Introduction

Pink TV International (hereinafter « we », « us » or « our ») operates the websites pinkx.eu and is the controller of the information collected or provided via this Website.

 

Please read this privacy policy carefully, as your access to and use of our Website signifies that you have read, understand and agree to all terms within this privacy policy.

If you do not agree with any part of this privacy policy or our terms, please do not access or continue to use our Website or otherwise submit your personal data.

 

We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data If you have any questions about our privacy practices, please see “Contact Information” below for information on how to contact us. We collect, process and retain personal data to the extent it is necessary to provide users with our service. This privacy policy applies to information we collect:

- on this Website,

- in e-mail, text and other communications between you and this Website, when you interact with our advertising and applications on third-party websites and services, if those applications or advertising include links to this privacy policy.

It does not apply to information collected by:

us offline or through any other means, including on any other website operated by us or any third party (including our affiliates and subsidiaries); or any third party (including our affiliates and subsidiaries), including through any application or content (including advertising) that may link to or be accessible from or on the Website. Clicking on those links or enabling those connections may allow third parties to collect or share data about you. We do not control these third-party websites and are not responsible for their privacy statements.

The data we collect about you

Personal Data, or personal information, means any information about an individual from which that person can be identified (“Personal Information”). This does not include anonymised or pseudonymised data. We may collect, use, store and transfer different kinds of personal data about you which we have grouped together as follows:

 

- Identity Data includes date of birth.

 

- Contact Data includes email address.

 

- Financial Data includes masked payment card number (last 4 digits), expiry date.

 

- Transaction Data includes details about payments made to and from you and other details of products and services you have purchased or received from us.

 

- Technical Data includes Internet Protocol (IP) address, your login details, browser type and version, time zone setting and location, browser plug-in types and versions, operating system, platform and other device technology used to access this Website.

 

- Profile Data includes your username, purchases or orders you make, interests, preferences, feedback and survey responses.

 

- Usage Data includes information about how you use our Website, products and services.

 

- Marketing and Communications Data includes your preferences in receiving marketing communications from us and our third parties and your communication preferences.

 

We may also collect, use and share your data to produce and share aggregated information that does not identify you.

 

Aggregated data may be derived from your personal data but is not considered personal data because this data does not directly or indirectly reveal your identity.

 

For example, we may aggregate your usage data to calculate the percentage of users accessing a specific Website feature.

 

For example, we may use your data to generate statistics about our users, to calculate the percentage of users accessing a specific Website feature, to calculate ad impressions served or clicked on or to publish visitor demographics. We do not collect special categories of personal information about you (this includes details about your race or ethnicity, religious or philosophical beliefs, political opinions, trade union membership, information about your health and genetic and biometric data). However, depending on your use of our Website and services, your personal information may include information from which inferences can be drawn about your sex life or sexual orientation (“Sensitive Personal Information”). The collection, use and disclosure of this sensitive personal information is necessary to provide you with some of our services.

How is your personal information collected?

We use different methods to collect information about you, including:

 

- Direct interactions. This is information that you provide when you search on our Website or fill in forms on our Website, including when you register to use our Website, subscribe to our service, participate in surveys, enter a competition or promotion sponsored by us, when there is a problem with our Website or when you request other services.

 

- Automated technologies or interactions. See “Use of cookies and other third-party tracking technologies” for details of how we may automatically collect your personal information.

 

- Third-party or publicly available sources. We may receive personal information about you from third parties, for example from other websites controlled by us or from members of our group, our business partners or other third parties and public sources.

User Contributions

We may provide areas on our Website where you can post information about yourself, upload content (such as images, videos, audio files, etc.), and post comments or reviews of content on the Website. If you use a forum, blog, user comment features, community, or any interactive sharing or social features that may be offered on our Website, you should be aware that any personal information you submit, display, or post may be read, collected, used, and disclosed by other users of those features, by us, and by third parties without restriction, except to the extent that limited access features are available, if any. In addition, such postings may appear on other websites or when searches are conducted for the subject of your posting. If you post your email address, you may receive unsolicited messages. We cannot control who reads your posting or what other users may do with the information you voluntarily post. We therefore encourage you to exercise discretion and caution with respect to your personal information. Once you have posted information, you may not be able to change or delete it. To request deletion of your personal information, please email us at support@pinkx.eu. In some cases, we may not be able to delete your personal information. In this case, we will let you know and explain why.

Information gathered using automatic data gathering technologies

As you navigate through and interact with our Website, we use automatic data collection technologies to collect certain information about your equipment, browsing actions and patterns, including information such as your IP address, browser type, operating system, referring web page and pages visited; your location, mobile carrier, device information (including device and application IDs), search terms and cookie information. We also use these technologies to collect information about your online activities over time and across third-party websites or other online services (“interest-based advertising”). See “Choices About How We Collect, Use and Disclose Your Personal Information” below for information on how to opt-out of behavioral tracking on this Website and how we respond to web browser signals and other mechanisms that allow consumers to exercise choice regarding behavioral tracking. The technologies we use for this automatic data collection may include the following:

 

- Cookies (or browser cookies). Cookies are small text files that are stored in your web browser or downloaded to your device when you visit a Website. Cookies are then sent back to the originating Website on each subsequent visit, or to another Website that recognizes that cookie and enables a Website to recognize a user’s device.

 

- Strictly Necessary Cookies: These are cookies that are necessary for the operation of our Website. These include, for example, cookies that allow a user to log in to our Website and to verify whether a user is authorized to access a particular service or content.

 

- Analytical Cookies: These cookies allow us to recognize and count the number of users and to see how they use and explore our Website. These cookies help us to improve our Website, for example, by ensuring that all users can easily find what they are looking for.

 

- Functionality Cookies: These cookies are not essential, but they help us to personalize and enhance your online experience on our Website. This type of cookie allows us to recognize you when you return to our Website and to remember, for example, your language choice.

 

- Targeting Cookies: These cookies record a user’s visit to our Website, the pages a user has viewed and the links a user has followed in order to enable us to make our Website more relevant to users’ interests.

 

We do not require that you accept cookies and you may withdraw your consent to our use of cookies at any time by changing the privacy settings on your browser. However, if you refuse to accept cookies, certain features of our Website may be disabled and you may not be able to access certain parts of our Website. Unless you have adjusted your browser setting so that it will refuse cookies, our system will issue cookies when you browse our Website. Cookies may be either session or persistent cookies. A session cookie will automatically expire when you close your browser. A persistent cookie will remain active until it expires or you delete your cookies. Expiration dates are set in the cookies themselves; some may expire after a few minutes while others may expire after several years.

 

- Web Beacons. Our Website pages and emails may contain small electronic files known as web beacons (also referred to as clear gifs, pixel tags, single-pixel gifs, and clear GIFs), which are tiny graphics with a unique identifier similar in function to cookies. They are used to track the online movements of web users or to access cookies. Unlike cookies, which are stored on a user’s hard drive, web beacons are embedded invisibly on web pages (or in an email) and are about the size of the period at the end of this sentence. Web beacons may be used to deliver or communicate with cookies, to count users who have visited certain pages or opened an email, to understand usage patterns, and to generate other statistics relating to the Website (for example, to record the popularity of content on certain websites and to verify system and server integrity). We may also receive an anonymous identification number if you visit our site from an online advertisement displayed on a third-party website.

 

- Analytics. We use third-party analytics and advertising tools and technologies, in particular Google Analytics provided by Google, Inc., USA (“Google”). These tools and technologies collect and analyze certain types of information, including IP addresses, device and software identifiers, referring and exit URLs, on-site behavior and usage information, feature usage statistics and statistics, usage and purchase history, media access control address (MAC address), unique mobile device identifiers and other similar information through the use of cookies. The information generated by Google Analytics and DoubleClick about your use of the Website (including your IP address) may be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. Since we have enabled IP anonymization for Google Analytics, Google will anonymize the last octet of a particular IP address. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be sent to Google servers in the United States and shortened there. Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the Website, to compile reports on Website activity and to manage advertising content. To learn how to opt out of Google’s collection of information, see the “Choices about how we collect, use and disclose your personal information” section below.

Use of Cookies and Other Third-Party Tracking Technologies

Certain content or applications, including advertisements, are served on the Website by third parties, including advertisers, ad networks and servers, content providers, and application providers. These third parties may use cookies alone or in conjunction with web beacons or other tracking technologies to gather information about you when you use our Website. Unless expressly stated otherwise, our Website does not provide any personal information to these third parties. However, the information they collect may be associated with your personal information or may gather information, including personal information, about your online activities over time and across different websites and other online services. They may use this information to provide you with interest-based advertising or other targeted content. We do not control these third parties’ tracking technologies or how they may be used. If you have any questions about an advertisement or other targeted content, you should contact the responsible provider directly. To learn how to opt out of receiving targeted advertising from many providers, see "Choices About How We Collect, Use and Disclose Your Personal Information"

These services may include order fulfillment, credit card payment processing, fraud and risk detection and mitigation, providing customer service, conducting business analytics, content personalization, analytics, security, supporting the functionality of our Website, and contests and other features offered on our Website.

To a purchaser or other successor in the event of a merger, divestiture, restructuring, reorganization, dissolution, or other sale or disposition of all or a portion of our assets, whether as a going concern or as part of bankruptcy, liquidation, or similar proceeding, in which personal information held by us about our Website users is among the assets transferred. Should such a sale or transfer occur, we will use reasonable efforts to ensure that the entity to which we transfer your personal information uses it in a manner consistent with this Privacy Policy.

We may also share aggregated information with third parties to conduct general business analytics. This information does not contain any personal information and may be used to develop content and services that we think will be of interest to you and other users, and to target content and advertising.

Retention of personal information

We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements. When we no longer need to process your personal data for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy, we will delete it from our systems. Where permitted, we will also delete your personal data upon your request.

 

Information on how to request deletion of your data can be found in the section “Your rights regarding your personal information”. If you have any questions about our data retention practices, please email us at support@pinkx.eu. The period for which we retain your personal information, as necessary for compliance and legal enforcement purposes, varies and depends on the nature of our legal obligations and claims in each individual case.

How we protect the security of your personal information

We take appropriate security measures (including physical, electronic, and procedural measures) to protect your personal information from unauthorized access and disclosure. For example, only authorized employees are permitted to access personal information and may do so only for authorized business functions. In addition, we use encryption when transmitting your personal information between your system and ours, and we use firewalls to prevent unauthorized persons from gaining access to your personal information. Please note, however, that we cannot completely eliminate security risks associated with the storage and transmission of personal data. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your unique password and account information at all times. We are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained on the Website.

Choices About How We Collect, Use and Disclose Your Personal Information

We strive to provide you with choices regarding the personal information you provide to us.

 

You can choose not to provide us with certain personal information, but you may not be able to use certain features of our Website because this information may be needed to register as a member, purchase products or services, enter a contest, promotion, survey or sweepstakes, ask a question or initiate other transactions on our Website.

We may send you other types of transactional and relationship-based electronic communications, such as public service announcements, administrative information, and surveys, without providing you with an opportunity to opt out. Please note that opting out of receiving promotional email communications will only affect future activities or communications from us.

Please also note that we may ask you for additional information in order to verify your authorization to make the request and to honor the request.
