”Sale of personal data” means the exchange of personal data for monetary consideration. 

 

If this definition ”consumer” applies to you, we must adhere to certain rights and obligations regarding your personal data. 

 

Your rights with respect to your personal data: 

 

12.4.1. Right to be informed whether or not we are processing your personal data 

 

12.4.2. Right to access your personal data 

 

12.4.3. Right to correct inaccuracies in your personal data 

 

12.4.4. Right to request deletion of your personal data 

 

12.4.5. Right to obtain a copy of the personal data you previously shared with us 

 

12.4.6. Right to opt out of the processing of your personal data if it is used for targeted

advertising, the sale of personal data, or profiling in furtherance of decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects (”profiling”) 

 

Exercise your rights provided under the Virginia VCDPA 

 

You may contact us by e-mail: support@store-tech.se. 

 

If you are using an authorized agent to exercise your rights, we may deny a request if the authorized agent does not submit proof that they have been validly authorized to act on your behalf. 

 

Verification process 

 

We may request that you provide additional information reasonably necessary to verify you and your consumer’s request. If you submit the request through an authorized agent, we may need to collect additional information to verify your identity before processing your request. 

Upon receiving your request, we will respond without undue delay, but in all cases, within forty-five (45) days of receipt. The response period may be extended once by forty-five (45) additional days when reasonably necessary. We will inform you of any such extension within the initial 45-day response period, together with the reason for the extension. 

 

Right to appeal 

 

If we decline to take action regarding your request, we will inform you of our decision and reasoning behind it. If you wish to appeal our decision, please email us at e-mail: support@store-tech.se. Within sixty (60) days of receipt of an appeal, we will inform you in writing of any action taken or not taken in response to the appeal, including a written explanation of the reasons for the decisions. If your appeal if denied, you may contact the Attorney General to submit a complaint. 

 

13. Data Retention

 

We keep your information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this privacy notice unless otherwise required by law. 

 

We will only keep your personal information for as long as it is necessary for the purposes set out in this privacy notice, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law (such as tax, accounting, or other legal requirements). No purpose in this notice will require us keeping your personal information for longer than the period of time in which users have an account with us. 

 

When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize such information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible. 

 

14. Security

 

We aim to protect your personal information through a system of organizational and technical security measures.  We have implemented appropriate and reasonable technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process. However, despite our safeguards and efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so we cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat our security and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, transmission of personal information to and from our Services is at your own risk. You should only access the Services within a secure environment. 

 

15. Changes to the Privacy Policy

 

We reserve the right to update or modify this Privacy Policy at any time. Any changes will be effective immediately upon posting the updated Privacy Policy on the Platform. We encourage you to review this privacy notice frequently to be informed of how we are protecting your information.
