What Legal Basis Do We Rely On To Process Your Information?
This section applies to you if you are in the EU or UK.
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and UK GDPR require us to explain the valid legal bases we rely on in order to process your personal information. We may rely on the following legal bases to process your personal information.
- Consent. We may process your information if you have given us permission (i.e., consent) to use your personal information for a specific purpose. You can withdraw your consent at any time.
- Performance of a Contract. We may process your personal information when we believe it is necessary to fulfill our contractual obligations to you, including providing our services or at your request, prior to entering into a contract with you.
- Legitimate Interests. We may process your information when we believe it is reasonably necessary to achieve our legitimate business interests, and those interests do not outweigh your interests and fundamental rights and freedoms. For example, we may process your personal information for some of the purposes described in order to:
- Send users information about special offers and discounts on our products.
- Develop and display personalized and relevant advertising content for our users.
- Analyze how our website is used so we can improve them to engage and retain users.

We may process your information where we believe it is necessary for compliance with our legal obligations, such as to cooperate with a law enforcement body or regulatory agency, exercise or defend our legal rights, or disclose your information as evidence in litigation in which we are involved.
- Vital Interests. We may process your information where we believe it is necessary to protect your vital interests or the vital interests of a third party, such as in situations involving potential threats to the safety of any person.
Who and When We Share Your Personal Data With
We may share personal data with third-party vendors, service providers, contractors, or agents (“third parties”) who perform services for us or on our behalf and require access to such information to do that work. We have some contracts in place with our third parties, which are designed to safeguard your personal information. This means that most third parties cannot do anything with your personal information unless we have instructed them to do it. They will also not share your personal information with any organization apart from us. Third parties are also committed to protecting the data they hold on our behalf and to retaining it for the period we instruct.
The categories of third parties we may share personal information with are as follows:
- Sales and Marketing Tools
- Website Hosting Service Providers
- User Account Registration & Authentication Services
- Payment Processors/Payment Service Providers
- Order Fulfillment Service Providers
- Delivery Companies
- Data Storage Service Providers
- Data Analytics Services
- Communication Collaboration Tools
- Cloud Computing Services
- Affiliate Marketing Programs
We only allow those organizations to handle your personal data if we are satisfied that they take appropriate measures to protect your personal data.
We or the third parties mentioned above occasionally also share personal data with:
- Our and their external auditors, e.g., in relation to the audit of accounts, in which case the recipient of the information will be bound by confidentiality obligations.
- Our and their professional advisors (such as lawyers and other advisors), in which case the recipient of the information will be bound by confidentiality obligations.
- Law enforcement agencies, courts, tribunals, and regulatory bodies to comply with our legal and regulatory obligations.
- Other parties that have or may acquire control or ownership of Horizon Systems in connection with a significant corporation transaction or restructuring, including a merger, acquisition, asset sale, initial public offering, or in the event of our insolvency—usually, information will be anonymized, but this may not always be possible. The recipient of any of your personal data will be bound by confidentiality obligations.
We will not share your personal data with any other third party.
Where Is Your Personal Data Held
How Long We Store Personal Data
Horizon Systems only retains personal data until the purpose for which the data was collected has been achieved, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law (such as tax, accounting, or other legal requirements). You will be notified if your data is kept for longer than this period.
When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal data, we will either delete or anonymize such data, or if this is not possible (for example, because your personal data has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal data and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.
We never sell your personal information.
