We strive to provide you with choices regarding certain personal data uses, particularly around marketing and advertising.:

Promotional offers from us
We may use your identity, contact, technical, usage, and profile data to form a view of what we think you may want or need or what may interest you. This is how we decide which products, services and offers may be relevant for you (we call this marketing).

You will receive marketing communications if you have requested information from us, purchased services from us, or provided us with details when you entered a competition or registered for a promotion. In each case, you are receiving that marketing.

Third-party marketing
We will get your express opt-in consent before we share your personal data with any third party for marketing purposes.

Opting out
You can ask us or third parties to stop sending you marketing messages at any time by following the opt-out links on any marketing message sent to you or by contacting us at any time.

Cookies
You can set your browser to refuse all or some browser cookies or to alert you when websites set or access cookies. If you disable or refuse cookies, please note that some parts of this website may become inaccessible or not function properly.

Change of purpose
We will only use your personal data for the purposes for which we collected it unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason. That reason must be compatible with the original purpose. If you wish to get an explanation as to how the processing for the new purpose is compatible with the original purpose, please contact us.

If we need to use your personal data for an unrelated purpose, we will notify you and explain the legal basis for doing so.

Please note that we may process your personal data without your knowledge or consent in compliance with the above rules where this is required or permitted by law.

4. Who we share your information with and why

FIVE TECH works as an agent for UNUMPLUS LIMITED to deliver the OPPO Shop. We share web activity data with UNUMPLUS LIMITED to enhance the user journey on the OPPO Shop. In addition to web activities, we all also share personal data such as (but not limited to) name, email, address, phone, gender, and transactional information (excluding banking information) to UNUMPLUS LIMITED to support services (such as warranty, marketing, user experience enhancement, customer service)

In addition, FIVE TECH works with several trusted agencies and businesses to provide you with the high-quality goods and services you expect from us, such as delivery companies, credit reference agencies, fraud prevention agencies, and market research companies, amongst others.  Some examples of the categories of third parties with whom we share your data are:

Distribution Partners 

FIVE TECH works with a number of trusted partners who manage warehousing / despatch processes and services on our behalf. All partners are subject to thorough security checks and will only hold the minimum amount of personal information needed in order to fulfil the orders you place or provide a service on our behalf. 

Delivery Partners

In order for you to receive your goods, FIVE TECH works with a number of delivery partners. Again, we only pass limited information to them in order to ensure delivery of your items.

IT Companies

FIVE TECH works with businesses who support our website and other business systems.

Marketing Companies

We work with marketing companies who help us manage our electronic communications with you such as sending News letter emails or orders related emails on our behalf.

Payment processing

FIVE TECH works with trusted third party payment processing providers in order to securely take and manage payments.

Fraud prevention services

Before we provide services, goods or financing to you, we will check to prevent fraud and verify your identity. We may require you to provide us with proof of address, etc. These checks require us to process personal data about you. The personal data you have provided, we have collected from you, or received from third parties will be used to prevent fraud and money laundering and verify your identity. Details of the personal information that will be processed include, for example, name, address, date of birth, contact details, financial information, employment details, and device identifiers, including IP address and vehicle details. We and fraud prevention agencies may also enable law enforcement agencies to access and use your personal data to detect, investigate and prevent crime. We process your personal data because we have a legitimate interest in preventing fraud and verifying identity to protect our business and comply with laws that apply to us. Such processing is also a contractual requirement of the services or financing you have requested. We process your personal data because it is necessary in the public interest or in exercising official authority to prevent fraud and money laundering and to verify identity to protect ourselves and comply with laws that apply to us. Fraud prevention agencies can hold your personal data for different periods of time, and if you are considered to pose a fraud or money laundering risk, your data can be held for up to six years. Consequences of processing if we, or a fraud prevention agency, determine that you pose a fraud, we may refuse to provide the services or financing you have requested, or to employ you, or we may stop providing existing services to you. If you have any questions about this, please contact us using the details above.  Your personal data is protected by legal rights, which include your rights to object to our processing of your personal data, request that your personal data be erased or corrected, and request access to your personal data.  For more information or to exercise your data protection rights, please contact us using the contact details above.

We require all third parties to respect the security of your personal data and treat it in accordance with the law. We do not allow our third-party service providers to use your personal data for their own purposes and only permit them to process it for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions.

5. International transfers

Many of our external third parties are based outside the European Economic Area (EEA) so their processing of your personal data will involve a transfer of data outside the EEA.

Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the EEA, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented:

• We will only transfer your personal data to countries that the European Commission has deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data. For further details, see European Commission: Adequacy of the protection of personal data in non-EU countries.
• Where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts approved by the European Commission, which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe. For further details, see European Commission: Model contracts for transferring personal data to third countries.

Please contact us if you want further information on the specific mechanism used by us when transferring your personal data out of the EEA.

6. Keeping in touch with you

We want to keep you up to date with information about new ranges, special offers and improvements to our website.

They will only process your personal data on our instructions and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.

We have implemented procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so.

8. How long we keep your information

If we collect your personal information, the length of time we retain it is determined by several factors, including the purpose for which we use that information and our obligations under other laws.

We may need your personal information to establish, bring or defend legal claims. For this purpose, we will always retain your personal information for 7 years after the date it is no longer needed by us for any of the purposes listed under How we use your information above. The only exceptions to this are the following:

• The law requires us to hold your personal information for a longer period or delete it sooner.
• You exercise your right to have the information erased (where it applies), and we do not need to hold it for any of the reasons permitted or required under the law, such as for Accounts and Invoice legal bindings.
• We bring or defend a legal claim or other proceedings during the period we retain your personal information, in which case we will retain your personal information until those proceedings have concluded and no further appeals are possible or
