PERSONAL DATA (PRIVACY) ORDINANCE
- PRIVACY POLICY STATEMENT |
|
GENERAL |
|
This policy statement provides information
on the obligations and policies of VICTON REGISTRATIONS
LIMITED , its subsidiaries, affiliates, and associated
companies (the "Company") under the
Hong Kong SAR Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance
1995 - Cap.486 (the "Ordinance").
Although this policy specifically addresses the
Company's obligations in respect of the laws of
the Hong Kong SAR, the Company believes the principles
embedded in the Ordinance are equal to any in
the world in respect of the protections they provide
to an individual. As such, the Company undertakes
to apply, where practicable, those principles
and the processes set out herein to its operations
globally.
Where the Company's operations are subject to
privacy legislation other than that of Hong Kong
SAR, then this policy shall be applied so far
as practicable and consistent with such local
legislation. For further details on the Company's
compliance with the Ordinance and any other privacy
legislation, please contact the Company's Privacy
Compliance Officer at the address listed below.
Throughout this policy, our use of the term "personal
data" has the meaning ascribed to it by the
Ordinance. |
|
OUR CORPORATE POLICY |
|
The Company shall fully comply with the obligations
and requirements of the Ordinance. The Company's
officers, management, and members of staff shall,
at all times, respect the confidentiality of and
endeavor to keep safe any and all personal data
collected and/or stored and/or transmitted and/or
used for, or on behalf of, the Company.
The Company shall endeavor to ensure all collection
and/or storage and/or transmission and/or usage
of personal data by the Company shall be done
in accordance with the obligations and requirements
of the Ordinance.
Where an individual legitimately requests access
to and/or correction of personal data relating
to the individual, held by the Company, then the
Company shall provide and/or correct that data
in accordance with the times and manner stipulated
within the Ordinance. |
|
ACCURACY OF PERSONAL DATA |
|
Where possible, we will validate data provided
using generally accepted practices and guidelines.
This includes the use of check sum verification
on some numeric fields such as account numbers
or credit card numbers. In some instances, we
are able to validate the data provided against
pre-existing data held by the Company. In some
cases, as per the requirements of the Ordinance,
the Company is required to see original documentation
before we may use the personal data such as with
Personal Identifiers and/or proof of address.
Although we do not currently provide online access
to and correction of personal data held by the
Company, we fully comply with the "Rights
of Access and Correction" obligations of
the Ordinance. Please refer to the section titled
"Access and Correction of Personal Data "
below for details on how you can obtain and correct
any personal data relating to you that we may
hold. |
|
RETENTION OF PERSONAL DATA |
|
The Company will destroy any personal data
it may hold in accordance with our internal retention
policy. The policy states that:
(a) |
Personal data will only be retained for
as long as is necessary to fulfil the original
or directly related purpose for which it was
collected, unless the personal data is also
retained to satisfy any applicable statutory
or contractual obligations; and |
|
|
(b) |
Personal data are purged from the Company's
electronic, manual, and other filing systems
in accordance with specific schedules based
on the above criteria and the Company's internal
procedures. |
|
|
DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL DATA |
|
All personal data held by the Company will
be kept confidential but the Company may, where
such disclosure is necessary to satisfy the purpose,
or a directly related purpose, for which the data
was collected provide such information to the
following parties:
(a) |
Any subsidiaries, holding companies, associated
companies, or affiliates of, or companies
controlled by, or under common control with
the Company; |
|
|
(b) |
Any person or company who is acting for
or on behalf of the Company, or jointly with
the Company, in respect of the purpose or
a directly related purpose for which the data
was provided; |
|
|
(c) |
Any other person or company who is under
a duty of confidentiality to the Company and
has undertaken to keep such information confidential,
provided such person or company has a legitimate
right to such information; and |
|
|
(d) |
Any financial institutions, charge or credit
card issuing companies, credit information
or reference bureaux, or collection agencies
necessary to establish and support the payment
of any services being requested. |
Personal data may also be disclosed to any person
or persons that have a right under the Ordinance
to gain access to such information provided they
are able to prove their authority to access such
information. For example, if the Company were
served with a court order demanding certain customer
information then the Company would disclose the
information to the duly appointed officer of the
court or such other persons as the court orders. |
|
TRANSFER OF PERSONAL DATA OUTSIDE
OF HONG KONG |
|
At times it may be necessary and/or prudent for
the Company to transfer certain personal data to
places outside of the Hong Kong SAR in order to
carry out the purposes, or directly related purposes,
for which the personal data were collected. Where
such a transfer is performed, it will be done in
compliance with the requirements of the Ordinance. |
|
SECURITY OF PERSONAL DATA |
|
Physical records containing personal data are
securely stored in locked areas and/or containers
when not in use. Computer data are stored on
computer systems and storage media to which access
is strictly controlled and/or are located within
restricted areas.
Access to records and data without appropriate
management authorization are strictly prohibited.
Authorizations are granted only on a "need
to know" basis that is commensurate with
an individual's Company responsibilities and their
training.
Records of the Company are under the control
of assigned information officers who are responsible
to ensure the transfer of or access to information
is legitimate and complies with the Ordinance.
Audit records may be produced to validate data
modifications in order to verify the data's integrity.
There may be violations logging processes for
investigation of any unauthorized attempt to access
information. |
|

DATA |

have the right to:
(a) |
Check whether the Company holds any personal
data relating to them and, if so, obtain copies
of such data; |

data relating to them which is inaccurate
for the purpose for which it is being used;
