to which your information is transferred may be different from those in the country in which you live. For example, the circumstances in which law enforcement can access personal data may vary from country to country. In particular, if your information is in the United States, it may be accessed by government authorities in accordance with U.S. law. Please be advised information we collect about you via the Services may be transferred, processed and/or accessed by us in the United States, or another country where we or our Service Providers operate. Please be aware that the privacy laws and standards in certain countries, including the rights of authorities to access your personal data, may differ from those that apply in the country in which you reside. If you are located outside the United States and choose to allow us to collect information about you, please be aware that we may transfer your personal data to the United States and process and store it there. We will transfer personal data only to those countries to which we are permitted by law to transfer personal data, and we will take steps to ensure that your personal data continues to enjoy appropriate protections. In certain situations, we may be required to disclose personal data in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements.

9. Children and Data Collection

Formulex’s websites are general audience websites. Formulex’s website content is not directed toward children who are under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children or minors. If Formulex or its Service Providers become aware that a child or minor has provided us with personal data without parental consent, that information will be deleted from our databases. If you have questions about personal data that may have been submitted by a child, please email us at contact@formulex.in.

10. Enforcement

Formulex uses a self-assessment approach to assure compliance with this privacy policy and periodically verifies that the policy is accurate, comprehensive for the information intended to be covered, prominently displayed, completely implemented and accessible and in conformity with the concerned laws of different countries. We encourage interested persons to raise any concerns using the contact information provided and we will investigate and attempt to resolve any complaints or disputes regarding the use and disclosure of personal data in accordance with the principles. If a complaint or dispute cannot be resolved through our internal process, we agree to dispute resolution using (an independent resourced mechanism) as a third party resolution provider.

11. Updates

Formulex may update this privacy policy from time to time, and you should take the time to review it each time that you visit one of our Services. The most current version of this privacy policy will govern our use of your information. You may contact us to obtain prior versions.
