We are registered with ICO (Information Commissioner's Office), the UK’s independent authority set up to uphold information rights in the public interest, promoting openness by public bodies and data privacy for individuals. On May 25, 2018, a new European Union (EU) data protection law, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), takes effect. The GDPR gives individuals in the EU more control over how their data is used and places certain obligations on businesses that process information of those individuals. We’ve updated our Privacy Policy to consider the new requirements of the GDPR.

These changes will take effect for existing users of our services on May 23, 2018. Here are some of the highlights of what’s changing:

• Transparency: We’ve provided additional details about the information we collect and how we use that information. We’ve also explained your choices and the control you have over your information.
• Personal data: The GDPR applies to ‘personal data’ meaning any information relating to an identifiable person who can be directly or indirectly identified by reference to an identifier.

This definition provides for a wide range of personal identifiers to constitute personal data, including name, identification number, location data, or online identifier, reflecting changes in technology and the way organizations collect information about people.

The GDPR applies to both automated personal data and to manual filing systems where personal data are accessible according to specific criteria. This could include chronologically ordered sets of manual records containing personal data.

Personal data that has been pseudonymized – e.g., key-coded – can fall within the scope of the GDPR depending on how difficult it is to attribute the pseudonym to a particular individual.

• Functionality: Depending on your location, we may provide you with the ability to access, download, and request the deletion of your personal information.

What we collect

We may collect the following information:

• Full Name
• Contact information including email address
• Other information relevant to customers or offers

What we do with the information we gather

We require this information to understand your needs and provide you with a better service, and for the following reasons:

• Internal record keeping.
• We may use the information to improve our products and services.
• We may periodically send promotional emails about new products, special offers, or other information which we think you may find interesting using the email address which you have provided.

From time to time, we may also use your information to contact you for market research purposes. We may contact you by email, phone, fax, or mail. We may use the information to customize the website according to your interests.

Trustpilot

Following an order, the Trustpilot & Trustpilot Badge is incorporated into this web page to display our Trustpilot Trustmark for buyers and the eventually collected reviews, as well as the Trustpilot product offer.

Balancing the various interests serves to safeguard our legitimate prevailing interests in the optimized marketing of our offer. The Trustpilot Badge and the services advertised are an offer of Trustpilot.

Whenever a Trustpilot Badge is called up, the web server automatically stores a so-called server log file which contains, for example, your IP address, the date and time of retrieval, the data volume transferred, and the requesting provider (access data) and documents the retrieval. This access data will not be evaluated and will be automatically overwritten seven days after you visit the page.

Other personal information will only be transferred to Trustpilot shops if you decide, after completing an order, to use Trustpilot shops products or have already registered for their use. In this case, the contractual agreement between you and Trustpilot shops applies.

The new General Data Protection Regulation will be applicable starting on May 25, 2018. The changes will have an impact on our automatic review collection feature, too.

Until now, this feature was automatically activated by default in the backend at the time of registering with Trustpilot shops. This means that the Trustpilot Badge integrated into your online shop automatically collects the e-mail addresses of all your customers and sends them a review reminder. To do so, you are obliged to obtain your customers’ consent.

As of May 25, 2018, data protection must be guaranteed also by default, which means that the automatic activation of this feature doesn’t meet the requirements of the new General Data Protection Regulation. Products must be designed in such a way that, by default, they collect as little personal data as possible and guarantee data protection by default.
