5.2 Legal Bases for Processing

In some jurisdictions, privacy laws require us to have a valid legal reason (a “lawful basis”) before we collect or use your personal information. When those laws apply, the legal basis we rely on will depend on your relationship with ActionFliks Media Corp. and how you interact with our Website.

Examples of legal bases on which we rely include situations where processing of personal information is necessary to:

Perform a contract with you or take steps at your request before entering into a contract;
Comply with a legal obligation to which we are subject;
Pursue our legitimate interests or those of another party (provided your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests) — such as operating our business, improving our services, ensuring the security of our Website, and communicating with you about our offerings;
Protect the vital interests of you or another natural person.

Another possible legal basis is your consent. If the legal basis is consent, we will explain what you are agreeing to in clear and plain language. You can withdraw your consent at any time. We will also seek additional consent if we want to use your information for a new purpose that is different from the original one.

5.3 Automated Decision-Making

ActionFliks Media Corp. does not make decisions based solely on automated processing that produces legal or similarly significant effects on you. Any personalization we apply (such as content recommendations) is limited and subject to your rights described in Section 8 (Your Privacy Rights and Choices).

6. AI SYSTEMS AND YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

ActionFliks Media Corp. takes the use of personal information by AI Systems seriously. This section sets forth how this Privacy Policy applies to AI Systems, AI-enabled vendors, and the protection of personal information from unauthorized AI training, ingestion, or exploitation.

ActionFliks Media Corp. expressly reserves its rights with respect to personal information collected through our Website, including, without limitation, under Article 4 of the EU Directive 2019/790/EC and equivalent provisions under applicable data protection law, to the fullest extent permitted.

6.2 AI Vendors and Service Providers

Where we engage Service Providers that incorporate AI-enabled features — including but not limited to email marketing platforms, analytics tools, customer-relationship-management systems, content-recommendation engines, security and fraud-prevention tools, and productivity software — we require by contract that such providers process your personal information only for the specific services we have engaged them to perform, and that they do not use your personal information to train, develop, fine-tune, or improve any general-purpose AI System, model, or technology, except as permitted under this Privacy Policy or as authorized in writing by ActionFliks Media Corp.

9. INTERNATIONAL DATA TRANSFERS

9.1 United States-Based Processing

Our Website and operations are maintained in the United States. The personal information we collect from you may be stored, processed, and transferred to the United States and other destinations outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”), the United Kingdom, Switzerland, or other countries in which you may be located.

If you are located outside the United States, by using our Website and engaging our services, you consent to the transfer of your personal information to the United States. You understand that data stored in the United States may be subject to lawful requests by the courts or law enforcement authorities in the United States, and that the United States may not have data protection laws that are as comprehensive or protective as those in your country of residence.

9.2 Safeguards for International Transfers

Where your personal information is protected by the EU or UK General Data Protection Regulation, Swiss data protection law, or similar regimes, we use appropriate safeguards permitted under applicable law for international transfers — including adequacy decisions, standard contractual clauses, or other lawful transfer mechanisms. Contact privacy@teadocumentary.com for more information.

10. DATA SECURITY

We use best efforts and industry-standard security measures to safeguard the personal information we collect about you, including encryption for the transmission of sensitive data and secure storage systems, to help protect against loss, misuse, alteration, or unauthorized access. We have built our Website and business processes using appropriate security measures and authentication tools to help prevent unauthorized access, disclosure, modification, or destruction of personal information.

However, no method of transmitting or storing electronic data is ever completely secure, and therefore, we cannot warrant or guarantee that personal information will never be accessed, used, or released in a manner that is inconsistent with this Privacy Policy. We maintain reasonable practices to handle security incidents that may involve your personal information.

We strongly urge you to protect any passwords you may have for our Website and not to share them with anyone. You should always log out of our Website when you finish using it, especially if you are sharing or using a computer in a public place.

11. DATA RETENTION

We retain your personal information for as long as needed or permitted for the purposes for which it was collected. The criteria we use to determine our retention periods include:

The duration of our ongoing relationship with you and our need to provide our content, communications, and offerings to you;
Our legal obligations to which we are subject, including tax, accounting, and reporting requirements;
Our legitimate interests in retaining information, in light of our legal position, including applicable statutes of limitations, anticipated or actual litigation, and regulatory inquiries.

If we use your personal information for multiple purposes, we will retain it until the purpose with the longest retention period expires; we will discontinue use for purposes with shorter retention periods when those purposes have been fulfilled.

Your personal information may need to be retained in our backup systems and will only be deleted or overwritten at a later time. This may be the case even when you or a regulator has validly requested that we delete your personal information, or when we no longer have a legal basis for processing.

When your personal information is no longer needed for the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, we will destroy, delete, or anonymize it in a secure manner.

For ongoing partnerships and client relationships, we retain information for the duration of our professional relationship and for a reasonable period afterward as required by professional standards, business needs, and legal obligations.

12. PAYMENTS

We may provide paid products or services within our Website. In such cases, we may utilize third-party services for payment processing (such as payment processors).

We do not store your payment card details. That information is provided directly to our third-party payment processors, whose use of your personal information is governed by their own privacy policies. These payment processors adhere to the standards set by the PCI-DSS, as managed by the PCI Security Standards Council — a joint effort of brands such as Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover. PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of payment information.

For tea events, workshops, and other services, we may issue credits or gift transfers rather than refunds to minimize processing fees and provide you with continued access to our offerings.

13. CHILDREN’S PRIVACY

Our Website is not intended for use by anyone under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe that your child has provided personal information to us, please contact us at privacy@teadocumentary.com. Before we remove any information, we may request proof of identification to prevent the malicious removal of account information. If we discover that we have collected personal information from a child under the age of 13 other than in a manner authorized by law, we will delete that information from our records within a reasonable period of time.

14. THIRD-PARTY LINKS AND SERVICES

Our Website may contain links to other websites (“Linked Sites”), including streaming platforms, social media networks, and partner sites. The Linked Sites are not under our control, and we are not responsible for the contents, privacy practices, or any other aspect of any Linked Site, including any link contained in a Linked Site, or any changes or updates to a Linked Site. We are providing these links to you as a convenience, and the inclusion of any link does not imply endorsement by us of the site or any association with its operators.

We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any Linked Sites or third-party services before providing them with your personal information.

15. CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY

As our practices, policies, and processes change from time to time, this Privacy Policy is expected to change as well. We reserve the right to amend this Privacy Policy at any time, in our sole discretion, by posting the amended Privacy Policy on our Website. Any changes will apply to personal information collected after the publication of the new Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy supersedes all previous versions.

If we make material changes to this Privacy Policy that affect how we use or disclose your personal information, we will provide reasonable advance notice — for example, by posting a prominent notice on our Website or, where appropriate, by sending you an email to the email address on file. Your continued use of our Website and services after any change to this Privacy Policy will constitute your acceptance of the change.

We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically to stay informed of our updates.

16. GOVERNING LAW

This Privacy Policy is governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict of laws provisions. Any disputes arising from this Privacy Policy will be resolved in the courts of the State of Delaware, except where superseded by applicable data protection law that grants you additional rights or forums.
