How we protect and store your information

We have a team dedicated to keeping your information secure and testing for vulnerabilities. In addition to two-factor authentication, encryption of files at rest, and alerts when new devices and apps link to your accounts, we continue to work hard to ensure the security of your information. We deploy automated technology to detect abusive behavior and content that could harm you, other users, or the Services.

After you have signed up for a BoultBox account, we retain the information you store in the Services for as long as your account exists or as long as necessary to provide you with the Services. If you want to delete your account, please send an email to helpdesk@boultbox.com with such a request and we will delete your account within 30 days after receiving your request. However, 1) we will not delete your account information until we have verified your user identity; 2) such deletion of information from our servers and backup storage may be delayed; 3) we may retain this information if necessary to fulfill our legal obligations, resolve disputes, or exercise our rights under the Contract.

We will store your personal information for the period required for providing the Services. However, in the event that laws and regulations require otherwise, you agree to keep the information for a longer term, it is necessary to ensure the security and quality of the Services, the information is required to settle disputes, or it is technically intractable to process the information as required, we will extend the retention period as per laws and agreement or to a reasonable extent after the expiration of the aforesaid period.

When the retention period expires, we will delete your personal information or de-identify it in accordance with laws and regulations.

We will collect, use, store, and transfer your information based on the principle of "minimization", and inform you of the purpose and scope of use of the information by means of user agreement, privacy policy, rules, pop-up notifications, notices, and so on.

We attach great importance to information security. We have a dedicated team to develop and employ a variety of security technologies and programs. We carry out security background checks on personnel in charge of security management and those in critical security positions. We have established a complete information security management system and internal mechanisms for handling security events and more. We take appropriate security measures and technical means in line with industry standards to store and protect your personal information, so as to prevent your information from being lost or accessed, disclosed, used, damaged, or revealed without authorization. All reasonable and feasible measures are being taken for protecting your personal information. In addition, we use encryption technology to ensure the confidentiality of data and apply trusted protection mechanisms to prevent malicious attacks on data.

We train and assess our employees in terms of data security awareness and security abilities to enhance their comprehension of the importance of protecting personal information. We authenticate the identity of employees who process personal information and control their access, sign nondisclosure agreements with our employees and partners who have access to your personal information, and clarify job responsibilities and code of conduct, so that only authorized personnel can access personal information. In the event of any violation of the nondisclosure agreements, the employment will be terminated immediately with the violator held accountable by law. Moreover, there are also confidentiality requirements that relevant personnel must follow when they leave their posts.

We kindly remind you that the Internet is not absolutely secure. Hence, you should carefully protect your personal information when you interact with other users through third-party social software, emails, SMS, and other services integrated into BoultBox under the condition that you are uncertain whether your information is completely encrypted during transfer.

Also, we appreciate your understanding that due to the technical restrictions, rapid development, and various latent and malicious attacks pertaining to the Internet industry, we may not be able to keep your information secure a hundred percent even though we make every effort to enhance our security measures. Hence, the system and communication network based on which you use our product and/or the Services may encounter security problems in other processes beyond our control.

Our security management system regards the disclosure, damage, or loss of personal information as the most serious security event. Once it occurs, our highest-level emergency plan will be implemented with multiple departments dealing with the event as one emergency response team.

We formulate an emergency plan for network security events to promptly respond to system vulnerabilities, computer viruses, cyber-attacks, network intrusions, and other security risks. In case of an event endangering network security, we will immediately carry out the plan, take remedial actions, and report to competent authorities as required.

The disclosure, damage, and loss of personal information are regarded as the most serious security events. Accordingly, we organize members of working groups to perform security plan drills on a regular basis to avoid such events. In the event that such events do occur, we will carry out the emergency plan as a top priority and form an emergency response team to trace the cause and mitigate losses in the shortest time possible.

In case of a personal information security event, we will, as required by laws and regulations, inform you of the basic information about the security event and its possible impact, the measures we have taken or will take, recommendations on actively preventing and mitigating risks for you, and remedial measures for you. We will inform you of event-related information in a timely manner through our notifications or the contact information you have provided to us including SMS, phone number, and email address. If it is difficult to inform our users one by one, we will make announcements in a reasonable and effective way. Meanwhile, we will report the disposal of the personal information security event in accordance with the requirements of regulatory authorities. We appreciate your understanding that according to laws and regulations, if measures taken by us can effectively avoid the harm caused by disclosure, tampering, and loss of information, we may choose not to notify you of a personal information security event unless a regulatory authority requires us to do so.

We refer to the requirements of the GDPR, select appropriate measures for technical security protection based on the nature, scope, background, and purpose of data processing, as well as the risks to individuals, and regularly test and evaluate the measures to maintain their effectiveness.

If data is accidentally disclosed, we will notify affected people as soon as possible and report to competent authorities within 72 hours. If it is impossible to report it within 72 hours, the reason for the delay will be clarified.

We take appropriate technical and organizational measures to achieve our data protection objectives, such as the principle of data minimization and the integration of necessary safeguards into data processing to protect the rights of data subjects and make sure any data processed is necessary for a specific purpose by default.
