Personal Data We Collect
Bazis does not collect any personal data through our website bazis-group.ru. Personal data may be collected through marketing research, such as information that can specifically identify you, including your name, address, phone number, and email address if you provide it to us.
Use of Personal Data
We may use and disclose personal data for the following reasons:
• To provide you with information about our services and company periodically.
• To share with Bazis agents, contractors, or partners in connection with services they perform for or with us.
These agents, contractors, or partners are restricted from using personal data for any purpose other than providing services to Bazis. For example, we may provide personal data to agents, contractors, or partners for database hosting, data processing services, or sending you information you requested, but they are prohibited from using your personal data for their own purposes unrelated to their work for us.
Information Collected from Children
We do not intend to collect personal data from children unless it is part of a scientific study we conduct. In such cases, we obtain parental or guardian consent for the children involved. We adhere to ESOMAR guidelines for surveying children. If we become aware that personal data from a child under the age of 14 has been collected without parental or guardian consent, we will make reasonable efforts to delete it.

There may be situations where we cannot provide individuals access to all or some of their personal data. If we deny an individual’s request for access to their personal data, we will provide the reason for the denial.
