PRIVACY POLICY

Effective July 08, 2024

1. INTRODUCTION

This notice is intended to provide details on how I — or how this site — gather and process your personal information when you use https://electricove.com/. By providing your data, you confirm that you’re over 13 years of age.

CONTACT DETAILS

Here’s my full contact info:

Full name of legal entity: Electricove.com
Email:  info@electricove.com
Mobile Number: +8801521221148

It’s really important that the information I have about you is accurate and not out of date, so let me know if at any time your personal information changes by sending an email to  info@electricove.com

I may change this privacy policy now and then. If I do, I’ll change that “Effective” date at the top of the screen and publicize the fact that it’s changed with emails and/or notifications on the site. In the rest of this policy, I may use “I” or “we” or “the site” to refer to Electricove.com

2. HOW WE COLLECT AND USE INFORMATION

When I say I may process your personal data, I’m referring to what’s called Communication Data, which includes any communication you send to me. That may be sent through the contact form on our website, through email, social media messaging, social media posting, or anything else you may send me. The reason I process this is so I can communicate with you, to keep records, and for the establishment, pursuance, or defense of legal claims. My lawful ground for this processing is my legitimate interests, which in this case are to answer communications that have been sent to me, to maintain records, and to establish, pursue, or defend legal claims.

SOME EXAMPLES INCLUDE

Blogs and Forums. Let’s say I offer an opportunity for you to post information to forums or blogs (like Reddit) or other public areas on the Internet. By doing so, you consent to the posting of any Personal Information you might provide. You must be aware such Personal Information can be read, collected, or used by other people who visit these public areas on the Internet. I have no control over how they might use your Personal Information.

Inquiries: If you submit a question or comment in a contact form or customer support on my site, I’ll retain the info that you provide so that I can respond to you, as well as improve the Services and my customers’ or users’ or visitors’ use of my services.
Customer Data that can relate to any purchases of goods or services, which could include your name, title, address (billing or delivery), email address, contact details, phone number, purchase details, and card details. Why? I just process this data to provide the goods and/or services you’ve purchased and to keep records of those transactions. My lawful ground for processing that information is the performance of a contract between you and me and/or taking steps at your request to enter into such a contract.

Some examples include:

Registration: When you register on the Services, like when you sign up for a newsletter ask for information, or take part in a giveaway, you’ll be requested to provide Personal Information, which I’ll use to fulfill that request.

Surveys: Sometimes, the site may ask if you’d like to fill out a survey or an opinion poll. If that happens, the site only uses the data collected in an aggregate manner, not in individually identifiable form. I may use specific comments made on the surveys, but it would be without your data attached. It would be nameless information, in other words. I might reach out to you for more clarification on survey responses and possibly request permission to share. But I’ll never share anything personally identifiable that you shared on a survey unless you give me your consent.

User Data: this includes data about how you use the website and any online services together with any information that you post for publication on my website, or through other online services. I process this information so that I can operate the website and make sure that appropriate content is provided to you, to ensure the security of my website, to preserve back-ups or this site’s content and/or databases, and also to allow publication and administration of my website, other online services, and businesses. Our lawful ground for this processing is our legitimate interests which in this case are to enable us to properly administer our website and our business.

Technical Data: this might include information about your using the website as well as online services like your IP address, login data, the browser you use, your timezone, your login data, details about how often you use my website, and other technology on the devices you use to access electricove. All this data comes from our analytics tracking system. The site processes this data to analyze your use of the website and other online services, to protect and manage my business and website, to send you relevant website advertisements and content, and to understand how effective our advertising has been. Our lawful ground for this processing is our legitimate interests which, when it pertains to this technical data, are to let us properly administer our website and our business to grow our business and to decide on and refine our marketing strategy.

Some examples include:

Web Logs: We maintain web logs that automatically record basic info about everyone who visits the Services. We use information from the weblogs so that we can do a better job of designing the site, to work out which features are popular and which should be done away with, to improve our services, and for other analytic and managerial purposes. These weblogs might also be used to identify people who may misuse the Services. Here’s what these logs contain:

• The Internet domain from which you access the Services.
  • Your IP address.
  • What kind of browser and operating system you used
  • The time and date you visited the Services
  • Which pages you visited on the Services?
  • The address of the website you linked from to get to the Services.

Marketing Data: this includes information about your preferences when it comes to receiving marketing from us as well as our third parties and your communication preferences. By processing this information, it helps you to take part in promotions like competitions and free giveaways, to deliver appropriate website content and articles to you, and so that we can measure how effective our advertising is. Our lawful ground for this processing is our legitimate interests which in this case are to study how customers use our products/services, to develop them, to grow our business, and to decide our marketing strategy.

Even more specifically, the following are some examples of where this data might come from

Linking from Emails. If electricove sends you an e-mail and you click a link in that e-mail that takes you to any of our Sites, we’ll be able to identify your email address from that link you clicked and associate the email with the pages you visit on the Sites.
Visitors: if you’re just clicking around and visiting the Sites but not registering, asking for information, contacting electricove, or posting to a public area of the Services, and you didn’t come to the Sites from a link that was put in one of our email communications, then ordinarily we won’t collect any Personal Information about you except through web logs, as described below.
Web Logs: We maintain web logs that record basic information about everyone who visits the website. We use that information so that we can make a better site — so we know what people are using and aren’t using, so we can design a site people are more likely to enjoy, to improve our services, and for other managerial and analytic uses. We might also use web logs to identify people who may misuse the Site, like people who harass other users or engage in fraud. These web logs contain:

• The Internet domain from which you access the Services.
  • Your IP address.
  • What kind of browser and operating system you used
  • The time and date you visited the Services
  • Which pages you visited on the Services.
  • The address of the website you linked from to get to the Services.

If we’re required to collect personal information by law, or under the terms of the contract between us and you, and you don’t provide us with that information if we request it, we might not be able to perform the duties in the contract — like, for example, if we wanted to deliver goods to you but you wouldn’t provide us with sufficient information to do so.

We’ll only use your personal information for the purpose it was collected for or a reasonably compatible purpose if necessary.

Service Providers: Sometimes we contract with a third party to perform services and functions for us. These service providers might be given access to the information we collect so that they can perform the functions for which we’ve contracted them. However, they’ll be contractually bound to maintain the confidentiality of that information and not use it for any other purposes.

Those featured may collect your IP address and the page you’re visiting on electricove. The features may also set a cookie so that the feature can function properly. Your interactions with those buttons are governed by the privacy policy of the company that provides it.

Business Transfers. This isn’t likely to happen much, but if we were to transfer all or a substantial amount of our assets to another company, one of the assets we would probably include in such a transfer is the database of Personal Information.

Disclosures for Legal Reasons: When required to do so by law, regulation, or securities exchange requirements, we will disclose Personal Information. For example, if we’re ordered to do so by a court order or a subpoena or if it’s in response to a law enforcement agency’s request, or if we believe that such a disclosure would be appropriate in order to protect our legal rights or to safeguard someone’s property or safety.

HOW WE SHARE INFORMATION & WHY

We may have to share your personal data with the parties set out below:

* Other companies in our group who provide services to us.

* Professional advisers, like lawyers, insurers, auditors, and bankers

* Government bodies that require us to disclose processing activities

* With third party advertising platforms so that we can come up with marketing campaign advertising (for example, we might use your email address when creating a Facebook targeting audience)

* When you take part in an interactive area of our website, service, and products, and your information could be on display to other users: such information might include your name, profile photo, the comment, and other information you chose to provide at the time of submission. When it comes to Surveys, we’ll never share personally identifiable information without express consent.

* When a request for information has been submitted and we believe discloser would be in accordance with, or required by, any applicable law, regulation or legal process;

* If we believe your actions are inconsistent with our user agreements or policies, or to protect the rights, property and safety of Company or others;

* Third parties to whom we sell, transfer, or merge parts of our business or our assets.

* At your direction or with your consent or at your direction.

Any and all third parties to whom we transfer your data are required to respect its security and confidentiality and to treat it in accordance with the law. We only allow such parties to process your personal data for specified purposes and in accordance with our own instructions.

DATA RETENTION

We’ll only hold on to your personal data for as long as it’s necessary to fulfill the purposes for which we collected it, which includes for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

When we’re deciding how long to keep the data, we consider its amount, nature and sensitivity, potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure, the purposes for which it’s processed, and if these can be achieved by other means and legal requirements.

For tax purposes, the law does require us to keep basic information about our customers (including Contact, Identity, Financial and Transaction Data) for six years after they stop being customers.

In some circumstances we may anonymize — that’s remove anything identifying as far as names and other identifiable information — your personal data for statistical or research purposes, in which case we may use this data indefinitely without further notice to you.

YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS

You have rights under data protection laws that are in relation to your personal data, which include the right to request access, correction, erasure, restriction, transfer, to object to processing, to portability of data and (where the lawful ground of processing is consent) and to withdraw consent.

THIRD-PARTY LISTS

This site might include links to third-party websites, plug-ins, and applications. If you click on them or enable them, it may allow third parties to collect or share data about you. We don’t control those third-party sites and we’re not responsible for the privacy statements or terms of use they may or may not publish on their site. When you do leave electricove, we really encourage you to read the privacy notice of every other website you visit.

COOKIES

If you like, you can make it so your browser refuses some or all browser cookies, or you can make it so your browser sets off an alert when a website sets or accesses cookies. If you disable or refuse cookies, note that some parts of this site might become inaccessible or not function properly.

COLLECTION OF INFORMATION BY THIRD PARTIES

We might use a third-party advertising company to serve ads when you’re browsing electricove. If we do that, there’s a chance this company might use information — but that doesn’t include your name, address, email address, or phone number — about your visit to the Services so that they can provide relevant and appropriate ads about goods and services you might be interested in. When they’re serving ads to the Services, the advertiser might place or recognize a unique “cookie” on your browser.

electricove might offer you the opportunity to get in touch with other companies, like advertisers or marketing affiliates or content providers, to obtain information or to buy products or services. If you do give out that information, its use and security is governed by those companies’ policies and not by this privacy policy you’re reading now. Again, it’s always worth reading the privacy policies of companies that you interact with online.

We don’t make any representations or warranties about any of the other companies you might interact with through links or advertisements on electricove, or their privacy or security policies. Once you’ve clicked through to an unaffiliated website, this privacy policy doesn’t apply anymore.

We’ll always try to satisfy such requests in a reasonable time frame.
