Effective from 1st August 2020. This is the Privacy Policy for GlobalRadio Store.
As an essential part of our business, we collect and manage personal data. We collect personal data and other information from and about you through this website and its associated mobile sites, applications and widgets (collectively, the “Site”). The Site and all of our services on the Site are the “GlobalRadio Store”. Event Merchandising Ltd (or “we”) operates the GlobalRadio Store Website. We are a controller of the personal data collected from and about you through the GlobalRadio Store. In doing so, we observe UK and EU data protection legislation, and are committed to protecting and respecting your privacy and rights.
In order that you are reliably informed about how we operate, we have developed this Privacy Policy. This policy describes the ways in which we collect, manage, process, store and share information about you as a result of you visiting this site. This Privacy Policy also provides you with information about how you can have control over our use of your data.
Please note that we will be updating this Privacy Statement on a regular basis in order to keep you fully up-to-date with our approach to General Data Protection Regulations.
If you have any comments or queries regarding our use of your data, or you wish to unsubscribe from receiving marketing communications from us, please contact us by email at: merchandise@global.com
What types of data do we collect?
There are three types of personal data we collect in connection with the GlobalRadio Store - information you give us, information collected automatically and information from other sources.
Information you give us
Registration data. Registration data is the information you submit to register to receive marketing communications and newsletters from us. Registration data may include, for example, first name, surname, email address, gender, country, postcode and birthdate.
Public data and posts. Public data and posts consist of reviews that you post on GlobalRadio Store and the personal data about you that accompanies those posts or content, which may include a name, user name, comments, likes, status, profile information and image. Public data and posts are always public, which means they are available to everyone and may be displayed in search results on external search engines. Please review the “User Content” section of the Terms and Conditions of Use, which addresses how we may use your public data and posts.
Correspondence data. In the course of corresponding with us by telephone or email, you may provide us with personal data.
Information collected automatically
Activity data. When you access and interact with GlobalRadio Store, we may collect certain information about those visits. For example, when you seek to access
GlobalRadio Store, our servers receive and record information about your computer, device, and browser, including potentially your IP address, browser type, and other software and hardware information. We also may receive information about how you landed on this site, such as the website you visited prior to arrival or the search term you entered into the search engine that led you to GlobalRadio Store. We also may receive information about the website or application you visit when you leave this site. If you access GlobalRadio Store from a mobile or other device, we may collect a unique device identifier assigned to that device, advertising ID, geolocation data, or other transactional information for that device. Cookies and other tracking technologies (such as browser cookies, pixels, and beacons) and Adobe Flash technology (commonly called “Flash cookies”) may also be collected. These technologies may also be used to collect and store information about your usage of GlobalRadio Store or access to other content served by or on behalf of us, such as pages you have visited, content you have viewed, search queries you have run and advertisements you have seen. For more information, please visit our Cookie Policy.
Information from other sources. We may supplement the information we collect through GlobalRadio Store with information from other sources, such as commercially available sources and publicly available information from social media services. For example, data from social media. If you access GlobalRadio Store through a social media service, the data we collect may also include your user ID and/or user name associated with that social media service, any information or content you have permitted the social media service to share with us, such as your profile picture, email address or friends lists, and any information you have made public in connection with that social media service. When you access this site through social media services or when you connect the site to social media services, you are authorising us to collect, store, and use such data and content in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
Associating non-personal data with personal data. If we associate non-personal data with personal data, we will treat that combined information as personal data.
Sensitive data. We ask that you do not send us, and you do not disclose, any sensitive personal data (such as social security numbers, information related to racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religion or other beliefs, genetic or health status or sexual orientation, criminal background or trade union membership) on or through GlobalRadio Store or otherwise.
Financial information. In some cases, we may use an unaffiliated payment service to allow you to purchase a product or make payments (“Payment Service”). If you wish to purchase a product or make a payment using a Payment Service, you will be directed to a Payment Service webpage. Any information that you provide to a Payment Service will be subject to the applicable Payment Service’s privacy policy, rather than this Privacy Policy. However, if we receive contact information from the Payment Service (to fulfil your order, for example), we will handle that information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. We have no access to any financial information that you provide to the Payment Service.
Please note that if you are making a financial transaction through GlobalRadio Store, then all your information - including financial and credit card information - that is obtained as part of that transaction will be managed according to our Terms & Conditions and Privacy Policy.
Data about other people. If you provide us with any personal data about another person, company or organisation (for example, in connection with a referral), you represent that you have the right to give us that information to use for the purpose described on GlobalRadio Store.
