Privacy PolicyINTERNET AND MOBILE ASSOCIATION OF INDIA ('IAMAI or ‘we’ or ‘us’ or ‘our’') IS CONCERNED ABOUT YOUR PRIVACY. PLEASE READ THIS PRIVACY POLICY BEFORE USING IAMAI’s online platform for Digital Native Brand Awards, 2024 (‘PLATFORM’/‘Platform’). BY USING THE PLATFORM OR SUBMITTING THE INFORMATION ON THE PLATFORM, YOU (‘You’ or ‘you’ or ‘yourself’ or ‘User’ or ‘your’) AGREE THAT YOU ARE OF THE AGE OF 18 YEARS OR ABOVE AND EXPRESSLY CONSENT TO THE PROCESSING AND USE OF THE INFORMATION ACCORDING TO THE PRIVACY POLICY.
Your access to and use of the Platform is conditional upon your acceptance of and compliance with this Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy applies to everyone, including, but not limited to: visitors, users, and others, who wish to access or use the Platform. By accessing or using the Platform, you agree to be bound by this Privacy Policy. If you disagree with any part of the Privacy Policy, then you do not have our permission to access or use the Platform.
This Privacy Policy is in accordance with the Indian Information Technology Act, 2000 and the Information Technology (Reasonable Security and Procedures and Sensitive Personal Data or Information) Rules, 2011 prescribed thereunder and any amendments thereto, (“Applicable Law”) that is intended to provide you with clear and complete information about the treatment of your Personal Information that IAMAI collects in connection with your use of the Platform and the way your Personal Information and Data is stored and used by IAMAI.
By registering and nominating on our Platform you specifically consent to the use and transmission/transfer/sharing of your Personal Information to IAMAI.
When you register with the PLATFORM as a User, IAMAI will ask you for Personal Information. This refers to information about you that can be used to contact or identify you. Personal Information means any information that relates to a natural person, which, either directly or indirectly, or in combination with other information available or likely to be available on the Platform, is capable of identifying such individual. Personal Information includes your full name, e-mail address, mobile /telephone number, birth date, location/address, gender, occupation, industry and any other personal information that we collect, in combination with any other information about yourself, which is capable of identifying yourself, (“Personal Information”). We use your Personal Information for registration purpose on the Platform and may also use it to provide the service as per Terms and Conditions, which you can view at https://dnb.iamaiawards.in/Front/terms-conditions and administer your inquiries.
IAMAI also collects other non-identifiable information that the User provides as part of the Platform (e.g., without limitation, zip code and any other information that IAMAI may require in order to register for the events and to provide the services on the Platform).
We use your Personal Information (in some cases, in conjunction with your non-identifiable Information) to provide the services on the Platform, and to administer any inquiries posed by You.
You acknowledge and hereby agree and consent that IAMAI may share your Personal Information (in some cases, in conjunction with your non-identifiable information) with third parties in order to provide services on the Platform and serve you with a better user experience.
Certain non-identifiable information would be considered a part of your Personal Information if it were combined with other identifiers (for example, combining your zip code with your street address) in a way that enables you to be identified. But the same pieces of information are considered non-identifiable information when they are taken alone or combined only with other non-identifiable information (for example, viewing preferences). We may combine your Personal Information with non-identifiable information and aggregate it with information collected from other users to attempt to provide you with a better experience, to improve the quality and value of the Platform and to analyse and understand your personality. We may also use the combined information without aggregating it to serve you.
IAMAI also uses your Personal Information to contact you with IAMAI’s newsletters, marketing or promotional materials and other information that may be of interest to the User. If the User decides at any time that it no longer wishes to receive such communications from IAMAI, please follow the unsubscribe instructions provided in any of the communications. Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, a User’s name, address details and all other Personal Information will remain confidential at all times.
This Privacy Policy covers IAMAI’s treatment of your Personal Information that we collect when you use the Platform. This policy does not apply to companies or entities that IAMAI does not own or control, or has no contractual relationship with. If you choose not to provide the Personal Information that we seek from you, then you may not be able to avail the Platform services and we may also not be able respond to any queries that you may have.
Platform Information and Non-Identifiable Information: IAMAI may share Platform information that may or may not include your Personal Information and may otherwise disclose non-identifiable Information to third-parties for industry analysis, demographic profiling and other commercial and/or non-commercial purposes.
Compliance with Laws and Law Enforcement: IAMAI co-operates with government and law enforcement officials and private parties to enforce and comply with the law. IAMAI will disclose any information about the User that it collects to any governmental or law enforcement officials as IAMAI, in its sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate to respond to claims and legal process (including but not limited to subpoenas), to protect the property and rights of IAMAI or a third party, to protect the safety of the public or any person, or to prevent or stop activity IAMAI may consider to be, or to pose a risk of being, any illegal, unethical or legally actionable activity.
Business Transfers: IAMAI may sell, transfer or otherwise share some or all of its assets, including any Personal Information, or non-identifiable information in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization or sale of assets or in the event of bankruptcy.
Account Information: The User agrees to keep confidential and not to disclose to any other individual or individuals for all time the User name and password related to their respective account.
We may also use your Personal Information for internal purposes, such as auditing, data analysis and research to improve the Platform and customer communications.
Like many platforms, we use "cookies" to collect information. A cookie is a small data file that IAMAI transfers to the User’s computer's hard disk for record-keeping purposes. We use cookies for two purposes. Firstly, IAMAI utilizes persistent cookies to save the User’s registration ID and login password for future logins to the Platform. Secondly, IAMAI utilizes session ID cookies to enable certain features of the Platform, to better understand how the User interacts with the Platform and to monitor aggregate usage by the Users and web traffic routing on the Platform. Unlike persistent cookies, session cookies are deleted from the User’s computer when the User logs off from the Platform and then closes the browser. Third party advertisers on the Platform may also place or read cookies on the User’s browser. The User can instruct their browser, by changing its options, to stop accepting cookies or to prompt the User before accepting a cookie from the websites they visit. If the User does not accept cookies, however, they may not be able to use all portions of the Platform or all functionalities of the Platform.
We employ administrative, physical and technical measures designed to protect your information from unauthorized access and to comply with Applicable Law. We seek to use reasonable organizational, technical and administrative measures to protect Personal Information within our organization. Unfortunately, no transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure, please immediately notify us by contacting us at iamai@iamai.in
The Platform may contain links to other sites. If you choose to visit such links, IAMAI is not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those other websites.
IAMAI does not knowingly collect Personal Information from children under the age of 18. If a parent or guardian becomes aware that his or her child has provided IAMAI with Personal Information without their consent, he or she should contact IAMAI at iamai@iamai.in. If IAMAI becomes aware that a child under the age of 18 has provided IAMAI with Personal Information, IAMAI will delete such information from IAMAI’s files.
IAMAI may amend this Privacy Policy from time to time. The use of information we collect now is subject to the Privacy Policy in effect at the time such information is used. If IAMAI makes material changes in the way IAMAI collects or uses information, IAMAI will notify you by posting an announcement on the Platform or sending you an email. A User is bound by any changes to the Privacy Policy when he or she uses the Platform after such changes have been first posted.
Identity theft and the practice currently known as "phishing" are of great concern to IAMAI. Safeguarding information to help protect you from identity theft is a top priority. We do not and will not, at any time, request your credit card information, your account ID, login password, or national identification numbers in a non-secure or unsolicited e-mail or telephone communication.
