Xado UK Privacy Notice

Last updated November 23, 2018

Xado.co.uk knows that you care how information about you is used and shared and we appreciate your trust in us to do that carefully and sensibly. This notice describes the privacy policy of Xado.co.uk. By visiting Xado.co.uk, you are accepting and consenting to the practices described in this Privacy Notice.

1. Access Data and Hosting

You can visit our websites without providing any information about yourself. With every visit of a website, the web server automatically stores only the so-called server log files, which may contain the name of the requested file, your IP address, date and time of access, the volume of data transmitted and the requesting provider (access data) and records each visit.

This access data is analysed exclusively to ensure a fault-free operation of the website and to improve our services. Pursuant to Art. 6 Paragraph 1 (1) (f) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), this ensures protection of our legitimate prevailing interests regarding the correct presentation of our services. All access data is deleted no later than seven days after the end of your visit of the website.

Hosting Services by a Third-Party Provider

As part of processing on our behalf, a third-party provider performs for us services concerning hosting and presentation of the website. This ensures protection of our legitimate prevailing interests regarding the correct presentation of our services. All data collected when using this website or as part of respective forms in the online shop, as described below, is processed on the servers of such provider. Processing on other servers can only take place in the context set out here.

This provider is located in the United Kingdom or one of the countries of the European Union or the European Economic Area.

2. Collection and Use of Data for Processing of Contracts and Opening a Customer Account

We collect personal data if you disclose it to us voluntarily in connection with your order, when you contact us (e.g., through a contact form or by email) or when you create a customer account. Required fields are labelled as such since, in these cases, we absolutely need respective data for the purposes of executing your contract, processing your contact form or opening the customer account, and if you don’t provide said data, you won’t be able to complete the order and/or create the account or send the contact form. Which data is collected is stated in the corresponding input forms. We use the data that you have provided pursuant to Art. 6 Paragraph 1 (1) (f) of the GDPR for the conclusion of contracts and processing of your requests. After complete processing of the contract or deletion of your customer account, your data will be blocked in consideration of tax and commercial retention periods and deleted after expiry of these periods, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data, or a legally permitted further use of data has been reserved by our website, about which we will inform you accordingly below. It is possible to delete your customer account at any time. This can be done by sending a message to the responsible person named below or by using the corresponding function in your customer account.

3. Data Transfer

Pursuant to Art. 6 Paragraph 1 (1) (f) of the GDPR, we can pass your data on to the transport company commissioned with the delivery, insofar as this is necessary for the delivery of the goods. Depending on which payment service provider you choose during the order process, we will pass your data collected for the purpose of payment on to the credit institution commissioned with the payment and, when appropriate, the payment service provider authorised by us may transfer said data to the chosen payment service. The payment service providers chosen by you also partially collect such data themselves if you create an account with them. In this case, during the order process, you must log in on the provider’s website using your access data. In this respect, the privacy policy of the corresponding payment service provider shall apply.

4. Email Newsletter

Email Advertising and Subscription to Newsletter

When you subscribe to our newsletter, we use the necessary data or the data specifically provided by you in order to regularly send you our email newsletter with your consent pursuant to Art. 6 Paragraph 1 (1) (f) of the GDPR.

You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time via the link provided in the newsletter or by sending a message to the responsible person named below. After your cancellation, your email address will immediately be deleted from our newsletter distribution list, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data, or we reserve the right to use data in excess thereof, which is permitted by law and about which we inform you in this declaration.

5. Cookies and Web Analysis

In order to make your visit to our website attractive, to enable the use of certain functions, to display suitable products or to conduct market research, we use so-called cookies on various pages.

Use of Google (Universal) Analytics for Web Analysis

For the purpose of website analysis, this website uses Google (Universal) Analytics, a web analysis service of Google LLC (www.google.co.uk). This ensures protection of our legitimate prevailing interests regarding the optimized presentation of our services pursuant to Art. 6 Paragraph 1 (1) (f) of the GDPR. Google (Universal) Analytics uses methods that enable analysis of the website you visit, e.g., cookies. The automatically collected information about your use of this website is generally transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

Only in exceptional cases, the full IP address will be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. The anonymized IP address transmitted by your browser in the context of Google Analytics is generally not merged with other Google data. When the purpose of using cookies and Google Analytics is completed by us, the data collected in this context will be deleted.

Based on this agreement between the US and the European Commission, the latter has determined the appropriate level of data protection regarding the companies holding the “Privacy Shield” certificate.
