The protection of your privacy and data is very important to us and is always observed in all business transactions.
You can always use our website without providing personal information. However, different provisions may apply to individual services, to which we refer you separately below.
Changing World Imports Ltd, 9 Roman Lane, Sutton Coldfield, United Kingdom, B74 3AD, Phone: 0044-792-1925411, Email: privacy@changingworldimports.com.
No data protection officer has been appointed since this is not required by law.
Contrary to Shopifiy’s claim of being a data processor, Shopify actually also is a data controller in regards to the GDPR.
If you visit our website and shop on our website you hereby understand that Shopify is a data controller who collects and processes your data and who is responsible for handling your data, independently of our own responsibility as a data controller.
Therefore, if you wish to exercise any of your rights in regards to Shopify’s processing of your data, please contact Shopify directly.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority regarding the processing of your personal data by us.
You can contact us at any time for further information on this and other questions regarding personal data.
Furthermore, you have a right to obtain information as to whether personal data are transferred to a third country or to an international organisation. Where this is the case, you have the right to be informed of the appropriate safeguards relating to the transfer.
The personal data must be erased for compliance with a legal obligation in Union or Member State law to which we are subject.
Where we have made personal data public and are obliged pursuant to Article 17(1) to erase the personal data, we, taking account of available technology and the cost of implementation, will take reasonable steps, including technical measures, to inform other controllers processing the personal data that you have requested erasure by such controllers of any links to, or copy or replication of, those personal data, as far as processing is not required.
We no longer need the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but we are required by you for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
You have objected to processing pursuant to Article 21(1) of the GDPR pending the verification whether the legitimate grounds of us override those of you.
You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you, which was provided to us, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format.
You have the right to transmit those data to another controller without hindrance from us to which the personal data have been provided, as long as the processing is based on consent pursuant to point (a) of Article 6(1) of the GDPR or point (a) of Article 9(2) of the GDPR, or on a contract pursuant to point (b) of Article 6(1) of the GDPR, and the processing is carried out by automated means, as long as the processing is not necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in us.
Furthermore, in exercising your right to data portability pursuant to Article 20(1) of the GDPR, you have the right to have personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible and when doing so does not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.
You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time, to processing of personal data concerning you, which is based on point (e) or (f) of Article 6 (1) of the GDPR. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions.
We will no longer process the personal data in the event of the objection, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
If we process personal data for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to processing of personal data concerning you for such marketing. This applies to profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing.
If you object to us to the processing for direct marketing purposes, we will no longer process the personal data for these purposes.
In addition, you have the right, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to object to processing of personal data concerning you by us for scientific or historical research purposes, or for statistical purposes pursuant to Article 89(1) of the GDPR, unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out for reasons of public interest.
You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning you, or similarly significantly affects you, as long as the decision (1) is not is necessary for entering into, or the performance of, a contract between you and us, or (2) is not authorised by Union or Member State law to which we are subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, or (3) is not based on your explicit consent.
You have the right to withdraw your consent to processing of your personal data at any time. Your withdrawal does not affect the legality of the data processing until withdrawal.

Our company’s newsletter can only be received by you if (1) you have a valid email address and (2) you have signed up to have the newsletter sent to you.
As part of the double opt-in process, a confirmation email will be sent to the email address you initially entered to receive the newsletter at and in which we ask you to confirm that you wish to receive the newsletter.
This confirmation email is used to verify that you, as the owner of the email address, have authorized the receipt of the newsletter.
The purpose of this procedure is to verify your registration and, if necessary, to inform you regarding the potential misuse of your personal data.
When you contact us, e.g. just to obtain information from us, we process your data for this purpose.
If you contact us, e.g. to conclude a contract, we process your data for this purpose.
If you enter your order data on our website or via email, the data you provide, including your personal data, will be processed by us and the recipients mentioned below in order to (pre)process your order as part our business relationship with you, to process and manage your order, as well as to provide you with customer service.
We use a newsletter to inform our customers and business partners at regular intervals of offerings by the company. The advertised goods or services are designated in the declaration of consent.
The data collected in the course of your subscription to the newsletter will be used exclusively to send our newsletter.
Subscribers to the newsletter may also be informed by email should this be necessary to offer the newsletter service or the associated registration, e.g. in the event of changes to the newsletter or changes in technical conditions.
Why are we permitted to process your data?
When you contact us, e.g. just to obtain information from us, we may process your data on the basis of your consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) a GDPR and Art. 6 (1) f GDPR.
If you contact us to e.g. conclude a contract, we may process your data on the basis of Art. 6 (1) b GDPR and may save it on the basis of Art. 6 (1) c GDPR.

The data processing takes place at your request and is necessary to appropriately process your order for the cited purposes.
“Legitimate interest” pursuant to Art. 6 (1) f GDPR. The legitimate interest is our interest in initiating a business transaction and developing the business relationship with existing and potential customers.
The legal basis is your consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) a GDPR.
If you contact us solely to obtain information from us, we will process the data provided by you.
You provide information on a purely voluntary basis. However, we expressly ask that you not disclose any information that is likely to be of little or no relevance to your intended purpose. This applies in particular to specific categories of personal ("sensitive") data.
Which personal data is transmitted to us when ordering the newsletter depends on the input screen that is used for this purpose.
The only information that must be entered in order for the newsletter to be sent is your email address.
Entering additional, separately provided data is voluntary and will be used to let us address you personally.
When registering for the newsletter, we also store the IP address assigned by the Internet Service Provider (ISP), the computer system you used at the time of registration, and the date and time of registration.
The collection of this data is necessary in order to be able to track the (possible) misuse of your email address at a later date, and therefore serves as legal protection for us.
Who is your data transferred to?
With the exception of the recipients mentioned in this policy, the personal data collected about you in the context of the newsletter service will not be transferred to third parties.
How long do we process your data?
Your data will be stored in a form that will permit your identification only for as long as necessary for the purpose for which it is processed.
By providing us with your data via this website or via email, you expressly agree that your data will be processed by us and the aforementioned recipients for the duration of the processing of this information, including the personal data provided by you and any unsolicited and voluntarily provided special categories of personal data.
Consequently, in the event that you contact us solely to obtain information from us, your information will either be deleted immediately or deleted after the appropriate period which corresponds to the content of the communication has elapsed.
Upon revocation of your consent, we will erase (or instruct the erasure of) all your data from all databases, including accumulated data.
Due to commercial and tax regulations, we are obliged to save your address, payment and order data for a period of 7 years. In the event that you contact us to conclude a contract, your data will be deleted at the end of the 7th year after the last document has been recorded.
However, we limit such processing after 2 years, i.e. your data will only be used to comply with statutory obligations.
You data may continue to be stored due to statutory/legal retention obligations or contractual obligations, e.g. in regards to customers in relation to warranty or compensation or in regards to contractual partners (Art. 6 (1) c GDPR, Art. 17 (3) e GDPR).
Marketing data is stored for up to 3 years following the last contact.
The consent to process your personal data which you have given us in connection with the newsletter can be revoked at any time. Consequently, you can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time.
You can notify us of your revocation by clicking on the link provided in each newsletter email, via the form on the website or by sending a message to the contact point provided in the site legal notice.
