Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy governs how Sound Affairs Pte Ltd. (“SA”) collects, uses, discloses, transfers and stores your information under the Personal Data Protection Act 2012 (“PDPA”).

 

Collection and Use of Personal Data

Under the PDPA, personal data is information that can be used to identify an individual (“personal data”).

You may be asked to provide your personal data any time you are in contact with SA or an SA-affiliated company. SA and its affiliates may share this personal data with each other and use it in ways consistent with this Privacy Policy. They may also combine it with other information to provide and improve our products, services, content and advertising. You are not required to provide the personal data that we have requested, but if you chose not to do so, in many cases we will not be able to provide you with our products or services, or to respond to any queries you may have.

Here are some examples of the types of personal data SA may collect and how we may use it:

 

What Personal Data we collect

When you purchase a product, register an account with the e-commerce store, register a warranty, sign-up for a mailing list, contact us, participate in an online survey (among other things), we may collect a variety of information, including your name, phone number, email address, NRIC/passport number and shipping address.

When sending gift certificates and products to your family and friends, or invite others to participate in SA services or forums, SA may collect the information you provide about those people—such as their name, mailing address, email address and phone number. SA will use such information to fulfil your requests, to provide the relevant product or service.

The personal data we collect allows you to purchase products from the e-commerce store.

 

How we use your Personal Data

We use your personal data to keep you posted on SA latest product announcements and upcoming events. If you do not want to be on our mailing list, you can opt out at any time by writing to Sales@mysoundaffairs.com.

We also use your personal data to help us create, develop, operate, deliver and improve our products, services, content and advertising.

We may use your personal data to verify your identity, assist with identification of users and determine appropriate services.

From time to time, we may use your personal data to send important notices, such as communications about purchases and changes to our terms, conditions and policies. Because this information is important to your interaction with SA, you may not opt out of receiving these communications.

We may also use personal data for internal purposes such as auditing, data analysis and research, to improve SA products, services and customer communications.

If you enter into a sweepstake, contest or similar promotion, we may use the information you provide to administer those programs.

 

Collection and Use of Non-Personal Data

We also collect data in a form that does not, on its own, permit direct association with any specific individual. We may collect, use, transfer and disclose non-personal data for any purpose. The following is an example of non-personal data that we collect and how we may use it:

We may collect information regarding customer activities on our website, www.mysoundaffairs.com and www.plixirpower.com all associated sites linked to www.mysoundaffairs.com by SA, as follows:

https://www.facebook.com/Sound-Affairs-774749289219004/ ;

(collectively, the “Site”).

This information is aggregated and used to help us provide more useful information to our customers, and to understand which parts of our website are of most interest. Aggregated data is considered non-personal data for the purposes of this Privacy Policy.

If we do combine non-personal data with personal data, the combined information will be treated as personal data for as long as it remains combined.

 

Cookies and Other Technologies

SA websites, online services, interactive applications, email messages and advertisements may use ‘cookies’ and other technologies such as pixel tags and web beacons. These technologies help us better understand user behaviour, tell us which parts of our websites people have visited, and facilitate and measure the effectiveness of advertisements and web searches.

We treat information collected by cookies and other technologies as non-personal data. However, to the extent that Internet Protocol (IP) addresses or similar identifiers are considered personal data by local law, we also treat these identifiers as personal data. Similarly, to the extent that non-personal data is combined with personal data, we treat the combined information as personal data for the purposes of this Privacy Policy.

SA and our partners also use cookies and other technologies to remember personal data when you use our website and online services. Our goal in these cases is to make your experience with SA more convenient and personal. For example, knowing someone using your computer or device has shopped for a certain product or used a particular service helps us make our advertising and email communications more relevant to your interests.

As is true of most Internet services, we gather some information automatically and store it in log files. This information includes IP addresses, browser type and language, Internet service provider (ISP), referring and exit websites and applications, operating system, date and time stamp, and clickstream data.

We use this information to understand and analyse trends, administer the site, learn about user behaviour on the site, improve our product and services, and gather demographic information about our user base as a whole. SA may use this information in our marketing and advertising services.

 

Disclosure to Third Parties

At times SA may make certain personal data available to strategic partners that work with SA to provide products and services, or that help SA market to customers. Personal data will only be shared by SA to provide or improve our products, services and advertising; it will not be shared with third parties for their marketing purposes.

 

Service Providers

SA may share personal data with companies that provide services such as information processing, fulfilling customer orders, delivering products to you, managing and enhancing customer data, providing customer service, assessing your interest in our products and services, and conducting customer research or satisfaction surveys. These companies are obligated to protect your information.

 

Others

It may be necessary—by law, legal process, litigation, and/or requests from public and governmental authorities—for SA to disclose your personal data. We may also disclose information about you if we determine that for purposes of national security, law enforcement or other issues of public importance, disclosure is necessary or appropriate.

We may also disclose information about you if we determine that disclosure is reasonably necessary to enforce our terms and conditions, or protect our operations or users.

Additionally, in the event of a reorganisation, merger or sale, we may transfer any and all personal data we collect to the relevant third party.

 

Protection of Personal Data

SA takes the security of your personal data very seriously. SA online services, such as the SA e-commerce store (www.mysoundaffairs.com and www.plixirpower.com), protect your personal data during transit using encryption such as SSL Secure Connection, Secure Firewall and Database setups.

 

Integrity and Retention of Personal Data

SA makes it easy for you to keep your personal data accurate, complete and up to date. We will retain your personal data for the period necessary to fulfil the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.

 

Access to Personal Data

For other personal data we hold, we will provide you with access for any purpose—including to request that we correct the data if it is inaccurate, or to delete the data if SA is not required to retain it by law or for legitimate business purposes. We may decline to process requests that are frivolous or vexatious, that jeopardise the privacy of others, that are extremely impractical or for which access is not otherwise required by local law. Access, correction or deletion requests can be made through www.mysoundaffairs.com and www.plixirpower.com.

 

Third-Party Sites and Services

SA websites may contain links to third-party websites, products and services. Our products and services may also use or offer products or services from third parties. Information collected by third parties, which may include such things as contact details, is governed by their privacy practices. We encourage you to learn about the privacy practices of those third parties.

 

Minor

SA cannot distinguish the age of persons who access the Site. Hence, if you are under 18 years old, please obtain consent from your parent or guardian before you access the Site and submit any personal information to us. Should a parent or guardian have reason to believe that a minor has provided SA with personal information without their prior consent, please contact us to ensure that the information is removed and unsubscribe them from any promotional contact opportunities.

 

International Users

All the information you provide may be transferred or accessed by entities around the world as described in this Privacy Policy.

 

Our Company-Wide Commitment to Your Privacy

To make sure your personal data is secure, we communicate our privacy and security guidelines to SA employees and strictly enforce privacy safeguards within the company.

 

Privacy Questions

If you have any questions or concerns about SA’ Privacy Policy or data processing, or if you would like to make a complaint about a possible breach of local privacy laws, please contact our Data Protection Officer at jamessoh@mysoundaffairs.com

SA may update its Privacy Policy from time to time. When we change the policy in a material way, a notice will be posted on our website along with the updated Privacy Policy.
