Diligo Holdings respects your right to privacy. This policy summarizes what personal information we may collect, how we may use this information, and other important topics relating to your privacy and data protection.
It is a Diligo Holdings policy to comply with all applicable privacy and data protection laws. This commitment reflects the value we place on earning and keeping the trust of our customers, business partners and others who share their personal information with us.
This Policy applies to all Internet sites and mobile applications operated by or on behalf of Diligo Holdings and includes Diligo Holdings entities worldwide (each a “Diligo Holdings Internet Site or App”). It also applies to personal information Diligo Holdings may otherwise collect: (i) through our products and services; (ii) when you interact with us by means other than a Diligo Holdings Internet Site or App, for example, in person, by telephone, or at a trade show or training; and (iii) from our customers, distributors, suppliers, vendors, and other business partners (collectively “Business Partners”).
However, different Diligo Holdings Internet Sites, Apps, products, and services have different purposes and features. If additional or different disclosures are required for a specific Diligo Holdings Internet Site, App, product, or service, then we provide those disclosures separately on, or with, the relevant Internet Site, App, product, or service. Each such specific privacy disclosure, policy, or statement (“Specific Privacy Statement”) supplements and amends this Policy.
