How Do We Use Your Email Address?
By
submitting your email address on this website/app, you agree to receive emails
from us. You can cancel your participation in any of these email lists at any
time by clicking on the opt-out link or other unsubscribe option that is
included in the respective email. We only send emails to people who have
authorized us to contact them, either directly, or through a third party. We do
not send unsolicited commercial emails, because we hate spam as much as you do.
By submitting your email address, you also agree to allow us to use your email
address for customer audience targeting on sites like Facebook, where we
display custom advertising to specific people who have opted-in to receive
communications from us. Email addresses submitted only through the order
processing page will be used for the sole purpose of sending you information
and updates pertaining to your order. If, however, you have provided the same
email to us through another method, we may use it for any of the purposes
stated in this Policy. Note: If at any time you would like to unsubscribe from
receiving future emails, we include detailed unsubscribe instructions at the
bottom of each email.
How Long Do We Keep Your Information?
We
keep your information only so long as we need it to provide Si mart to
you and fulfill the purposes described in this policy. This is also the case
for anyone that we share your information with and who carries out services on
our behalf. When we no longer need to use your information and there is no need
for us to keep it to comply with our legal or regulatory obligations, we’ll
either remove it from our systems or depersonalize it so that we can’t identify
you.
How Do We Protect Your Information?
We
implement a variety of security measures to maintain the safety of your
personal information when you place an order or enter, submit, or access your
personal information. We offer the use of a secure server. All supplied
sensitive/credit information is transmitted via Secure Socket Layer (SSL)
technology and then encrypted into our Payment gateway providers database only
to be accessible by those authorized with special access rights to such
systems, and are required to keep the information confidential. After a
transaction, your private information (credit cards, social security numbers,
financials, etc.) is never kept on file. We cannot, however, ensure or warrant
the absolute security of any information you transmit to Si mart or
guarantee that your information on the Service may not be accessed, disclosed,
altered, or destroyed by a breach of any of our physical, technical, or
managerial safeguards.
Could my information be transferred to other
countries?
Si
mart is incorporated in Bangladesh. Information collected via our
website, through direct interactions with you, or from use of our help services
may be transferred from time to time to our offices or personnel, or to third
parties, located throughout the world, and may be viewed and hosted anywhere in
the world, including countries that may not have laws of general applicability
regulating the use and transfer of such data. To the fullest extent allowed by
applicable law, by using any of the above, you voluntarily consent to the
trans-border transfer and hosting of such information.
Is the information collected through the Si
mart Service secure?
We
take precautions to protect the security of your information. We have physical,
electronic, and managerial procedures to help safeguard, prevent unauthorized
access, maintain data security, and correctly use your information. However,
neither people nor security systems are foolproof, including encryption
systems. In addition, people can commit intentional crimes, make mistakes or
fail to follow policies. Therefore, while we use reasonable efforts to protect
your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. If
applicable law imposes any non-disclaimable duty to protect your personal
information, you agree that intentional misconduct will be the standard used
to measure our compliance with that duty.
Can I update or correct my information?
The
rights you have to request updates or corrections to the information Si mart collects depend on your relationship with Si mart. Personnel may update
or correct their information as detailed in our internal company employment
policies.
Customers
have the right to request the restriction of certain uses and disclosures of
personally identifiable information as follows. You can contact us in
order to (1) update or correct your personally identifiable information, (2)
change your preferences with respect to communications and other information
you receive from us, or (3) delete the personally identifiable information
maintained about you on our systems (subject to the following paragraph),
by canceling your account. Such updates, corrections, changes, and
deletions will have no effect on other information that we maintain or
information that we have provided to third parties in accordance with this
Privacy Policy prior to such update, correction, change, or deletion. To protect
your privacy and security, we may take reasonable steps (such as requesting a
unique password) to verify your identity before granting you profile access or
making corrections. You are responsible for maintaining the secrecy of your
unique password and account information at all times.
You
should be aware that it is not technologically possible to remove each and
every record of the information you have provided to us from our system. The
need to back up our systems to protect information from inadvertent loss means
that a copy of your information may exist in a non-erasable form that will be
difficult or impossible for us to locate. Promptly after receiving your
request, all personal information stored in databases we actively use, and
other readily searchable media will be updated, corrected, changed, or deleted,
as appropriate, as soon as and to the extent reasonably and technically
practicable.
If
you are an end-user and wish to update, delete, or receive any information we
have about you, you may do so by contacting the organization of which you are a
customer.

you are a a-Si mart worker or applicant, we collect the information you

You
may contact us in order to (1) update or correct your information, (2) change
your preferences with respect to communications and other information you
receive from us, or (3) receive a record of the information we have relating to
you. Such updates, corrections, changes, and deletions will have no effect on
other information that we maintain or information that we have provided to
third parties in accordance with this Privacy Policy prior to such update,
correction, change or deletion.

reserve the right to transfer information to a third party in the event of a

similar proceeding, provided that the third party agrees to adhere to the terms
of this Privacy Policy.

otherwise. Any information relating to you that we provide to our Corporate
Affiliates will be treated by those Corporate Affiliates in accordance with the
terms of this Privacy Policy.
