Privacy Policy

Effective as of 11th April 2023

This website (and any mobile site or mobile application that links to this Privacy Policy) (collectively, the “Sites”) is owned and operated by Tixity Group Limited (a company established in Hong Kong SAR with its principal place of business at Unit A, 3/F, Cheong Sun Tower, 116-118 Wing Lok Street, Sheung Wan, Hong Kong) (“Tixity”, “we”, “our”, and “us”).

 

At Tixity, we are committed to respecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use and disclose personal information that we receive when you visit the Sites, or communicate with us both on the Sites and offline as a business customer, prospective customer or general contact. Tixity has developed policies and procedures consistent with the Personal Data Privacy Ordinance (“PDPO”), the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and other relevant privacy laws.

 

This Privacy Policy applies to Tixity and its subsidiaries, and, for GDPR purposes, covers our processing activities as a data controller. We also process personal information as a data processor on behalf of our customers (please see “Tixity as Data Processor” below).

 

The Sites are not intended for or directed at children under the age of 16 years and we do not knowingly collect information relating to children under this age.

 

We are not required to appoint a formal data protection officer under data protection laws. However, we have designated a Privacy/Data Protection Compliance team who you can reach out to about any queries you may have in relation to this Privacy Policy.

Tixity adheres to the following fair information principles when processing your personal information as data controller:

 

  • Accountability – Tixity is responsible for personal information and data under its control and has designated a Privacy/Data Protection Compliance team to manage our compliance with applicable data protection laws.
  • Lawfulness, fairness and transparency – personal information and data must be processed lawfully, fairly and in a transparent manner.
  • Purpose identification and limitation – personal information and data must be collected for specified, explicit and legitimate purposes and not further processed in a manner that is incompatible with those purposes. Tixity will identify the purposes for which personal information is collected at or before the time the information is collected.
  • Data minimisation – personal information and data must be adequate, relevant and limited to what is necessary in relation to the purposes for which they are processed.
  • Accuracy – personal information and data must be accurate and, where necessary, kept up to date.
  • Storage limitation – personal information and data must be kept in a form which permits identification of data subjects for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which the personal information are processed.
