The fastest way
Every email we send has a Manage your membership link at the bottom. It opens a private page that shows all the data we hold about you: your name, email, phone, usual shop, your marketing choice and your coupon. On that page you can:
- change your usual shop
- switch the weekly deal emails on or off
- delete your membership and all your data, in one tap
No password and no waiting. The link is private to you, so do not forward the email to anyone.
What you can ask for
| You want to | What we do |
|---|---|
| See what we hold (access) | Send you a copy of all your personal data, what we use it for, who it goes to and how long we keep it. |
| Take it with you (portability) | Send your member data as a CSV file you can open in any spreadsheet. |
| Fix something (correction) | Correct your name, email, phone or shop. |
| Delete it (erasure) | Remove your membership and coupon from our database and Google Sheet, and confirm when it is done. |
| Pause how we use it (restriction) | Keep your data but stop using it, for example while we look into a complaint. |
| Object, or stop marketing | Stop the use you object to. Marketing stops straight away, always. |
| Withdraw your consent | Stop the weekly deal emails. Anything we sent before stays lawful. |
