We at MINSK Building Material Trading L.L.C. and its parents, subsidiaries and divisions (“us”, “we”, “our”, or “MINSK BMT”) understand that you are entrusting us with your information when you use our services and we take your privacy concerns seriously.
This Privacy Policy (“Policy”) is meant to help you understand what information we collect from you or that you may be asked to provide when you visit our website, visit one of our branches, call, email or other electronic or written communications with us, or request other products or services from us (collectively, the “Services”), why we collect it, and how you can update, manage, and delete your information. By using the Services, you consent to the practices described in this Policy, unless further consent is required by applicable law.
Please read this Policy together with any service-specific or location-specific privacy notices that we may provide. Those notices supplement this Policy, and to the extent they differ from this Policy, the notices shall govern.
Personal Information We Collect
We collect information to provide better products and services to all of our customers and vendors — from figuring out what type of products you prefer to your ideal customer experience preferences. The information we collect, and how that information is used, depends on which Products you request from us.
Generally speaking, your “personal information” includes your unique identifiers (for example, full name, phone number, country or city you are accessing the website from or email address); and information about your characteristics, conditions or behavior that is associated with one of your identifiers or could otherwise reasonably be linked to you. “Non-personal information,” on the other hand, is information that has been anonymized or de-identified such that it cannot reasonably be linked to an individual.
The personal information that we may collect includes:
Information You Provide to Us.
We may ask you for some or all of the types of information listed below when you open an account with us; request a quote from us; fill out our credit applications; subscribe to our newsletters; search, shop for, or purchase our products and services; request or submit payments to or from us; or directly contact us with questions or feedback:
Contact information
We may collect the names of our customers and vendors. Additionally, we may collect phone numbers, email addresses, and other digital contact information. We may also collect information that you provide us about your contractors and your projects.
Payment information
When you purchase our products or services (such as when you make a purchase for safety shoes), we collect information about the purchase or transaction. This includes payment information, such as your bank account number, transaction numbers, cheque numbers (credited to us) or your Registered TRN number; along with other account and authentication information; and billing, shipping and contact details. When you inquire for credit payments, we might collect information related to your inquiry.
Demographic information
We may collect information about products or services you like.
Location information
If you purchase our products for delivery, we may collect location data of your jobs. If you use our websites, we may collect location data obtained from your IP address.
Job Application Information
Information you submit in connection with a job application, including the types of information described above, plus other examples such as employment status; employment history; education information; references; resume; immigration status and ability to work legally in the UAE; personal or family employment affiliation with Minsk Building Material trading L.L.C.; criminal record; and — on a voluntary basis, for our Equal Employment Opportunity compliance purposes for jobs located in the UAE.
If you decline to provide requested information, we may not be able to provide one or more Products or Services to you.
Information Logged Automatically. When you access and use our website, computer servers may automatically log certain information about you or your device, including:
Some of this information is recorded through the use of “cookies” and similar technologies.
Information We Collect by Automated Means Offline. We use video monitoring and recording at MINSK’s branches to enhance security and protect against theft and other crimes.
Information Received From Other Sources. We may obtain information about you from other sources, including service providers. We combine such information with information we may have collected about you. To the extent the information, alone or in combination, constitutes personal information, we will treat it as personal information as described in this Policy. We are not responsible for the accuracy of any information provided by third parties.
How We Use Personal Information
We may use your personal information for a variety of purposes, including to:
How We Share Personal Information
We do not sell personal information. We do not disclose your personal information to others except as follows:
Quality and Retention of Personal Information
We take reasonable steps to keep the personal information we possess accurate and to delete incorrect or unnecessary personal information. We retain personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Policy or otherwise communicated to you, unless a longer period is required by applicable law.
Data Security
In order to safeguard personal information against unauthorized access, removal, theft, or disclosure, we implement and maintain administrative, physical and technical security procedures and practices appropriate to the nature of the information and reasonable in light of industry standards and our particular operations, risks and resources. We regularly assess the performance and adequacy of those procedures and practices and will adjust them when new standards, operations or risks require it. Unfortunately, in our increasingly connected digital world, no one can guarantee perfect data security, and we cannot promise that our procedures and practices will always prevent a breach of personal information. Should we detect such a breach, we will promptly notify affected individuals, third parties and law enforcement agencies as required by applicable law.
We encourage you to help maximize security by applying your own personal security measures.
“Do Not Track” Signals
The web browsers and applications that you use to visit our Website and Services may provide certain “Do Not Track” capabilities. Generally, browsers that have these features enabled send a signal to websites that inform the site operator that you do not wish for the site to track you. We do not respond to these signals because there is not yet a common understanding of how to process these signals or a consensus on what “tracking” means.
Links to Social Media and Other Third Party Services
Our Services may contain links to third-party websites, products or services. For example, our websites contain links provided by Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and other social media platforms that you can use to post directly from our website. Information collected by those third parties is governed by their privacy policies, not ours. We encourage you to learn about the privacy practices of those third parties.
Protecting Children’s Privacy Online
Our Services are not intended for children (individuals under the age of 13). We do not knowingly collect, maintain, or process personal information from children without parental consent.
Changes to This Statement
We will update this Policy at least once every 12 months to reflect changes in applicable law, our privacy practices, or our Services. We will notify you of material changes, and you should periodically review this Policy to remain aware of our current practices.
