Who we are

DVR Technology Developments is an electric motor systems manufacturer located in the USA, New Zealand and China. For all our services, the data controller responsible for the privacy of your data is DVR Technology Developments LLC.

Why we collect personal data

So that we may provide a service and fulfill any obligations to you (as a visitor, user, or our customer) it is necessary for us to collect and process personal data. There are a number of regulations in the USA and The EU General Data Protection Regulation (Regulation EU 2016/679), (GDPR) sets out in law a number of different reasons why a company may collect and process your personal data. We use the following lawful basis for processing your personal information:

Consent

We may process your information in situations where we have gained your explicit consent. For example, when you tick a box to receive our email newsletter.

Generally, we do not rely on consent as a legal basis and you have the right to withdraw your consent to marketing at any time by contacting us using the contact details at the end of this policy.

Contractual obligations

We process personal data routinely to comply with contractual obligations we are about to enter into or have entered into with you. For example, we need to collect your delivery address details and pass to our couriers in order to deliver your purchase to you.

Legitimate interest

We require your data to pursue our legitimate interests in a way which might reasonably be expected and which does not impact your interests, freedoms and fundamental rights. For example, we can use your order history to send you personalized offers and your address details to send you direct marketing information by mail. We can also combine the shopping history of many customers to identify trends to better understand their needs.

Legal compliance

In certain situations, the law requires us to collect and process your data to comply with our legal or regulatory obligation. For example, we can pass details of fraudulent transactions or other criminal activity affecting our business to law enforcement.

Information we may collect about you

Personal data means any information which relates to an individual and can be used for the purposes of identification, either directly or indirectly, typically through the use of an identifier. It does not include data where the identity has been removed.

We have grouped the different kinds of personal information we may collect, use, share or otherwise process about you below:

Data classification

Types of information

Identity Data

Data that can be used to identify you

Title, first name, last name, username or social identifier, date of birth, and gender.

In certain situations, we may also request you provide personal identification documents.

Contact Data

Data that can be used to contact you

Billing address, delivery address, email address, and telephone numbers.

Financial Data

Data relating to your finances

Bank account and payment card details.

Username and password, purchases or orders made by you, your interests, preferences, comments, reviews, social or marketplace identifier, feedback, and survey responses.

Usage Data

Information about how you use our website, products and services including details of your visit and which site you came from to ours, the web pages viewed during your visit, any search terms you entered, and the advertisements you clicked on. Please see our Cookie policy.

Marketing and Communications Data

Data that specifies your marketing preferences and/or any communications you have with us

Your marketing preferences such as what information you would like to receive from us and by what method (by email, by mail, etc.).

This includes general communications data such as us making a note of conversations we have had with you in person and/or communications you sent to us.

This enables us to manage our relationship with you effectively and ensures you only receive communications from us that are relevant and timely.

Aggregated Data

We may also collect, use, and share some Aggregated Data about our customers’ behavior patterns and browsing actions. This data may be derived from your personal information, but it does not identify you as an individual so is not considered personal data in law. For example, we may aggregate Usage Data to calculate the number of users visiting a specific website location. Should we combine Aggregated Data with your personal data so that it can identify you as an individual then we treat the combined data as personal data and subject to the provisions of this privacy policy.

Special Category (Sensitive) and Criminal Offence Data

We do not collect any Special Category Data or Sensitive Personal Data about you (such as your race or ethnicity, religious or philosophical beliefs, sex life, sexual orientation, political opinions, trade union membership, information about your health, and genetic and biometric data). Nor do we collect any Criminal Offence Data about criminal convictions and offenses.

If you fail to provide personal information

Where we need to collect personal information, either by law or under the terms of a contract we have with you, and you fail to provide the information upon request, we may not be able to fulfill the contract we have or are trying to enter into with you. For example, to deliver an order to you. This may lead to the cancellation of the contract between us. However, if this is the case, we will notify you accordingly.

How we collect your data

We collect different information about you in a number of ways:

Information you give us

When you create an account, make a purchase, sign up to our newsletter, register for an event, request marketing materials, or give us feedback, we will store the personal information you give us such as your name, email address, postal address, telephone number and card details (encrypted in the form of an authorization token). We will also keep a record of your purchases and any communications you have with us.

Marketing communications

We aim to communicate with you about the products and services we provide in a way that you find relevant, timely, respectful, and never excessive. To do this we use data we have collected and stored about you as a result of our contractual obligations in conjunction with any contact preferences you have told us about.

We only send marketing-based communications by email where you have given us explicit consent; for example, by ticking the box to opt-in during registration or guest checkout on our website. We use legitimate interest as the legal basis for communications by mail. In both instances, you have the right to opt-out of receiving these at any time either by contacting us or by updating your direct marketing preferences, if available.

As part of our service to you, we may contact you by email or telephone to provide essential information related to your purchase or visit.

Online advertising

To keep you up to date with our brand and help you see and find products we believe are relevant to you, we use our legitimate interests to engage in online advertising.

We target banners and adverts to you when you are on other websites and apps using a variety of digital marketing networks and ad exchanges. These adverts use a number of different technologies such as pixels, ad tags, cookies, and mobile identifiers as well as specific services offered by some sites and social networks such as Facebook’s Custom Audience service.

The banners and ads you see will be based on information we hold about you and/or your previous use of the DVR Technology Developments / Striatech website such as your search history and the products you have looked at or added to your basket.

For more information on cookies, including how you can control what cookies are used, please see our Cookie policy.

How is my personal data shared?

We do not and will not sell any of your personal data to any third party for any purpose.

However, we sometimes share your personal data with trusted third parties as an essential part of providing our services to you as set out in this statement.

Information we share with third parties

We share information with trusted third parties according to the following rules:

• We provide only the information they need
• They may only use your data for the exact purpose we specify
• We work closely with them to ensure your privacy is respected and protected
• If we stop using their services, any of your data held by them will either be deleted or rendered anonymous

Example third party companies we work with

Where necessary we share your data with the following example categories of companies:

• Companies that enable us to get your purchases to you, such as payment service providers, warehouses, order packers, drop-ship providers, and delivery companies.
• Professional service providers, such as marketing agencies, advertising partners, IT companies, and website hosts who help us run our business.
• Credit reference agencies, law enforcement, and fraud prevention agencies, so we can protect against fraud.
• Companies approved by you, such as social media sites (if you choose to link your accounts to us) or payment providers such as Amazon Pay, V12 Finance, and PayPal where you choose to use their payment service.
• Advertising platforms such as Google and Facebook to show you products that might be of interest to you whilst browsing the internet. Please see our Cookie policy.

• Data insight companies to ensure your details are up-to-date and accurate.
• Professional advisors such as our auditors, regulators, external legal and financial advisors.

Sharing your data with third parties for their own purposes

In very specific circumstances we will share your information with third parties for their own purposes.

• Fraud management companies may use the information we provide them for analysis and risk profiling. We may also be required to share data about individuals with law enforcement bodies.
• Where required by law we may disclose your personal data to the police or other enforcement, regulatory or Government body, in your country of origin or elsewhere, upon a valid request to do so. Individual requests are assessed on a case-by-case basis.
• Where applicable we may opt your product purchase into a relevant warranty scheme in order to ensure your tools and machines are protected. In these instances, we use our legitimate interests as a legal basis and both the security and privacy of your personal data is our utmost priority. This does not include permission to send marketing communications.

To help personalize your experience on our website we currently use the following companies who in specific scenarios will process your personal data as part of their contract with us:

You have the right to object to any of this processing at any time. If you wish to do this, please using the details at the end of this policy.

How we protect your personal data

We understand how important data security is to you and therefore take all appropriate steps to safeguard the collection, transmission, and storage of the data we collect.

All areas of our website are protected with secure connections over “https” technology. Access to your personal data is password protected and we use secure server technology that implements Transport Layer Security (TLS) encryption to protect your sensitive data.

 

We also generate authorization tokens when you place an order with us using a credit or debit card. Only we can use the authorization token generated and since we only charge your card on dispatch, it is necessary for instances where part shipment of items is required e.g., to fulfill backorders. We never store your card details or security code in plain text.

Our systems are monitored for possible vulnerabilities and attacks, and we are continually looking to identify ways to further strengthen security in line with new technological advances and best practices.

Where your personal data may be processed

We store your data on secure servers in the USA. However, sometimes we will need to share your personal data with third parties and suppliers internationally; for example, when enquiring about a warranty or repair outside of the USA, we’ll need to transfer your personal data between countries to enable us to supply the goods or services you’ve requested. If we do this, our contracts stipulate the standards they must follow at all times, and we have procedures in place to ensure your data receives the same protection as if it were being processed inside the USA or EU.

International Orders

By using our services or providing your personal data to us, you expressly consent to the processing of your personal data by us or on our behalf within the USA. You have the right to ask us not to process your data in certain ways, and if you do so, we will respect your wishes.

Any transfer of your personal data will follow applicable laws and we will treat the information under the guiding principles of this Privacy Policy.

Your rights over your personal data

If you choose to share personal data with DVR Technology Developments you have rights relating to your personal information. You have the right to request:

• Information about the collection and use of your personal data (as outlined in this Privacy Policy or by ).
• Access to the personal data we hold about you, free of charge, in most cases.
• The correction of inaccurate, out of date, or incomplete personal data held about you. In most cases, you can access your own information directly and update yourself. But you can also contact us to do this.
• Your personal information to be erased, not processed, or collected where there is no good reason for us to continue processing it. Otherwise known as `the right to be forgotten`.
• We stop using your personal data for direct marketing (either through select or all channels).
• We stop any content-based processing of your personal data after you have withdrawn your consent.
• We transfer or port elements of your data either to you or another service provider.
• A review of any decision made based solely on automatic processing of your data.
• Complain to the data protection regulator (see contacting the regulator).

If we choose not to action your request, we will explain to you our reasons for refusal.

Checking your identity

We may need to request specific information from you as a security measure. This is to confirm your identity and prevent personal information from being disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it.

Time limit to respond

We aim to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it may take us longer if your particular request is complex or you have made a number of requests.

Updating your direct marketing preferences

There are several ways you can stop direct marketing communications from us:

• Click the unsubscribe or edit preferences link in any email
• If you have an account, sign in and visit the My Account area
• With a direct request, by email, telephone, or in-store.

When editing your preferences, you will have the option to select the types of marketing you receive and by what means. You can of course opt to unsubscribe from all direct marketing communications. Please note there may be a small delay in updating your preferences until our systems fully update.

Deleting information and deactivation of accounts

You may request that your account be deleted by email, telephone, or in-person. Once deleted, your data, including previous order history, cannot be reinstated.

Retention of information

When we collect or process your personal information, we will only keep it for as long as it is necessary to provide our services to you and to comply with our legal and contractual obligations.

At the end of that retention period, your data will be either deleted or anonymized. In the latter scenario, the data will be used in a non-identifiable way for statistical and business planning purposes.

Example retention periods

For purposes such as tax, accounting, and warranty we will keep a record of all orders placed with us for the legally required duration of seven years.

Links to other websites

Our website may contain links to other websites of interest. However, once you have used these links to leave our site, you should note that we do not have any control over that other website. Therefore, we cannot be responsible for the protection and privacy of any information which you provide whilst visiting such sites and such sites are not governed by this Privacy Policy. You should exercise caution and look at the privacy statement applicable to the website in question.

Contacting the regulator

If you wish to make a complaint about the way we handle your personal data, or you are unhappy with our response to any requests you have made to us regarding the use of your personal data, you may contact the relevant data protection regulators in your country of residence.
