How We Use Your Personal Data and Legal Basis of Processing

We will only use your personal data in accordance with applicable law and this Privacy Policy. In order to use or otherwise process such personal data, applicable law may require us to inform you of the legal basis upon which we will use or otherwise process your personal data. Most commonly, we will use or process your personal data under one or more of the following legal bases:

Performance of Contract – means processing your personal data (including sharing your personal data with third parties) where it is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party or to take steps at your request before entering into such a contract or transaction. For example, processing activities undertaken on the basis of Performance of Contract may include providing you with products, promotions, services, newsletters, and information you request and responding to correspondence that we receive from you inquiring about a purchase you have made or are considering.

Legitimate Interests – means processing personal data (including sharing your personal data with third parties) to the extent it is necessary in pursuing the legitimate interests of our business, including conducting and managing our business, and your interests and fundamental rights do not override those legitimate business interests. For example, processing activities undertaken on the basis of Legitimate Interests may include contacting you via email and otherwise about products, services, and events that we think might be of interest to you, sending you promotional material or special offers on our behalf or on behalf of our Partners and/or their respective affiliates and subsidiaries and other third parties, performing business analyses, providing, maintaining, administering or expanding the Services, or for other internal purposes, in each case, to improve the quality of our business, the Services, and other products and services we offer.

Legally Required – means processing your personal data where it is necessary for compliance with a legal or regulatory obligation that we are subject to, which may vary depending on the laws applicable to us as the party processing the data and you as the data subject.

Consent – means processing your personal data with your express, or where permitted by applicable law, implied, consent to the means and nature of processing we intend to undertake and communicate to you. For example, consent may be required by applicable law in connection with our processing of special categories of personal data or we may seek your consent in connection with our direct marketing efforts.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Privacy Policy, we may use aggregated information and/or other de-identified information for any reason at our sole discretion, to the extent permitted by applicable law. How We Share Information

Links To Other Web Sites or Mobile Applications

The Site and/ or other aspects of the Services may contain links to other websites or online services that are operated and maintained by third parties and that are not controlled or otherwise operated or maintained by AICOSPORTS.

We encourage you to review the privacy policies of those third-party websites or online services prior to engaging with them.

Security Measures

We have adopted reasonable and appropriate security procedures to help protect against loss, misuse, and unauthorized access to the information you provide to us. Please note, however, that no data transmission or storage can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.

Where We Store Your Information

We operate the Site and the Services primarily from the United States, and as such, we store your information in data centers located in the United States. In addition, we may store, process and transmit your personal data to other locations around the world to in connection with our provision of the Services, and we may use service providers located in both European Community and elsewhere (Turkey) to help us run our Site or to otherwise provide the Services to you.

If we or our service providers transfer any personal data out of the European Economic Area (EEA), it will only be done with the relevant protection being in place. In particular, when your personal data is transferred outside or inside the EEA, we ensure (i) such transfers are limited only to countries which are recognized as providing an adequate level of legal protection by the European Commission or (ii) one of the specific safeguards approved by the European Commission is in place, such as the Standard Contractual Clauses as approved by the European Commission.

Retention of Your Personal Data

We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements and/or where you have provided your consent to future marketing and other related communications.

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.

By law, we may be required to keep basic information about our customers (including Contact, Identity, Financial and Transaction Data) for up to six years after they cease being customers for tax purposes.

In some circumstances you can ask us to delete your data (please see “Right to be Forgotten” below for further information). In some circumstances we may anonymize your personal data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.

Children’s Privacy

The Site and the Services are not directed at or otherwise authorized for use by children under the age of 16, as set forth in our Terms of Use. As such, we do not knowingly collect, use, or disclose personal information from children under the age of 16, except with the express consent of a parent or guardian of such child. The limited circumstances we might need to collect the personal data of a child include if such information is necessary for the performance of a contract with you (e.g., in connection with your purchase of travel-related services). If we are made aware, we have collected personal information from a child under 16 years old in a manner that is inconsistent with this Privacy Policy and/or the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act, we will delete this information as soon as possible.

Do Not Track

Some web browsers may transmit “do-not-track” signals to the websites with which the user communicates. Because of differences in how web browsers incorporate and activate this feature, it is not always clear whether users intend for these signals to be transmitted, or whether they even are aware of them. Because there currently is no industry standard concerning what, if anything, websites should do when they receive such signals, we currently do not take action in response to these signals.

Your Rights With Respect to Your Personal Data

Under certain circumstances, you have rights under data protection laws in relation to your personal data. Depending on laws applicable to you and your personal data, these rights may include:

The Right of Access –This enables you to receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it.

The Right of Correction –This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate personal data we hold about you corrected.

The Right of Portability –This enables you to obtain a copy of your personal data in a safe and secure way and in a structured and readable format, so that you may use your personal data for your own purposes.

The Right to be Forgotten –This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal data where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your personal data where you have exercised your right to object to certain processing activities (see below). Note, however, that we may not always be able to comply with your request to delete your personal data for specific legal reasons which will be notified to you, if applicable, at the time of your request.

The Right to Object –This enables you to object to any processing activities we are undertaking with respect to your personal data for direct marketing purposes or where we are processing such personal data on the basis of our legitimate interests, and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground. Please note, our processing of your personal data is required in order to allow us to provide you with certain goods or services, so we will be unable to provide such goods or services to you if you elect to object to such processing.

The Right to Restrict Processing –This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of personal data we hold about you, for example, if you want us to establish its accuracy or the reason for processing it.

The Right to Withdraw Consent –This enables you to withdraw your consent to our use of your personal data where we do so in reliance on your consent. Once we have received notification that you have withdrawn your consent, we will no longer use your personal data for the purpose or purposes you originally agreed to, unless we have another legitimate basis for doing so pursuant to applicable law.

If you wish to exercise any of the rights set out above, please contact us at info@aicosports.com. No fee is usually required, meaning you will generally not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights listed above). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request for access is unfounded or excessive. Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with the request in such circumstances. We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is another appropriate security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it.

Changes to this Privacy Policy

Privacy laws and practice are constantly developing. Our policies and procedures are therefore under continual review. We may, from time to time, update this Privacy Policy. Any such changes will be posted on this page. Please check back frequently to see any updates or changes to this Privacy Policy. The date of the most recent updates to this Privacy Policy are set forth at the top of this Privacy Policy.
