What personal data we collect and why we collect it

Personal Information

We might collect from you personal information including your name, gender, age, address, email address, third party services login, telephone number, credit card information and order history.

The information collected is generally used to provide goods or services to you. We may also use any personal information you entrust to us to better understand our customers’ needs and to provide, deliver, source, administer and improve our products and services. This may include:

• The processing of payments, refunds or discounts
• Provide relevant email marketing offers and segmentation
• Market research
• Personalising your shopping experience where possible
• Maintaining a current database of customer information

You have the right to tell us that you do not want us to send information to you other than for the main purpose for which we have collected your personal information.

Contact forms

When you submit a contact form via the website, the data submitted is retained indefinitely for customer service purposes.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.

An anonymised string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

If you have an account and you log in to this site, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.

Links

Our website may contain links to other websites. This privacy policy applies solely to information collected by The Rain in Spain and may differ from the policies from other sites that you may link to from this site. We recommend that you read the privacy policy of any site that you link to from this site.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracing your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Who we share your data with

The Rain in Spain does not generally disclose personal information to third parties. In some circumstances, personal information may be disclosed to third parties who perform services together with us, on our behalf, for the purpose of providing you with goods and services. We do not sell or rent any personal information.

Third parties we may disclose personal information to include:

• Any related companies
• IT service providers, mail delivery services
• Professional advisors including accountants, auditors or lawyers
• Government agencies

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognise and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you may request access to the personal information we hold about you by contacting us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where we send your data

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

Additional information

How we protect your data

The security of your information is important to us. We have implemented security measures designed to protect your data when purchasing goods or services over the internet. When you place an order, our secure server uses SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) to connect to our website, which encrypts all the information sent from your PC.

A client’s credit card details are not stored anywhere on the Internet and the only company who has access to this data is the merchant’s bank.
