How secure is the data we collect?
We do our best to ensure that your personal data is protected and your privacy is preserved. We use physical, technical, and organizational safeguards to protect your personal data against loss, theft, and unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use, or modification. These practices include:
• Use of secured servers behind advanced threat protection appliances, firewalls, encryption and other security tools.
• Use of standard encryption tools such as SSL (Secure Socket Layer) to help protect personal data and to keep information collected secure.
• Website/Application security testing conducted by a third party prior to it being launched and when major changes have been applied.
In addition, we limit access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who are qualified and authorized to process them. All such persons, wherever they are located, are required to protect the confidentiality and privacy of your personal data in a manner consistent with our privacy policies and practices.
And please remember:
• You provide personal data at your own risk. Unfortunately, no data transmission is guaranteed to be 100% secure
• If you believe your privacy has been breached as a direct result of your use of our website, please contact us immediately by sending us an email at lti.dataprivacy@ayalalandlogistics.com
How long do we store your data?
We shall retain your personal data obtained via our Contact Us for a period of one (1) year from the fulfillment of the declared purposes or allowable criteria for its processing; unless we believe that these may be relevant to any ongoing or prospective legal proceedings in order to establish, exercise, and defend our legal rights (including providing information to others for the purposes of fraud prevention and reducing credit risk).
Thereafter, your personal information shall be disposed or discarded in a secure manner that would prevent further processing, unauthorized access, or disclosure to any other party or the public. Specifically, all personal data in electronic form will be deleted from our databases, following the retention period stated above.
