What information is collected and how we can use it

• Contact information: We use your Email address to provide you with our newsletters, discount information, new product information and other campaign information.

 

How personal information can be used

You hereby consent that we may process and disclose personal information to our affiliated companies and Third-Party Service Providers (defined below) for the purposes stated in this Privacy Policy.

We may use your personal information for the following purposes:

• Providing you with our newsletters, discount information, new product information and other campaign information.

With whom we share your information

We do not sell any personal information to third parties.

We may disclose your personal information on occasion to third parties (as described below) to provide the products or services that you have requested.

Disclosure may be made to Third Party Service Providers and affiliated companies listed in this section below. In each case described in this section, you can be assured that Roborock will only share your personal information following your consent. Your consent to Roborock will engage sub-processors for the processing of your personal information. You should know that when Roborock shares your personal information with a Third-Party Service Provider under any circumstance described in this section, Roborock will contractually specify that the third party is subject to practices and obligations that comply with applicable local data protection laws. Roborock will contractually ensure compliance by any Third-Party Service Providers with the privacy standards that apply to them in your home jurisdiction.

Sharing with our group and third-party service providers

From time to time, in order to conduct business operations smoothly to provide you with the full capabilities of our products and services, we may disclose your personal information to Roborock affiliated companies (which involve  product sales, after-sales services, etc.), or third party service providers (our data storage facility, technical support). Such Third-Party Service Providers only process your personal information on Roborock’s behalf or for one or more of the purposes listed above.

Information not requiring consent

For the avoidance of doubt, Roborock may collect, use, or disclose your personal information without your consent to the extent it is allowed explicitly under local data protection laws.

Security safeguards

Roborock’s security measures

We are committed to ensuring that your personal information is secure. To prevent unauthorized access, disclosure or other similar risks, we have put in place reasonable physical, electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect on your mobile terminal and Roborock’s websites. We will use all reasonable efforts to safeguard your personal information.

All your personal information is stored on secure servers and protected in controlled facilities. We classify your data based on importance and sensitivity and ensure that your personal information has the highest security level. We make sure that our employees and Third Party Service Providers who access the information to help provide you with our products and services are subject to strict contractual confidentiality obligations that will cause them to be disciplined or terminated if they fail to meet their obligations. We have special access controls for cloud-based data storage as well. In summary, we regularly review our information collection, storage, and processing practices, including physical security measures, to guard against any unauthorized access and use.

We will take all practicable steps to safeguard your personal information. However, you should be aware that the use of the internet is not entirely secure, and for this reason we cannot guarantee the security or integrity of any personal information which is transferred from you or to you via the internet.

We will notify the data breach to the relevant supervisory authority, or under some circumstances, notify the personal information breach to the data subjects by complying with applicable laws, including your local data protection legislation.

What you can do

• You can safeguard your personal information by not disclosing your login password or account information to anybody unless you duly authorize such person.
• Roborock cannot be held responsible for lapses in security caused by third-party access to your personal information as a result of your failure to keep your personal information private. Notwithstanding the preceding, you must notify us immediately if there is any unauthorized use of your account or any other breach of security.
• Your assistance will help us protect the privacy of your personal information.

Retention policy

Personal information will be held for as long as it is necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected, or as required or permitted by applicable laws. We shall cease to retain personal information or remove the means by which the personal information can be associated with particular individuals, as soon as it is reasonable to assume that the purpose for which that personal information was collected is no longer being served by retention of the personal information. If further processing is for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes according to the applicable laws, the data can be further retained by Roborock even if the further processing is incompatible with original purposes.

You have control over your personal information

Roborock recognizes that privacy concerns differ from person to person. Therefore, we have provided some examples to describe the ways we can help you restrict collection, use, disclosure, or processing of your personal information and control your privacy settings.

Transfer of personal information outside of your jurisdiction

To the extent that we may need to transfer personal information outside of your jurisdiction, whether to our affiliated companies or Third-Party Service Providers, we shall do so in accordance with the applicable laws. In particular, we will ensure that all transfers will be in accordance with requirements under your applicable local data protection laws by putting in place appropriate safeguards.

Roborock uses its own operations and global cloud service provider facilities to process and back up personal information. At present, Roborock has owned or commissioned cloud service providers with data centers in Germany, and the United States. These overseas jurisdictions may or may not have in place data protection laws which are substantially similar to that in your home jurisdiction. You have understood that the risks under applicable data protection laws are different, and we may transfer to and store your personal information at our overseas facilities with your consent. However, this does not change any of our commitments to safeguard your personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. If you are a European Union user under the General Data Protection Regulation, your personal information will be stored in Germany’s Server.
