This information is under no circumstances stored on AniPlus’s servers. Users may delete the details of the credit cards linked to their account at any time.

AniPlus uses Users’ personal data to communicate via e-mail and/or send them SMS messages relating to the operation of the service.

As a result of using the AniPlus Platform, Users may also receive commercial communications from third parties associated with the Platform, such as Facebook and Google, all this in accordance with the privacy preferences set by each User on the said Platforms.

Users may use their privacy management centre to unsubscribe from online marketing services or to close their account if they do not wish to receive samples with their AniPlus orders.

3.2.7. For statistical and service analysis purposes

AniPlus uses the information for statistical purposes in order to analyse User behaviour and trends, to understand how Users use the AniPlus Platform and to manage and improve the services offered, including the possibility of adding new, different services to the Platform.

Service providers for the anonymisation of some data: In order to prevent the misuse of Users’ data by third-party service providers, AniPlus may disclose Users’ data for the purpose of anonymising it so that it can be used solely for the provision of the service to Users.

In the case of subsidiaries located outside the EEA, the data will be transferred, using the systems established by the European Commission and the GDPR, to countries with an appropriate personal data protection level or through contracts approved by the European Commission establishing and guaranteeing the rights of data subjects.
Social media connected by Users: If a User connects his/her AniPlus account to other social media or to a third-party platform, AniPlus may use the information provided to such social media or third party, provided that it has been made available to AniPlus in compliance with the privacy policy of the social media or third-party platform in question.
Third parties associated with AniPlus for the purposes of commercial communications: AniPlus may, with a User’s express consent, transfer his/her personal data to third parties associated with AniPlus, provided that the User has given his/her express informed and unequivocal consent to such transfer of data and is aware of the purpose and recipient of such transfer.
Changes of ownership: If AniPlus’s ownership changes or the majority of its assets are acquired by a third party, Users are informed that AniPlus will transfer their data to the acquiring organisations in order to continue to provide the services subject to the processing of data.

3.5.2. Purpose

To consider the Applicant’s present or future suitability for any of the positions available at AniPlus.

3.5.3. Legal Basis for Processing

Before submitting their application, Applicants must consent to the processing of their data, expressly agreeing to everything set forth in this Privacy Policy.

3.5.4. Recipients of the Data

An Applicant’s data may be accessed by technology service providers and platforms contracted by AniPlus for the purpose of managing its recruitment processes. An example of these is Greenhouse Software, Inc., which is located in the United States of America and has been contracted by AniPlus to manage its recruitment tasks and contracting processes. This means that the personal data of Applicants located outside the United States will be transferred to the United States. Since the EU Commission has decided that US data privacy laws do not provide an adequate level of protection for personal data, the transfer will be subject to appropriate additional safeguards in accordance with standard contractual terms and/or the Privacy Shield scheme. At the same time, the Applicant’s data will be stored on Google, Inc. and on the servers of Amazon Web Services, which will act as processors and which are in compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation, and AniPlus has a written agreement with each of them.

3.6. International Data Transfers

When choosing service providers, AniPlus may transfer users’ data outside the borders of the European Economic Area. In such cases, AniPlus will ensure before sending the data that such service providers are in compliance with the minimum security standards established by the European Commission and that they always process the data in accordance with AniPlus’s instructions. AniPlus may have a contractual relationship with them under which the service providers agree to comply with AniPlus’s instructions and to put in place the necessary security measures to protect Users’ data.

3.7. Retention Periods

Users’ data will be retained during the performance and maintenance of the contractual relationship; i.e. for as long as they are AniPlus Users or until they exercise their right to restrict the processing of their data.

Once a User has cancelled his or her registration with the Platform, AniPlus will keep his or her data for the time established in the tax, health, criminal and any other legislation that may apply, for the purpose of filing and defending any actions to which AniPlus may be a party. AniPlus will in any event block Users’ data so that it can only be consulted if an action has to be filed or defended in connection with it.

Specifically but without excluding any other legislation that may apply, the data will be retained following termination by the User as provided in the table in Annex II.

Regarding anonymous information, AniPlus will apply everything set forth in Recital 26 of the GDPR, according to which “The principles of data protection should therefore not apply to anonymous information, namely information which does not relate to an identified or identifiable natural person or to personal data rendered anonymous in such a manner that the data subject is not or no longer identifiable. This Regulation does not therefore concern the processing of such anonymous information, including for statistical or research purposes.”

3.8. Profiling and decision making

AniPlus does not adopt any decision that could affect User significantly based solely on automated processing of User's data (for example, reordering from the stores where Users have ordered in the past). The only decision-making processes of AniPlus are conducted by applying human intervention.

When using the application, AniPlus classifies Users based on the information provided by them about their usage of the application to adapt it to their needs and to improve it. The classification is conducted by solely using first party data. AniPlus use information that Users provide AniPlus, such as their historical orders and popularity among new users to suggest similar stores that could be of Users' interest.
