1.2. Automatic data collection

As with many other websites and mobile applications, as you navigate through and interact with our Website and App, we may use automatic data collection technologies to collect certain information about your equipment, browsing actions, and patterns, including:

• Details of your visits to our Website and App, including traffic data, location data, logs, language, date and time of access, frequency, and other communication data and the resources that you access and use on the Website and App. Information about your computer and internet connection, including your IP address, operating system, host domain, and browser type.

• Details of referring websites (URL). We also may use these technologies to collect information about your online activities over time and across third-party websites or other online services (behavioural tracking).

• Information about your computer, mobile device, and Internet connection, specifically the device’s unique identifier and telephone number and your IP address, operating system, browser type, mobile network information, and App version information.

• Information stored on your mobile device, including in other applications. This may include photographs, audio and video clips, and health information. This data will be used only to provide and improve our services, and will not be used or shared with third parties for marketing purposes.

• Real-time information about the location of your device.

​

The information we collect automatically is statistical data and may include personal information, or we may maintain it or associate it with personal information you provide to us or that we collect in other ways or receive from third parties. It helps us to improve our Website and App and to deliver better and more personalised service, including by enabling us to:

• Estimate our audience size and usage patterns.

• Forecast future needs, functions, and uses of our Website, App, and services.

• Better understand user satisfaction levels and experiences.

• Store information about your preferences, allowing us to customise our Website and

  App according to your individual interests.

• Speed up your searches.

• Recognize you when you return to our Website and App.

• In other ways to improve your experience and the quality of our Website, App, and

  services.

​

1.2. The technologies we use for automatic data collection

The technologies we use for this automatic data collection may include:

• Cookies. We and our service providers may use cookies to receive and store certain types of information whenever you interact with our Website and App through your computer or mobile device. A “cookie” is a small piece of data sent from a website and stored on the user’s computer by the user’s browser. Our Website and App use two types of cookies: Single-session (temporary or browser cookies) and multi-session (persistent or flash cookies). Temporary cookies last only as long as your web browser is open, and are used for technical purposes such as enabling better navigation through our Website and App. Once you close your browser, the cookie disappears. On your computer, you may refuse to accept browser cookies by activating the appropriate setting on your browser, and you may have similar capabilities on your mobile device in the preferences for your operating system or browser. However, if you select this setting you may be unable to access certain parts of our Website or use certain parts of our App. Unless you have adjusted your browser or operating system setting so that it will refuse cookies, our system will issue cookies when you direct your browser to our Website or use our App. Persistent cookies are stored on your computer for longer periods and are used for purposes including tracking the number of unique visitors to our Website and information about your preferences and navigation to, from, and on our Website and App, such as the number of views a page gets, how much time a user spends on a page, and other pertinent web statistics. Persistent cookies are not managed by the same browser setting as are used for temporary cookies. Cookies, by themselves, will not be used by Zoala to disclose your individual identity. This information identifies your browser, but not you, to our servers when you visit the Website and App.

• Pixel Tags. We and our service providers may also collect data by using “pixel tags,” “web beacons,” “clear GIFs,” or similar means (collectively, “pixel tags”) that allow us to know when you visit our Website and App. Through pixel tags, we obtain non-personal information or aggregate information that can be used to enhance your online experience and understand traffic patterns.

• Google Analytics. We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”) to collect certain information relating to your use of the Website. Google Analytics uses cookies to help the Website analyse how users use the site. You can find out more about how Google uses data when you visit our Website by visiting “How Google uses data when you use our partners’ sites or apps”, (located at www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/). We may also use Google Analytics Advertising Features or other advertising networks to provide you with interest-based advertising based on your online activity. For more information regarding Google Analytics please visit Google’s website and pages that describe Google Analytics, such as www.google.com/analytics/learn/privacy.html.

• Facebook. We use Facebook Pixel, web analytics, and advertising services provided by Facebook Inc. (“Facebook”) on our Website and App. The Facebook Pixel service uses cookies, pixel tags, and other storage and tracking technology to collect or receive information from our Website and App based on your usage activity. Facebook uses that information to provide us with marketing and advertising services, including targeted ads, and reports that help us measure the effectiveness of our ads, Website, and App. Using this service, we can keep track of what users do after they see or click on a Facebook advertisement, keep track of users who access our Website and App or advertisements from different devices, and better provide advertisements to our target audiences. The data from Facebook Pixel is also saved and processed by Facebook. Facebook can connect this data with your Facebook account and use it for its own and others advertising purposes, in accordance with Facebook’s Data Policy which can be found at https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/. Please also refer to “Choices About How We Use and Disclose Your Information” below for more information about tracking technologies, targeted advertising, and your choices relating to the use of your information for these purposes.

We strive to provide you with choices regarding the personal information you provide to us. We have created mechanisms to provide you with the following control over your personal information.

 

Tracking Technologies and Advertising. You can set your browser to refuse all or some browser cookies or to alert you when cookies are being sent. If you disable or refuse cookies, please note that some parts of the Website and App may then be inaccessible or not function properly.

 

Do Not Track. Some web browsers permit you to broadcast a signal to websites and online services indicating a preference that they “do not track” your online activities. We do not currently respond to “do not track” signals.

 

Promotional Offers from Zoala. If you do not wish to have your contact information used by Zoala to promote our own products or services, you can check certain boxes on the forms we use to collect your data.

​

3. How we secure and protect your information

We use a variety of industry-standard security technologies and procedures to help protect your data from unauthorised access, use, or disclosure.

• Your account is protected by a password for your privacy and security. You must prevent unauthorised access to your account and personal information by selecting and protecting your password appropriately and limiting access to your computer or device and browser by signing off after you have finished accessing your account.

• All transmitted data are encrypted during transmission. We use standard Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption that encodes information for such transmissions. All stored data are maintained on secure servers. Access to stored data is protected by multi-layered security controls including firewalls, role-based access controls and passwords.

• While we use reasonable commercial efforts to protect the data, no technology, data transmission or system can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. In the event of a breach of security leading to the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure of, or access to your data, we will notify you as soon as we spot the issue.

​

4. Where we store your data

Our services are operated in Singapore. If you are located in another jurisdiction, please be aware that the information you provide to us may be transferred to, stored and processed in Singapore. By using our services or providing us with any information, you consent to this transfer, processing, and storage of your information in Singapore, a jurisdiction in which the privacy laws may not be as comprehensive as those in the country where you reside or are a citizen. We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

​

5. Data retention

We will only retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

​

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal information, the purposes for which we process your personal information and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.

​

6. Your data protection rights

As a Zoala member, you have the following data protection rights, depending on the circumstances of the specific case:

• Disclosure To receive information about your personal data processed by us and to request access to your personal data and/or copies of these data. This includes information on the purpose of use, the category of data used, its recipients and authorised persons and, if possible, the planned duration of data storage or, if this is not possible, the criteria for determining this duration.

• Correction, deletion or limitation of processing To request the correction, deletion or limitation of the processing of your personal data, e.g. by sending us an email. If (i) the data are incomplete or incorrect, (ii) they are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected, (iii) the consent on which the processing was based has been revoked, or (iv) you have successfully exercised your right to object to data processing; in cases where data is processed by third parties, we will forward your requests for correction, deletion or limitation of the processing to these third parties, unless this proves impossible or involves a disproportionate effort.

• Opposition to the processing To object to the processing for reasons arising from your particular situation.

• Refusal and revocation of consent To refuse your consent or – without affecting the legality of data processing prior to the revocation – to revoke your consent to the processing of your personal data at any time.
