A cookie is a text file stored by a web server on a computer or mobile device. The content of a cookie can be retrieved or read only by the user or server that creates the cookie. A cookie often consists of identifiers, site names, and some numbers and characters. Cookies are unique to the browsers or applications you use, and enable websites or applications to store data such as your preferences or items in your shopping cart.
Like many other websites or Internet service providers, we use cookies to improve user experience. Cookies allow websites or applications to remember your settings such as language, preferred font size, or other browser preferences. This means that you do not need to set your preferences on every visit. If you disable cookies, websites will treat you as a new visitor every time you load a web page. For example, if you navigate away from a website you are logged in to and then return to it, you will need to log in to it again. We will not use cookies for any purpose other than those mentioned in this Statement. You can manage or delete cookies based on your own preferences. For details, visit AboutCookies.org.

Various browsers may provide their own administrative tools to remove HMTM5 LSOs.

Where certain services are provided by an authorized partner of Digit Events, Digit Events will share your personal data with that partner as described in this policy. For example, when you go online to purchase certain products or services from Digit Events, we must share your personal data with our partners in order to provide you with the corresponding services. In addition, as an international company, we may share personal data between Digit Events sites in other languages.
Digit Events may also disclose your personal data to relevant law enforcement authorities or other government agencies if required to do so by applicable law or in response to legal process. Digit Events may also disclose your data where there is a legitimate need to do so, for example, in order to perform a contract and where we believe that such disclosure is necessary and appropriate to prevent physical harm or damage to property or to investigate possible or actual illegal activity.
IV． How to Access & Control Your Personal Data
We strive to maintain accurate, complete, and up-to-date personal data. Please ensure that all personal data you submit to us is correct.
To the extent required by applicable law, you may (i) have the right to access certain personal data we maintain about you, (ii) request that we update or correct inaccuracies in that data, (iii) object or restrict to our use of your personal data, and (iv) ask us to delete your personal data from our database. To exercise these rights, please contact us. We may require you to provide your request in writing for security purposes. Note that we may decline your request if we reasonably believe that the request is fraudulent, unfeasible, or may jeopardize the privacy of others.
If allowed by applicable laws, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time when we process your personal data based on your consent. However, withdrawal does not affect the legitimacy or effectiveness of how we process your personal data based on your consent before the withdrawal is made; nor does it affect any data processing based on another legal basis other than your consent.
V． How We Protect & Retain Your Personal Data
The security of your personal data is important to us. We use appropriate physical, management, and technical measures to protect your personal data from unauthorized access/disclosure/use/modification, damage, or loss. For example, we use cryptographic technologies for data confidentiality, protection mechanisms to prevent attacks, and access control mechanisms to permit only authorized access to your personal data. We also train our employees on security and privacy protection to ensure they have a solid understanding of personal data protection. Although no security measure can ever guarantee complete security, we are fully committed to protecting your personal data. Therefore, while we will take appropriate measures to protect your personal information, Digit Events cannot determine or guarantee the security of the information you provide to us or obtain from our website, and therefore you should use our website at your own risk. For information on how to report security problems, issues or possible incidents to Digit Events and Digit Events information security team, please contact us via info@digitevents.com. In the event of a personal information security incident, we will promptly inform you and report it to the regulatory authorities in accordance with the requirements of laws and regulations.
We will retain your personal data for no longer than is necessary for the purposes stated in this Statement, unless otherwise extending the retention period is required or permitted by law. The data retention period may vary depending on the scenario, product, and service. The standards we use to determine the retention period include: the time required to retain personal data to fulfill business purposes (including providing products and services; maintaining corresponding transaction and business records; controlling and improving the performance and quality of products and services; ensuring the security of systems, products, and services; handling possible user queries or complaints; and locating problems), whether you agree to a longer retention period, and whether the laws, contracts, and other equivalences have special requirements for data retention. We will maintain your registration information as long as your account is necessary for us to provide you with your desired products and services. You can choose to deregister your account, at which point, we will stop providing you with products and services through your account and delete or anonymize your relevant personal data within a necessary period of time, provided that deletion is not otherwise stipulated by special legal requirements.
VI． How We Process Children's Personal Data
Our websites, applications, products, and services are not intended for children. Children, as defined by local applicable laws, are not allowed to register with or use our websites, applications, products, or services without the consent of a parent or guardian. In cases where personal data of children is collected with parental consent, we will only use or disclose this data as permitted by law, with the explicit consent of the parent or guardian, or as necessary for the protection of the child. If Digit Events becomes aware that it has collected personal data from a child without first obtaining verifiable parental consent, it will seek to delete the data as soon as possible.
VII． Third-Party Providers and Their Services
In the use or experience process, you may receive content or web links from third parties other than Digit Events. Digit Events does not have control over the content or websites after redirection, but you can choose whether to use the links, view the content, or access the products or services provided by third parties.
The personal data you provide on a third-party website is collected and processed solely by the third party, independently from Digit Events's processing activities. Such third parties are not subject to this Statement. Before submitting personal data to them, please read and understand their statements.
VIII． International Transfers of Your Personal Data
Digit Events is an international company. As such, the personal data we collect may be processed or accessed in countries or regions where you use our products or services, or other countries or regions where we or our affiliates, service providers, or business partners are located. Different jurisdictions may have different data protection laws. In addition, because we may not have a data storage center in your country, your personal data may be transferred to a data center outside your country for storage. In such circumstances, we take appropriate measures to ensure that data is processed as required by this Statement and applicable laws. This includes when transferring a data subject's personal data from the EU to a country or region that the European Commission deems as not ensuring an adequate level of data protection. In such cases, we may use various legal mechanisms, such as signing standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission, obtaining the data subject's consent to the cross-border data transfer, or implementing security measures such as anonymizing personal data before cross-border data transfer.
IX． Updates to This Statement
We reserve the right to update or modify this Statement at any time. The Statement published here will always be the latest one. If we make major changes to this Statement, we may notify you through different channels, for example, posting a notice on our website or sending you a direct notice.
