A legal disclaimer

Welcome to MindfulBeingStore. We are committed to protecting your personal data and your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you visit our website and purchase our health and beauty products.

​

1. Who We Are

MindfulBeingStore is a UK-based company. For the purposes of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), we are the "Data Controller" of your personal information.

 

2. Personal Data We Collect

We collect information that identifies you or allows us to contact you:

  • Identity Data: Name, surname.

  • Contact Data: Email address, shipping address, billing address, and phone number.

  • Transaction Data: Details about products you’ve purchased and payment confirmation (we do not store full credit card numbers; these are handled by our payment processors).

  • Technical Data: IP address, browser type, time zone settings, and usage data via cookies.

 

3. How We Use Your Data (Legal Basis)

Under GDPR, we must have a "lawful basis" to process your data. We use your data for:

  • Performance of a Contract: To process and deliver your order.

  • Legitimate Interests: To improve our store, prevent fraud, and provide customer support.

  • Consent: For email marketing (which you can withdraw at any time).

  • Legal Obligation: To comply with UK tax and accounting laws.

​

​

4. Third-Party Service Providers (Dropshipping Disclosure)

To run a dropshipping store, we must share your data with specific third parties. We only share the minimum data required for them to perform their services:

  • Suppliers & Fulfillment Partners: Your name and shipping address are shared with our global suppliers (including those outside the UK/EU) to ship products directly to you.

  • Payment Processors: We use secure gateways (e.g., Stripe, PayPal) to process payments.

  • Technology Providers: This includes Wix (our hosting platform) and analytics tools like Google Analytics.

 

5. International Data Transfers

Since we offer worldwide shipping and use international suppliers, your data may be transferred to and processed in countries outside the UK and the European Economic Area (EEA), such as the USA or China.

We ensure these transfers are lawful by:

  • Using Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission.

  • Using the UK International Data Transfer Agreement (IDTA).

  • Ensuring our suppliers provide an adequate level of data protection.

 

6. Cookies and Tracking

We use cookies to enhance your shopping experience, remember your cart, and analyze traffic. You can manage your cookie preferences through our "Cookie Banner" or your browser settings.

 

7. Data Retention

We keep your personal data only as long as necessary:

  • Order Information: Retained for 6 years to comply with UK tax/accounting regulations.

  • Marketing Data: Retained until you unsubscribe or withdraw consent.

 

8. Your Rights Under GDPR

You have the following rights regarding your data:

  • Right to Access: Request a copy of the data we hold about you.

  • Right to Rectification: Ask us to correct inaccurate information.

  • Right to Erasure ("Right to be Forgotten"): Request that we delete your data.

  • Right to Portability: Request a transfer of your data to another service.

  • Right to Withdraw Consent: Unsubscribe from marketing at any time.

To exercise these rights, contact us at support@mindfulbeingstore.com.

 

9. Security

We implement industry-standard security measures, including SSL encryption, to protect your data. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure.

 

10. Complaints

If you believe we have mishandled your data, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority:

  • In the UK: The Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) at www.ico.org.uk.

  • In the EU: Your local Data Protection Authority (DPA).
