Introduction
We, PercepTech.AI Pte Ltd (“PercepTech”), hereby inform you that we are committed to safeguarding your privacy. This Data Retention Policy outlines the types of data we collect, reasons for retaining the data and duration for which the data is stored. Our aim is to retain personal data only as long as necessary to fulfill its intended purpose, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes and enforce agreements. Our policy promotes transparency and accountability in data management practices. We openly communicate our retention policy to users, ensuring they understand how their data is handled. This shows our dedication towards our commitment to privacy and data protection.
Data security and retention
We use a combination of technical, physical, and logical safeguards to secure your data. These safeguards include encryption of data in transit and at rest, access controls to restrict unauthorized personnel, secure network configuration and network security monitoring including intrusion detection/prevention, data transfer restrictions, staff security training and confidentiality agreements, regular third-party audits and penetration testing, and several other measures. We determine retention periods based on factors such as the type and sensitivity of the data, its intended purposes, legal requirements (such as statutes of limitations), and our legitimate business interests (like record-keeping and security).
We retain personal data only as long as needed to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy, unless a longer period is required by law. Some retention considerations include:
- Duration of your account and use of our Services
- Applicable statutes of limitations
- Contractual obligations with customers
- Legal holds required for litigation or investigations
After the expiration of the retention period, we securely delete or anonymize personal data, ensuring it cannot be reconstructed or read. Anonymized data may be retained for statistical and analytical purposes without additional notice. We regularly review and update our retention policy to align with changes in business operations, legal requirements, and industry standards. This guarantees that our procedures continue to be pertinent and efficient in upholding the privacy and security of our users.

- Prior to retaining any personal data, we obtain explicit consent from users. We inform them about the duration of retention specified in our data retention policy and the reasons for it.
