4. Legal Basis for Processing (for GDPR applicability)

If you are in the EU/EEA, our legal basis for collecting and using the personal data described above will depend on the personal data concerned and the specific context in which we collect it. We will normally collect personal data from you only:

  • Where we need the personal data to perform a contract with you (e.g., to provide our industrial solutions).
  • Where the processing is in our legitimate interests and not overridden by your data protection interests or fundamental rights and freedoms (e.g., for business operations, security, or service improvement).
  • Where we have your consent to do so (e.g., for marketing communications or collecting specific sensor data).
  • Where we need to comply with a legal obligation.

5. Data Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell your personal data. We may share your information in the following circumstances:

  • Service Providers: With trusted third-party vendors, consultants, and other service providers who perform services on our behalf, such as industrial cloud hosting partners (primarily located in India, with robust data protection agreements), payment processors, analytics providers, and IT support. These providers are authorized to use your personal data only as necessary to provide these services to us.
  • Business Partners: With authorized equipment manufacturers or distributors if necessary for providing integrated solutions, support, or warranty services related to your equipment.
  • Legal Requirements and Law Enforcement: If required by law, such as to comply with a subpoena, or similar legal process, or when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, protect your safety or the safety of others, investigate fraud, or respond to a government request from Indian courts, regulatory bodies, or other competent authorities.
  • Business Transfers: In connection with, or during negotiations of, any merger, sale of company assets, financing, or acquisition of all or a portion of our business by another company. We will notify you before your personal data is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
  • With Your Consent: We may share your information for other purposes with your explicit consent.

5.1 International Data Transfers

Your information, including personal data, may be transferred to — and maintained on — computers located outside of your state, province, country, or other governmental jurisdiction where the data protection laws may differ from those in your jurisdiction. For our global clients, especially those in the EU/EEA, if we transfer your personal data outside of India (e.g., to a sub-processor in another country), we will ensure appropriate safeguards are in place as required by GDPR. These may include:

  • Transferring to countries deemed to provide an adequate level of data protection by the European Commission.
  • Using Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission.
  • Implementing Binding Corporate Rules (BCRs) for intra-group transfers.
  • Relying on other valid transfer mechanisms under GDPR.

Our industrial cloud hosting partners for core data are primarily located in India.

6. Data Security

We implement robust technical and organizational security measures designed to protect your personal data from unauthorized access, use, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include:

  • Encryption: Industrial-grade encryption for data in transit (e.g., TLS/SSL) and at rest.
  • Access Controls: Strict access controls limiting data access to authorized personnel on a need-to-know basis, with role-based permissions.
  • Regular Audits: Periodic security assessments and audits, compliant with ISO 27001 standards.
  • Secure Data Centers: Use of secure data centers with physical and environmental security measures, primarily located in Mumbai and Bangalore, India.
  • Incident Response Plan: Procedures in place to promptly address any data breaches or security incidents.
  • Employee Training: Regular data protection and security training for our employees.

While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your Personal Data, no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

7. Data Retention

We will retain your personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy. The criteria used to determine our retention periods include:

  • The length of time we have an ongoing relationship with you and provide Services to you (e.g., for as long as you have an account with us or keep using our services).
  • Whether there is a legal obligation to which we are subject (e.g., certain laws require us to keep records of your transactions for a certain period before we can delete them).
  • Whether retention is advisable in light of our legal position (such as in regard to applicable statutes of limitations, litigation or regulatory investigations).
  • For technical data from equipment sensors, retention periods may vary based on client agreements and the specific purpose of data collection (e.g., ongoing performance monitoring vs. short-term diagnostics).

When we no longer need to retain your personal data, we will securely delete or anonymize it.

8. Your Rights (Data Principal Rights)

Depending on your location and applicable data protection laws (including India's DPDPA and GDPR for EU/EEA individuals), you may have the following rights regarding your personal data:

  • Right to Access: To request access to and receive a copy of your personal data that we hold.

  • Right to Restrict Processing: To request the restriction of processing of your personal data in certain circumstances.
  • Right to Data Portability: (Primarily under GDPR) To receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format and to transmit this data to another controller.

  • Rights related to Automated Decision-Making and Profiling: (Primarily under GDPR) To not be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you, except under certain conditions.

How to Exercise Your Rights: To exercise any of these rights, please contact our Data Protection Officer using the contact details provided in Section 11 ("Contact Us"). We will respond to your request in accordance with applicable law and within the prescribed time limits. We may need to verify your identity before processing your request.
