Please do not submit sensitive, confidential or unnecessary personal information through general Website enquiry forms.

Information collected automatically

When you visit the Website, certain technical information may be collected automatically, including:

• IP address;
• browser and device information;
• operating system;
• pages visited;
• date and time of access;
• Website interactions; and
• cookie or similar identifiers.

We use Google Analytics to help us understand Website traffic, usage and performance.

We may use information collected through the Website to:

• respond to enquiries and demo requests;
• provide information about ApriCOT;
• communicate with prospective and existing customers, partners and alliances;
• provide customer or business support;
• manage professional and commercial relationships;
• send newsletters, invitations, product updates and other professional communications where permitted;
• understand Website usage and improve its performance;
• maintain Website security and investigate misuse or technical issues; and
• comply with applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

Submitting an enquiry or requesting a demonstration does not oblige you to purchase any ApriCOT product or service.

We use Mailchimp for certain newsletters and email-marketing communications.

Where required by applicable law, we will obtain appropriate consent before sending marketing communications.

You may unsubscribe at any time by using the unsubscribe option in the relevant email or by writing to info@apri-cot.in.

We may retain limited information necessary to ensure that an unsubscribe request continues to be respected.

Our Website may use cookies and similar technologies for Website operation, security and analytics.

We currently use Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with the Website.

Where applicable law requires consent for non-essential cookies, we will seek such consent through an appropriate cookie-management mechanism.

You may also manage cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect Website functionality.

We do not sell your personal data.

Website enquiries received by PeopleWiz Consulting LLP are retained within PeopleWiz Consulting LLP and are not routinely shared with PeopleWiz Pte. Ltd., Carpe Omnia Technologies Pvt. Ltd. or other associated entities.

We may share limited personal information with service providers where necessary to operate our Website and communications, including:

• GoDaddy – Website hosting;
• Google – Google Analytics and Gmail;
• Mailchimp – newsletters and email marketing; and
• technical, security or professional service providers where required.

We may also disclose information:

• where required by applicable law or a lawful order;
• to protect our legal rights or investigate unlawful activity;
• to lawyers, auditors, accountants or other professional advisers where reasonably necessary; or
• as part of a legitimate investment, merger, acquisition, restructuring or sale of a business or assets, subject to applicable confidentiality and legal requirements.

Some of our technology providers may process information outside India.

For example, services provided by Mailchimp, Google or other technology providers may involve processing in countries in which those providers or their service providers operate.

Our Website is hosted through GoDaddy. We do not presently state that Website data is stored exclusively in India because the actual hosting location has not been independently confirmed.

Where applicable law imposes requirements relating to international processing or transfer of personal data, we will seek to comply with those requirements.

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected or where continued retention is required or permitted by law.

As a general internal practice:

• enquiries and prospective-customer information that do not develop into an ongoing business relationship may ordinarily be retained for up to 24 months from the last meaningful interaction;
• customer, partner and other business-contact information may be retained for the duration of the relationship and for a reasonable period thereafter;
• marketing information may be retained while you remain subscribed; and
• limited information may be retained following an unsubscribe request to ensure that your preference continues to be respected.

Information may be retained for longer where reasonably necessary for legal, contractual, audit, security or dispute-resolution purposes.

When information is no longer reasonably required, we will take appropriate steps to delete or anonymise it.

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures intended to protect personal information against unauthorised access, misuse, alteration, loss or disclosure.

We also expect service providers handling personal data on our behalf to maintain appropriate privacy and security safeguards.

However, no Internet transmission, Website or electronic-storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

If a personal-data breach occurs, we will assess and respond to it and make notifications where required by applicable law.

Depending upon applicable law, you may have rights relating to personal data held about you, including the right to:

• request information about your personal data;
• request correction or updating of inaccurate information;
• request deletion where applicable;
• withdraw consent where processing is based on consent;
• unsubscribe from marketing communications; and
• raise a privacy grievance.

Additional rights under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 will apply as and when the relevant provisions become legally operative and applicable.

To exercise an applicable right, contact us at info@apri-cot.in.

We may take reasonable steps to verify your identity before acting upon a request.

The ApriCOT Website is intended for business and professional audiences and is not directed towards individuals under 18 years of age.

We do not knowingly seek to collect personal information from children through the Website.

If you believe that a child has provided personal information through the Website, please contact us.

Our Website may contain links to websites or services operated by third parties.

We do not control and are not responsible for the privacy, security or content practices of independent third-party websites. We encourage you to review their privacy policies before providing personal information to them.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our Website, technology, service providers, business practices or applicable law.

When we make changes, we will update the “Last Updated” date shown above.

Where a material change requires additional notice or consent under applicable law, we will provide such notice or seek such consent as required.
