5.2 To secure Beehive financing you will provide business and personal information to prospective investors on your financing request page. Please be aware that once made available on your profile this information shall be available online to other users of Beehive. We have no control or responsibility for the ways that other members of Beehive may use that information. Both businesses and investors on Beehive acknowledge and agree that in order to enter into a specific Finance Contract it will be necessary for certain information to be shared with the other party. If you are a business, you consent to us disclosing to your investors, your company name and registration details and contact details for the service of notices, and in the case of an investor, you consent to us disclosing to the relevant business, your name and passport or National ID number (if you are investing in your personal capacity) or your company name and registration details.
5.3 It may sometimes be necessary for us to share your personal information with other Beehive companies. It may also be necessary for us to share your personal information with trusted third parties, who provide services to us or on our behalf. This may entail a transfer of personal information from within Oman to recipients outside Oman, and vice versa.
5.4 The level of personal information protection in locations outside Oman may be less than that offered within Oman, but we have procedures in place to ensure the protection of personal information. These procedures include putting steps in place to ensure that all such entities keep your personal information confidential and secure and only use it for the purposes that we have specified and communicated to you. In relation to any other third parties we will only disclose your information where you have given your consent or where we are required to do so by law or regolation, or where it is necessary for the purpose of, or in connection with legal proceedings or in order to exercise or defend legal rights.
