Privacy Policy

We are committed to protecting your privacy and your rights! We make every effort to be GDPR compliant.

 Introduction

This Privacy Notice explains in detail the types of personal data we collect about you when you interact with us. It also explains the way we collect it and how we store and handle that data, and keep it safe.

We know that there’s a lot of information here but we want you to be fully informed about your rights, and how we use your data.

We hope the following sections answer any questions you have but if not, please do get in touch with us.

It’s likely that we’ll need to update this Privacy Notice from time to time. We’ll notify you of any significant changes, but you’re welcome to come back and check it whenever you wish.

Who are we

For simplicity throughout this notice, “this Website”, “we”, “us” means the ownership of ingeniumtooling.lu and its brands

Explaining the legal bases we rely on

The law on data protection sets out a number of different reasons for which a company may collect and process your personal data, including:

Consent

In specific situations, we can collect and process your data with your consent. For example, when you tick a box to receive email newsletters.

When collecting your personal data, we’ll always make clear to you which data is necessary in connection with a particular service.

Contractual obligations

In certain circumstances, we need your personal data to comply with our contractual obligations. For example, if you place an order with us and purchase an item for home delivery, we’ll collect your address details to deliver your purchase, and pass them to our courier.

Legal compliance

If the law requires us to, we may need to collect and process your data. For example, we can pass on details of people involved in fraud or other criminal activity affecting us to law enforcement.

Legitimate interest

In specific situations, we require your data in order to pursue our legitimate interests in a way which might reasonably be expected as part of running our business and which does not materially impact your rights, freedom or interests. For example, we will use your purchase history to send you or make available personalized offers.

We also may use your data for our own research, e.g. combine the shopping history of many customers to identify trends and ensure we can keep up with demand, or develop new products/services.

We will also use your email address details to send you marketing information by email, telling you about products and services that we think might interest you.

What sort of personal data do we collect?

We collect information so that we can provide the best possible experience when you buy our products or utilize our services.  Much of what you likely consider personal data is collected directly from you, such as:

  • Details of your interactions with us through email, online or over the phone. For example, we collect your name and email when you request assistance from our customer support team. We also collect notes from our conversations with you, details of any complaints or comments you make, details of purchases you made, items viewed or added to your basket, gift list and wish list choices, voucher redemptions, brands you show interest in, web pages you visit and how and when you contact us
  • Details when you complete contact forms or request newsletters or other information from us (for example your name or email)
  • Details of your visits to our websites and which site you came from to ours
  • Information gathered by the use of cookies in your web browser. Learn more about how we use cookies and similar technologies
  • To deliver the best possible web experience, we collect technical information about your internet connection and browser as well as the country where your computer is located, the web pages viewed during your visit, the advertisements you clicked on, and any search terms you entered
  • Data about usage of our products and services is automatically collected when you use and interact with our products or services, including metadata, log files, cookie/device IDs and location information. This information includes specific data about your interactions with the features, content and links (including those of third-parties, such as social media plugins) contained within the Services, Internet Protocol (IP) address, browser type and settings, the date and time the Services were used, information about browser configuration and plugins, language preferences and cookie data, information about devices accessing the products or services, including type of device, what operating system is used, device settings, application IDs, unique device identifiers and error data, and some of this data collected might be capable of and be used to approximate your location.
  • Supplemented Data may be received about you from other sources, including publicly available databases or third parties from whom we have legally and lawfully acquired data, in which case we may combine this data with information we already have about you so that we can update, expand and analyze the accuracy of our records, identify new customers, and provide products and services that may be of interest to you. If you provide us personal information about others, or if others give us your information, we will only use that information for the specific reason for which it was provided to us.

When do we collect your personal data?

We collect and store your personal information in order to provide you with the services or products that you buy from us. Using the below data collection mechanisms, we collect and keep the following personal information from you:

  • Contact forms – your name and email address and any details of your interactions with us you decide to share when you contact us. We use this information in order to reply to your questions and occasionally send you emails and notifications
  • Analytics and traffic log solutions – we use Google analytics and they collect information like IP address, device information, cookies, visit duration and tracking, mouse and swipe actions, etc. We do not use, collect, nor keep this information
  • Security tools and plugins – IP address, device information. We use this information to prevent unauthorized access, hacker attacks, and other security breaches. We periodically delete all this information and we do not store it for more than 4 months.
  • Cookies in your browser – our systems collect information gathered by the use of cookies in your web browser. See more about our cookies policy here.
  • Direct communication with you – sometimes we may need you to verify your identity before we can fulfill your order. In those cases, we may ask you for copies of documents to prove your age or identity (including your passport and driver’s license). This will include details of your full name, address, date of birth and facial image. If you provide a passport, the data will also include your place of birth, gender and nationality.

Other times when we collect your data:

  • When you contact us by any means with queries, complaints etc.
  • When you ask us to email you information about a product or service.
  • When you fill in any forms. For example, when you use our contact forms
  • When you’ve given a third party permission to share with us the information they hold about you.

How and why do we use your personal data?

You can always change the way we store your data or delete your data stored with us, just remember that if you choose not to share your personal data with us, or refuse certain contact permissions, we might not be able to provide some services you’ve asked for. For example, if you’ve asked us to let you know when an item comes back into stock, we can’t do that if you’ve withdrawn your general consent to hear from us.

We strongly believe in both minimizing the data we collect and limiting its use and purpose to only that (1) for which we have been given permission, (2) as necessary to deliver the products and services you purchase or interact with, or (3) as we might be required or permitted for legal compliance or other lawful purposes.

Here’s how we’ll use your personal data and why:

  • To respond to your queries, refund requests and complaints. Handling the information you sent enables us to respond. We may also keep a record of these to inform any future communication with us and to demonstrate how we communicated with you throughout. We do this on the basis of our contractual obligations to you, our legal obligations and our legitimate interests in providing you with the best service and understanding how we can improve our service based on your experience.
  • With your consent, we will use your personal data, preferences and details of your transactions to keep you informed by email, web, text, and telephone our customer info centers about relevant products and services including tailored special offers, discounts, promotions, events, competitions and so on.

Of course, you are free to opt out of hearing from us by any of these channels at any time.

  • To send you communications required by law or which are necessary to inform you about our changes to the services we provide you. For example, updates to this Privacy Notice, product recall notices, and legally required information relating to your orders. These service messages will not include any promotional content and do not require prior consent when sent by email or text message. If we do not use your personal data for these purposes, we would be unable to comply with our legal obligations.
  • To improve and optimize the operation and performance of our products and services
  • To develop, test and improve the systems, services and products we provide to you. We’ll do this on the basis of our legitimate business interests. For example, we’ll record your browser’s Session ID to help us understand more when you leave us online feedback about any problems you’re having.
  • To collect aggregate statistics about use of our products and services
  • To understand and analyze how you use our products and services and what products and services are most relevant to you.
  • To comply with our contractual or legal obligations to share data with law enforcement. For example, when a court order is submitted to share data with law enforcement agencies or a court of law.

Of course, you are free to opt out of receiving these requests from us at any time by updating your preferences in your online account

  • For website analytics. We use multiple web analytics tools provided by service partners such as Google Analytics, to collect information about how you interact with our website or mobile applications, including what pages you visit, what site you visited prior to visiting our website, how much time you spend on each page, what operating system and web browser you use and network and IP information. We use the information provided by these tools to improve our offerings. These tools place persistent cookies in your browser to identify you as a unique user the next time you visit our website. Each cookie cannot be used by anyone other than the service provider (ex: Google for Google Analytics). The information collected from the cookie may be transmitted to and stored by these service partners on servers in a country other than the country in which you reside. Though information collected does not include personal data such as name, address, billing information, etc., the information collected is used and shared by these service providers in accordance with their individual privacy policies. You can control the technologies we use by managing your settings through our Cookie Policy or the ‘cookie banners” that may be presented (depending on URL of website visited) when you first visit our webpages, or by utilizing settings in your browser or third-party tools, such as Disconnect, Ghostery and others.

Sometimes, we’ll need to share your details with a third party who is providing a service (such as delivery couriers). We do so to maintain our agreement with you. Without sharing your personal data with them, we’d be unable to fulfil your request.

We may share your personal data with affiliated companies within our corporate family, with third parties with which we have partnered to allow you to integrate their services into our own Services, and with trusted third party service providers as necessary for them to perform services on our behalf, such as:

  • Performing analysis of our Services and customers demographics
  • Communicating with you, such as by way email or survey delivery
  • Customer relationship management.

We only share your personal data as necessary for any third party to provide the services as requested or as needed on our behalf. These third parties (and any subcontractors) are subject to strict data processing terms and conditions and are prohibited from utilizing, sharing or retaining your personal data for any purpose other than as they have been specifically contracted for (or without your consent).

And of course we use your personal data to communicate with you. We may contact you directly or through a third party service provider regarding products or services you have signed up or purchased from us, such as necessary to deliver transactional or service related communications. We may also contact you with offers for additional services we think you’ll find valuable if you give us consent, or where allowed based upon legitimate interests. You don’t need to provide consent as a condition to purchase our goods or services (with some exceptions but these will be clearly marked and explained where applicable).

Who do we share your personal data with?

We sometimes share your personal data with trusted third parties. Or we use tools and plugins, provided by 3rd parties, who have access to your personal data.

Companies and plugins that we use include Google (Analytics and AdWords mostly).

This means that these tools and plugins have access to some of your personal data (e.g.  ip addresses, device information, access information, cookies, visit duration and tracking, mouse and swipe actions). While we make every effort to ensure we use these tools and plugins in a GDPR compliant way, it is ultimately these tools and plugins owners responsibility for the correct handling of the personal data they collect thru our website

Here’s the policy we apply to and request from those organizations to keep your data safe and protect your privacy:

  • We provide only the information they need to perform their specific services.
  • They may only use your data for the exact purposes we specify in our contract with them.
  • We work closely with them to ensure that your privacy is respected and protected at all times.
  • If we stop using their services, any of your data held by them will either be deleted or rendered anonymous.

Although we share this information with them, we explicitly do not store any of your analytics or traffic information.

How long will we keep your personal data?

Whenever we collect or process your personal data, we’ll only keep it for as long as is necessary for the purpose for which it was collected. At the end of that retention period, your data will either be deleted completely or anonymized, for example by aggregation with other data so that it can be used in a non-identifiable way for statistical analysis and business planning.

Some examples of customer data retention periods:

contact forms

We store your newsletter, comments, and contact form related info for about 5 years, which is the period of time when we redesign our site, and that is when we delete that old information.

How we protect your personal data?

We know how much data security matters to you. With this in mind, we will treat your data with the utmost care and take all appropriate steps to protect it.

We secure access to all transactional areas of our websites and apps using ‘https’ technology. All your sensitive information (e.g. your passwords if you had chosen to create an account with us) is stored securely and encrypted. All our communication with you through our website are done over a secure and encrypted 256 bit or higher SSL connection.

Access to your personal data is password-protected, and sensitive data such as payment card information) is securely sent over to the payment gateways that we use. We do not collect and keep your credit card, PayPal or other payment information, that is processed by the payment gateways we use.

We regularly monitor our systems for possible vulnerabilities and attacks, and we carry out testing periodically to identify ways to further strengthen security.

Where your personal data may be processed

Sometimes we will need to share your personal data with third parties and suppliers outside the European Economic Area (EEA). The EEA includes all EU Member countries as well as Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway.

We operate in several countries across several continents, so it is likely that your personal data might be transferred to a third-party data processors in countries that are outside the EEA such as Australia or the USA. For example, this might be required in order to fulfil your order, process your payment details or provide support services.

If we do this, we have procedures in place to ensure your data receives the same protection as if it were being processed inside the EEA. For example, our contracts with third parties stipulate the standards they must follow at all times. If you wish to receive more information about this, please contact us.
