4. Information Uses, Sharing & Disclosure
When you access or use the services, we collect, use, share, and otherwise process your personal information as described in this policy. We rely on a number of legal bases to use your information in these ways. These legal bases include where:
- necessary to perform the contractual obligations in our Terms of Use and in order to provide the Services to you;
- you have consented to the processing, which you can revoke at any time;
- necessary to comply with a legal obligation, a court order, or to exercise or defend legal claims;
- necessary for the purposes of our or a third party’s legitimate interests, such as those of visitors, members, or partners; you have expressly made the information public;
- necessary in the public interest;
- and occasionally necessary to protect your vital interests, or those of others.
Note that we principally rely on consent:
(i) to send marketing messages,
(ii) for third-party data sharing related to advertising, and, to the extent applicable,
(iii) for the use of location data for advertising purposes.
Where we process your information on the basis of legitimate interests, we do so as follows:
- Providing and improving our services: We may use your information to improve and customise our services, including sharing of your information for such purposes, and we do so as it is necessary to pursue our legitimate interests of improving our services for our users.
- Legal and Safety: We may also retain, preserve, or release your personal information to a third party in the following limited circumstances: in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet legitimate national security or law enforcement requirements; to protect, establish, or exercise our legal rights or defend against legal claims, including to collect a debt; to comply with a subpoena, court order, legal process, or other legal requirement; or when we believe in good faith that such disclosure is reasonably necessary to comply with the law, prevent imminent physical harm or financial loss, or investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, threats to our property.
- Service Providers: we also need to engage third-party companies and individuals (such as payment processors, delivery service providers, research companies, and analytics and security providers) to help us operate, provide, and market the services. These third parties have only limited access to your information, may use your information only to perform these tasks on our behalf, and are obligated not to disclose or use your information for other purposes. Our engagement of service providers is often necessary for us to provide the services to you, particularly where such companies play important roles like processing payments and shipments and helping us keep our service operating and secure. In some other cases, these service providers aren’t strictly necessary for us to provide the services, but help us make it better, like by helping us conduct research into how we could better serve our users. In these latter cases, we have a legitimate interest in working with service providers to make our services better.
- Third Parties: Third-party plug-ins also may collect information about your use of the site. For example, when you load a page that has a social plug-in from a third-party site or service, such as a “Like” or “Send” button, you are also loading content from that third-party site. That site may request cookies directly from your browser. These interactions are subject to the privacy policy of the third-party site.
