Privacy Policy

MIG Media (hereinafter ‘MIG MEDIA’, ‘we’) manages this website, and we understand that you are concerned about how your personal data may be used and exchanged. We have drawn up this privacy policy to inform you of how we collect, use and exchange information for use on this website.

Please keep in mind that the guidelines described here apply only to information collected via this website and, if applicable, via our customer service in combination with this website, and do not necessarily correspond to our regulations concerning information collected via other websites managed by us, or via offline media.

If you have any questions about this privacy policy, please contact us via email at service@mig-media.com.

What personal data of mine is collected and stored?

We collect and store data that you either enter on this website or provide to our customer service. This data is used to supply the requested information or the products ordered, to process and send orders, to send order confirmations and to provide customer service. The data may also be used to contact you about purchases, special offers or new functionalities on the website.

We do not collect or store any personal data concerning: your physical/mental health; memberships to any trade unions; race or ethnic background; political, religious or other views; sex life; or criminal history.

There are certain other types of information that we can collect and store automatically when you visit this website. For example, every time you visit this site we can save your IP address, browser information and the domain name of the referring site. We also collect information on visitor trends and site usage, which is used to evaluate and improve the website, and to provide our customers with a satisfactory shopping experience.

Like many other websites we also use cookies, which are small files that your browser saves onto your hard drive. Cookies help us to identify members and to improve their shopping experience, e.g. by keeping items in their shopping cart if they leave the site without using the checkout. This website does not use cookies to save your account information; this data is stored securely on the website server. When you log in on this website using your username and password, a secure session ID is created, which the server then uses to transmit your data. We also use cookies to collect information on how you use the website. They are used to find out which website you visited directly before this one; we do not collect any information on your use of other websites. Although most browsers automatically accept cookies, the ‘Help’ option in most browser menus will explain how you can prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to configure your browser to alert you when you receive a new cookie, or how to turn cookies off. However, we recommend leaving cookies turned on, so that we can offer you a better shopping experience on this website.

Who can you exchange personal data with?

We do not share, sell, or lease out any personal data that you provide via this website or our customer service, except with your permission or as otherwise described in this privacy policy.

We employ third parties to provide services for the management of this website, such as payment processing and authorisation, fraud protection and credit risk reduction, product modification, order processing/shipment, distribution of marketing and promotional materials, website evaluation, data analysis and (if applicable) data cleansing. Although we do supply these third parties with personal data, we only authorise them to use the data in connection with the services they provide, and we take steps to ensure that these third parties take appropriate action to comply with all applicable data protection laws.

We may disclose personal data if we believe in good faith that it is required by law, that it constitutes a response to a statutory request, or that it is necessary for the protection of the rights, property or security of MIG MEDIA or of our affiliated companies, partners, customers or others. We may exchange non-personal data with our marketing partners, advertisers and other third parties. Examples of such non-personal information include the number of users who either visited our website during a certain period, or who purchased a certain product via this website. This information is usually expressed in the form of numbers.

As with any company, it is possible that as our activities develop we may sell or acquire other online stores or business assets. In such transactions, customer data often forms part of the transferred assets. In the unlikely event that we or a substantial portion of our business assets are acquired by a third party, such data may form part of the transferred business assets (unless the data was collected under a former privacy policy that prevented this type of disclosure). In such circumstances, the acquired party must do its utmost to demand that the acquiring party upholds the regulations described in this privacy policy.

What steps are taken to keep personal data stored securely and confidentially?

We take a range of security measures to protect the personal data that we collect. Among these is the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology used to protect credit-card information. If you place an order on this website, you will be asked to create an account and provide an email address and password. You must enter a correct email address and password in order to gain access to your account information. To protect your personal data, it is of course important that you do not disclose your password to just anyone. If you wish to cancel a password, or if you are aware of the loss, theft or unauthorised use of a password, please contact us via support@mig-media.com.
We determine which employees have access to personal information, and to what type.

How long do you keep personal data?

In general we only keep personal data for the duration of the purposes described in this privacy policy, in order to comply with legal data retention requirements. We take measures to ensure that the personal data we collect is not stored any longer than necessary.

What happens if I click a link to or from this website?

This website may contain links to other third-party websites. Please keep in mind that the regulations described in this privacy policy do not apply to information collected via other websites. When leaving this site, we recommend that you read the privacy policy of the website that you go to.

If you accessed this site via a link from one of our advertising or marketing partners, the pages may appear within the framework of the relevant advertising or marketing partner. Nevertheless, the data that you provide on these pages will be collected by us, and this privacy policy shall apply to the use thereof.

What about online surveys?

We carry out online surveys from time to time. If you take part in an online survey, we may ask for certain information such as your age, postcode, shopping behaviour, email address and/or postal address. This information will be handled in accordance with this privacy policy.

How will I be informed of changes to this privacy policy?

If material changes are made to this privacy policy, we will place a notification on this website to keep users up-to-date on the changes. In some cases we may send an email to inform users. We recommend checking this website regularly for any changes to the privacy policy.

Access and deletion

As a consumer, you are entitled to view, correct or delete your data. You can withdraw any explicit permission for commercial contact that you may have given by using the ‘unsubscribe’ function.
