Data Deletion Policy
1. Introduction: At Gulf Day, we are committed to respecting and protecting your privacy. This Data Deletion Policy outlines the procedures and principles we follow for handling user data deletion requests in accordance with applicable data protection regulations, including but not limited to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
2. User Data Deletion Request: If you wish to have your personal data removed from our system, you can submit a data deletion request by contacting our Data Protection Officer (DPO) through the designated channels, such as an email address or a dedicated online form. You can also request by clicking button available on your profile section.
3. Verification of Request: To ensure the security and integrity of our users’ data, we will undertake reasonable measures to verify the identity of the requester before processing any data deletion request. This may involve providing specific information or documentation to confirm your identity.
4. Processing of Data Deletion Request: Upon receiving a verified data deletion request, we will promptly begin the process of removing your personal data from our system and associated databases. This process will be carried out in a secure and irreversible manner to prevent unauthorized access or accidental deletion.
5. Retention Periods: We adhere to data retention periods as required by applicable laws and regulations. As a result, some of your data may not be immediately deleted due to legal obligations. In such cases, the data will be securely archived and not used for any purpose other than compliance with legal requirements.
6. Communication: Once your data has been successfully deleted or archived, we will notify you via your provided contact information. We will also inform you if any data must be retained due to legal obligations.
7. Data Backup and Recovery: As part of our commitment to data security, regular backups of our system are performed. In the event of data restoration from backups, we will ensure that any data previously deleted in response to user requests is not reintroduced.
8. Third-party Services: If your data has been shared with third-party services in connection with our platform, we will make reasonable efforts to facilitate the deletion of your data from those services upon your request. However, we cannot guarantee the actions of these third parties and recommend reviewing their individual privacy policies.
9. Changes to the Policy: This Data Deletion Policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes in applicable laws or our data handling practices. Any modifications will be posted on our website, and we encourage you to review this policy periodically.
10. Contact Information: If you have any questions, concerns, or requests related to your personal data, including data deletion requests, please contact our Data Protection Officer at admin@gulfday.com
