We will provide notice of any such changes (including when they will take effect) in accordance with law.

General Introduction to this Privacy Policy

The controller of personal information in relation to this privacy policy is GBeast.co

This policy explains the types of information that we may collect and hold, how that information is used and with whom the data is shared. It also sets out how you can contact us if you have any queries, concerns or complaints about this information.

Please note that suppliers are responsible for data processing controlled outside of EU/EEA. These companies may have their own privacy policies, which are generally available from the relevant websites for those products and services.

Data protection principles

All processing of personal data by GBeast.co is conducted in accordance with the data protection principles as set out in data protection laws and regulations in the EU, in particular Article 5 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, (hereafter referred to as the “GDPR”).

These principles are:

Lawfulness – We only process your information when we have identified a lawful basis for the intended personal data processing pursuant to Article 6 of the GDPR. These are often referred to as the “conditions for processing”, for example contractual or legal obligation, legitimate interest or explicit consent.

Fairness – We have made reasonable effort to ensure not to use your data in any unjustified way or in a manner which may have adverse effects on our users, as well as kept to minimum in order to provide users with qualitative products and services.

Transparency – We have made our best efforts to provide you detailed information on GBeast.co’s use of your personal information. Our users and visitors are encouraged to contact us whenever they have questions or seek information about our privacy procedures.

Our policies and procedures are to our best efforts designed to ensure compliance with these principles.

1.COLLECTION AND USE OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

GBeast.co may collect personal information about you in several different ways. Personal information in this context is any and all data relating to a natural person that can be used, directly or indirectly, to identify a natural person, (e.g. name, contact details, identification number, location data etc.).

Please take care when submitting personal information to us, in particular when completing free text fields, ordering GBeast.co products. Some of our services are automated and we may not recognise that you have accidentally provided us with incorrect or sensitive information.

GBeast.co’s processing of your personal information is conditioned predominantly on the basis of legal obligations under law, contractual obligation to provide you our products and services, and your legitimate interest of us providing you product and service information, updates, news on latest product developments and/or other information.
