1. What data we collect
We collect the following categories of personal data:
- Account data: name, email address, job title, and organisation name provided at registration.

- Product submission data: product information, dimensions, compliance details, and other data submitted through the platform by suppliers.
- Usage data: pages visited, features used, timestamps, IP addresses, and browser information collected automatically.
- Billing data: payment and subscription information processed by Stripe. We do not store full card details.
- Communications data: emails and messages you send to us.
2. How we use your data
We process your personal data on the following legal bases:

- Legal obligation: to comply with applicable law, including tax and financial reporting obligations.
- Consent: to send marketing communications where you have opted in.
3. Data sharing and sub-processors
We share your data only with trusted third-party services necessary to operate the platform:

All sub-processors are required to process data in accordance with UK GDPR. We do not sell your personal data to any third party.
4. Data storage and transfers
Your data is stored on servers located within the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom. Where data is transferred outside the UK/EEA, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, including Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or equivalent mechanisms.
Each customer organisation's data is stored in a fully isolated database. No data is shared between separate customer organisations.
5. Data retention
We retain your personal data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service. Upon termination of your subscription we will retain data for 90 days before deletion, unless you request earlier deletion or we are required to retain it by law (e.g. for tax purposes, typically 6 years under UK law).
