6.1. Obtaining Consent


Before we collect, use or disclose your data, we will notify you of the purpose of data collection. We will obtain verbal confirmation from you on your expressed consent, with an acknowledgment sent via email/text afterward. We will not collect more personal data necessary for the stated purpose. We will seek fresh approval from you if your original purpose for collecting, using, or disclosing your data has changed.

6.2. Withdrawal of Consent


If you wish to withdraw consent, you should give us reasonable advance notice. We will advise you of the likely consequences of your withdrawal of consent, e.g., without your personal contact information, we may not be able to inform you of future employment opportunities with Humareso or with Humareso’s clients.


Your request for withdrawal of consent can take the form of an email to us. To withdraw consent, please send a written request for withdrawal of support via email to our Data Protection Officer (DPO) at dpo@humareso.com.

 

  1. How We Ensure the Accuracy of Your Personal Data


We will take reasonable steps to ensure that the personal data we collect about you is accurate, complete, and up-to-date. From time to time, we may do a data verification exercise for you to update us on any changes to the personal data we hold about you. If we are in an ongoing relationship with you, it is essential that you update us on any changes to your data (such as a change in your mailing address).

 

  1. How We Protect Your Personal Data


We have implemented appropriate information security and technical measures (such as data encryption, firewalls, and secure network protocols) to protect the personal data we hold about you against loss, misuse; destruction; unauthorized alteration/modification, access, disclosure, or similar risks.


We have also put in place reasonable and appropriate organizational measures to maintain the confidentiality and integrity of your data. We will only share your data with authorized persons on a “need to know” basis.

 

  1. How We Retain Your Personal Data


We have a document retention policy that keeps track of the retention schedules of the personal data you provide us in paper or electronic forms. We will not retain any of your information when it is no longer needed for business or legal purposes.


When the retention limit is reached, we will dispose of or destroy such documents containing your data correctly and securely.

 

  1. How You Can Access and Make Corrections to Your Personal Data


You may write to us to find out what personal data about you we have in our possession or control and how it may have been used and disclosed by us in the previous year. Before we accept your request, we may need to verify your identity by checking your NRIC or another legal identification document. We will respond to your request as soon as possible or within 30 days from the date we receive your request. If we are unable to do so within 30 days, we will let you know and give you an estimate of how much longer we require. We may also charge you a reasonable fee for the cost involved in processing your access request.


If you find the personal data we hold about you is inaccurate, incomplete, or not up-to-date, you may ask us to correct the data. Where we are satisfied on reasonable grounds that a correction should be made, we will update the data as soon as possible or within 30 days from the date we receive your request.

Suppose we need to transfer your data to another organization outside of Singapore (e.g., our subsidiaries within Asia). In that case, we will ensure that the recipient country's data protection standard is comparable to that of Singapore’s PDPA. If this is not so, we will enter into a contractual agreement with the receiving party to accord similar levels of data protection as that in Singapore.
