We will nonetheless need to send you service-related notifications from time to time if you get a service from us.
Before we disclose your personal information with any third party for marketing reasons, we will first get your explicit opt-in agreement. All third parties must adhere to the law and protect the security of your personal data, as required by us. We only let our third-party service providers to handle your personal data for those reasons and in line with our instructions. We do not authorise them to use your personal data for their own purposes.
There is a link at the bottom of every email we send you that allows you to opt out of receiving further communications from us.
WHO STORES YOUR DATA AND WHERE
All information you provide us is kept on our safe servers in the EU. Data may be transmitted to and kept at a location outside the European Economic Area where required and for a purpose for which you have given your agreement ("EEA"). Additionally, it could be handled by personnel working for us or one of our suppliers who are based outside the EEA. These employees may be responsible for completing your purchase, handling your payment information, and offering support services, among other things.
We will only share your personal information with third parties outside the EEA if doing so complies with local laws and regulations. For your knowledge, this also applies to situations in which;
1. You consent to this transmission, storage, or processing by providing your personal data. We will do all within our power to protect your data and handle it securely in compliance with this privacy statement.
RETAINING PERIOD
Your information is only retained for as long as is required to provide the service or product you have requested or to accomplish the goal stated in this policy.
The quantity, nature, and sensitivity of the data, the risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure, the purposes for which we process the data, including whether those purposes can be met without the use of the data, and the applicable legal requirements are all taken into account when determining the appropriate retention period for personal data. For instance, we will preserve information on your orders for as long as necessary to meet legal and regulatory requirements. In general, unless the legislation specifies a longer duration, this is 7 years.
In rare cases, we may anonymize your personal information (making it impossible to link it back to you) for research or statistical reasons, in which case we may continue to use this data indefinitely without further informing you.
SECURITY OF DATA
We have put in place the necessary security measures to guard against the unintentional loss, alteration, disclosure, or use of your personal information. Additionally, we only allow employees, agents, contractors, and other third parties that have a business need to know access to your personal information. They have a confidentiality obligation and will only act in accordance with our instructions while processing your personal data. When we are legally obligated to do so, we will inform you and any relevant regulator of a breach and will have processes in place to deal with any suspected personal data breach.
YOUR RIGHTS LEGALLY
You may have rights under the GDPR with regard to your personal data in some situations. You're entitled to;
1. Make a "data subject access request" (also known as a request for access to your personal data). This gives you the chance to request a copy of the personal information we currently have on file for you and confirm its accuracy.
2. Request that the personal information we have on you be corrected. This gives you the opportunity to change any incomplete or erroneous data we may have about you, albeit we may need to confirm the veracity of any updated information you offer.
3. Request that your personal data be deleted. This gives you the option to request that we delete or remove personal data when there is no compelling reason for us to do so, such as when you feel that we no longer need it for the reasons we originally collected it as described to you in this Privacy Policy, when you have revoked your consent to our use of it and we have relied on that consent in accordance with this Policy, or when you feel that we cannot demonstrate a "legitimate interest" in continuing to process it. Additionally, you have the right to request that we destroy your personal data in cases where you have successfully exercised your right to object to processing (see below), in which we may have handled your data improperly, or in which we are compelled to do so by local law. However, please be aware that there are certain circumstances in which we may not always be able to honour your request for erasure. If this is the case, we will let you know at the time of your request.
4. You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data in cases where we (or a third party) are relying on a legitimate interest, and there is something about your situation that makes you want to object to the processing on this ground because you feel it affects your fundamental rights and freedoms. In cases where we are using your personal data for direct marketing, you also have the right to object. In rare circumstances, we may be able to show that our legitimate processing needs outweigh your rights and freedoms.
5. Request a limitation on how your personal data is processed. This gives you the option to request that we stop processing your personal data in the following circumstances:
if you want us to verify the data's accuracy;
if our use of the data is illegal but you don't want us to delete it;
if you need us to keep the data even if we no longer need it because you need it to make, exercise, or defend legal claims; or
if you object to our use of your data but we need to make sure we have compelling reasons to keep using it despite your objection.
6. Request that your personal data be transferred to you or another party. Your personal information will be sent to you, or a specified third party, in a structured, generally accepted, machine-readable manner. Keep in mind that this privilege only applies to automated information that we utilised with your prior agreement or to carry out a contract with you.
7. You may revoke your permission at any moment if we are using it to handle your personal data. However, the processing that was done before you withdrew your permission will still be legal.
8. No money is required to view your personal information (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, if your request is obviously baseless, repeated, or unreasonable, we may impose a fair price. In some situations, we may also decline to abide with your request.
9. To verify your identity and secure your right to access your personal data, we may need to ask you for certain information (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security safeguard to make sure that personal information is not given to someone who shouldn't have access to it. In order to respond to your request more quickly, we could possibly get in touch with you and ask you for further details.
10. We make an effort to reply to all valid inquiries within a month. Occasionally, if your request is exceptionally complicated or you have made many requests, it can take us more than a month. In this scenario, we'll let you know and keep you informed.
Additionally, you may at any time make use of your rights by emailing us at contactus@reformli.com
