01: Data Management

How does Blinki collect and store your information?

Blinki acts as the data processor for your master user account, including name, email, username for your master user account, as well as the username and email for sub-users attached to your account, and the billing details for any purchases. This is all for the purposes of account set up and continued use. 

In addition, we may collect automatically received browser or mobile platform information, including your location, IP address, cookie information, and activity on the site. Analytics, including IP addresses are anonymized wherever possible. This information is processed in order to enhance the functionality of our site and services.

Finally, our website creation component, acts as a subprocessor for some of your data, including analytics information, contact form submissions, and ecommerce information.

How does Blinki collect and store your site visitor’s information?

Personal information collected by us about site visitors is used for operational needs to provide the service; this is never shared externally. Analytics, contact form submissions, and ecommerce information is collected and transferred by subprocessors

• Analytics: This includes Google Analytics and other internal analytics. The IPs are anonymized, and they can also be disabled; send the Blinki team an email requesting this.
  
  
• Contact Form: When you add a contact form to your site, the submitted personal information will be stored. This feature allows you to retrieve form responses but can be deleted from your account at any time.
  
  
• Ecommerce : Customer information will be collected and disclosed to the third-party ecommerce platform (Ecwid) when purchasing from your store. Customers provide consent when entering information; this allows you to retrieve customer, order, and billing information for the purposes of selling products and/or services. This information is retained during the period of the contract and can be deleted directly through your site editor.
  

How do I update or delete my data?

Any requests for update or deletion of a master account, billing information, and sub-user information can be made to Blinki at any point. We will provide written confirmation that this has been updated or removed from our system, as well that the relevant items have been update or removed from our web creation component.

• Analytics: Send us an email requesting that the analytics feature be disabled, and we will provide written confirmation that this has been done.
  
  
• Contact Form : You can delete any form responses from your account; simply visit your site editor, enter the Content tab, and select “Manage Form Responses.” 
  
  
• Ecommerce: You can remove customer and site visitor data right from your site editor. To delete information for someone who purchased/signed up for information through your Ecwid store, simply visit the control panel, delete the customer profile, along with any orders or other information from them.
  

Note: do not delete information needed for order fulfillment or required for other legal reasons.
