1. Introduction
Nexium Trade Limited ("Nexium", "we", "us" or "our") is committed to protecting the privacy of your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose and safeguard personal data in connection with our Website and services, in accordance with the Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance (Cap. 486) of the Laws of Hong Kong (the "Ordinance") and its six Data Protection Principles ("DPPs").
"Personal data" has the meaning given in the Ordinance and refers to information relating to an identifiable individual.
2. Data We Collect
We may collect and hold the following categories of personal data:
- Contact and identity data — your name, company, job title, email address, telephone number and business address;
- Enquiry and correspondence data — the content of messages, enquiries and any information you provide when you contact us or engage our services;
- Transactional data — information relating to assignments, introductions and commercial dealings facilitated by us;
- Technical data — limited information collected automatically when you visit the Website, such as IP address, browser type and pages viewed (see Cookies).
Providing personal data to us is voluntary. However, if you do not provide certain data we may be unable to respond to your enquiry or provide our services.
3. How We Use Your Data
We use personal data for purposes directly related to our business, including to:
- respond to your enquiries and communicate with you;
- provide, administer and facilitate our trading, sourcing, introduction and agency services;
- make and manage introductions between buyers, suppliers and counterparties;
- maintain business records, manage commissions and meet accounting requirements;
- comply with applicable laws, regulations and lawful requests by authorities; and
- protect our rights, property and safety, and prevent fraud or misuse.
4. Basis & Your Choices
We collect personal data by lawful and fair means and only for purposes connected with our functions and activities, consistent with the DPPs. Where required, we rely on your consent. You may withdraw consent or object to certain processing by contacting us, although this may affect our ability to provide services to you.
5. Direct Marketing
In accordance with the Ordinance, we will not use your personal data in direct marketing without first obtaining your consent (which may include an indication of no objection). Where we send marketing communications, we will provide a simple, free opt-out in each communication. If at any time you do not wish to receive marketing material, you may notify us at info@nexiumtrade.com and we will cease such use without charge.
6. Disclosure & Transfer
We may disclose personal data, on a need-to-know basis, to:
- counterparties, buyers, suppliers or partners, where disclosure is necessary to make an introduction or facilitate a transaction you have asked us to support;
- our professional advisers, bankers, auditors and service providers who act on our behalf;
- regulators, law enforcement or other authorities where required or permitted by law.
Where we engage data processors, we use contractual and other means to require them to protect your data and to use it only for the purposes we specify.
7. Cross-Border Transfer
Because we operate internationally, your personal data may be transferred to, and processed in, locations outside Hong Kong. Where we make such transfers, we take reasonable steps to ensure that your data continues to receive a level of protection consistent with the Ordinance.
8. Data Security
We take practicable steps to safeguard personal data against unauthorised or accidental access, processing, erasure, loss or use, having regard to the nature of the data and the potential harm. Access to personal data is restricted to personnel who need it for the purposes described above.
9. Data Retention
We retain personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including to satisfy any legal, accounting, tax or reporting requirements. When personal data is no longer required, we take reasonable steps to erase or anonymise it.
10. Your Rights (Access & Correction)
Under the Ordinance, you have the right to:
- request access to the personal data we hold about you (a "data access request");
- request correction of personal data that is inaccurate;
- ascertain our policies and practices in relation to personal data and the kinds of personal data we hold; and
- request that we cease using your personal data for direct marketing.
To exercise these rights, please contact us using the details below. We may charge a reasonable fee for complying with a data access request, as permitted by the Ordinance, and may need to verify your identity before responding.
