Information on the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)

If you are from the European Economic Area (EEA), we may collect and use data from you, In this section of our Privacy Policy we explain exactly how and why this data is collected, and how we protect this data from duplication or misuse.

What is the GDPR?

GDPR is an EU-wide privacy and data protection law that regulates how the data of EU citizens is protected by companies. Companies are protected and EU residents' control over their personal data is strengthened.

The GDPR is relevant to any business operating globally, not just EU-based companies and EU residents. Our customers' data is important, regardless of where it is located, and that's why we have Therefore, we have implemented GDPR controls as a basic standard for all our operations worldwide.

What is personal data?

Any data that relates to an identifiable or identified individual. The GDPR covers a wide range of information that can be used alone or in combination with other information to identify an individual. Personal data goes beyond a person's name or email address. Some examples include financial information, political opinions, genetic data, biometric data, IP addresses, physical addresses, sexual orientation and ethnicity.

The data protection principles contain requirements such as:

Personal data collected must be processed in a fair, lawful and transparent manner and only used in a way that an individual would reasonably expect.

Personal data should only be collected for a specific purpose and only used for that purpose. When collecting personal data, organizations must specify why they need it.

Personal data should not be kept for longer than is necessary to fulfill the purpose.

Individuals covered by the General Data Protection Regulation have the right to access their own personal data. They can also request a They can also request a copy of their data and request that their data be updated, deleted, restricted or transferred to another organization.
Why is GDPR important?

The GDPR places some new requirements on organizations in how they handle the personal data they collect and process. It also raises the stakes for compliance by increasing enforcement and higher fines for non-compliance. Those facts aside, it's simply the right thing to do. At Maria's-Jewels, we firmly believe that.
At Maria's-Jewels, we firmly believe that protecting your data is very important and we have already implemented solid security and privacy practices that go above and beyond the requirements of this new regulation.

In this case, we will dispose of all data in accordance with our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy, but we will not retain it for longer than 60 days.

We recognize that if you work with EU customers, you need to give them the ability to access, update, retrieve and delete personal data. We've got you! We've been self-service from the start and have always given you access to your data and your customers' data. Our customer support team is here to answer any questions you may have about working with the API.
