Access to Personal Data Controlled by our Partners

Anthropology Review acknowledges that you have the right to access your personal data and to withdraw consent to the use/processing of your personal data. We are a service provider to our customers and in some cases, we have no direct relationship with any individual whose personal data is processed by a partner. If you are one of our (potential) customers or website visitors and would no longer like to be contacted by a person or entity that is a partner for our service, please contact the partner that you interact with directly. If requested to remove data by our partner, we will respond within 30 days or as otherwise required by applicable law.

Data Retention by Anthropology Review

We will retain personal data for as long as a customer is active or as needed to provide the service to our customer, as required under customer agreements and / or for as long as Anthropology Review needs the personal data to fulfil the purposes for which the Company initially collected it, unless otherwise required by applicable law or court order. We will also retain this personal data as necessary to comply with our legal and/or contractual obligations, comply with court orders, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

When the purpose for which Anthropology Review is processing the personal data is fulfilled, expires or is terminated, Anthropology Review will either delete or anonymize/de-identify any personal data in accordance with our customer agreements, this Privacy Policy and applicable law. In the event we cannot delete or anonymize/de-identify your personal data, we will inform you of the reasons, subject to any legal restrictions.

Data Security

Anthropology Review employs reasonable and appropriate security measures to protect against the loss, misuse, and alteration of the personal data it processes. When the website is accessed, Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology protects information using both server authentication and data encryption to help provide that personal data is safe, and secure while in transit.

Anthropology Review also implements an advanced security method based on dynamic data and hosts the website in a secure server environment that uses a firewall and other advanced technology to protect against interference or access from outside intruders. These safeguards help protect against unauthorised access, maintain data accuracy, and provide for the appropriate use of personal data. Nevertheless, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is one hundred percent (100%) secure, however. Therefore, we cannot guarantee absolute security. If you have any questions about security on our Service or Site, please contact us at info@anthropologyreview.net.

Links to Third-Party Sites

Our website includes links to other Websites whose privacy practices may differ from those at www.anthropologyreview.net. If you submit personal data to any of these sites, your information is governed by the applicable third-party’s privacy policies and we are not responsible for it. We therefore encourage you to carefully read any notices provided through a hyperlink and the privacy policy of any Website you visit and raise questions directly with these other providers.

We do not knowingly collect information from minors. To use the Site, you must be the age of legal majority in your place of residence.

Do-Not-Track Disclosure

There are many methods where web browser signals and similar mechanisms can indicate your choice to disable tracking. But we may not be aware of or able to honour every such mechanism. Because there is not yet a common understanding of how to interpret web browser-based “Do Not Track” (DNT) signals other than cookies, we may not respond to undefined DNT signals to our Sites or online services. More information about “do not track” is available at allaboutdnt.com concerning such information.

Severability
