Aggregated, Anonymous or Anonymized Information

Your personal information may be shared if we anonymize and/or aggregate it, as in these circumstances the information will cease to be personal information. We disclose to third-party sponsors/advertisers aggregate statistics (i.e., impressions and click-throughs on a company’s advertisement). Also, we may share aggregate website statistics with the media or other third parties. HRM Asia uses the aggregate, anonymous data collected to let us know the number of impressions or views and the number of “click throughs” on our advertisement(s). HRM Asia also uses this aggregate, anonymous data to perform statistical analyses of the collective characteristics and behaviour of our site visitors; to measure user interests regarding specific areas of HRM Asia Websites; and to analyze how and where best to use our resources.

General Benchmarking and Research Purposes

HRM Asia and its partners may use information disclosed through surveys or otherwise provided to or generated by HRM Asia or partners (collectively “Research Data”) for validation, research and benchmarking purposes and product development. Unless otherwise specified prior to collection, Research Data will be disclosed in the aggregate and presented in anonymous form and will not include (directly or by inference) any information identifying participating organizations or any identifiable individual as the source of such data. Access to Research Data will be restricted to those individuals who need such access to deliver HRM Asia products and/or services.

Social Media Policy & Usage

We adopt a Social Media Policy to ensure our business and our staff conduct themselves appropriately online. While we may have official profiles on social media platforms users are advised to verify authenticity of such profiles before engaging with or sharing information with such profiles. We will never ask for user passwords or personal details on social media platforms. Users are advised to conduct themselves appropriately when engaging with us on social media.

There may be instances where our website features social sharing buttons, which help share web content directly from web pages to the respective social media platforms. You use social sharing buttons at your own discretion and accept that doing so may publish content to your social media profile feed or page.

Third Party Links and Content

HRM Asia’s sponsors, advertisers, and third-party content providers may have links on our sites and newsletters that take you to other websites. Please note that links to other websites are provided throughout HRM Asia websites for users’ information and convenience. HRM Asia hopes that all third parties involved adhere sound policies regarding the privacy of their users. However, this does not cover third-party data collection practices, and HRM Asia does not assume any responsibility for any actions of third parties.

Retention Of Personal Data

HRM Asia may retain your personal data for as long as it is necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected, or as required or permitted by applicable laws.

In general terms, this will mean that your personal information will be kept for the duration of our relationship with you and:

  • the period required by tax and company laws and regulations; and
  • as long as it is necessary for you to be able to bring a claim against us and for us to be able to defend ourselves against any legal claims. This will generally be the length of the relationship plus the length of any applicable statutory limitation period under local laws.
