Personalisation and Automated Decision Making

If you visit our Website or use our App, you may receive personalised banner advertisements whilst browsing website of other companies. Any banner advertisements you see will relate to your browsing activity on our website from your computer or other devices.

These advertisements are provided by us via external market leading specialist providers using techniques such as pixels, web beacons, ad tags, mobile identifiers and ‘cookies’ placed on your computer or other devices(see further information on the use of cookies in our Cookie Policy. You can remove or disable cookies at any time – see Cookie Policy for further information.

We may analyse your browsing and purchasing activity online and your responses to marketing communications. The results of this analysis, together with other demographic data, allow us to decide what marketing communications are suitable for you and to ensure that we contact you with information on products, services, events and offers that are tailored and relevant to you. To do so, we use software and other technology for automated decision making.

This allows us to provide more personalised services and experiences, we may review personal data held by external social media platform providers about you, such as the personal data available on social media platforms such as Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, Twitter and Facebook. Some of our services enable you to sign-in via external social media platform providers such as Facebook. If you choose to sign-in via a third party app, you will be presented with a dialog box which will ask your permission to allow us to access your personal data (e.g. your full name, date of birth, email address and any other information you have made accessible).

We aim to update you about products and services which are of interest and relevance to you as an individual.To help us do this, we process personal data by profiling and segmenting, identifying what our customers like and ensuring messages we send them are relevant based on their demographics, interests, purchase behaviour, online web browsing activity and engagement with previous communications. We may also use your personal data to exclude you from communications which we feel are irrelevant to you. For example, we may exclude someone from resends of marketing emails when we know that person has already opened the original email sent.

Another example of how we may tailor our communications with you is that we may group individuals with similar interests using this data so we can send them product news or promotional offers that are relevant to that shared interest.

You may have the right to opt out of some automated processing, including profiling, at any time by:

informing us that you wish to opt out of automated processing by contacting our customer support team at [email protected]; and/or
contacting us by email to [email protected] or post to 201 East 5th Street suite 1000 Sheridan, WY 82801.

HOW WE PROTECT YOUR DATA

Our controls

Metal Addicted LLC is committed to keeping your personal data safe and secure and so we have numerous security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse and alteration of information under our control. Our security measures include: –

encryption of personal data;
regular cyber security assessments of all service providers who may handle your personal data;
regular planning to ensure we are ready to respond to cyber security attacks and data security incidents;
weekly penetration testing of systems;
security controls which protect our IT systems infrastructure and our premises from external attack and unauthorised access;
internal policies setting out our data security rules for our personnel; and
regular training for our employees.

We take data security very seriously and will use all reasonable endeavours to protect the integrity and security of the personal data we collect about you.

WHAT YOU CAN DO TO HELP PROTECT YOUR DATA

You should always be cautious when sharing your personal data. No one from our company will ever ask you to confirm any bank account or credit card details via email. If you receive an email claiming to be from Metal Addicted LLC asking you to do so, please ignore it and do not respond.

If you are using a computing device in a public location, we recommend that you always log out and close the website browser when you complete an online session.

In addition, we recommend that you take the following security measures to enhance your online safety:

When creating a password, use a difficult word/number combination of at least 8 characters and something that is not easily guessed or something that cannot be easily obtained such as your name, email address, or other personal data that can be easily obtained.
Frequently change your password (you can do this in your account settings.
Avoid using the same password for different online accounts.

HOW LONG WE KEEP YOUR DATA

We will not retain your personal data for longer than necessary for the purpose for which is has been obtained and then for as long as there is any risk of a potential claim, which will be dependent upon the limitation period for the particular type of claim. Various laws, accounting and regulatory requirements applicable to us also require us to retain certain records for specific amounts of time. In relation to your personal data, we will hold this only for so long as we require that personal data for legal or regulatory reasons or for legitimate organisational purposes. We will not keep your data for longer than is necessary for the purposes for which we collect them.

Our Data Retention Policy sets out the length of time we will usually retain personal data and where these default periods might be changed.

It is important to ensure that the personal data we hold about you is accurate and up-to-date, and you should let us know if anything changes, for example if you move position or work for a different organisation or change your phone number or email address. You can contact us by using the details set out in the “Contact us” section below.

INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS

The personal data we collect may be transferred to and stored in countries outside the US. This will typically occur when service providers are located outside the US or if you are based outside the US. These transfers are subject to special rules under data protection laws.

Some of these jurisdictions require different levels of protection in respect of personal data and, in certain instances, the laws in those countries may be less protective than the jurisdiction you are typically resident in. We will ensure that your personal data is only used in accordance with this Notice and applicable data protection laws and is respected and kept secure and where a third party processes your personal data on our behalf we will ensure that one of the following safeguards is implemented:

we will only transfer your personal data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data by the SEC;
where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts approved by the SEC which give personal data the same protection it has in the US; and
where we use providers based in the US, we may transfer data to them if they are part of the Privacy Shield which requires them to provide similar protection to personal data shared between the Europe Union.

Our directors and other individuals working for us may in limited circumstances access personal data outside of the US if they are on holiday abroad outside of the US. If they do so they will be using our security measures and will be subject to their arrangements with us which are subject to English Law and the same legal protections that would apply to accessing personal data within the US.

In limited circumstances the people to whom we may disclose personal data as mentioned in the “Who We Share Your Personal Data With” section above may be located outside of the US. In these cases, we will impose any legally required protections to the personal data as required by law before it is disclosed.

For further details please contact us by using the details set out in the “Contact us” section below.

YOUR RIGHTS

You have the following rights in relation to your personal data:

The right to be informed about how your personal data is being used.
The right to request access to personal data we hold about you.
The right to ask us to update and correct any out-of-date or incorrect personal data that we hold about you.
The right to object to processing of your personal data and/or to withdraw any consent you have given us and to opt out of any marketing communications that we may send you.
The right to restrict processing of your personal data.
The right to object to certain automated decision-making processes using your personal data including profiling.
The right to request that we erase your personal data in certain circumstances (the right to be forgotten) for example when the data are no longer necessary for the purpose for which we collected them.
The right to have your personal data provided to you by us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and transmitted to another data controller. This is known as the right to data portability.

You should note that some of these rights, for example the right to require us to transfer your data to another service provider or the right to object to automated decision making, may not apply as they have specific requirements and exemptions which apply to them and they may not apply to personal data recorded and stored by us. However, some have no conditions attached, so your right to withdraw consent or object to processing for direct marketing are absolute rights.

We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access the information (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is another appropriate security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it.

Whilst this Notice sets out a general summary of your legal rights in respect of personal data, this is a very complex area of law.

If you wish to exercise any of the above rights, you can always contact us using the details set out in the ‘Contact Us‘ section below.
