Securing your personal information

Zapnito will take reasonable technical and organisational precautions to prevent the loss, misuse or alteration of your personal information and will store all the personal information we process on our secure servers.

Information relating to electronic transactions entered into via the Website will be protected by encryption technology.

Storage and Cross-border data transfers

We use service providers based around the world. Consequently, your personal information may be processed in countries outside of Europe, including in countries where you may have fewer legal rights in respect of your information than you do under local law. If we transfer personal information to a country outside the UK and the European Economic Area we will, as required by applicable law, ensure that your privacy rights are adequately protected with sufficient legal, technical, and organisational security controls.

We will keep your personal information for as long as we need it for the purposes set out in this privacy notice, and so this period will vary depending on your interactions with us. For example, we may keep a record of correspondence with you (for example if you have made a complaint about our services) for as long as is necessary to protect us from a legal claim. Where we no longer have a need to keep your information, we will delete it. Please note that where you unsubscribe from our marketing communications, we will keep a record of your email address to ensure we do not send you marketing emails in future.  Please contact us if you would like more information about how long your data is retained.

Marketing

We love to communicate with our customers and so, depending on your marketing preferences, we may use your personal information to send you marketing messages by email, post and via your browser.

If you no longer want to receive marketing communications from us (or would like to opt back in), you can change your preferences at any time by contacting contact@zapnito.com, clicking on the ‘unsubscribe’ link in any email, or updating your settings in your account. If you unsubscribe from marketing, please note we may still contact you with service messages from time to time (e.g. if we need to provide you with information about the services or products you have purchased from us).

You may also see ads for our Website on third party websites, including on social media. These ads may be tailored to you using cookies (which track your web activity, so enable us to serve ads to customers who have visited our Website). Where you see an ad on social media, this may be because we have engaged the social network to show ads to our customers, or users who match the demographic profile of our customers.  In some cases, this may involve sharing your email address with the social network. If you no longer want to see tailored ads you can change your cookie and privacy settings on your browser or via the cookie consent banner for these third party websites.
