  If Personal Data is collected from someone other than the Data Subject, the Data Subject must be informed1 of the collection unless one of the following apply:
• The Data Subject has received the required information by other means.
• The information must remain confidential due to a professional secrecy obligation.
• A national law expressly provides for the collection, Processing or transfer of the Personal Data.

• 3.4 Data Use

• 3.4.1 Data Processing

• astraone.io provides targeted advertising services for our advertiser clients ("Advertisers"). When Identifiable Natural Person visits a website operated by an Advertiser or a third party site where we could serve an ad to you, we may collect some or all of the data described in 3.3.1. hybrid.ai uses that data as well as other data described below to help Advertisers provide ads to Identifiable Natural Persons that are more relevant to them.
• astraone.io uses the Personal Data of its Contacts for the following broad purposes:
  
  
  • The general running and business administration of hybrid.ai Entities.
  • To provide advertising services to astraone.io customers.
• The use of a Advertiser’s information should always be considered from their perspective and whether the use will be within their expectations or if they are likely to object. For example, it would clearly be within a Advertiser’s expectations that their details will be used by hybrid.ai to respond to a Advertiser request for information about the products and services on offer. However, it will not be within their reasonable expectations that astraone.io would then provide their details to Third Parties for marketing purposes. Each astraone.io Entity will Process Personal Data in accordance with all applicable laws and applicable contractual obligations. More specifically, astraone.io will not Process Personal Data unless at least one of the following requirements are met:
  
  
  • The Data Subject has given Consent to the Processing of their Personal Data for one or more specific purposes.
  • Processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the Data Subject is party or in order to take steps at the request of the Data Subject prior to entering into a contract.
  • Processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which the Data Controller is subject.
  • Processing is necessary in order to protect the vital interests of the Data Subject or of another natural person.
  • Processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the Data Controller.
  • Processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by the Data Controller or by a Third Party (except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the Data Subject, in particular where the Data Subject is a child).
• There are some circumstances in which Personal Data may be further processed for purposes that go beyond the original purpose for which the Personal Data was collected. When making a determination as to the compatibility of the new reason for Processing, guidance and approval must be obtained from the hybrid.ai representative before any such Processing may commence.
• In any circumstance where Consent has not been gained for the specific Processing in question, astraone.io will address the following additional conditions to determine the fairness and transparency of any Processing beyond the original purpose for which the Personal Data was collected:
  
  
  • Any link between the purpose for which the Personal Data was collected and the reasons for intended further Processing.
  • The context in which the Personal Data has been collected, in particular regarding the relationship between Data Subject and the Data Controller.
  • The nature of the Personal Data, in particular whether Special Categories of Data are being Processed, or whether Personal Data related to criminal convictions and offences are being Processed.
  • The possible consequences of the intended further Processing for the Data Subject.
  • The existence of appropriate safeguards pertaining to further Processing, which may include Encryption, Anonymisation or Pseudonymisation.

• 3.4.2 Special Categories of Data

• astraone.io will only Process Special Categories of Data (also known as sensitive data) where the Data Subject expressly consents to such Processing or where one of the following conditions apply:
  
  
  • The Processing relates to Personal Data which has already been made public by the Data Subject.
  • The Processing is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
  • The Processing is specifically authorised or required by law.

  • Further conditions, including limitations, based upon national law related to the Processing of genetic data, biometric data or data concerning health.
• In any situation where Special Categories of Data are to be Processed, prior approval must be obtained from the Office of Data Protection and the basis for the Processing clearly recorded with the Personal Data in question. Where Special Categories of Data are being Processed, MetaPrivacy will adopt additional protection measures. Each MetaPrivacy Entity may also adopt additional measures to address local custom or social expectation over the Processing of Special Categories of Data.

• 3.4.3 Children’s Data
• Children are unable to Consent to the Processing of Personal Data for information services. Consent must be sought from the person who holds parental responsibility over the child. However, it should be noted that where Processing is lawful under other grounds, Consent need not be obtained from the child or the holder of parental responsibility. Should any astraone.io Entity foresee a business need for obtaining parental consent for information society services offered directly to a child, guidance and approval must be obtained from the hybrid.ai representative before any Processing of a child’s Personal Data may commence.

• 3.4.4 Data Quality

• Each astraone.io Entity will adopt all necessary measures to ensure that the Personal Data it collects and Processes is complete and accurate in the first instance, and is updated to reflect the current situation of the Data Subject.

  • The removal of Personal Data if in violation of any of the Data Protection principles or if the Personal Data is no longer required.
  • Restriction, rather than deletion of Personal Data, insofar as:
    • a law prohibits erasure.
    • erasure would impair legitimate interests of the Data Subject.
    • the Data Subject disputes that their Personal Data is correct and it cannot be clearly ascertained whether their information is correct or incorrect.

Any astraone.io Entity wishing to carry out a digital marketing campaign without obtaining prior Consent from the Data Subject must first have it approved by astraone.io representative. Where Personal Data Processing is approved for digital marketing purposes, the Data Subject must be informed at the point of first contact that they have the right to object, at any stage, to having their data Processed for such purposes. If the Data Subject puts forward an objection, digital marketing related Processing of their Personal Data must cease immediately and their details should be kept on a suppression list with a record of their opt-out decision, rather than being completely deleted. It should be noted that where digital marketing is carried out in a ‘business to business’ context, there is no legal requirement to obtain an indication of Consent to carry out digital marketing to individuals provided that they are given the opportunity to opt-out.

• 3.5 Data Retention
• We retain the identifiable data we collect directly for targeting purposes for 12 months, after which time we employ measures to delete it. However for identifiable data that we hold on behalf of an Advertiser such as their email address list, we may retain it for a longer period and not delete it until we no longer require it to provide services to the Advertiser or the Advertiser asks us to delete it.
• Identifiable data collected for other purposes is held no longer than necessary for our business purposes or to meet legal requirements.
