This policy applies to DunkingbirdDesigns products and services. Please understand that there may be sections below that do not relate to your usage of our website or services. 

  1. Our Policy’s Aims

1.1 The DunkingbirdDesigns Privacy Policy applies to DunkingbirdDesigns' website unless specified, its subsidiaries, contractors, representatives, agents, and resellers while they are employed on our behalf (collectively “we,” “us” or “our”). 

1.2 Our Privacy Policy clarifies the processing of your personal data by us and establishes what information we collect, or which is provided to us, and how we use and shield your personal data in acquiescence with appropriate ruling. 

1.3 Personal data refers to any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (“data subject”), where this identification can be made directly or indirectly, by means of identifiers including your name, ID number, email coordinates, phone number, online identifiers such as cookies, your locality, your genetic, economic, cultural or social distinctiveness or other information that is particular to you. 

1.4 We do not mean material that only denotes to a business corporation or organization. We also do not mean material that has been "anonymised," either by removing or de-identifying all specific identifiers. Anonymous data is not personal data when the anonymisation is irreversible. When we refer to anonymous data, we mean data that cannot be reversed into personal data. 

1.5 As a data controller, we pledge ourselves to shielding the privacy of our website visitors and users of our products and services with respect to the processing of your personal data. Wherever we collect and process your personal data, we will limit the collection and retention to what is suitable, relevant and needed for our purposes and it will be kept in a form which allows for your identification no longer than necessary for the purpose for which we process your personal data. We refer to this as data minimisation. 

1.6 Where we store your personal data for longer periods for statistical purposes, as allowed, we will use suitable protections. Appropriate law describes “statistical purpose” as any gathering of personal data, where the consequence of processing is for aggregate data, so the personal data we collect from you is anonymised or pseudonymised. For instance, the processing of your personal data might be for the business-related process of calculating users, products, sales and several metrics. We likewise share statistical data that has been anonymised and aggregated geographically and so, cannot be used to recognise individuals, with third parties for trend analytics.  

1.7 Our policy provides you with the lawful bases for the collection of your personal data, lets you know how long personal data is stored and the reasons why, and how in some situations, they are necessary to retain. The length of this retention and how you may choose to request that we delete some or all your personal data and the consequences of the deletion are explained in this policy.  

1.8 Some of the lawful bases we rely on are contractual and service necessity, consent, legitimate interests and compliance with legal obligations. 

1.9 We want you to have an understanding of how and why we process your personal data so that you can make informed decisions on whether to allow us to retain your personal data or delete them.

Section 2 clarifies your rights under appropriate law and Section 3 lets you know when the Policy relates.

1.10 We endeavor to keep the policy easy to comprehend and transparent, and so we desist from technical data overload. If you desire to have additional particulars on how we process your personal data, please contact us.

  • in compliance to a legal requirement by a court of law or in the public interest;
  • in response to a third-party subpoena, if we believe on the advice of our attorneys that we are required to respond;

The servers that are part of this platform may consequently be positioned in a country not where you live. In some instances, these may be countries outside of the European Economic Area (“EEA”), where the level of protection provided by the laws of these countries may be different than the standard enshrined in the GDPR. Regardless, we provide the same GDPR-level of protection to all personal data. At the same time, when we transfer personal data outside of the EEA, we always make sure to put in place appropriate and suitable safeguards which lawfully obligate the receiving party to follow to a high level of safety, and to ensure that your data remains protected at all times and that your rights are protected. Situations where we transfer personal data outside of the EEA include provision of our products and services, processing of transactions and your payment details, and the provision of support services.

  1. Storage, Retention, and Deletion of Your Personal Data

8.1 Storage of Information  

We store info that we collect on our servers or on the servers of our subsidiaries, affiliates, contractors, representatives, contractors, agents, or resellers who are working on our behalf. The data on our servers is accessible via an encrypted connection and is limited to authorised people only.

8.2 Access by our contractors  

We and our personnel and agents who are at work on our behalf assume consistent maintenance of your personal data. All third parties need agree to observe the privacy of our users, and to protect the privacy of their personal information. Consequently your personal data cannot be shared with others, and there must be no direct marketing by the third parties.

8.3 Retention and Deletion of Your Personal Data  

We retain personal data collected in compliance with the lawful obligation that personal data be retained in a form that allows identification of our data requirements for no longer than is needed for the purposes for which the data is being handled.

We will not keep your personal data in a form that allows you to be identified for longer than reasonably necessary with regards to the purpose for which the information was collected. We will also anonymise and aggregate data to the degree that we can achieve. We may retain online identifiers, location data and other personal data for statistical purposes as permitted under appropriate regulations. We may also adjust the personal data we keep in such a way that you cannot be identified. We will only retain your personal data for extra time following the end of the purpose for which we gathered it when allowed for valid interests or necessary by regulation. Otherwise, your personal data will be automatically deleted from our system once the legal basis for the collection and processing has been fulfilled.

  1. How You Can Request Deletion

You may request DunkingbirdDesigns to delete your personal data by submitting a request by email to support [at] DunkingbirdDesigns dot com. In some situations and to the degree allowable by law, for example, to provision the service or contract, for compatible use for our legitimate interests, under national tax, contract, criminal, or secrecy laws, we may hold your personal data despite your requests for erasure.

  1. Effects of Request – How Long Before Deletion and Consequences of Deletion

10.1 Contingent on what you request and how many requests we receive, it is likely for your requests to be actioned from within seven to thirty days.  

10.2 If you request the erasure of your data (“right to be forgotten”), we will generally action this within thirty days, which may only include a record in our system that once the lawful basis for processing your personal data has been satisfied, your personal data needs to be punctually deleted. 

  1. Data Security

11.1 Precautions for safety of personal material  

We preserve organisational, procedural, and physical precautions for the security of your personal data.

11.2 Administrative safeguards  

Right of entry to the personal data of our users is restricted to sanctioned personnel who have a genuine need to know based on their job descriptions. In the case of third-party contractors who process personal information on our behalf, similar requirements are imposed. These third parties are contractually bound by confidentiality clauses, even when they leave. Access is revoked upon their departure.

11.3 Technical safeguards  

We keep your personal information in our databases using the shields described above. Third parties who we hire to provide services and who have access to our users' data are required to implement privacy and safety practices that we deem suitable.

11.4 Physical safeguards  

Access to user information in our database is not allowed except via encrypted connection by authorised personnel. Physical removal of personal data from our location is prohibited. Third-party contractors who process personal data on our behalf agree to provide practical physical protections.

11.5 Proportionality  

We try to collect no more personal data from you than is essential by the purpose for which we gather it. This, in turn, diminishes the total risk of harm should data loss or a breach in security happen: the smaller the amount of data we collect, the lesser the total risk.

11.6 Notification in the event of breach  

In the improbable event of a break in the security of personal data, we will advise all users who are actually or possibly affected. We may adapt the method of notice dependent on the situations. Where the only contact information that we have for you is an email address, then the notice will be by email. Where we have reason to believe there are affected users for which we have no contact info on file, we may give notice via publication on our company website. We reserve the right to stay notification if we are asked to do so by law administration or other authorities, or if we believe that giving notice straightaway will increase the risk of harm to our user body overall.
