OceanSound Partners (“OceanSound” or “The Company” or “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy, and we are committed to protecting it through our compliance with this policy (the “Privacy Policy”), as well as any applicable laws, standards, and regulations governing our collection and use of personal data. We want to be transparent with you regarding the information we collect, how we use and share it, and the controls we give you to access, update, and delete your information. This Privacy Policy sets forth OceanSound’s information collection and use practices for data collected online at the OceanSound website (the “Website”). It does not apply to information collected in connection with our offline activities or to information you provide to third parties, including through any application or content that may link to or be accessible from our website. This policy may change from time to time. Your continued use of the Website after we make changes is deemed to be acceptance of those changes, so please check the Privacy Policy periodically for updates. If you do not agree to this Privacy Policy, do not use the Website or otherwise provide us with your personal information. By using the Website, you are acknowledging that that you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by the Privacy Policy.

Collection and Use of Personal Information

You may view the Website without providing any personal information—such as your name, address, or date of birth— that, alone or in combination with other information, could reasonably be used to identify you.

We only collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to us through the Website. When you provide personal information to us via this or any other means, we will use this information to respond to your requests.

Generally, we do not share the personal information collected through the Website with third parties unless we have obtained your prior permission. However, we may share this information under the following circumstances without prior notice or permission: (i) with our business affiliates; (ii) with agents and contractors that assist us in administering the Website and in providing our products and services to you; (iii) in response to legal process or when we believe in good faith that the law requires it (for example, in response to a court order, subpoena or a law enforcement agency’s request); (iv) to protect the rights, property or safety of OceanSound, the Website, users of the Website and others; or (v) in connection with a transfer or sale of assets or ownership to another entity.

We do not consider the questions, comments, ideas or suggestions you submit to us through the Website to be personal information. By visiting the Website, you understand that we may use any information you transmit to us, subject to applicable law, for any purpose, including reproduction, disclosure, transmission, publication, broadcast and posting.

Use of Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies

Cookies are small pieces of data, stored in text files, that are stored on your computer or other device when you load websites in a browser. Cookies are widely used to “remember” you and your preferences, either for a single visit (“session cookie”) or for multiple repeat visits (using a “persistent cookie”). While we currently do not use cookies on our Website, we may decide to use them in the future. In the event we do decide to use cookies on any Website, we may do so for a number of purposes, such as maintaining continuity during a user session, to gather data about the usage of our Website for research and other purposes and to enable our servers to recognize your computer so that your preferences and/or authentication credentials can be recognized so that you do not have to provide this information every time you return to our Website. You can decide if and how your computer will accept a cookie by configuring your preferences or options in your browser. However, if you choose to reject cookies, you may not be able to use certain of our Website’s features. We may occasionally use other companies to set cookies on our Website and gather cookie information for us. We will use the cookie information gathered by these companies in the same manner as stated above.

Links to Third-Party Websites

OceanSound may place hypertext links on the Website that connect to third party websites. OceanSound has no control over these linked sites or their content. Your use of such linked sites will be subject to such sites’ terms of use and privacy policies and not OceanSound’s, so be sure to read them before using such sites or transmitting any information to such sites.

Measures Taken to Secure Your Data

OceanSound follows generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us. No method of electronic storage, however, is 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially reasonable means to protect any personal information you submit through the Website, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

Your European Data Rights

If you are located in the European Economic Area (“EEA”), Switzerland, or the United Kingdom, subject to applicable law, you may have the following rights in relation to personal information that we hold about you. To exercise these rights and controls, please contact privacy@oceansoundpartners.com.

Access: You have the right to ask for a copy of the personal information that we hold about you free of charge, however we may charge a reasonable fee, if we think that your request is excessive, to help us cover the costs of locating the information you have requested.

Correction: You may notify us of changes to such your personal information if it is inaccurate or it needs to be updated.

Deletion: If you think that we should not be holding or processing your personal information anymore, you may request that we delete it. Please note that this may not always be possible due to legal obligations.

Restrictions on use: You may request that we stop processing your personal information (other than storing it), if: (i) you contest the accuracy of it (until the accuracy is verified); (ii) you believe the processing is against the law; (iii) you believe that we no longer need your data for the purposes for which it was collected, but you still need your data to establish or defend a legal claim; or (iv) you object to the processing, and we are verifying whether our legitimate grounds to process your personal information, override your own rights.

Object: You have the right to object to processing, including: (i) for direct marketing; (ii) for research or statistical purposes; or (iii) where processing is based on legitimate interests. 

Portability: If you wish to transfer your personal information to another organization (and certain conditions are satisfied), you may ask us to do so, and we will send it directly if we have the technical means.

Withdrawal of consent: If you previously gave us your consent (by a clear affirmative action) to allow us to process your personal information for a particular purpose, but you no longer wish to consent to us doing so, you can contact us to let us know that you withdraw that consent.

We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal information (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.

 

If you believe that we have processed your personal information in violation of applicable law and failed to remedy such violation to your reasonable satisfaction, you may also lodge a complaint with the data protection supervisory authority in your country. You can find details for your relevant EU national data protection authority at https://ec.europa.eu/newsroom/article29/item-detail.cfm?item_id=612080.

The hosting facilities for our website and operations are located in the United States. By providing us your data, you consent to its transfer and storage within the U.S. For the purpose of applicable EU laws, such third countries (including the U.S.) may not offer the same level of data protection as your country of residence. For further information about the safeguards used, please contact privacy@oceansoundpartners.com.

If you are located in the United Kingdom, as required under Article 27 UK-GDPR, OceanSound has appointed a representative who can be addressed for all questions related to the processing of personal data of persons in the United Kingdom. If you have a question or concern about how we may process your personal information in this region, please contact privacy@oceansoundpartners.com. You also have the right to make a complaint about us to the UK Information Commissioner’s Office (“ICO”): https://ico.org.uk/global/contact-us/.
