This Privacy Policy will primarily help you understand:
This Privacy Policy, as mentioned above, is intended to inform you how we gather, define, and use personal data or information that you provide to us when using our website and/or when relying on our services. This Privacy Policy also covers our treatment of any personal data or information that third parties share with us.
We are an organisation based and existing in India and are thus bound by the laws of the Union of India. This Privacy Policy has been prepared in accordance with applicable Indian laws, including the Indian Information Technology Act, 2000.
This Policy, however, contains some specific provisions in accordance with the "Regulation on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, and repealing Directive 95/46/EC" [Hereinafter referred to as "GDPR"]. These Specific Provisions are only applicable to EU Residents. EU Residents, in context to this Policy, are those individuals who are entitled to protection of their rights under the GDPR.
Thus, depending on where you reside some specific provisions and rights of a data subject, as mentioned in this Privacy Policy, may not apply to you.
This Policy applies to all visitors to our website, individual to whom we provide our services, and other individuals who provide their personal information to APPLABS, including individuals whose data is provided to us by third parties.

This Privacy Policy will primarily help a Data Subject understand:
A Data Subject’s Information collected by APPLABS primarily consists of: personal information and sensitive personal information [Collectively referred to as "Information" or "Data Subject Information"].
When a Data Subject creates visits the APPLABS website or enters his/her information on any internet form owned by APPLABS, we may directly collect or ask the Data Subject to provide the following Personal Information:
Additionally, third parties to whom APPLABS provides its services may provide us with certain personal data of Data Subjects such as:
Personal information means any information about a Data Subject from which that person can be identified. It does not include data where the identity has been removed [anonymous data] such as cookies, web beacons and other browsing information.
Browsing Information is information collected through cookies and web beacons to track what features or web-pages you have viewed on our website, and other information about your browser and browsing behaviour. We use browsing information to improve the design and content of our website, to suggest content and products that we think may be relevant to you, and to help us learn things like what pages are most attractive to our visitors, and what promotions visitors like to see, and to gauge the success of our advertising campaigns.
Because cookies and web beacons are the technology generally driving collection of browsing information, you can also block cookies to control data collection related to interest-based advertising. You can typically do so through your browser. For instructions, check your browser’s technical information. Preventing your browser from accepting cookies prevents the collection of your browsing information for purposes of delivering interest-based ads. However, it may also disable or interfere with other features on our website. For example, cookies allow us to remember your preferences when you logout of your account and then login again. Cookies also allow us to recognize you as an account holder when you return to our website. Most browsers accept cookies automatically.
In addition to this, while you visit our website, we automatically receive and record certain information of your session. Like many other websites, our website uses log files to do so. These files merely log visitors to the website which is a standard procedure for hosting companies and a part of hosting services’ analytics. The information inside the log files includes internet protocol [IP] addresses, browser type, Internet Service Provider [ISP], date/time stamp, referring/exit pages, and possibly the number of clicks made by you. This information is used to analyse trends, administer the website, track your movement around the website, and gather demographic information. These log files and the information contained in it, such as IP addresses, and other such information, cannot be used by us to identify or ascertain your identity.
Certain categories of personal information, such as financial record, health or biometric information, sexual orientation, etc. are considered to be Sensitive Personal Information. Data Subject may choose to share his or her Sensitive Personal Information with APPLABS directly in certain circumstances. APPLABS collects and processes Sensitive Personal Information only when it is essential to offer its services to the Data Subject.
By providing his or her Sensitive Personal Information, the Data Subject agrees that we may collect, use and share this information with third parties for the purpose of processing Data Subject’s service request[s].
It is hereby clarified that Sensitive Personal Information shall constitute Sensitive Personal Data or Information under the Indian Information Technology Act, 2000.
We collect Information about Data Subject through the following means:
We use Data Subject Information to conduct our business and to provide Data Subject and our other partners with the best possible services and user experience. We will only use Data Subject Information based on this Privacy Policy, our contract with the Data Subject, and when the law allows APPLABS to.
In addition to this, we may disclose Data Subject Information:

In addition to this, we may disclose Data Subject Information:
We may also use Data Subject Information in the following situations, which are likely to be rare:
If a Data Subject fails to provide certain Information when requested, we may not be able to perform the contract we have entered into with the Data Subject, or we may be prevented from complying with our legal obligations.
The Data Subject hereby accepts and agrees that we shall not be held liable in any manner whatsoever if we are unable to perform our services or if there is a deficiency in our services to the Data Subject due to Data Subject's failure to provide such information.

If we need to use Data Subject Information for an unrelated purpose, we will notify the Data Subject and we will explain the legal basis which allows APPLABS to do so.
Please note that we may process Data Subject Information without Data Subject's knowledge or consent, in compliance with the above rules, where this is required or permitted by law.

Except as provided in this Policy, we will not provide Data Subject Information to any other third party.
There may be occasions when we need to transfer Data Subject Information outside India in order to enable APPLABS to use the information in accordance with this Policy.
Such transfer of information may be to a country which does or does not provide the same level of data protection as in India. In these circumstances we will take appropriate steps to ensure that Data Subject Information is adequately protected.
Typically, such steps include carrying out data security reviews of any recipients and putting in place contracts with such recipients to ensure they employ the same or similar appropriate technical and organisational measures as APPLABS, so that Data Subject Information is adequately protected.
In the specific case of EU Residents, please note that the information that we collect may be transferred to countries which do not have an adequacy decision by the European Commission in respect of that country. This means that the country to which we transfer your information is not deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for your information. To ensure that your information does receive an adequate level of protection we have put in place strong inter country security measures to ensure that your information is treated by those third parties in a way that is consistent with GDPR.
Data Subject expressly agree to the transfer of his/her information described in this Section.
We are committed to protecting Data Subject Information and thus implement appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect it against any unauthorised or unlawful processing and against any accidental loss, destruction, or damage.
Appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures have been put in place to safeguard and help prevent unauthorized access, maintain data security, and correctly use the information collected from Data Subject.
Data Subject Information is processed by APPLABS in strict accordance with the Indian Information Technology Act, 2000, and the rules notified
thereunder. We implement and maintain ‘Reasonable Security Practices and Procedures’ as stated in the Indian Information Technology Act, 2000 and the Information Technology [Reasonable Security Practices and Procedures and Sensitive Personal Data or Information] Rules, 2011, while processing, collecting, or handling any Sensitive Personal Information collected from Data Subject.
Please note that in the specific case of EU residents, all information including their Sensitive Personal Information is secured and protected by us in accordance with GDPR.
We will only retain Data Subject 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.
In some circumstances we may anonymise Data Subject Information so that it can no longer be associated with the Data Subject, in which case we may use such information without a further statement to Data Subject.
Details about the primary entity which handles and retains Data Subject Information is provided below:
