Every electronic marketing message will provide an unsubscribe method.

You can stop marketing communications by:

12. International Data Transfers

OÜ MEGASCOOTZ trading as MegaScootz is registered in Estonia and sells to customers in the United Kingdom. Personal information may therefore be processed in the United Kingdom, Estonia, other countries within the European Economic Area and countries where our authorised service providers operate.

Where personal information is transferred internationally, we use a lawful transfer mechanism where required. This may include:

  • An adequacy decision
  • Standard Contractual Clauses
  • A United Kingdom international data-transfer agreement or approved addendum
  • Another legally recognised safeguard or exception

You may contact us to request information about the safeguards relevant to your personal information.

13. How Long We Keep Personal Information

We retain personal information only for as long as it is reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected and to meet applicable legal obligations.

Our usual retention periods include:

  • Orders, payments and accounting records: Normally up to seven years
  • Returns, refunds, complaints and warranty records: Generally up to six years after the matter is completed, you can checkout our return and refund policy page
  • Customer-support communications: For as long as necessary to resolve the request and retain an appropriate record
  • Account information: While the account remains active and afterwards where necessary for security, legal obligations or claims
  • Marketing information: Until you unsubscribe, withdraw consent or the information is no longer required
  • Suppression records: As long as necessary to respect an unsubscribe request
  • Cookie and analytics information: According to the duration shown in our cookie controls or the relevant provider’s settings
  • Security information: For as long as reasonably necessary to investigate incidents and protect the website

We may retain information for longer where required by law, a court order, an active dispute or a regulatory investigation.

When information is no longer required, we will delete it, anonymise it or securely restrict its use.

14. Security

We use reasonable technical and organisational safeguards designed to protect personal information from:

  • Unauthorised access
  • Unlawful use
  • Accidental loss
  • Disclosure
  • Alteration
  • Destruction

These measures may include access restrictions, encryption where appropriate, secure payment processing, account controls, backups, monitoring and service-provider assessments.

No online transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Please do not send card details, passwords or other highly sensitive information through ordinary email.

If you believe your account or personal information has been compromised, contact us immediately.

15. Your Data-Protection Rights

Depending on the applicable law and circumstances, you may have the right to:

  • Be informed about how your information is used
  • Request access to your personal information
  • Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information
  • Request deletion of your information
  • Request restriction of processing
  • Object to certain processing
  • Receive certain information in a portable format
  • Withdraw consent
  • Object to direct marketing
  • Request information about international-transfer safeguards
  • Challenge certain decisions made solely through automated processing

These rights are not absolute. A legal exemption may apply, or we may need to retain certain information to comply with legal obligations or establish, exercise or defend legal claims.

16. Exercising Your Rights

To exercise a data-protection right, contact [email protected].

Please explain your request clearly. We may ask for reasonable information to verify your identity and protect your information from unauthorised access.

We normally respond within one month or within another period required by applicable law. Where legally permitted, additional time may be required for a complex request. If so, we will inform you.

We will not charge for an ordinary request. A reasonable fee may be charged, or a request may be refused, where legally permitted because it is manifestly unfounded or excessive.

17. Automated Decisions and Fraud Checks

Payment and fraud-prevention providers may use automated systems to assess transactions, detect fraud or decide whether to authorise a payment.

Their own privacy policies explain how they use personal information and how you may challenge their decisions.

Megascootz does not normally make decisions based solely on automated processing that produce legal or similarly significant effects without appropriate safeguards.

18. Children’s Information

Our website is intended for people purchasing or researching Megascootz products and is not designed to collect personal information directly from children.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children without appropriate involvement from a parent or guardian.

If you believe a child has supplied personal information to us improperly, contact us so that we can investigate and take appropriate action.

19. Third-Party Websites

Our website may contain links to manufacturers, payment providers, couriers, social networks or other third-party websites.

Third parties operate under their own privacy policies. We are not responsible for how an independent third-party website collects or uses information after you leave our website.

A link does not necessarily mean that Megascootz endorses every statement, product or service on the third-party website.

20. Complaints

If you have concerns about how we use your personal information, please contact us first so we can investigate:

Email: [email protected]
Phone: +44 7715 971109

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent data-protection supervisory authority in the country where you live, work or believe a data-protection infringement occurred.

21. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy when our practices, services, legal obligations or service providers change.

When we make changes, we will publish the revised policy on our website and update the “Last updated” date.
