Purposes

We use personal data to respond to briefing requests, prepare proposals, perform contracted advisory work, improve site reliability, and meet legal obligations.

Legal bases

Retention

Briefing inquiries are retained up to 24 months unless an engagement begins, in which case records follow the retention period in the engagement file (typically up to seven years for accounting and dispute needs). Server logs are rotated on a shorter operational schedule.

Sharing

We use infrastructure and email providers who process data on our instructions. We do not sell personal data. We may disclose information when required by Taiwanese authorities or to protect legal rights.

International transfers

If a processor stores or accesses data outside Taiwan, we take reasonable contractual and organizational steps appropriate to the transfer. By contacting us you acknowledge that communications may transit networks outside Taiwan.

Your rights

Subject to PDPA and applicable law, you may request access, correction, deletion, or restriction of your personal data, and you may inquire about our processing. Contact info@toolridgebase.click. You may also lodge a complaint with the competent Taiwanese authority.
