4. How we use your data

How we use your personal data will depend on which Services you use, how you use those Services and the choices with regard to the possibilities offered on our website. We use the data that we have about you to provide and personalize, including with the help of automated systems and inferences we make, our Services so that they can be more relevant and useful to you and others. However, we do not engage in profiling while you can at any time limit the extent to which we may personalize our Services for you by controlling the cookies we install on your browser.

We use the data (which can include your communications) to investigate, respond to and resolve complaints and Service issues (e.g., bugs).

4.7. Aggregate Insights

We use your data to produce and share aggregated insights that do not identify you.

5. How we share data

5.1. Others’ services

Subject to your settings, other services may look-up your data. When you opt to link your account with other services (e.g. with PayPal), personal data may become available to them.

5.2. Related services

We will share, where needed, your personal data with our affiliates or service providers to provide and develop our Services. We may combine information internally across the different Services covered by this Privacy Policy to help our Services be more relevant and useful to you. For example, sharing your address details with our delivery service provider is compulsory so that the goods you buy from us can be delivered to you.

5.3. Other services

We use others to help us provide our Services (e.g., maintenance, analysis, payments, fraud detection, marketing and development). They will have access to your information as reasonably necessary to perform these tasks on our behalf and are obligated not to disclose or use it for other purposes.

5.4. Legal Disclosures

It is possible that we will need to disclose information about you when required by law, subpoena, or other legal process or if we have a good faith belief that disclosure is reasonably necessary to (1) investigate, prevent, or take action regarding suspected or actual illegal activities or to assist government enforcement agencies; (2) enforce our agreements with you, (3) investigate and defend ourselves against any third-party claims or allegations or (4) protect the security or integrity of our Service. We attempt to notify users about legal demands for their personal data when appropriate in our judgment, unless prohibited by law or court order or when the request is an emergency. We may dispute such demands when we believe, in our discretion, that the requests are overbroad, vague or lack proper authority, but we do not promise to challenge every demand.

5.5. Change in ownership or sale

We can also share your personal data as part of a sale, merger or change in control, or in preparation for any of these events. Any other entity which buys us or part of our business will have the right to continue to use your data, but only in the manner set out in this Privacy Policy unless you agree otherwise.

6. Your rights and obligations

6.1. Data retention

We retain your personal data while your account is in existence or as needed to provide you Services. This includes data you or others provided to us and data generated or inferred from your use of our Services. Even if you only use our Services sporadically, we may retain your information and keep your account open until you decide to close it. In some cases we may choose to retain certain information in a depersonalized or aggregated form.

6.2. Rights to access and control your data

We provide several choices about the collection, use and sharing of your data, from deleting or correcting data you include in your account to advertising opt-outs and communication controls. We offer you settings to control and manage the personal data we have about you.

For personal data that we have about you:

• Delete Data: You can ask us to erase or delete all or some of your personal data (e.g., if it is no longer necessary to provide Services to you).

• Change or Correct Data: You can edit some of your personal data through your account. You can also ask us to change, update or fix your data in certain cases, particularly if it’s inaccurate.

• Object to, or Limit or Restrict, Use of Data: You can ask us to stop using all or some of your personal data (e.g., if we have no legal right to keep using it) or to limit our use of it (e.g., if your personal data is inaccurate or unlawfully held).

• Right to Access and/or Take Your Data: You can ask us for a copy of your personal data and can ask for a copy of personal data you provided in machine readable form.

Visitors can learn more about how to make these requests by getting in contact with us. Your requests will be considered in accordance with applicable laws.

6.3. Right to have your data deleted

If you request from us to delete all personal data of yours that we have in store, your personal data will generally stop being visible to others on our Services within 24 hours. We generally delete data within 30 days of reception of the relevant request, except as noted below.

We retain your personal data even after you have requested their deletion if reasonably necessary to comply with our legal obligations (including law enforcement requests), meet regulatory requirements, resolve disputes, maintain security, prevent fraud and abuse, enforce our User Agreement, or fulfill your request to “unsubscribe” from further messages from us. We will retain de-personalized information after your account has been closed.

Information you have shared with others (e.g., through direct communication via email) will remain visible after you request deletion of your data, and we do not control data that others may have copied out of our Services.

7. Other important information

7.1. Security

We implement security safeguards designed to protect your data, such as HTTPS. We regularly monitor our systems for possible vulnerabilities and attacks. However, we cannot warrant the security of any information that you send us. There is no guarantee that data may not be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed by breach of any of our physical, technical, or managerial safeguards.

7.2. Cross-border data transfers

We process data both inside and outside Greece and rely on legally-provided mechanisms to lawfully transfer data across borders. Countries where we process data may have laws which are different, and potentially not as protective, as the laws of your own country.

7.3. Lawful bases for processing

We will only collect and process personal data about you where we have lawful bases. Lawful bases include consent (where you have given consent), contract (where processing is necessary for the performance of a contract with you (e.g. to deliver the goods you have purchased)) and “legitimate interests”.

Where we rely on your consent to process personal data, you have the right to withdraw or decline your consent at any time and where we rely on legitimate interests, you have the right to object. If you have any questions about the lawful bases upon which we collect and use your personal data, please contact our Data Protection Officer here.

7.4. Direct marketing and do-not-track signals

We currently do not share personal data with third parties for their direct marketing purposes without your permission.

7.5. Contact information

If you have questions or complaints regarding this Policy, please first contact us online. You can also reach us by physical mail: Eleni Vonisakou – Foodie Corner, 23 Sarafi Street, Nea Makri, 19005, Greece. If contacting us does not resolve your complaint, you may raise your complaint with the Greek National Data Protection Authority. The complaint should include the name of our company, the alleged privacy violation, your contact information, and whether you’d like the particulars of your complaint shared with the company (i.e. us).
