Privacy Policy

Version 3.1 released 16 February 2023


In version V3.1 of the Privacy Policy, released on 16 February 2023, the following part have been changed from V 2.2 of the Privacy Policy.

Filming and Photography at Events Privacy Notice

SAL is the Data Controller, and this Privacy Notice provides an overview of how photography and filming data is processed. Especially when you inter an Iteration Insights event or program, where photography, audio, and video recording may occur.

SAL may take and/or commission photography and/or filming of events and campaign for live streaming online or repurposing in digital e.g., on our website; on our social media feeds including YouTube channel, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn or paper format. This will be for the purpose of promoting services and related initiatives. SAL maintains copyright and any other intellectual property in photographs taken and/or in digitized recordings belong to SAL.

Where practically possible we will seek consent in advance of an event to provide the lawful basis for processing data, and at all times, will provide clear instruction on how you can opt-out of any photography or filming. Attendees or participants have the right not to appear in an identifiable way in photography and/or filming. Where the image is of a crowd and does not focus on one individual or a group of individuals, it is unlikely to be personal information, as the individuals will not be identifiable - data protection legislation will not therefore apply.

In return for access to the event, we display notices to inform attendees or participants of this and how they can notify us if they do not wish to be photographed and/or filmed. You consent to any such filming, photography and/or live streaming and to SAL in reproducing and publishing your words and/or likeness in any transcript of or publication relating to the event and/or for the purposes of publicising the services of SAL and its partners.

Photos and recordings contain personal data and/or special category personal data will be protected and disposed of securely in accordance with data protection legislation.

Changes to this Privacy Notice - we review this Privacy Notice regularly and will place updates on our website. If at any point you wish to withdraw your consent or request that SAL stops using your images/ records, please write to DPO@SAL.SA and SALINTERNALCOMMUNICATIONS@SAL.SA

Camera locations are chosen to minimise the capture of images which are not relevant to the legitimate purposes of the monitoring.

Surveillance systems are not used to record sound.

Images are monitored by SAL’s authorised personnel 24 hours a day.

Live feeds from CCTV cameras are monitored only where this is reasonably necessary, for example to protect health, safety and security.

SAL will ensure that live feeds from cameras and recorded images are only viewed by approved members of its staff whose role requires them to have access to such data. This may include SAL’s HR staff involved in disciplinary or grievance matters.

No surveillance cameras will be placed in areas where there is an expectation of privacy (for example, in changing rooms) unless, in very exceptional circumstances, it is judged by SAL to be necessary to deal with very serious concerns.

SAL does not carry out covert monitoring or surveillance (that is, where you are unaware that the monitoring or surveillance is taking place) unless, in highly exceptional circumstances, there are reasonable grounds to suspect that criminal activity or extremely serious malpractice is taking place and, after suitable consideration, SAL reasonably believes there is no less intrusive way to tackle the issue.
Any covert monitoring or surveillance will be carried out for a limited and reasonable period of time consistent with the objectives of the monitoring or surveillance and will relate only to the specific suspected criminal activity or extremely serious malpractice.

The types of personal CCTV data we use and how we use them.

The types of personal data we collect and use, the purposes for which we use your personal data, and the lawful bases we rely on to allow us to use your personal data in that way are set out in the table below.

The date of the most recent revisions will appear on this page. If you do not agree to these changes, please do not continue to use SAL websites to submit personal information to SACC. If material changes are made to the Privacy and Cookies Policy, for instance affecting how we would like to use your personal information, we will notify you by placing a prominent notice on the website.

Our Privacy Policy may change from time to time. We will not reduce your rights under this policy without your explicit consent. We will post any Privacy Policy changes on this page.
What is the scope of our Privacy Policy?
This Privacy Policy only covers our website. Links within our website to external websites are not covered by this policy and remains the responsibility of the owners of these sites.
 

Application data cache

An application data cache is a data repository on a device. It can, for example, enable a web application to run without an Internet connection and improve the performance of the application by enabling faster loading of content.
 

Browser web storage

Browser web storage enables websites to store data in a browser on a device. When used in "local storage" mode, it enables data to be stored across sessions (for example, so that the data is retrievable even after the browser has been closed and reopened). One technology that facilitates web storage is HTML 5.
 

Device

A device is a computer that can be used to access SAL services. For example, a device could be a desktop, tablet or smartphone.
 

What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small amount of data, which often includes a unique identifier that is sent to your computer, tablet or mobile phone (all referred to here as a “device”) web browser from a website’s computer and is stored on your device’s hard drive. Each website can send its own cookie to your web browser if your browser’s preferences allow it. Many websites do this whenever a user visits their website in order to track online traffic flows. Similar technologies are also often used within emails to understand whether the email has been read or if any links have been clicked. If you continue without changing your settings, we’ll assume that you are happy to receive all cookies on the SAL website. However, you can change your cookie settings at any time. During the course of any visit to SAL website, the pages you see, along with a cookie, are downloaded to your device. Many websites do this, because cookies enable website publishers to do useful things like find out whether the device (and probably its user) has visited the website before. This is done on a repeat visit by checking to see, and finding, the cookie left there on the last visit.
 

SSL (Secure Sockets Layer)

SSL is the standard security technology for establishing an encrypted link between a web server and a browser. This link ensures that all data passed between the web server and browsers remain private and integral. SSL is an industry standard and is used by millions of websites in the protection of their online transactions with their customers.
To be able to create an SSL connection a web server requires an SSL Certificate. When you choose to activate SSL on your web server you will be prompted to complete a number of questions about the identity of your website and your company. Your web server then creates two cryptographic keys - a Private Key and a Public Key.
The Public Key does not need to be secret and is placed into a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) - a data file also containing your details. You should then submit the CSR. During the SSL Certificate application process, the Certification Authority will validate your details and issue an SSL Certificate containing your details and allowing you to use SSL. Your web server will match your issued SSL Certificate to your Private Key. Your web server will then be able to establish an encrypted link between the website and your customer's web browser.
The complexities of the SSL protocol remain invisible to your customers. Instead their browsers provide them with a key indicator to let them know they are currently protected by an SSL encrypted session - the lock icon in the lower right-hand corner, clicking on the lock icon displays your SSL Certificate and the details about it. All SSL Certificates are issued to either companies or legally accountable individuals.
Typically, an SSL Certificate will contain your domain name, your company name, your address, your city, your state and your country. It will also contain the expiration date of the Certificate and details of the Certification Authority responsible for the issuance of the Certificate. When a browser connects to a secure site it will retrieve the site's SSL Certificate and check that it has not expired, it has been issued by a Certification Authority the browser trusts, and that it is being used by the website for which it has been issued. If it fails on any one of these checks the browser will display a warning to the end user letting them know that the site is not secured by SSL.
 

Affiliates

Sensitive Categories

When showing you tailored ads, we may associate an identifier from cookies or similar technologies with topics such as "Cooking and Recipes" or "Air Travel", but not with sensitive categories. We impose a similar policy on our advertisers.

Server logs

These “server logs” typically include your web request, Internet Protocol address, browser type, browser language, the date and time of your request and one or more cookies that may uniquely identify your browser.
 

Unique device identifier

A unique device identifier (sometimes called a universally unique ID or UUID) is a string of characters that is incorporated into a device by its manufacturer and can be used to uniquely identify that device (for example an IMEI number of a mobile phone). Different device identifiers vary in how permanent they are, whether they can be reset by users and how they can be accessed. A given device may have several different unique device identifiers. Unique device identifiers can be used for various purposes, including security and fraud detection, syncing services such as a user’s email inbox, remembering the user’s preferences and providing relevant advertising.

DNT is a feature offered by some browsers which, when enabled, sends a signal to websites to request that your browsing is not tracked, such as by third party ad networks, social networks and analytic companies. The www.saudiaircargo.com website does not currently respond to DNT requests.
