Storage & Data Security 

We only keep your personal data for as long as we need to in order to use it as described above in the section entitled "Using Your Data", and/or for as long as we have your permission to keep it. 

For data subjects within the European Economic Area ("the EEA") (the EEA consists of all EU member states, plus Norway, Iceland, and Liechtenstein) some or all of your personal data may be stored outside of the EEA. You are deemed to accept and agree to this by using our website or ordering our products and submitting information to us. If we do store data outside the EEA, we will take all reasonable steps to ensure that your data is treated as safely and securely as it would be within the EEA and under the General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR") including the measures outlined in the section entitled "Sharing Your Data" below. 

Data security is very important to us, and to protect your data we have taken suitable measures to safeguard and secure data collected by us including storing your data on secure servers. For example, when you provide sensitive information (such as credit/debit card numbers) to our website, mobile applications or for any payment transactions, we use transmission encryption technologies such as Secure Socket Layer (SSL). Please be aware that no website, application, or internet connection is completely secure and there is no guarantee that our safeguards and security measures are failsafe or cannot be breached. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password that enables you to access certain parts of our website or order products, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share a password with anyone. 

Our practices and procedures are designed to limit personal data access to those of our employees, personnel and agents with a legitimate need to access such personal data. Our employees and personnel are bound by confidentiality obligations, which obligate them to protect the confidentiality of our users' or customers' personal data. 

When we dispose of personal data, we use reasonable procedures to erase or render it unreadable (for example, shredding documents and wiping electronic media). 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. Due to the design of the Internet and other factors outside our control, we cannot guarantee that communications between you and our servers will be free from unauthorized access by third parties. 

Sharing Your Data 

We may sometimes contract with third parties to supply products or services to you on our behalf. These may include customer service, after sales services, payment processing, delivery of products, search engine facilities, advertising, and marketing. In some cases, the third parties may require access to some or all of your data. Where any of your data is required for such a purpose, we will take all reasonable steps to ensure that your data will be handled safely, securely, and in accordance with your rights and our obligations under applicable law. 

We may disclose personal data about you to third parties with your consent. We may obtain your consent in several ways, such as in writing; online, through "click-through" agreements; orally, including through interactive voice response; or when your consent is part of this Privacy Policy or the terms and conditions pursuant to which we provide products to you. Your consent is sometimes implicit. For example, if you purchase a product and ask that it be shipped to your home, you implicitly consent to our disclosure of your name and address to a third party shipping company to complete delivery. 

We may compile statistics about the use of our website or products including data on traffic, usage patterns, user numbers, sales, and other information. All such data will be anonymised and will not include any personally identifying data, or any anonymised data that can be combined with other data and used to identify you. We may from time to time share such data with third parties such as prospective investors, affiliates, partners, and advertisers. Data will only be shared and used within the bounds of the law. 

In respect of EEA data subjects, we share your personal data within ROKiT Industries. This will involve transferring your data outside the EEA. We may also sometimes use third party data processors that are located outside of the EEA. Where we transfer any personal data outside the EEA, we will take all reasonable steps to ensure that your data is treated as safely and securely as it would be within the EEA and under applicable law including at least one of the following:

  • The use of standard contractual clauses to protect the transfer of your data outside the EEA which give personal data the same protection it has in the EEA;
  • Ensuring that we transfer your personal data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data by the European Commission;
  • Where we use service providers based in the United States of America, we may transfer personal data to them if they are part of the Privacy Shield which requires them to provide similar protection to personal data shared between Europe and the United States of America. 

In certain circumstances, we may be legally required to share certain data held by us, which may include your personal data, for example, where we are involved in legal proceedings, where we are complying with legal requirements, a court order, or a governmental authority. 

We may disclose personal data as part of a corporate business transaction, such as a merger or acquisition, joint venture, corporate reorganization, financing, or sale of company assets, or in the unlikely event of insolvency, bankruptcy, or receivership, in which personal data could be transferred to third parties as a business asset in the transaction. 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 Policy. 

Controlling Our Use of Your Data 

In addition to your rights under applicable law, if and when you submit personal data via our website, you may be given options to restrict our use of your data. In particular, we aim to give you strong controls on our use of your data for direct marketing purposes (including the ability to opt-out of receiving emails from us which you may do by unsubscribing using the links provided in our emails and at the point of providing your details). 

Changes to Our Privacy Policy 

We keep this policy under review and may change this Privacy Policy from time to time (for example, if the law changes or if there are changes to our products or services). Any changes will be immediately posted on our website and, where appropriate, notified to you when you next order our products.
