We may disclose your personal information to the following categories of third parties:

‍
Suppliers that provide services to us which require the processing of your personal data (e.g. providers of payment processing services or customer relationship management software and services).

We make sure that we have appropriate data processing terms in place between usand the above third parties in order to be in compliance with applicable data protection laws.

1. Securing your data
   
   ‍Your data’s security is crucial to us and we take robust measures to protect your information from unauthorised access, use or disclosure. Still, it's worth noting that while we strive for maximum security, no digital platform can promise 100% invulnerability. But, know that we're always on our toes to protect you.
2. Retaining your data
   ‍
   ‍While most of the data we handle isn't directly personally identifiable and is kept indefinitely, any identifiable data – with the exception of user-provided content like videos and images which may or may not identify the user – is deleted once a user account is terminated, rendering linked usage data anonymous. We will only retain any personal data for a reasonable amount of time and/or as permitted or required by relevant laws. When a user account is terminated, all content provided by that user is removed from the app and will no longer be displayed to other users. A user can also choose to remove any of their content from the platform at any time, without terminating their account.When user-provided content is removed for any reason, we still may retain this content in order to train our recommendation algorithms for as long as it remains relevant. However, removed content will never be displayed on the platform.
3. Your data rights under GDPR
   
   ‍You've got rights, and we respect them. If you have a request to access, correct or delete your personal information, we will respond to it swiftly and in line with our legal obligations. These rights are limited in some situations. For example, if we have a legal requirement or a compelling legitimate ground we may continue to process your data even when you request its deletion.
   
   The vast majority of the data we handle is not directly personally identifiable. Still, if you wish to opt out of data processing of personally identifiable data you can do so by deleting your user account. Any user-provided content that you have uploaded to the platform which may or may not be personally identifiable is exempt from this rule, as mentioned in the previous section. Still, you are of course within your rights to have this data completely deleted from our systems if that is what you wish and can do so by sending us an email on help@iloveit.com from the email address you have registered with, telling us you want to request a data erasure.
   
   If you ever feel that your data rights aren't being complied with, you can lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. In the UK, this is the Information Commissioner (the ICO). We sincerely hope it never comes to that, but it's essential you know your rights.
4. Policy updates and your information
   ‍
   ‍The digital world is ever-evolving, and so are regulations and our platform. If we tweak this policy, we'll make sure to keep you in the loop.
   
   Equally, it’s important you keep us updated on your own personal data, and please let us know if any of your information that we hold changes by updating your account information on the platform or by contacting us at help@iloveit.com
