3.2 Data Protection Principles
AstraOne has adopted the following principles to govern its collection, use, retention, transfer, disclosure and destruction of Personal Data:
Principle 1: Lawfulness, Fairness and Transparency
Personal Data shall be processed lawfully, fairly and in a transparent manner in relation to the Data Subject. This means, AstraOne must tell the Data Subject what Processing will occur (transparency), the Processing must match the description given to the Data Subject (fairness), and it must be for one of the purposes specified in the applicable Data Protection regulation (lawfulness).
Principle 2: Purpose Limitation
Personal Data shall be collected for specified, explicit and legitimate purposes and not further processed in a manner that is incompatible with those purposes. This means AstraOne must specify exactly what the Personal Data collected will be used for and limit the Processing of that Personal Data to only what is necessary to meet the specified purpose.
Principle 3: Data Minimisation
Personal Data shall be adequate, relevant and limited to what is necessary in relation to the purposes for which they are processed. This means AstraOne must not store any Personal Data beyond what is strictly required.
Principle 4: Accuracy
Personal Data shall be accurate and, kept up to date. This means AstraOne must have in place processes for identifying and addressing out-of-date, incorrect and redundant Personal Data.
Principle 5: Storage Limitation
Personal Data shall be kept in a form which permits identification of Data Subjects for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which the Personal Data is processed. This means hybrid.ai must, wherever possible, store Personal Data in a way that limits or prevents identification of the Data Subject.
Principle 6: Integrity & Confidentiality
Personal Data shall be processed in a manner that ensures appropriate security of the Personal Data, including protection against unauthorized or unlawful Processing, and against accidental loss, destruction or damage. AstraOne must use appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure the integrity and confidentiality of Personal Data is maintained at all times.
Principle 7: Accountability
The Data Controller shall be responsible for, and be able to demonstrate compliance. This means AstraOne must demonstrate that the six Data Protection Principles (outlined above) are met for all Personal Data for which it is responsible.

If you have given us explicit permission to do so, we may from time to time provide your name and contact information to selected partners whom we believe may provide services or products you would find useful. For example, if you decide to order a print of one of your images and click on the button or link that initiates the "handoff" to our third party print partner, we would provide user and image information to them to assist you in the ordering process. Sometimes you may give implicit consent, such as when you send us a message through our support desk or by e-mail to which you would reasonably expect us to reply. Except where you have consented to our use of your information for a specific purpose, we do not use your information in any way that would identify you personally.

Each hybrid.ai Entity will obtain Personal Data only by lawful and fair means and, where appropriate with the knowledge and Consent of the individual concerned. Where a need exists to request and receive the Consent of an individual prior to the collection, use or disclosure of their Personal Data, AstraOne is committed to seeking such Consent. AstraOne business representatives shall establish a system for obtaining and documenting Data Subject Consent for the collection, Processing, and/or transfer of their Personal Data.
Each AstraOne Entity will refer to OpenRTB Advisory – GDRP in order to receive Consent from Third Parties. This advisory, therefore, focuses on how active versions of OpenRTB will signal GDPR applicability and convey the consent string, which is treated as a single unit of data to be conveyed throughout a real-time bidding transaction.

- The Data Subject already has the information
- A legal exemption applies to the requirements for disclosure and/or Consent.
The disclosures may be given orally, electronically or in writing. If given orally, the person making the disclosures should use a suitable script or form approved in advance by the Office of Data Protection. The associated receipt or form should be retained, along with a record of the facts, date, content, and method of disclosure.
3.6 Data Use
3.6.1 Data Processing
AstraOne 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 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 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 would then provide their details to Third Parties for marketing purposes. Each AstraOne Entity will Process Personal Data in accordance with all applicable laws and applicable contractual obligations. More specifically, AstraOne 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).
Moreover, your data can be processed or used to monitor for and prevent any fraudulent activity, and ensure systems and processes work properly and securely.
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 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.
3.6.2 Special Categories of Data
AstraOne 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 defense of legal claims.
- The Processing is specifically authorized or required by law.
- The Processing is necessary to protect the vital interests of the Data Subject or of another natural person where the Data Subject is physically or legally incapable of giving consent.
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, Meta Privacy will adopt additional protection measures. Each Meta Privacy Entity may also adopt additional measures to address local custom or social expectation over the Processing of Special Categories of Data.
3.6.3 Children’s Online Data and Privacy Protection:
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 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.
We take children’s privacy seriously. Our website complies with the Children’s data protection provisions of Data Protection Act 2018 of the United Kingdom, EU GDPR, Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”). When it comes to the collection of personal information from children under the age of majority years old, the Data Protection Act 2018, GDPR and Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) puts parents in control. Complying with the UK’s Data Protection Act, 2018 and the Information Commissioner’s Officer (ICO)’s direction, we don’t knowingly collect any personal information directly from the children under age of majority and in no way we don’t share any Children’s data to any third party collected through our website. And we don’t track any children data in any context.
We may market to and collect information of children under majority under parental control. We don't let third-parties, including ad networks or plug-ins; collect any personal information from children under majority. When any user under the age of majority wants to register on “ASTRAONE”, we will ask to put the parents’ email address. “ASTRAONE” will send a consent letter to such email address to get parental consent to use our platform.
We may practice Email Consent option to get parental consent. In the email, we may explain what information we are collecting, how we plan to use it, how the parent can provide consent, and how the parent can revoke consent. If we do not receive parental consent within a reasonable time, we will delete the parent contact information and any other information collected from the child in connection with that activity.
We instruct children under the age of majority to insert their parent's or guardian's email address upon registration. An email confirming registration will be sent to the address used with a parental consent letter. If you believe your child is participating in an activity that collects personal information and you or another parent/guardian have NOT received an email providing notice or seeking your consent, please contact us at [email protected] to provide us permission or request that we delete the child's account and any associated information. We will not use parent emails provided for parental consent purposes to market to the parent unless the parent has expressly opted into email marketing or has separately participated in an activity that allows for such email contact.
If any parent wishes to remove their child's information please send a removal request to [email protected] upon your request we will remove all the collected information from your children immediately.
3.6.4 Data Quality
Each AstraOne 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 measures adopted by AstraOne to ensure data quality include:
- Correcting Personal Data known to be incorrect, inaccurate, incomplete, ambiguous, misleading or outdated, even if the Data Subject does not request rectification.
- Keeping Personal Data only for the period necessary to satisfy the permitted uses or applicable statutory retention period.
- 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:

3.6.5 Digital Marketing
