4. How Long We Retain Your Information
Your personal data will be retained as long as you have a Subliminator account or until there's a legal or valid reason for doing so. Even if you delete your account or stop using our Services, we might retain copies of your (or your customers') data to comply with laws, resolve disputes, prevent fraud, enforce agreements, and protect our interests.
Information related to your Subscription Plans will be retained for as long as your subscription is active to provide you with the ongoing features and services you have selected. Should you choose to end your subscription, we will retain the necessary personal data for a period that complies with legal obligations and our operational needs.
5. Your Data Rights and Choices
As a user or merchant in the European Economic Area or the UK, the GDPR grants you certain rights over your personal data. These include the right to request access to, correction or deletion of, and restriction on your personal data. You can exercise these rights by logging into your Subliminator account or reaching out to us. Additionally, you can object to us processing your data in some instances. Note, however, there are exceptions to these rights. For example, if we're required by law to retain your data or if granting your request would expose someone else's data. If you're not satisfied with how we've handled your data, you can lodge a complaint with us or your local data protection authority.
If you are subscribed to any of our Subscription Plans, you have the right to inquire about the personal data we hold specific to your subscription, request corrections, or express preferences on the data's use for marketing purposes.
6. Data Security
We take stringent measures to safeguard your personal data. We encourage you to maintain strong passwords, avoid leaving your computer or browser open when not in use, and refrain from sharing sensitive info with us.
7. International Data Transfers
Your information could be moved to or accessed by our parent company in the US, our affiliates, and our Service Providers. We ensure protection while transferring your data internationally, complying with European Commission’s Model clauses for data transfers and similar UK clauses when applicable.
Subscription-related information may also be subject to international data transfers. As with all personal data, transfers of subscription data will be conducted in full compliance with GDPR and other applicable data protection legislation, ensuring your privacy rights continue to be protected.
8. Changes to Our Privacy Policy
We may make changes to this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in the law, our data collection and use practices, the features of our Services, or advances in technology. If we make significant changes, we will notify you via your registered email and by posting a notice on our home page. Please review the changes carefully. Your continued use of the Services following the posting of changes will mean you consent to and accept those changes.
Changes to this Privacy Policy that significantly affect the handling of subscription data will be communicated through the channels mentioned above and take effect upon posting after notification.
