1) What we collect

a) Information you provide to us

  • Account / checkout / quotes / support / RMA: name, email, phone, company (optional), billing and shipping addresses, order contents, comments/ticket content, serial numbers and issue description (for support), photos/videos you upload for diagnosis.

  • Payments & financing: we receive tokens/status from payment or financing providers; they hold full payment/credit data. See Section 6 (Vendors).

  • Marketing sign-ups / reviews: email address, marketing preferences; review text, rating, name/handle, optional photos.

b) Information collected automatically

  • Device and usage: IP address (used for geolocation), user agent, referrer, timestamps, language/country, pages viewed, events.

  • Security/anti-abuse: signals used to detect bots/fraud (incl. reCAPTCHA where implemented).

  • Cookies & similar tech: see Section 5 (Cookies).

c) Sources from third parties

  • Manufacturers/partners: when you request product info, support, or a quote via a manufacturer, we may receive your contact details and interest.

  • Couriers and payment/financing providers: transactional updates and confirmations.

  • Events/trade shows: when you ask us to contact you.

We do not intentionally collect special-category data (e.g., health, biometrics).


2) Purposes and lawful bases (EEA/UK)

Purpose Examples of data Lawful basis Notes
Order processing & delivery Identity, contact, addresses, order details Contract (Art. 6(1)(b)); Legal obligation for tax/invoices Necessary to perform the sale; certain records must be kept.
Customer support, warranty & RMA Contact details, order/serial, problem description, media you supply Contract Manufacturers may act as independent controllers when diagnosing/repairing; see Section 6 & 8.
Payments (Stripe/PayPal) Payment tokens/status, masked card meta Contract; Legitimate interests (fraud prevention) Processors store full payment data; we do not.
Financing (BNPL) (Klarna/Affirm) Identity/contact, order totals/items, addresses, risk signals Contract (to obtain financing) BNPL providers are independent controllers for credit/risk decisions.
Fraud prevention & security IP, device/usage, server logs, reCAPTCHA signals Legitimate interests Necessary to secure services; proportionate retention.
Analytics (GA4) Pseudonymous usage/events Consent (EEA/UK) GA4 runs only after opt-in; retention 14 months.
Advertising/remarketing (Google Ads, Meta Pixel) Online identifiers, events, UTM Consent (EEA/UK) Disabled until you allow “Marketing” cookies; withdraw anytime.
Email marketing Email, marketing preferences Consent (EEA/UK) Unsubscribe anytime; soft-opt-in used only where permitted by law.
Reviews/UGC Review text, rating, optional photos Legitimate interests and/or Contract Displaying genuine customer feedback and enabling you to post reviews.

Balancing test (LI): We process security/fraud data and publish reviews in ways users reasonably expect, with minimal intrusion and opt-outs where applicable.

2A) Is providing data mandatory? What happens if you don’t?

Certain personal data are necessary to enter into or perform a contract with you (for example, your name, contact details and shipping address to deliver an order, or basic issue details to handle a warranty claim). If you choose not to provide information that is required, we cannot provide the requested service (for example, process your purchase or complete support/RMA). For optional fields, we will indicate that they are optional and there is no consequence for leaving them blank.


3) How we share data (recipients)

We share personal data only as needed for the purposes above:

  • Payment processors: Stripe, PayPal.

  • Financing providers (BNPL): Klarna, Affirm.

  • Analytics/ads: Google (GA4/Ads/Tag Manager), Meta (Pixel).

  • Reviews: REVIEWS.io.

  • CRM/support: Bitrix24 (contact/lead management, web forms).

  • Manufacturers/partners: to fulfil drop-ship orders, provide technical support, or manage warranties (e.g., Modix, Raise3D, Unitree, and other brands we sell).

  • Couriers: UPS, FedEx, DHL for shipping and delivery notifications.

  • Hosting/infrastructure: InterServer (USA).

  • Authorities: where required by law, court order, or to protect rights.

We require processors to contractually protect personal data and act only on our instructions. Some recipients are independent controllers for their own services (e.g., payment/financing providers, some analytics/advertising tools, couriers, manufacturers for support/warranty).


4) International transfers

We operate internationally. When personal data is transferred outside the EEA/UK, we use appropriate safeguards such as:

  • Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) and the UK Addendum (where applicable);

  • vendors’ EU-US Data Privacy Framework certification (where applicable); and

  • supplementary measures (TLS in transit, encryption at rest, access controls, and data minimization).

You can request more information about these safeguards at sales@top3dshop.com.


5) Cookies & similar technologies

a) Our approach (EEA/UK)

We use a consent banner (Silktide Consent Manager) with Accept all / Reject all and granular categories. In the EEA/UK, non-essential cookies (analytics, advertising, social widgets) only load after your opt-in. You can change or withdraw your choices at any time via the persistent “Cookie settings” control (cookie icon and footer link).

We also integrate Google Consent Mode v2 so that your choices control whether analytics/ads tools may read/write cookies.

b) Categories we use

  • Essential: required to provide the site and checkout (cannot be switched off).

  • Analytics: help us understand usage (e.g., GA4).

  • Marketing: ads/retargeting and measurement (e.g., Google Ads, Meta Pixel).

  • Functional (as applicable): review widgets and similar tools.

c) Key cookies & retention

Actual names and durations may vary by your browser/device and our configuration.

Provider Examples of cookies / storage Category Typical duration Purpose
Google Analytics 4 (GA4) _ga (2y), _ga_<container> (2y), _gid (24h) Analytics 24h–2y Usage analytics after consent; GA4 does not log/store IP; geolocation derived at collection; retention set to 14 months.
Google Ads _gcl_au (90d), _gcl_aw (90d), _gcl_dc (90d) Marketing up to 90d Ads/attribution after consent.
Meta Pixel _fbp (90d), _fbc (up to 2y if coming from ad) Marketing 90d–2y Ads/measurement after consent.
Google reCAPTCHA (if present on forms) _GRECAPTCHA (≈6m) Essential/Security (or Consent in EEA/UK if not strictly necessary) up to 6m Bot mitigation; loads only where needed and in line with consent.
REVIEWS.io widget/session cookies (vary) Functional/Analytics session–1y Display and submit reviews; may set cookies to run embedded widgets.
Stripe/PayPal/Klarna/Affirm session cookies (vary) Essential (when chosen) session–varied Enable chosen payment/financing method. Only load when you use the method.

Change your choices: Use the “Cookie settings” control at any time to enable/disable categories. If you disable a category, we will stop future reads/writes and may clear known cookies associated with that category.


6) Our vendors (roles & purposes)

The vendors below either act as our processors (on our instructions) or as independent controllers for their own services. Follow each link for details on how they process data. “Transfer mechanism” indicates our typical safeguard approach for EEA/UK transfers.

We also share limited data with manufacturers we resell (e.g., Modix, Raise3D, Unitree, among others) as needed for drop-ship fulfilment, support, or warranty. In fulfilment, manufacturers typically act as our processors; for technical support/warranty they generally act as independent controllers.


7) Retention

We keep data only as long as needed for the purposes in this Policy:

  • Orders/invoices: 7 years (accounting/tax).

  • Payment tokens/meta & fraud records: up to 13 months after chargeback windows close.

  • Support/RMA/warranty: life of the case + up to 3 years (limitation periods).

  • Marketing subscribers: until you unsubscribe or after 24 months of inactivity.

  • Suppression list (opt-out): kept to honour opt-outs.

  • Analytics (GA4): 14 months.

  • Security logs: 180–365 days (rotation).

  • Lead lists (events/manufacturer referrals): 24 months unless re-permissioned.

  • Reviews/UGC: for the life of the listing, unless you remove it or request deletion.

  • Backups: limited-time rolling backups for disaster recovery.


8) Your choices & rights

a) Cookies & consent

Use the “Cookie settings” control to accept/decline non-essential cookies or withdraw your consent later. Consent Mode ensures your choice applies to our tags; we also endeavour to remove known cookies if you switch a category off.

b) EEA/UK rights (GDPR/UK-GDPR)

You can exercise your rights to access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, and objection, and to withdraw consent at any time by emailing sales@top3dshop.com (subject: “Privacy request”). We will verify your identity and respond within one month (extendable by two months for complex/multiple requests with notice). Some data must be retained to meet legal obligations (e.g., invoices). You may also lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority (or the UK ICO).

c) US & Canada (CPRA/other state laws; Canada PIPEDA/Law 25)

  • Right to know/access, correction, deletion: contact sales@top3dshop.com.

  • Opt-out of “sale”/“sharing” for cross-context behavioural advertising (California): set “Marketing” = Off in Cookie settings (and use the GPC signal if your browser supports it).

  • Sensitive data: we do not use sensitive data for inferring characteristics.

  • Appeals (where required by state law): if we deny a request, you can appeal via the same contact email.

  • Canada (Quebec Law 25): you can request access, rectification, and deletion; we rely on consent or other lawful bases per PIPEDA/Law 25.


9) Children

Our site and products are intended for professional/educational use and are not directed to children. We do not knowingly seek consent from children below the relevant digital-consent age in the EEA/UK. If you believe a child provided us data, contact sales@top3dshop.com.


10) Security

We apply appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect personal data, including TLS in transit, encryption at rest (where applicable), role-based access controls and MFA for staff tools, least-privilege, logging/monitoring, patch and vulnerability management, regular backups and disaster-recovery testing, staff training, incident response, and vendor risk reviews.


11) Automated decision-making & profiling

We do not make solely automated decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects about you. Financing providers (Klarna/Affirm) may make automated credit or risk decisions as independent controllers; consult their notices and contact them to request human review where available. We conduct profiling for ads and email segmentation only with your consent in the EEA/UK and you can withdraw it at any time.


12) Do Not Track

Some browsers offer “Do Not Track”; we currently respond to applicable Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals for state-law “sale/share” opt-outs by treating them as a request to disable Marketing cookies.


13) Changes to this Policy

We may update this Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will post a banner on our site and update the Effective date above. Prior versions are available on request.
