Privacy Policy

LiveFromALounge (“LiveFromALounge.com”, “LiveFromALounge.Plus”, "LFAL," "we," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy applies across all websites that we own and operate, all services we provide, and any other apps or services we may offer, such as events or training “services”. This Privacy Policy governs our data collection, processing and usage practices. It also describes your choices regarding use, access, and correction of your personal information. If you do not agree with the data practices described in this Privacy Policy, you should not use our services.

We will never sell your personal data.

When we say 'personal data', we mean identifiable information about you, like your name, email, address, telephone number, bank account details, payment information, support queries, community comments and so on. If you can’t be identified (for example, when personal data has been aggregated and anonymised), then this notice doesn’t apply. Check out our Terms of Service for more information on how we treat your other data.

This Privacy Policy will help you better understand how we collect, use, and share your personal information. We may need to update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will let you know if the changes are significant, usually through email.

 

Who are ‘we’?

When we refer to ‘we’ (or ‘our’ or ‘us’), that means LiveFromALounge. Our registered office is in Delhi, India.

For European Union data protection purposes, when we act as a controller in relation to your personal data, our Data Protection Officer is our representative and can be contacted at privacy@lfal.net.

How we collect your data

We collect personal data when you visit our websites or use our services. The ways we collect it can be broadly categorised into the following:

  • Information you provide to us directly: When you visit or use some parts of our websites and/or services, we might ask you to provide us with personal data. For example, we ask for your contact information when you sign up for our services, respond to a job application or an email offer, participate in community forums, join us on social media, take part in training and events, contact us with questions or request support. If you don’t want to provide us with personal data, you don’t have to, but it might mean you can’t use some parts of our websites or services.

  • Information we collect automatically: We collect some information about you automatically when you visit our websites or use our services, like your IP address and device type. We also collect information when you navigate through our websites and services, including what pages you looked at and what links you clicked on. This information is useful for us as it helps us better understand how you’re using our websites and services so that we can continue to provide the best experience possible (e.g., by personalising the content you see).

Some of this information is collected using cookies and similar tracking technologies.

 Where we collect personal data, we’ll only process it:

  • to perform a contract with you, or

  • where we have legitimate interests to process the personal data, and they’re not overridden by your rights, or

  • in accordance with a legal obligation, or

  • where we have your consent.

If we don’t collect your personal data, we may be unable to provide you with all our services, and some functions and features on our websites may not be available to you.

​

How we use your data

First and foremost, we use your personal data to operate our websites and, provide you with any services you’ve requested, and to manage our relationship with you. We also use your personal data for other purposes, which may include the following:

To communicate with you. This may include:

  • Providing you with information you’ve requested from us (like training or education materials) or information we are required to send to you

  • operational communications, like changes to our websites and services, security updates, or assistance with using our websites and services

  • marketing communications (about Stamped or another product or service we think you might be interested in) in accordance with your marketing preferences

  • asking you for feedback or to take part in any research we are conducting (which we may engage a third party to assist with).

To support you: This may include assisting with the resolution of technical support issues or other issues relating to the websites or services, whether by email, in-app support or otherwise.

To enhance our websites and services and develop new ones: For example, by tracking and monitoring your use of websites and services so we can keep improving, or by carrying out technical analysis of our websites and services so that we can optimise your user experience and provide you with more efficient tools.

To protect: So that we can detect and prevent any fraudulent or malicious activity, and make sure that everyone is using our websites and services fairly and in accordance with our Terms of Service.

To market to you: In addition to sending you marketing communications, we may also use your personal data to display targeted advertising to you online—through our own websites and services or through third-party websites and their platforms.

To analyse, aggregate and report: We may use the personal data we collect about you and other users of our websites and services (whether obtained directly or from third parties) to produce aggregated and anonymised analytics and reports, which we may share publicly or with third parties.

 

How we can share your data

Sometimes, we need to share your personal data with third parties. We will only disclose your personal data to:

  • Third-party service providers and partners who assist and enable us to use the personal data to, for example, support delivery of or provide functionality on the website or services or to market or promote our goods and services to you

  • Regulators, law enforcement bodies, government agencies, courts or other third parties are where we think it’s necessary to comply with applicable laws or regulations or to exercise, establish or defend our legal rights. Where possible and appropriate, we will notify you of this type of disclosure

  • other people where we have your consent

 

Accuracy

We take all reasonable steps within our control to ensure that the personal information we hold about you is accurate, complete and up-to-date. However, we also rely on you to advise us of any changes to your personal information. You can change your personal data related to your Stamped account in the platform under Settings.

 

Security

We are committed to protecting your personal data and have taken steps to ensure that your personal information is treated securely and to prevent unauthorised access, collection, use, disclosure, copying, modification, disposal or similar risks.

Although we aim to create a safe, secure environment by trying to limit access to the site to legitimate users, we cannot guarantee that unauthorised parties will not gain access. To the extent permitted by applicable law, we'd like to explicitly exclude any liability arising from any unauthorised access to your personal information.

We will inform you without undue delay unless the risk to your individual rights and freedoms is low—such as if the compromised data was well-encrypted.

Please get in touch with us at privacy@lfal.net immediately if you become aware of any unauthorised use of your account by anyone else or any other breach of security.

 

Retention

The length of time we keep your personal data depends on its nature and whether we have an ongoing business need to retain it (for example, to provide you with a service you’ve requested or to comply with applicable legal, tax, or accounting requirements).

We’ll retain your personal data for as long as we have a relationship with you and for a period of time afterwards where we have an ongoing business need to retain it, in accordance with our data retention policies and practices.

Please note that if you ask LiveFromALounge to stop processing your personal data in a certain way or erase your personal data, and this type of processing or data is needed to facilitate your use of the services, you may not be able to use the services as you did before, or at all.

 

Cookies

To make this site work properly, we sometimes place small data files called cookies on your device. Most big websites do this, too. A cookie is a small text file that a website stores on a visitor’s computer and the visitor’s browser provides to the website each time the visitor returns. It enables the website to remember your actions and preferences (such as login, language, font size and other display preferences) over a period of time, so you don’t have to keep re-entering them whenever you come back to the site or browse from one page to another.

Our site uses cookies to help us identify you from other users and track your usage of our site and your website access preferences. We do or may use the following cookies:

  • Strictly necessary cookies. These are cookies that are required for the operation of our site. They include, for example, cookies that enable you to log into secure areas of our site, use a shopping cart, or use e-billing services.

  • Analytical/performance cookies allow us to recognise and count the number of visitors and see how visitors move around our site when using it. This helps us improve the way our site works, for example, by ensuring that users find what they are looking for easily.

  • Functionality cookies. These are used to recognise you when you return to our site. This enables us to personalise our content for you, greet you by name and remember your preferences (for example, your choice of language or region).

  • Targeting cookies. These cookies record your visit to our site, the pages you have visited and the links you have followed. We will use this information to make our site and the advertising displayed on it more relevant to your interests. We may also share this information with third parties for this purpose.

Please note that third parties (including, for example, advertising networks and providers of external services like web traffic analysis services) may also use cookies, over which we have no control. These cookies are likely to be analytical/performance cookies or targeting cookies.

You can control and/or delete cookies as you wish—for details, see aboutcookies.org. You can delete all cookies that are already on your computer and you can set most browsers to prevent them from being placed. If you do this, however, you may have to manually adjust some preferences every time you visit our site and some services and functionalities may not work.

 

Links to third-party websites

Our site may contain links to and from third-party websites. If you click on such links, you do so at your own risk and subject to whatever privacy policy and/or website terms may govern the use of such websites. We have no control over and are not responsible, nor liable for, the content, privacy practices or website terms of such websites or any information you provide to them. You should read the privacy policies of these third parties to learn how they handle your personal information when you visit their websites.

 

International Data Transfers

Your information may be processed outside of the country where you live. For individuals in the European Economic Area (EEA), this means that your data may be transferred outside of the EEA. Regardless of where we use, process, or store your data, we will comply with the protections set out in this Privacy Policy and relevant legislation. Where we disclose personal data to a third party in another country, we endeavour to put safeguards in place to ensure your personal data remains protected, such as where we have approved transfer mechanisms in place to protect your personal data – i.e., by entering into the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses.
