Golden Discs Ltd. (“Golden Discs”, “we”, or “us”) values and respects your privacy. This Privacy Notice describes our privacy practices associated with our loyalty program and the Golden Discs Loyalty App (the “App”).
For more information on the manner in which we treat personal information, please refer to our Privacy Policy.
COLLECTION AND USE OF INFORMATION
In the course of providing the Golden Discs loyalty program, we collect and use information for the purposes identified below.
-
Registration: In order to participate in the Golden Discs loyalty program, you are required to create an account on our Website or App. To fully participate in it and earn and redeem stamps, you are also required to download, install and log-in to the Golden Discs App. When you create an account, we collect your first and last name, email address, mobile phone number, and a password that you create. You can optionally provide your postal code. We use this information to create and administer your account and participation in the Golden Discs loyalty program. We strongly recommend that you do not disclose your password to anyone. We will never ask you for your password in any unsolicited communication (such as letters, phone calls or email messages).
-
Collecting Stamps: To earn stamps on your purchase, you are required to scan your receipt through the App and upload it to us. We collect information from the receipts, such as the store location, the date and time of the transaction, the ten-digit transaction number, the nine-digit operator ID, basic details of the product(s) purchased, and the total amount spent, in order to calculate the number of stamps you have earned, which you may then redeem in-store when your stamp card is full.
-
Location Information: If you consent, we collect your location information by accessing your device’s GPS coordinates so that we can provide you with location-based services, such as sending you location-based push notification when you are within a close radius of a Store (if you have consented as set out below) or showing you Stores nearby. You can opt-out of location tracking at any time by turning off your location services for the App in the settings of your mobile device.
-
Push Notifications: If you provide your consent to receive push notifications, we may display push notifications on your mobile device such as welcome messages, product features and promotional offers. If you also have enabled location services for the App, we will send you real-time push notifications when you are within a tight radius of a Store. If you wish to stop receiving push notifications from us, you can turn off push notifications for the App in the settings of your mobile device.
-
Subscribe to our Mailing List or Newsletter: When you create an account on the App, you may be provided with the option to sign-up to receive our email mailing list or newsletter (including Golden Discs offers and promotions). If you sign-up, we collect your name and email address. If you no longer wish to receive these communications, you can unsubscribe at any time by clicking the “unsubscribe” link included at the bottom of the newsletter. Alternatively, you can opt-out of receiving our newsletter by contacting us at the contact information under “Contact Us” below. Please note that you may continue to receive certain transactional or account-related communications from us.
We may also use services provided by third-party platforms (such as social networking and other websites) to serve targeted advertisements on such platforms to you or others, and we may provide a hashed version of your email address or other information to the platform provider for such purposes. To opt-out of the use of your information for such purposes, please contact us at info@goldendiscs.ie.
-
App Usage Information & Analytics: As with many applications, certain limited data is required for the App to function on your device. This data includes the type of device hardware and operating system, unique device identifier, IP address, language settings, and the date and time the App accesses our servers. We use this information to help us understand the activity on our App, to monitor and improve our App, and to tailor your in-App experience. In addition, we may use third party service providers to collect analytical information about your use of the App, such as the App features used and time spent on the App, to help us tailor your in-app experience, improve our products and the quality of our App, and to manage and analyse data in order to better understand our users.
