At Belmandi Advisory Services, we consider your privacy paramount and are dedicated to safeguarding and preserving the confidentiality of personal information entrusted to us.

Disclosure
Belmandi Advisory Services gathers personal data as described below for specified purposes and durations. We do not engage in the sale of your personal information or share it for cross-context behavioral advertising ("Data Sharing"). Furthermore, we refrain from collecting or processing sensitive personal data to infer characteristics about you. If you provide Belmandi Advisory Services with personal data of other individuals, it is your responsibility to inform them of this statement.
Applicability of this Statement
This statement applies to personal data that Belmandi Advisory Services collects and/or utilizes in its capacity as a data controller, as defined by the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and similar legislation (e.g., Brazil's Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados, DIFC Data Protection Law 2020, etc.). California residents should refer to the specific section addressing their rights. The circumstances under which we may collect personal data are explained in the "Data Collection Scenarios" section below. When providing services to clients, we may process personal data as a data processor (e.g., hosting client data on our e-Discovery platforms). In such cases, we process information solely on our clients' instructions, who maintain control over the data. Therefore, if our use of your personal data is not covered by this statement, you may need to contact the client (acting as the data controller) on whose behalf we process your information. For the purposes of these privacy practices, "personal information" refers to data relating to an identified or identifiable person or that can be reasonably linked, directly or indirectly, to a particular individual or household.

Data Protection Measures
Belmandi Advisory Services has implemented appropriate technical safeguards, security protocols, and procedures to protect personal data from loss, misuse, unauthorized modification, or destruction.

Data Retention Policy
Belmandi Advisory Services retains your personal data for the duration necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, for any subsequent compatible purposes we identify, or for any new purposes to which you subsequently consent, or to comply with legal, regulatory, and Belmandi Advisory Services policy requirements. This retention period typically corresponds to the length of your relationship or the relevant contract with Belmandi Advisory Services, plus a period reflecting the time during which legal claims may be made following the termination of that relationship or contract. Certain information (e.g., call records, tax documents, and specific information required to demonstrate compliance with legal obligations) may need to be retained for extended periods. Personal data may be retained for shorter or longer durations where required by law or Belmandi Advisory Services policy, where the information is subject to a legal hold (e.g., following a notice from our regulator), or where we have determined through a data protection impact assessment that a different retention period is appropriate.
