Please be sure to read this entire Privacy Policy and our Terms and Conditions carefully before using or submitting information to the Site or otherwise providing us with your personal information.
By accessing or using the Site, you consent to the terms of this Privacy Policy and the Terms and Conditions. If you do not consent to the collection, use, and disclosure of your personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy, do not use our services, access the Site, or provide us with any information.
These practices may be changed, but any changes will be posted and changes will only apply to activities and information on a going forward, not retroactive basis. You are encouraged to review the Privacy Policy whenever you visit the Site to make sure that you understand how any information you provide will be used.
A. Collection of Information
We collect personally identifiable information you provide to us (“Personal Information”). For example, we collect your name, and email address. We never sell your information to any other company or agency. Below, we describe more specifically how we collect your information and what we do with it.
We automatically collect information, including personal information, about the services you use and how you use them. This information is necessary for the adequate performance of the contract between you and us, to enable us to comply with legal obligations and given our legitimate interest in being able to provide and improve the functionalities of the Site and our services.
We may collect information, including personal information, that others provide about you, or obtain information from other sources and combine that with information we collect. We do not control, supervise, or respond for how the third parties providing your information process your personal data, and any information request regarding the disclosure of your personal information to us should be directed to such third parties.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, we may receive additional information about you, such as demographic data or fraud detection information, from third party service providers and/or partners, and combine it with information we have about you. For example, we may receive background check results (with your consent where required) or fraud warnings from service providers like identity verification services for our fraud prevention and risk assessment efforts
B. Use of Your Information
We may aggregate, evaluate, and use Anonymous Information to improve the Site and our business, and we may provide it to third parties. We may use cookies, IP addresses, or other Anonymous Information to analyse trends, administer the Site, track customer website navigation, gather broad demographic information, and make the Site better for you.
Gathering Personal Information about our users allows us to serve you better. We will never use your Personal Information in a way that is prohibited by applicable law. Here are some ways in which we might use your Personal Information:
C. Sharing Your Information
DZ may disclose your information, including personal information, to courts, law enforcement or governmental authorities, or authorised third parties, if and to the extent we are required or permitted to do so by law or if such disclosure is reasonably necessary: (i) to comply with our legal obligations; (ii) to comply with legal process and to respond to claims asserted against DZ; (iii) to respond to verified requests relating to a criminal investigation or alleged or suspected illegal activity or any other activity that may expose us, you, or any other of our users to legal liability; (iv) to enforce and administer our Terms & Conditions; or (v) to protect the rights, property, or personal safety of DZ, its employees, or members of the public. Where appropriate, we may notify you about legal requests unless: (i) providing notice is prohibited by the legal process itself, by court order we receive, or by applicable law; or (ii) we believe that providing notice would be futile, ineffective, create a risk of injury or bodily harm to an individual or group, or create or increase a risk of fraud upon DZ.
From time to time, we may employ companies and individuals to perform certain services on our behalf (such as conducting audits, performing legal services, processing credit card payments, or providing customer service). These third-party service providers may have access to Personal Information, but only to the extent required to perform their assigned roles, and they may not use your Personal Information for any other reasons.
Where you have provided consent, we may share your information, including personal information, as described at the time of consent.
We may transfer any information, including your Personal Information, in the event of a transfer of ownership, assets, securities, or bankruptcy involving us and in connection with business transactions such as buying or selling subsidiaries or engaging in joint ventures with third parties; provided, however, that we will use reasonable efforts to direct the transferee to use any transferred information, including your Personal Information, in a manner that is consistent with this Privacy Policy.
D. Your Rights
You may exercise any of the rights described in this section by contacting DZ through the contact information provided at the end of this Privacy Policy. Please note that we may ask you to verify your identity before taking further action on your request.
Through your account you can manage certain settings, such as to subscribe or unsubscribe to content.
You have the right to ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete personal information concerning you.
In some jurisdictions, applicable law may entitle you to request copies of your personal information held by us. You may also be entitled to request copies of personal information that you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format and/or request us to transmit this information to another service provider (where technically feasible).
We generally retain your personal information for as long as is necessary for the performance of a contract between you and us, for our legitimate business interests, or to comply with our legal obligations. If you no longer want us to use your information you can request that we erase your personal information. Please note that if you request the erasure of your personal information:
Where you have provided your consent to the processing of your personal information by DZ you may withdraw your consent at any time by changing your Account Settings or by sending a communication to DZ specifying which consent you are withdrawing. Please note that the withdrawal of your consent does not affect the lawfulness of any processing activities based on such consent before its withdrawal. Additionally, in some jurisdictions, applicable law may give you the right to limit the ways in which we use your personal information, in particular where (i) you contest the accuracy of your personal information; (ii) the processing is unlawful and you oppose the erasure of your personal information; (iii) we no longer need your personal information for the purposes of the processing, but you require the information for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims; or (iv) you have objected to the processing and pending the verification whether the legitimate grounds of DZ override your own.
In some jurisdictions, applicable law may entitle you to require DZ not to process your personal information for certain specific purposes (including profiling) where such processing is based on legitimate interest. If you object to such processing, DZ will no longer process your personal information for these purposes unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for such processing or such processing is required for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
Where your personal information is processed for direct marketing purposes, you may, at any time, ask DZ to cease processing your data for these direct marketing purposes.
You have the right to lodge complaints about the data processing activities carried out by DZ before the competent data protection authorities.
E. Protection of Your Information
To prevent unauthorised access to, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information, we have put in place commercially reasonable physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online. However, no security system is perfect, and we cannot guarantee that information you provide to us over the Internet will remain private. We also cannot guarantee that information you transmit to us over the Internet will not be intercepted.

For now, third parties may collect personally identifiable information about your online activities over time and across different websites when you use our Site.
H. Changes to this Privacy Policy
The Internet is constantly changing, as is the nature of our Internet business operations, so we will likely need to change this Privacy Policy from time to time.
