2. Information we have about you

Personal information is the term we use to describe information which we collect and which identifies you (such as your name) or could indirectly identify you (such as an IP address or other online identifier).

We have personal information about you that you have given us; personal information about you that we collect from your device and personal information about you that we obtain from other sources. In this section, we explain what personal information we have about you.

A. Information you give to us (e.g. on contact forms, questionnaires or when setting up accounts)

  • Contact details - such as your name, address, email address, and phone number.
  • Account details - such as email and password.
  • Payment details - last 4 digits of payment card.
  • Responses to health assessment - dietary and exercise details, health information, name, ethnicity, sex, age, and DOB.

If you ask us to delete your contact details or account details, we may no longer be able to provide our services to you.

  • Your race or ethnic origin
  • Your date of birth
  • Your physical or mental health or condition(s)
  • Information relating to your physical or physiological behaviour

We will only collect these types of special categories of information with your explicit consent. Please remember that if you choose to withdraw your consent to our processing of these categories of information, we may be unable to provide our services to you.

The nature of what we do at OptimallyMe means that if you opt to use our services through a business-to-business customer of ours - we may receive personal information about you from our business customers, suppliers and subcontractors (for example, doctors, laboratories and nutritionists).

D. Information we receive from sources other than those in C. above

  • Advertising networks and information providers - we work closely with advertising networks, analytics and search information providers and we sometimes receive information about you from them.
  • Information from other websites and services we operate and provide - where this happens, we will let you know about sharing the information internally or combining it with information from the Website.

  • If you are a child and we learn that we have inadvertently obtained personal information from you from our websites, then we will delete that information as soon as possible.

Please contact us at: support@optimallyme.com if you are aware that we may have inadvertently collected personal information from a child.

3. How do we use your personal information?

We use your personal information for different purposes, but in all cases, we must have a legal basis for doing so. When we use your "special categories of personal data" we need an additional legal basis.

These are the legal bases for which we use your information:

  • Consent - you have given clear consent to us to process your personal information for a specific purpose.
  • Our contract - processing your personal information is necessary for a contract you have with us (for example, to fulfil an order which you place with us, or to comply with the terms of use of our Website which you accept by browsing), or because we have asked you to take specific steps before entering into that contract.
  • Legitimate interests - processing your personal information is necessary for our legitimate interests or those of a third party, provided those interests are not outweighed by your rights and interests or fundamental rights and freedoms which require protection of the personal information. You can ask us for information on this balancing test by using the contact details in this policy.

  • our service providers and sub-contractors, including but not limited to payment processors, suppliers of technical and support services, cloud service providers, auditors, actuaries, lawyers, tax advisers and logistics providers;
  • companies that assist us in our marketing, advertising and promotional activities;
  • analytics and search engine providers that assist us in the improvement and optimisation of our Website; and
  • any third parties that you have agreed that we may share your personal information with for marketing purposes.

If we share your personal information with third parties, they will only legally be able to use it for the purpose of providing services to us. We make sure that third parties we share personal information with follow equivalent privacy and security procedures to our own to protect your information.

We may anonymise and aggregate your data to create health reports and statistics. We may also share anonymised and aggregated data with third parties for several purposes including but not limited to marketing and academic research. None of these anonymised, aggregated reports or statistics will enable you to be personally identified.

Finally, we may also disclose your personal information to third parties in certain exceptional circumstances as follows:

  • where it is in our legitimate interests to do so to run, grow and develop our business:
    • if we sell or buy any business or assets, we may disclose your personal information to the seller or buyer of that business or those assets; or
    • if OptimallyMe or most of our assets are acquired by a third party, in which case personal information held by OptimallyMe will be one of the transferred assets;
  • if we are required by any applicable law or law enforcement organisation to do so;
  • in order to enforce or apply our terms and conditions or any other agreement or to respond to any claims, to protect our rights or the rights of a third party, to protect the safety of any person or to prevent any illegal activity; or
  • to protect the rights, property, or safety of OptimallyMe, our customers or other persons. This may include exchanging information with other organisations for the purposes of fraud protection and credit risk reduction.

Except for what is written in this policy, we will never share any of your personal information with any third party without notifying you and/or getting your consent. If you do consent and later change your mind, you can remove consent and therefore our permission to use this information. See section 6 below for your rights to withdraw consent.

5. How long do we store your information for

We keep your personal information for no longer than necessary for the purposes for which the personal information is processed. The length of time for which we retain personal information depends on the purposes for which we collect and use it and/or as required to comply with applicable laws and to establish, exercise or defend our legal rights. As soon as there is no longer any need for us to hold your personal information, we will delete it or, in some cases, anonymise it so you can no longer be identified from it.

7. Transfers of information

All EEA countries (the EU, Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein) provide an adequate level of data protection allowing the free transfer of personal information between the UK and any of those countries.

We process the personal information we collect at our offices in London, but we may transfer your personal information outside the UK or the EEA to our third-party providers listed immediately below:

  • Infrastructure: Amazon Web Services,Shopify, CloudFront Content Delivery Network, CloudWatch Monitoring, CloudTrail Audit & Security, DecisionRules
  • Surveys:Typeform
  • Analytics: Google Analytics
  • Communications: Klaviyo, Feefo Reviews
  • Fulfilment: Shipstation
  • Payments: Stripe (including United States)

If we transfer any personal information about you to any such non-UK and non-EEA third-party providers, we will take appropriate measures to ensure that the recipient protects your personal information adequately in accordance with this privacy policy. These measures may include the following:

  • ensuring that there is an adequacy decision by the UK Government in the case of transfers out of the UK, or by the European Commission in the case of transfers out of the EEA, which means that the recipient country is deemed to provide adequate protection for such personal data; or
  • that we have in place standard model contractual arrangements with the recipient which have been approved by the European Commission (or the UK Government for transfers out of the UK in due course). These model contractual clauses include certain safeguards to protect personal data.

Further details on the steps we take to protect your personal information in these cases are available from us on request by contacting our Data Protection Officer using the details in section 1 of this privacy policy.

At OptimallyMe, we have physical, electronic and managerial procedures in place to protect and secure the information we collect. We are committed to protecting personal information from loss, misuse, disclosure, alteration, unauthorised access and destruction and we take all reasonable precautions to safeguard the confidentiality of personal information. This includes appropriate entry controls to our premises, multi-factor authentication for all accounts relating to production data

If we do ever encounter any online data breaches, we commit to taking prompt action to resolve the situation to protect your information.

We use Shopify Payment, Stripe and Paypal for payment transactions and so do not hold payment or payment card data
(except for the last 4 digits).
