We are Sleep 8 Intrinsic Limited, a company incorporated in the UK, reg. number 14029814. And we are subject to the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) under the general processing regime.

If you have any questions or suggestions concerning our privacy practices, please email us: hi@sleep8.eu.

What this Privacy Policy covers

We may need to change this policy from time to time to reflect changes in the law and/or privacy practices. When this happens, we will inform you updating this page.

How we collect data

  • We collect personal data from you directly or indirectly. For example, when you create an account on our website, make an order, sign up for a newsletter or send us an email, you provide your personal data directly to us. Other times, personal data is collected automatically as you use the website or open our newsletters.

    And in some instances, we can receive some information from the third parties, e.g. from a delivery service provider about the status of your order, from a payment service on whether your payment was successful or from DivideBuy on outcome of your credit application. For recruitment purposes we may collect your data from specialised job websites where your CV is posted.

    If you fail to provide personal data

    You are not obliged to provide your personal data to us. However, if we need personal data in order to enter and perform the contract with you and you do not provide this data, we may not be able to perform the contract we have or are trying to enter into with you. Should this be the case we will notify you at the time.

Who we share data with

  • We share your personal data in the following cases:

    • If it is necessary for providing you goods and services (e.g. delivery service providers, payment service providers),

    • If it is necessary to efficiently perform our business activities (we use hosting providers, outsourced accounting, HR and marketing services providers, as well as a number of SaaS software hosted by third parties).

    These service providers are not allowed to use your personal data for purposes which are not directly related to processing of orders (e.g. payment processing, delivery). Such providers must comply with data protection law and to have systems and processes to protect the security of your personal information.

    Personal data may also be disclosed upon lawful request from government authorities, law enforcement and regulatory authorities, and where required or permitted by relevant local law and for tax or other purposes. For example, if the police or any other regulatory or government authority investigating suspected illegal activities requests CCTV recordings, we possess, we are obliged to comply with their requests and provide data.

    International Transfers

    We do our best to keep your data inside the UK and EU area. With that, some processes require use of foreign service providers to be efficient.

    Namely, we use Mailchimp mailout software to communicate our newsletters to the subscribers. Mailchimp hosted by the US company, which however provides sufficient guarantees in sphere of privacy and personal data protection. As an additional safeguard we make this processing activity as transparent as possible and provide data subjects with additional safeguard i.e., a consent that they can give and withdraw at any time. Should a data subject withdraw consent, we promptly delete data from Mailchimp.

    Data Retention

    We will retain personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or reporting requirements. Such period as is necessary to perform the purposes for which it was collected.

    In many cases this means that personal data will be retained for the duration of the time that we provide goods and services to you and then for a reasonable time thereafter in order to manage any problems, process any returns, manage our relationship with you, defend any claims, for tax purposes and/or for any other record keeping purposes.

    If you have registered for an account on our website, then we will continue to retain your personal information in order to maintain your account.

Your Rights

  • Under the UK GDPR you have certain legal rights, which are briefly summarised below, in relation to any personal data about you which we hold:

    Accessing data

    You have the right to ask us to provide information on how we process your data. As well you can request copies of your personal data we hold about you.

    Data portability

    You have the right to ask that we transfer the information you gave us to another organisation, or to you, in certain circumstances.

    Changing or updating data

    You have the right ask us to rectify information you think is inaccurate. You also have the right to ask us to complete information you think is incomplete.

    Deleting data

    You have the right to ask us to delete or remove your data in certain circumstances. For instance, if you withdraw consent and believe that is no good reason for us continuing to process it. In some cases, we may be required to continue storing data for regulatory purposes even though you require us to delete it. Should this be the case, we will provide you with further information.

    Objecting, restricting processing

    You have the right to request that we stop using all or some of your personal data, or that we limit (restrict) our use of their data. This includes objecting to use of personal data that is based on legitimate interests. If we process your personal data for direct marketing purposes, we will stop such processing without any exceptions after we receive such a request from you. But, in other cases we may continue to process data after such objection or request to the extent required or permitted by law.

    Complaints

    You have the right to file a complaint with the supervisory authority if you think that some our privacy practices are not in compliance with the UK GDPR. We would, however, appreciate the chance to deal with your concerns before you approach the ICO.

    Security of data

    We take the protection of personal data seriously. We have implemented appropriate technical, physical and organisational and security measures to ensure the data is kept accurate, up to date and protected against unauthorised or accidental destruction, alteration or disclosure, accidental loss, unauthorised access, misuse, unlawful processing and/or damage.

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

How to contact us

  • You can contact us by email hi@sleep8.eu if you have any questions about this privacy policy or the information we hold about you, to exercise a right under data protection law.

    We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights below). This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.

    We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it could take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated.
