Legal Basis on Which Toypins Collects Your Personal Information

Toypins collects and processes your Information based on different legal grounds, depending on the nature of the Information being provided and the type of processing involved, as follows:

  • Performance of an Agreement. Some of the Information processed by Toypins is performed on the basis that it is necessary for the performance of our agreement with you or in order to take steps at the request of the user prior to entering such an agreement.
  • Legitimate Interest. A second ground relied upon by Toypins for other types of processing of your Personal Information is that it is necessary for the purposes of legitimate interests pursued by Toypins. Such legitimate interests will include where Toypins sends you marketing about our products and services, where we believe you have a reasonable expectation that we will perform a particular type of processing on your behalf, or where such processing is strictly necessary for fraud detection and prevention. Toypins will only rely on such a ground where an assessment has been performed balancing the interests and rights involved and the necessity of the processing in order to provide our services, products, and features to you.
  • A Legal Obligation. A third ground relied upon for certain types of processing is that it is necessary in order to allow Toypins to comply with a legal obligation.
  • Consent. Finally, Toypins relies on your consent in certain situations to process your Personal Data, such as marketing communications.
  • Sharing Your Information. We share your Information with third parties in the following circumstances or as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy:
  • Business Partners, Affiliates, Advisors, and Transfer Participants. We may share your information with our partners, subsidiaries, affiliates, professional advisors (such as financial, insurance, legal accounting, or otherwise), or any other company, to fulfill obligations in our provision of the Services. Toypins does not control how a business partner may use your Personal Information. Our business partners are responsible for managing the use of Personal information collected in these circumstances.
  • Service Providers. Toypins will share your Information with companies that provide a service to Toypins, such as database maintenance, identity verification, fraud monitoring, payment processing, storage, hosting, etc.
  • Third Parties. If you enable features or functionality that connect the Service to a third-party service, then we may disclose Your Information to such Third Parties and do not control a Third Party’s use of Your Information.
  • Other Users. We may share Your Information with other users, including to sellers, when you make a purchase on the Service or to the broader user base when You upload Information publicly. We do not control how other users will utilize Your Information.
  • With Your Consent. We will share Your Information to those listed herein with Your consent and as described in such consent.

Your photos, posts, and other content you provide to our Services are meant for public consumption. We may display this content through our Services and further distribute it to a broader audience through third-party sites and services. Others can collect and use that information once displayed on publicly viewable web pages. We cannot control who reads your postings or what other users may do with the information that you voluntarily post, so it is essential that you do not put any sensitive, confidential, or any other information you do not wish to be shared in your posts. Once you have posted information publicly, while you will still be able to edit and delete it on the Services, you will not be able to edit or delete such information cached, collected, and stored elsewhere by others.
  • Authorities. We will share Your information with law enforcement, government authorities, or other parties as, and if, required by law or in good faith that the action is necessary to comply with legal obligations, protect individuals (including Your) rights and safety, or to protect, investigate, and deter fraudulent, harmful, unauthorized, unethical, or illegal activity.

If you make any comments on a blog or forum associated with Toypins or on the Toypins Service, you should be aware that you have no reasonable expectation of privacy and that any Personal Data you submit there can be read, collected, or used by other users of these forums, or the Services and could be used to send you unsolicited messages. We are not responsible for the personally identifiable information you choose to submit in these blogs and forums or on the Services.

International Data Transfers

We are headquartered in the United States and may share Personal Data with service providers and other recipients in the United States and worldwide, including jurisdictions where privacy laws applicable to those recipients may not be as protective as those in your jurisdiction.

Security

Toypins employs organizational, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your Personal Data from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Depending on the circumstances, our safeguards to protect Personal Data in electronic and physical records include facilities access restrictions, system access controls, firewalls, data encryption, and payment processing security. However, remember that there is no Internet, email, or other electronic transmission that is ever fully secure or error-free, so you should take special care in deciding what information you send to us in this way. Your information may be stored with third-party cloud service infrastructure providers.

We reserve the right to verify your identity by any means acceptable to Us to process your requests to exercise your information, access, or deletion rights.
