For the purpose of data protection laws, Prelude Technologies is the data controller in respect to the personal information that we collect and use as part of our operations. As the data controller, we control, manage, and dictate the purpose for which your personal information is used and how we use your personal information for our operation. Only our system administrators and our support team have access to your data and we are making sure that they comply with relevant data protection requirements in their work.
The type of personal information that we may collect includes, but is not limited to the following:
If you provide personal information to us regarding or related to a third party, then you confirm that you have the consent of the third party to share such personal information and that you have made the information in this Privacy Policy available to the relevant third party.
Our website may contain links to other websites of interest. However, once you have used these links leaving our site, we do not have any control over that other website. Therefore, we cannot be responsible for the protection and privacy of any information which you provide whilst visiting such sites, which are not governed by this privacy statement. You should exercise caution and look at the privacy statement applicable to the website in question.
Prelude Technologies collects personal information for the following principal purposes. The list below will state the purpose and the reason for the purpose of collecting your personal information.
We do this for our legitimate business purposes, and under certain circumstances, to perform a contract between you and us. We may request your consent in circumstances where a legal justification over and above legitimate interests is required by applicable law.
From time to time, we may have video and audio recordings of events. We will not record anyone without informing them up front, and we will not record anyone who does not give us their consent. We will not share any recordings or parts thereof without consent.
If you change your mind on the use of your information or wish to access, correct or update personal information, we will endeavour to correct, update or remove the personal data that you give us. Information that you have explicitly made available for unrestricted public access, such as releasing a recording, may not be able to be deleted.
While there is no continent-wide, unified data protection law within the AU, the African Union Convention on Cyber Security and Personal Data Protection (Malabo Convention) offers a framework that is adapted to PRelude Technology's purposes:
An exception to data wiping is invoices and accounting data: if you have bought something on our website, we are legally required to preserve the invoices for at least 6 years.
If you have any questions, concerns, or complaints about this Privacy Policy, please contact hello@prelude.tech. You are entitled to make an anonymous complaint or inquiry in relation to this Privacy Policy or your privacy rights; however, we may require you to identify yourself if required by law or it is impracticable for us to deal with your matter otherwise. We will acknowledge receipt of any complaint and will strive to provide you with a written response within 30 days of receipt of your complaint. There may be instances where this is not possible due to the circumstances under which the complaint was made, the content of the complaint, and the scope of the complaint. If this is the case, we will respond to your complaint in a reasonable and practical time.
We may have to update this policy every now and then to add new services or make changes to adapt it to new regulations. In order to keep you up to date with changes to our policy, we will issue notices on our website, our news channels and in some cases also send you an email explaining the change. In case of a possible data breach, we will try to contact you directly via email, if we believe that your data was affected.
