Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Peregra Consulting HK Limited ("Peregra", "we", "us") is committed to protecting your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, hold and disclose personal data in accordance with the Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance (Cap. 486) of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (the "PDPO") and its six Data Protection Principles. Peregra is the data user responsible for your personal data.

2. Personal data we collect

• Contact details you provide, such as name, job title, company, email address and telephone number;
• The content of correspondence you send us;
• Information needed to deliver our services and meet our legal obligations, such as know-your-client information;
• Technical data collected automatically when you visit the website, such as IP address, browser type and pages visited.

3. Purposes of collection

We collect and use personal data for the following purposes:

• responding to enquiries and communicating with you;
• providing, managing and improving our consulting services;
• administering client relationships, billing and record keeping;
• complying with legal, regulatory and anti-money-laundering obligations in Hong Kong SAR;
• maintaining the security and performance of our website.

Providing personal data is voluntary, but if you do not provide it we may be unable to respond to you or provide our services.

4. Direct marketing

We will not use your personal data for direct marketing, or provide it to others for that purpose, without your prior consent as required under Part 6A of the PDPO. You may withdraw consent at any time, free of charge, by contacting us.

5. Disclosure of personal data

We do not sell personal data. We may disclose it, on a need-to-know basis, to:

• affiliated companies and professional advisers assisting in delivering our services;
• service providers such as IT, hosting and communications providers, under confidentiality obligations;
• courts, regulators or law enforcement authorities where required by law.

6. Transfers outside Hong Kong SAR

Given the multi-jurisdictional nature of our work, personal data may be transferred to and processed in places outside Hong Kong SAR. Where this occurs, we take reasonable steps to ensure the data receives a level of protection comparable to that under the PDPO.

7. Retention

We keep personal data no longer than necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including any legal, accounting or reporting requirements, after which it is securely deleted or anonymised.

8. Security

We take all practicable steps to protect personal data against unauthorised or accidental access, processing, erasure, loss or use, including technical and organisational safeguards.

9. Cookies

The website may use cookies and similar technologies essential for its operation and to understand how it is used. You can disable cookies in your browser settings, although some features may not function properly.

10. Your rights: access and correction

Under the PDPO you have the right to request access to, and correction of, personal data we hold about you. Requests should be made in writing to the contact below. We will respond within 40 days as required by the PDPO and may charge a reasonable fee for processing a data access request.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The latest version will always be published on this page.
