1. How is data collected on the website?

Below are the main methods used on the website to collect data:

Data is collected when you use the website services. Therefore, when you visit related digital assets and use services, usage, sessions, and related information may be collected, tracked, and stored.

Wix collects data that you provide yourself, for example when you contact us directly via a communication channel (e.g. via email or the contact form).

Wix may collect data from third party sources. It collects information you provide when you log into website services through a third party such as Facebook or Google.

Your personal information will only be used for the purposes set out in the privacy policy and only where the use of your personal information is necessary to perform or enter into a contract (e.g. to provide you with the services themselves or to provide customer or technical support ); or if the use of your personal data is necessary to comply with a relevant legal or regulatory obligation.

As an EU resident, you can: request confirmation as to whether or not personal data concerning you is being processed and request access to your personal data on file and to certain additional information; request to receive personal data that you have provided in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format; request rectification of your personal data held in connection with the website; request the erasure of your personal data; object to the processing of your personal data by the website; request the restriction of the processing of your personal data, or lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.

Please note, however, that these rights are not unlimited and may be subject to the website operator's own legitimate interests and regulatory requirements. If you have general questions about the personal information collected and how it is used, please use the contacts below.

While providing the services, data may be transferred across borders to affiliated companies or other third parties and from your country/jurisdiction to other countries/jurisdictions around the world. By using the services, you consent to the transfer of your data outside of the EEA.

If you are based in the EEA, your personal data will only be transferred to locations outside the EEA if the website operators are satisfied that an adequate or comparable level of protection of personal data is in place. Steps are taken by Wix to ensure that they have appropriate contractual arrangements in place with their third parties to ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place to reduce the risk of unlawful use, alteration, deletion, loss or theft of your personal information is minimized and that such third parties will act in accordance with applicable laws at all times.

If you are using the services as a California resident, you may have rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act ("CCPA") to request access to and deletion of your information.

To exercise your right to access and delete your data, please read below how to contact the website operators.

No user personally identifiable information is sold for the purposes of the CCPA.

2. What data is collected on the website?

Below is an overview of the data Wix may collect:

Unidentified and non-identifiable information that you provide during the registration process or that is collected through use of the website services (“Non-Personal Information”). Non-personal data do not allow any conclusions as to who collected them. Non-personal information collected consists primarily of technical and aggregate usage information.

Individually identifiable information, e.g. anything by which you can be identified or could be identified with reasonable effort (“personal data”). The personal information collected through the website services may include information requested from time to time, such as names, email addresses, addresses, phone numbers, IP addresses and more. If personal information is combined with non-personal information, it will be treated as personal information for as long as it is combined.

Newsletter:

If you subscribe to the newsletter, the data in the subscription form will be transmitted to the company who is responsible for the processing of this data. For this brevo (Sendinblue GmbH, Köpenicker Straße 126, 10179 Berlin) is used here. If you do not want your data to be analysed by brevo, you must unsubscribe from the newsletter.

The subscription takes place in a double opt-in procedure. Which means that after registering, you will receive an email asking you to confirm your registration which is necessary to avoid unauthorised people registering with your email address. When registering for the newsletter, the user's IP address and the date and time of registration are stored. This serves to prevent misuse of the personal data of the person concerned. Furthermore, data such as your clicking behaviour while reading the newsletter can be tracked to optimise its functionality. The data is used exclusively for sending the newsletter. Subscription to the newsletter can be cancelled by you at any time. Consent to the storage of personal data can also be revoked at any time. There is a corresponding link in every newsletter for this purpose.

3. Why is this data collected?

The data can be used for the following purposes:

To provide and operate the website services. To develop, customize and improve the website services. To respond to your feedback, requests and requests and to help. To analyse request and usage patterns. For other internal, statistical and research purposes. To improve data security and fraud prevention. To investigate violations, enforce terms and policies, and comply with applicable law, regulation, or governmental request. To send you updates, news, promotional material and other information related to our services. For promotional emails, you can decide for yourself whether you wish to continue receiving them. If not, simply click on the unsubscribe link in these emails.

4. Who is the data shared with?

Wix may share your information with their service providers to operate their services (e.g., storing information through third-party hosting services, providing technical support, etc.).

Wix may also disclose your information in the following circumstances: (i) to investigate, detect, prevent, or address unlawful activity or other wrongdoing; (ii) to establish or exercise rights of defence; (iii) to protect personal rights, property or safety, or the safety of users or the public; (iv) in the event of a change of control of us or any of our affiliated companies (by way of a merger, acquisition or purchase of (substantially) all assets, etc.); (v) to collect, hold and/or manage your data using authorized third party service providers (e.g. cloud service providers) as appropriate for business purposes; (vi) to work collaboratively with third parties to improve your user experience. To avoid misunderstandings, non-personal data can be transmitted or passed on to third parties or used in any other way at your own discretion.

When you visit or access the website services, Wix authorises third parties to use web beacons, cookies, pixel tags, scripts, and other technologies and analytics services ("tracking technologies"). These tracking technologies may allow third parties to collect your information automatically to improve the navigation experience on the website's digital assets, to optimize their performance and to ensure a customized user experience, as well as for security and fraud prevention purposes.

Your email address or other personally identifiable information will not be shared with any advertising company or advertising network without your consent.

5. Where is your data stored?

Non-personal data:

Please note that Wix and its partners and service providers are based around the world. For the purposes explained in this privacy policy, Wix stores and processes all non-personal information it collects in different jurisdictions.

Personal data:

Personal information may be maintained, processed and stored in the United States, Ireland, South Korea, Taiwan, Israel and other jurisdictions to the extent necessary for the proper provision of the Website services and/or as required by law.

6. How long is the data kept?

Please note that Wix will retain the information collected for as long as is necessary to provide the website services, comply with our legal and contractual obligations to you, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements.

Wix may, at its sole discretion, correct, supplement, or delete inaccurate or incomplete data at any time.

7. How is your data protected?

Wix provides the hosting service for the digital assets. Your data may be stored via the hosting provider's data storage, databases and general applications. It stores your data on servers behind a firewall, and it offers secure HTTPS access to most areas of its services.

Regardless of the measures and efforts taken by the hosting provider, the absolute privacy and security of any information you upload, post or otherwise share cannot and is not guaranteed.

For this reason, please choose secure passwords and, if possible, do not transmit any confidential information via the website services, the disclosure of which you believe could cause material or lasting harm to you. In addition, since email and instant messaging are not considered secure forms of communication, we ask that you do not share confidential information through any of these communication channels.

8. How is the data of minors handled?

Children may use the website services. However, if you want access to certain features, you may be required to provide certain information. Collection of some information (including information collected via cookies, web beacons and other similar technologies) may be automatic. If information collected from a child is knowingly collected, used, or disclosed, we will provide notice and obtain parental consent in accordance with applicable law. A child's participation in an online activity will not be conditioned on the child providing more contact information than is reasonably necessary to participate in that activity. The data collected will only be used in connection with the services that the child has requested.

A parent's contact information may also be used to communicate about the child's activities on the services. Parents can view information the website has collected about the child, prohibit the collection of further information from the child, and request that all collected information be deleted from the website's records.

Please contact the website manager(s) to view, update or delete your child's information. To protect your child, you may be asked to provide proof of your identity. Access to the data can be denied if your identity is questionable. Please note that certain data cannot be deleted due to other legal obligations.
