Lawful bases 

 

We will only use personal data when the law allows us to (i.e., where we have obtained your consent or where the Personal Data Protection Act 2012 or any other written law in Singapore requires or authorises us to without your consent). The following are some common circumstances where we may use your personal data without your consent: 

 

  • Where it is in our legitimate interests (or those of a third party such as a local distribution partner) and our legitimate interests (or those of the third party) outweigh any adverse effect on you; or
  • Where it is necessary for any investigation or proceedings. 

In some circumstances, we may ask for your express consent to use your personal data for a specific purpose. In particular, we will obtain your consent before we send you any email marketing, including newsletters, personalised offers and advertisements which we think might interest you. 

You may unsubscribe from our email communications by following the instructions in any email that we send you, or you can withdraw your consent and request us to remove your personal data at any time by emailing us at dpo@janicompany.com . 

 

How long do we store personal data?

Your personal data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required for the purposes for which it was collected. The criteria we use to determine the retention period of personal data are: (i) the respective statutory retention period; (ii) our contractual and/or business relationships with you; (iii) (potential) disputes; and (iv) any guidelines issued by relevant regulators. For example, due to commercial and tax regulations, we are obliged to save your address, payment data as far as processed by us, and data related to your order for a certain period of time.

 

However, we may continue to store your data after the appropriate retention periods expire if necessary for the fulfilment of a contract, the initiation of a contract or to protect or defend our position or that of a third party.

 

You may request erasure of your personal data by contacting us as indicated below in the Your Privacy Rights section below.

 

Personal data shared with third parties

Based on the purposes detailed in the above section “Why We Collect Personal Data,” your data may be passed on to the following categories of recipients who may be located outside Singapore:

 

  • our affiliated companies and distribution partners, depending on your location; 
  • service providers, e.g. for the provision and hosting of the website, provision of delivery services to you, processing of payments from you and provision of customised and tailored services to you; 
  • potential purchasers as part of a sale, merger or acquisition, or other transfer of all or part of our assets including as part of a bankruptcy proceeding; 
  • our professional advisors, lawyers, accountants and auditors; 
  • governmental or regulatory authorities, pursuant to a court order, or other legal process or as otherwise required or requested by law, regulation, or government authority programmes, or to protect our rights or the rights or safety of third parties; and
  • any recipient to whom you have consented or as otherwise disclosed at the time of data collection or sharing.
