Welcome

We’re glad you chose to visit the MINEXForum.com site created and managed by Advantix Ltd! We care about your privacy and the information you share with us and want you to understand how we are using and protecting the information we collect about you. Advantix is respectful of data privacy and adopts best practices in compliance with applicable privacy laws and regulations, including the EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”).

Use of this website

This privacy policy describes the information we collect from you and how it may be stored and processed outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”) and across the Advantix Network as described below.

This website, and associated Advantix events and publications provide products, content, and services for a professional and consumer audience and are not intended for individuals under the age of 13 years old. We do not knowingly collect or store personal data provided by anyone under 13 years of age.

If you are a European Union (EU) resident, please note that there are a number of provisions in this privacy policy that apply uniquely to you.

Third-Party Websites and Apps

Our app may contain links to other third-party websites or you may access Apps from a third-party site. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of these third-party sites. The API Client uses YouTube API Services.

International Transfer

We operate internationally and provide our Services to MINEX Forum users worldwide allowing them to communicate with each other across the globe. That means that your personal information may need to be processed in countries where data protection and privacy regulations may not offer the same level of protection as in your home country. We have put in place appropriate safeguards (such as contractual commitments) in accordance with applicable legal requirements to ensure that your data is adequately protected. For more information on the appropriate safeguards in place, please contact us at the details below.

Your Choices

Every now and then, MINEX Forum may send you updates about the administration and operation of the Service (for example, about your transactions, policy changes, technical issues, etc.). We may also send notifications about offerings by MINEX Forum or third parties, that we think may be of interest to you. If you do not wish to receive such notifications, you may adjust your system settings to decline them.

What information do we collect

Advantix collects data about you that is limited to the kind of information that can be found on a typical business card: first name, last name, job title, employer/company name, work address, work email, and work phone number. In some cases, we may ask you to provide additional professional information such as the size of the company you work for, and industry type.

To enhance and/or update the information that you have provided to us, we may combine it with professional information or personal data that we collect from third-party sources. The personal data that we refer to in this document is the personal and professional information you provide, as well as information that we obtain from third-party sources, both of which we typically combine as one user record.

This site also collects and stores certain information automatically using cookies and similar technologies, including IP addresses, the region or general location of a computer or device accessing the internet, browser type, operating system, page view history, and other usage information. See our Cookie Policy for further details.

However, to the extent that any cookie can uniquely identify a computer, mobile device, or tablet (“Device”), or the person using that Device, and you are an EU resident, under the GDPR, this is personal data. Therefore, this privacy policy shall apply to such personal data collected by Advantix.

Accessing, Reviewing, and Changing Your Personal Information

In case you have created a user or company account on this website, you can review and change personal information at any time by accessing your account or contacting our support. Please be sure to update your personal information promptly if it changes or becomes inaccurate. We may retain some information from closed accounts so that we can comply with the law, prevent fraud, assist with investigations, resolve disputes, analyse, or troubleshoot programs, enforce our Terms of Use, or take other actions permitted by law. Likewise, if your account or membership is terminated or suspended, we may maintain some information to prevent you from re-registering.

How we collect it

We may collect your personal data when you register to receive any of the products, content, or services offered by Advantix or its third-party sponsors (“sponsors”) such as publications, subscriptions, contests, newsletters, memberships, premium content, webcasts, video, white papers, online seminars, conferences and events.

What happens if you don’t provide personal data?

In order for us to provide the products, content or services you request, we need your personal data. Therefore, if you do not provide such personal data, we cannot deliver the products, content or services.

MINEX Forum Network

This website is one of many that Advantix and its partners of undertakings operate, all of which we collectively refer to as the MINEX Forum Network. Where permitted by law, we may share the personal data we collect about you with another Advantix Network company so that we can provide you with information about products, content and services that might interest you, and for internal analytical and business development purposes. Please click here for a list of the online and print publications included in the MINEX Forum Network.

How do we safeguard your personal data?

Security of your personal data

Advantix maintains safeguards which include technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data from loss, misuse, unauthorized use, access, inadvertent disclosure, alteration, and destruction, and we require the third parties we contract with to support Advantix’s business operations to employ reasonable security measures as well (see “When and how we share your information with others” below).

We update and test security on an ongoing basis and restrict access to your personal data to only those who need to know in order to provide Advantix’s products, content or services to you.

Storage of your personal data

We may store your personal data using Advantix’s own secure on-site servers or other internally hosted technology. Your personal data may also be stored by third parties, via cloud services or other technology, to whom Advantix has contracted, to support Advantix’s business operations (see “When and how we share your information with others” below).

These third parties do not use or have access to your personal data other than for cloud storage and retrieval, and Advantix requires such parties to employ at least the same level of security that we use to protect your personal data (see “Security of your personal data” above).

What we do with the personal data we collect

We use the personal data that we collect to communicate with you, deliver what you request, improve our service, and to present other information and offers that may be of interest.

To communicate with you

We may use your personal data to send you important notices, such as communications about your registration, transactions, and changes to Advantix’s terms, conditions, policies, and/or other internal purposes.

To deliver what you request

We may use your personal data to provide the products, content or services you request. If you enter a sweepstake, contest, or similar Advantix promotion, we may use your personal data to administer such promotion.

To improve our service

We may use your personal data for auditing, data analysis, and research to improve Advantix’s products, content and services.

To present offers that may be of interest to you

We may contact you to offer you additional Advantix or third-party products, content or services that may be of interest to you.

The legal basis we have for processing your personal data

The GDPR requires data collectors, such as Advantix, to have a legal basis to use the personal data of EU residents. Therefore, this section shall apply to any such personal data collected by Advantix.

Advantix uses the personal data that you provide to supply you with high-quality products, content and services as you request, to send important notices, and for internal purposes such as auditing, data analysis, and research to provide you with the information you need to make the most informed decisions.

We may also use your personal data to offer you products, content or services that may be of interest to you, based upon your interests or the preferences you shared with us, and may share your personal data with third-party sponsors of content, events, and other services or offers.

The legal basis for processing your personal data is your consent. In certain circumstances, we may otherwise process your personal data if Advantix has a legitimate interest in doing so and Advantix is not infringing any of your rights and freedoms.

When Advantix processes your personal data for Advantix’s legitimate interests, Advantix will consider and balance any potential impact on you and your rights under data protection and any other relevant law. Our legitimate business interests do not override your interests.

Updates to this Policy

From time to time, as our services evolve, we may update this Policy. You agree that we may notify you about material changes in the way we treat personal information by placing a notice on the App. Please check the App frequently for updates.
