How Your Personal Data Is Transferred Globally

As a company operating globally, we provide our products or services through resources and servers located around the world.

The personal data of users is stored where our data centers are located: in China, France, Singapore, and India. This means that your personal information may be transferred or accessed from jurisdictions outside the country/region where you use the product or service.

You understand that the risks that exist under different data protection laws are different. In such cases, we will take measures to ensure that the data we collect is processed in accordance with the requirements of this Privacy Notice and applicable laws, and to ensure that your personal information is protected to the same extent as in the country/region where you use the product or service.

Additional Information on Rights to Personal Data

Under the legal requirements of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), you have the following rights:

The right of access: You may request access to the personal information we hold about you.
The right to rectification: If you find that the personal information we process about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request that we make timely corrections and, where appropriate, request that your personal information be supplemented.
The right to erasure: You may submit a request to us to delete your personal information. In some cases (for example, where we have no legitimate reason to continue processing your personal information to the extent required by applicable laws and regulations), we are obligated to delete it promptly. Please note that by deleting all the data contained in your device, it does not mean that you have deleted all the data collected and processed by realme about you. Therefore, we encourage you to request deletion of your personal information by sending an email to privacy@realme.com.
The right to restrict processing: In certain circumstances, where you dispute the accuracy of personal information, you have the right to request realme to restrict the way we process your personal information for a period of time, so that we can verify the accuracy of the personal information. We will only retain enough, or process as much data as is necessary, to ensure that we honor your request for restriction in the future.
The right to object: You have the right to object at any time to any processing of your personal information, based on legitimate interests in your particular circumstances. If you decide to object to the processing of your personal information, we will stop processing the personal information relating to you, unless we can demonstrate that there are compelling reasons to continue processing your personal information that outweigh your interests, rights, and freedoms, or if we initiate, exercise, or defend our legal claims. You may object to direct marketing campaigns at any time and for any reason.
The right to data portability: You have the right to obtain a copy of your personal information in a structured, accessible, and machine-readable format, and to transfer this data to other suppliers and, in some cases, directly to other suppliers.
The right to withdraw consent: If you have given your consent for us to process your personal information, but later change your mind, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. Withdrawal of your consent does not affect the legality of our use of your personal information prior to your withdrawal of consent. If you wish to withdraw your consent to receiving promotional messages, you may unsubscribe by the method described in each promotional message. If you withdraw your consent, we may no longer be able to provide you with the corresponding services.
The right of complaint: You have the right to file a complaint with the competent supervisory authority regarding the way we handle or process your personal information, or to file a lawsuit with a court of competent jurisdiction.
