2. THE DATA WE COLLECT ABOUT YOU
Personal data, or personal information, means any

does not include data where the identity has been removed (anonymous data).
We may collect, use, store and transfer different kinds of
personal data about you which we have grouped together follows:
Identity Data includes first name, last name, username or
similar identifier, marital status and date of birth.
Contact Data includes billing address, delivery address and
email address.

We also collect, use and share Aggregated Data such as

from your personal data but is not considered personal data in law as this data
does not directly or indirectly reveal your identity. For example, we may
aggregate your Usage Data to calculate the percentage of users accessing a
specific Site feature. However, if we combine or connect Aggregated Data with
your personal data so that it can directly or indirectly identify you, we treat
the combined data as personal data which will be used in accordance with this
privacy notice.
Except in limited circumstances which will be made clear to
you, we do not collect any Special Categories of Personal Data about you (this
includes details about your race or ethnicity, religious or philosophical
beliefs, sex life, sexual orientation, political opinions, trade union
membership, information about your health and genetic and biometric data). Nor
do we collect any information about criminal convictions and offences.
IF YOU FAIL TO PROVIDE PERSONAL DATA
Where we need to collect personal data by law, or under the
terms of a contract we have with you and you fail to provide that data when
requested, we may not be able to perform the contract we have or are trying to
enter into with you (for example, to provide you with the cashback service). In
this case, you will not be able to join eeceee.
3. HOW IS YOUR PERSONAL DATA COLLECTED?

4. HOW WE USE YOUR PERSONAL DATA
We will only use your personal data when the law allows us
to. Most commonly, we will use your personal data in the following
circumstances:
Where we need to perform the contract, we are about to enter
into or have entered into with you.
Where it is necessary for our legitimate interests (or those
of a third party) and your interests and fundamental rights do not override
those interests.
PURPOSES FOR WHICH WE WILL USE YOUR PERSONAL DATA
We have set out below, in a table format, a description of
all the ways we plan to use your personal data, and which of the legal bases we
rely on to do so. We have also identified what our legitimate interests are
where appropriate.
What is a legitimate interest?
Legitimate Interest means the interest of our business in
conducting and managing our business to enable us to give you the best service
and the best and most secure experience on our Site. We make sure we consider
and balance any potential impact on you (both positive and negative) and your
rights before we process your personal data for our legitimate interests. We do
not use your personal data for activities where our interests are overridden by
the impact on you (unless we have your consent or are otherwise required or
permitted to by law). You can obtain further information about how we assess
our legitimate interests against any potential impact on you in respect of
specific activities by contacting us [email protected] (For queries
which do not relate to this privacy notice, please use
[email protected]).
Performance of Contract means processing your data where it
is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party. If you
fail to provide personal data that we require for the performance of a contract
with you we cannot enter into a contract with you for the provision of our
services.
MARKETING
We strive to provide you with choices regarding certain
personal data uses, particularly around marketing and advertising. Within your
account you can view and make certain decisions about your personal data use in
relation to marketing emails.
PROMOTIONAL OFFERS FROM US
We may use your Identity, Contact, Technical, Usage and
Profile Data to form a view on what we think you may want or need, or what may
be of interest to you. This is how we decide which products, services and
offers may be relevant for you (we call this marketing).
You will receive marketing communications from us if you
have signed up to our Site and you have not opted out of receiving marketing
emails.
THIRD-PARTY MARKETING
We will never sell your personal data to any company outside
the eeceee corp for marketing purposes. As referred to above, we may share your
Contact or Identity Data with certain third parties e.g. sub-processors to
facilitate the delivery of marketing emails to you and social media publishers,
in order to ensure our marketing is targeted at and relevant to eeceee members.
OPTING OUT
You can ask us to stop sending you marketing emails at any
time by logging into your account on the Site and checking or unchecking
relevant boxes to adjust your marketing preferences or by following the opt-out
links on any marketing email sent to you.
COOKIES
You can set your browser to refuse all or some browser
cookies, or to alert you when websites set or access cookies. If you disable or
refuse cookies, please note that some parts of this Site will become
inaccessible or not function properly resulting in your cashback not tracking.
For more information about the cookies we use, please see our Cookie Policy.
CHANGE OF PURPOSE
We will only use your personal data for the purposes for
which we collected it, unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for
another reason and that reason is compatible with the original purpose. If you
wish to get an explanation as to how the processing for the new purpose is
compatible with the original purpose, please contact us at [email protected]
If we need to use your personal data for an unrelated
purpose, we will notify you and we will explain the legal basis which allows us
to do so.
Please note that we may process your personal data without
your knowledge or consent, in compliance with the above rules, where this is
required or permitted by law.
5. DISCLOSURES OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA
We may have to share your personal data with the parties set
out below for the purposes set out in the table in paragraph 4 above.
Third parties to whom we may choose to sell, transfer, or
merge parts of our business or our assets. Alternatively, we may seek to
acquire other businesses or merge with them. If a change happens to our
business, then the new owners may use your personal data in the same way as set
out in this privacy notice.
We require all third parties to respect the security of your
personal data and to treat it in accordance with the law. We do not allow our
third-party service providers to use your personal data for their own purposes
and only permit them to process your personal data for specified purposes and
in accordance with our instructions.
6. INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS
Some of our external third parties are based outside the USA
so their processing of your personal data will involve a transfer of data
outside the USA.
Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the USA we
ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring at least
one of the following safeguards is implemented:
We will only transfer your personal data to countries that
have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data
by the UK or where we have undertaken appropriate due diligence and are
satisfied that your personal data is adequately protected.
Where we use certain service providers, we implement
appropriate safeguards and may use specific contracts approved for use in the
UK and will also take additional measures as may be required subject to the
transfer risk assessment so as to give personal data the same protection it has
in the UK and notably prevent interference by public authorities of third
countries.
Please contact us at [email protected] if you want further information on the
specific mechanism used by us when transferring your personal data out of the
USA.
7. DATA SECURITY
We have put in place appropriate security measures to
prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an
unauthorised way, altered or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your
personal data to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties
who have a business need to know. They will only process your personal data on
our instructions and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.
We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected
personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a
breach where we are legally required to do so.
8. DATA RETENTION
HOW LONG WILL YOU USE MY PERSONAL DATA FOR?
We will only retain your personal data for as long as
necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the
purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.
To determine the appropriate retention period for personal
data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the
potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal
data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can
achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal
requirements.
Details of retention periods for different aspects of your
personal data are available in our retention policy which you can request from
us by contacting us at [email protected]
In some circumstances you can ask us to delete your data.
In some circumstances we may anonymise your personal data
(so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical
purposes in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further
notice to you.
9. YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS
Under certain circumstances, you have rights under data
protection laws in relation to your personal data.
You have the right to:
Request access to your personal data (commonly known as a
“data subject access request”). This enables you to receive a copy of the
personal data we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing
it.
Request correction of the personal data that we hold about
you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about
you corrected, though we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you
provide to us.
Request erasure of your personal data. This enables you to
ask us to delete or remove personal data where there is no good reason for us
continuing to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove
your personal data where you have successfully exercised your right to object
to processing (see below), where we may have processed your information
unlawfully or where we are required to erase your personal data to comply with
local law. Note, however, that we may not always be able to comply with your
request of erasure for specific legal reasons which will be notified to you, if
applicable, at the time of your request.
Object to processing of your personal data where we are
relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is
something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to
processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and
freedoms. You also have the right to object where we are processing your
personal data for direct marketing purposes. In some cases, we may demonstrate
that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which
override your rights and freedoms.
Request restriction of processing of your personal data.
This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of your personal data in
the following scenarios: (a) if you want us to establish the data’s accuracy;
(b) where our use of the data is unlawful but you do not want us to erase it;
(c) where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as you
need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims; or (d) you have objected
to our use of your data but we need to verify whether we have overriding
legitimate grounds to use it.
Request the transfer of your personal data to you or to a
third party. We will provide to you, or a third party you have chosen, your
personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Note
that this right only applies to automated information which you initially
provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform a
contract with you.
Withdraw consent at any time where we are relying on consent
to process your personal data. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of
any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. If you withdraw
your consent, we may not be able to provide certain products or services to
you. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your
consent.
NO FEE USUALLY REQUIRED
You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data
(or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable
fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive.
Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with your request in these
circumstances.
WHAT WE MAY NEED FROM YOU
We may need to request specific information from you to help
us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or
to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure
that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive
it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to
your request to speed up our response.
TIME LIMIT TO RESPOND
We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one
month. Occasionally it may take us longer than a month if your request is
particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, we
will notify you and keep you updated.
