Privacy Policy

1. Scope and Collection

This Privacy Policy explains how Pastroding collects, uses, stores, shares, and otherwise handles personal information through the Website and Services.

Depending on your interaction with the Services, information may include your name, email, location, payment or financial details, device information, technical identifiers, usage data, and other information needed to operate the Services.

Information may be collected when you register, manage or purchase a Subscription, use the Services, contact Support, interact with Website features, submit Feedback, or otherwise visit the Website. Third-party providers may also help analyze Website usage.

2. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Pastroding and its providers may use cookies, pixels, beacons, and similar technologies to record Website activity.

Third-party advertising providers may use such technologies to recognize previous interactions and support advertising across other websites, including behavioural advertising.

Because third parties may operate their own tracking technologies, Pastroding does not necessarily control their collection or processing practices. Their respective privacy policies apply.

3. Purposes and Legal Grounds

Pastroding processes personal information only where a lawful basis exists.

Processing may be necessary to:

  1. Create and manage accounts and Memberships.
  2. Process payments and Subscription transactions.
  3. Provide and administer the Services.
  4. Send transactional, administrative, or permitted marketing communications.
  5. Monitor transactions and support delivery activities.
  6. Determine general geographic information.
  7. Analyze Website use.
  8. Secure, maintain, and improve the Services.
  9. Develop features and products.
  10. Meet legal or contractual obligations.

Information is processed only as reasonably appropriate for the relevant purpose and as permitted by law.

4. Controller and Processor

For GDPR purposes, Pastroding generally acts as the data controller for information where it determines the purposes and methods of processing.

In some circumstances, it may act as a processor for another party and will then follow applicable instructions and legal requirements.

Processing may be subject to GDPR (EU) 2016/679, the ePrivacy Directive (2002/58/EC), and other applicable privacy laws.

5. Security, Retention, Sharing and Providers

Pastroding uses technical and organizational safeguards intended to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, destruction, alteration, misuse, or disclosure. Payment information is protected through appropriate encryption and payment-security measures, including applicable PCI requirements.

Information may be processed outside the EEA where necessary. Appropriate transfer safeguards will be used where legally required.

Personal information is generally retained only as long as reasonably necessary to provide Services, manage contractual relationships, satisfy legal obligations, resolve disputes, establish or defend claims, maintain business records, or enforce agreements. Information that is no longer needed may be deleted, destroyed, anonymized, or securely disposed of.

Where lawful and appropriate, information may be shared within PASTROUMI LIMITED for legitimate business purposes, including restructuring, mergers, analysis, reporting, statistics, and credit-risk assessment.

Information may also be disclosed when necessary to comply with law, regulatory requirements, court orders, legal claims, fraud investigations, security requirements, or the Terms of Use. External providers may process information for IT, payments, finance, auditing, monitoring, personalization, analytics, customization, and related operations. Their access should be limited to what is required for their assigned services, and they may not independently use the information for unrelated purposes.

6. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction and applicable law, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal information.

Certain account information can be managed through your account. A “Remember me” option may store a login preference on your device.

The scope and availability of privacy rights depend on applicable law, processing basis, information type, and circumstances.

7. Policy Updates and Contact

Pastroding may amend this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in Services, technology, legal requirements, or processing practices.

Where legally required, appropriate notice will be provided. Otherwise, continued use after an updated policy becomes effective may constitute acknowledgment.
