Your use of our Services signifies that you understand our practices regarding information collection and use and agree to uphold this Privacy Policy.

Should any aspect of our Privacy Policy and/or processing of your personal information seem unclear, we are at your disposal to clarify them.

4. Data Sharing

We do not share any of your information. However, for the sake of transparency, we would like to outline the circumstances under which we might be obliged to share or disclose your information. By all means, It is our policy to only share your personal data under strict legal conditions, ensuring that our privacy standards and relevant legislation are upheld.

Third-Party Access

We never share your personal information with anyone unaffiliated or unrelated to our Services. To ensure we can deliver our services effectively, we cooperate with trusted third-party service providers, namely those who handle payment processing. Mind that we do not share any personal information with them as you are the one who provides payment details in their forms. We might share only the essential information needed for these providers to perform their services upon your consent and we obligate such payment processors to keep your data confidential and secure.

Legal Requirements

We may disclose your personal information if required by law or if we believe in good faith that such action is necessary to comply with legal processes, respond to claims, or protect the rights, property, or safety of our company, our customers, or our partners.

Business Transfers

In the event of a merger, acquisition, restructuring, or sale of assets, your data may be transferred as part of the transaction. We will ensure that the new Company will be obliged to follow the commitments made in this Privacy Policy.

Consent-Based Sharing

There may be cases when we will be seeking your explicit consent to share your data for a purpose not outlined within this Policy. In such events, we will provide you with full details and the implications of sharing your information, allowing you to make an informed decision. In case you don’t give your consent to such sharing, your personal information will not be disclosed.

We are steadfast in our practice of not selling or renting your personal data to marketers or unaffiliated third parties without your consent. Your information is a critical aspect of our business, and it is treated as such – with the respect and security it deserves.

5. International Data Transfers

Your information may be transferred to — and maintained on — computers located outside of your state, province, or country where the data protection laws may differ. If we transfer data outside the EEA, we will ensure adequate security measures are in place to uphold data privacy.

6. Your Rights

Your control over your personal data is a priority for us. The GDPR grants you certain rights that we not only uphold but also strive to facilitate with ease and clarity.

Your Privacy Rights

You have the right to access your personal information we hold and to ask for any corrections and/or updates as needed. If you wish to review or change any details you have provided us, you can do so in your personal account settings or by contacting our support team with such a request.

You also have the right to request deletion of your data or restrict its processing. We are collecting and using your personal information based on your informed consent; and you can withdraw that consent at any time. In case of consent withdrawal, the contract and cooperation between you as a customer and us as the Company ends immediately, which restricts you from using our Services.

Data Portability

Upon request, we can provide you with a copy of your personal data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format. If it is technically feasible, you can ask us to send this information directly to another service provider.

Making Choices

We understand that your needs and concerns can evolve, which is why we offer you the flexibility to modify your communication preferences and opt-out of certain data uses. For instance, if you no longer wish to receive marketing messages from us, you can update your preferences or follow the unsubscribe instructions in the communication received.

Raising Concerns

If you have any questions regarding how we use and handle your data, you can contact us directly. Moreover, you have the right to file a complaint with a data protection authority in the European Union; as a GDPR-compliant entity, we will respond to all complaints in the way described in the Governing Law and Jurisdiction section of this Policy.

We take your questions and concerns about your data rights seriously. Thus, we are committed to addressing them promptly and with the utmost respect as our pledge to build a trusting and secure environment for all our users.

7. Consent and Withdrawal of Consent

Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), consent refers to any freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous indication of your desire and intent to knowingly use our services through a statement or clear affirmative action. By granting your consent, you agree to the processing of your personal data for one or more specific purposes as stated in current Privacy Policy.

You have the right to choose whether or not to give your consent for processing your personal information. If you decide to give us consent, you need to know that you are free to change your mind at any time.

Granting Consent

Consent must be a clear affirmative act. We seek your consent to process your personal information at the point of collection, namely when you are registering your account with us and placing your order. This means you need to tick the checkbox that clearly indicates you have read our Terms and Conditions, Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy, Refund Policy, and Fair Use Policy, and signifies your agreement to our use of your personal data as stipulated in these documents.

Withdrawing Consent

Just as you have the right to consent to the use of your data, you also have the right to withdraw that consent. If you wish to withdraw your consent, you can do so at any time, and we will stop processing your data. The withdrawal of consent will not affect the lawfulness of data processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

To withdraw your consent, please contact us using the contact information provided in this Privacy Policy. We will process and satisfy your consent withdrawal request as soon as possible but certainly within one month of receiving it. Please note that in some cases, we may need to retain certain information about you where required or permitted by law, even after you have withdrawn your consent.

Consequences of Not Providing Consent

If you choose not to give consent to processing your personal information, or if you withdraw it later, you might not have access to our Services that require the use of your personal data. We will not subject you to a decision based solely on automated processing, which may produce legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affect you, without your explicit consent.

8. Data Security

Keeping your personal information safe is our top priority. We understand how important it is to protect your data from getting into the wrong hands or being lost, destroyed, or damaged.

Here’s what we do to make sure your data is secure:

• Encryption: Just like a secret code, we encrypt your data. This means that if someone gets it, they won’t be able to understand it because it will be coded in a special manner that cannot be decoded.

• Access Control: We only let the selected employees see your data. Our employees and partners need a special ‘key’— a password or another form of identification—to access it. Such employees can get this key only if it is necessary to do their job. Yet, employees are not allowed to access, review, or anyhow process information without solid reason for it. Mainly, they will use that information to contact you about your active order with us and only if it is deemed necessary.

• Training: Everyone who works for us learns about how to keep data safe. We teach our team to be on the lookout for any signs of trouble and to handle your information correctly.

• Updates and Monitoring: We keep our security systems up to date and watch over our networks to catch any suspicious activity. 

• Backup Systems: We make copies of your data and store them safely. So, if anything ever happens to the original data, e.g. if it is accidentally deleted or something goes wrong, we can use the backup to restore it.

• Physical Security: For any paper records or servers that we might have, we use locked doors, security cameras, and alarms to protect them from intruders.

If something goes wrong, we have plans and measures in place to deal with it quickly and will let you know if your data is affected in any serious way.

We are committed to following laws and standards to keep your personal data safe. However, no system can be 100% secure all the time. That’s why we ask you to also take care of your personal data. Be cautious with your own information, and if you think there has been a problem with your data that we have or you have reasonable suspicion that someone unauthorized has got access to it, please inform us right away.

9. Data Retention

When you use our Services, we collect personal information necessary for provision of our services and any details you give us about the writing help you need. Below is our Policy how we retain that information:

Duration of Retaining Your Personal Information

We only hold on to your personal information for as long as we really need it to provide our services to you. This means that if you have an account with us, we will keep your details for as long as your account is active or as long as we need to provide our Services to you. After you close your account or stop using our Services, we will only keep your data if we have a good reason, such as for tax purposes or if the law requires.

In most cases, if we have not had any interaction with you for five years, we will delete your data from our systems. If you have just inquired about our Services but decided not to go ahead, we will only keep your information for one year, just in case you come back.

Criteria Used to Determine the Period

We look at a few things to decide how long to keep your data:

Legal Requirements: Sometimes the law tells us how long we have to keep certain information. For example, we keep billing information for five years to comply with tax laws.

Purpose of Data: If you gave us information for a specific purpose, like writing a custom piece for you, we will keep it for as long as it takes to complete that purpose.

Security: We want to make sure that we keep enough information to help us prevent fraud and make sure your account is secure.

Updates: If you update any information or give us new details, we will keep the updated information for the same time frame as above.

We try to keep our Privacy Policy simple and do not keep your personal information for any longer than we feel is necessary. The exact time varies depending on why we needed your data in the first place.

Your Right to Deletion of Personal Data

You can ask us to delete your personal information sooner if you want. Unless we have to keep it for legal reasons, we will positively respond to your request.

Remember, if you ask us to delete your information, you might not be able to use our Services anymore or there might be a delay if you decide to use our Services again in the future.

If you have any questions about how long we keep your data, or if you want to request your data deletion, contact us.

15. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

For everyone who uses our writing services, we want you to understand which laws apply to our Privacy Policy and where any legal issues would be resolved.

Since our Company is registered in Cyprus, our Privacy Policy has been developed primarily under the laws of Cyprus. We also operate in adherence to the EU legislation on privacy and data protection, namely the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), as well as U.S. Federal regulations on data privacy.

Here’s what that means for you:

Governing Law: The terms of this Privacy Policy, and any dispute or claim that comes from it or is related to it, will be governed by the laws of Cyprus. This is true no matter where you live or where you are from.

Jurisdiction: If there is a legal issue that needs to be sorted out in court, the courts of Cyprus will be the ones to do it. By providing your informed consent to using our services, you are agreeing to this.

If you are using our Services from outside of Cyprus, other laws might also apply. But when it comes to privacy and the way we handle your data, the laws of Cyprus and internationally accepted GDPR are what we follow.

In case any disputes about this Policy or how we use your data arise, we hope and strive to resolve them amicably. But if we need to go to court, the case will be heard in Cyprus.

Remember, this section is all about the legal side of things. If you have questions about your privacy or data, you do not need a lawyer to ask us — just get in touch with us, and we will do our best to help you out.
