How information is disclosed
Except as described in this Privacy Policy, Daktaro will not share, sell, or rent Personal Information with anyone without your permission or unless ordered by a court of law.
We work with third-party services in Bangladesh, Australia and the USA (such as our web host, data backup and payment provider) that we allow access to Personal Information, and may use it on our behalf strictly for the purposes for which they are engaged. We minimise the amount of personal data that is utilised by these services, and we have ensured that these services process your data in accordance with the appropriate regulations.
Daktaro Customers have the option of providing API keys to third-party apps, allowing the app to access the data (including Personal Information) in their Daktaro account. We are not responsible for the privacy policies and practices of these third-party services—you are responsible for reading and understanding their privacy policies if you wish to use their services.
In rare circumstances, we may be obliged to disclose Personal Information if disclosure is required to comply with the law, if we believe our Terms of Use, located at https://www.daktaro.com/terms-of-use, have been violated, if we believe it is necessary to protect our rights, or if the ownership and assets of Daktaro were to be transferred to another party.
The security of your Personal Information
We take security seriously. Data is encrypted, stored in state-of-the-art facilities, access is restricted to those who have a need to know, and we regularly review our technology to maintain security.
In the event that there is a breach and your Personal Information that we have collected directly is at risk, you will be notified within 72 hours of discovering the breach. You will be informed of what information is at risk, steps that we have taken to ensure your safety, and what action we are taking or have taken to rectify the breach. To the extent permissible at law, in the event that there is a breach and indirectly collected information is at risk, we will follow the same protocol, however the affected Customers (rather than the individuals) will be notified instead.
Access, correct or delete Personal Information about you
You can request access to the Personal Information you have provided to us, via email to connect@daktaro.com. This enables you to receive a copy of the data and to check that we are lawfully processing it.
If you think there’s a problem with the Personal Information we hold about you, you will either have the tools available to make these changes, or you can request a correction. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected (though we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us).
If you want to request erasure of your Personal Information, we'll take all reasonable steps to do so unless we are required to keep it for legal reasons, which will be notified to you, if applicable, at the time of your request. As we only collect information that is required, it is likely that revoking your consent will limit the functionality of your Daktaro account.
You may withdraw consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process your Personal Information. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent.
