3. Data TNM collects?

To provide you with a better experience, the Service requires some personally identifiable information. When you register in the App, you voluntarily give us data such as name, email, and age. You have the access and can update this information under settings at any time. We also collect aggregated, anonymous user data about the use of the app. All data is stored in the EU/EEA and is owned by TNM.

3.1. Google Maps

TNM uses Google Maps, and its API, to present relevant stores in a map. Your location data is linked to the device used. The basis for processing personal data relating to location data is Article 6 (1) (b) in the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR); the processing is necessary to fulfill an agreement to which you are a party, or to take action on your request before entering into an agreement. The agreement in this case is the Terms and Conditions of the Service. If you do not provide this information, or refuse to process it, the agreement cannot be fulfilled.

As an alternative to using location data, you can use postal code. This allows you to use the app and see shops without allowing the use of location data.

3.2. Google Firebase

TNM uses Google Firebase to send messages with updates. These are not visible push messages, but data messages sent to the Service when the content is updated. The processing basis for processing personal data using Google Firebase is Article 6 (1) (b) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The processing is necessary to fulfill an agreement to which you are a party, or to take action on your request before entering into an agreement.

The agreement in this case is the Terms and Conditions of the Service. If you do not
provide this information, or refuse to process it, the agreement cannot be fulfilled.

3.3. Facebook and Google
In addition to signing by email, you can sign in to the Services through your Facebook or Google accounts (external services). When you login using external services accounts, we may collect your personal data that you have provided to that external service. For example, when you sign in with your Facebook credentials, you consent we may collect personal data from your Facebook profile that is allowed under Facebook’s terms of use, such as your email address and profile picture. If you do not want to provide us with this information, you will need to modify the privacy settings on your external services account.

3.4. Push notifications
When you register an account with us, you have a choice of receiving announcements about us and our products via email and/or push notifications. If you consent to such messages, we may use your personal data and other information to communicate with you. You can change communication channels at any time from settings. We may use your personal data to respond to your requests for technical support, online services, and product information. This includes accessing your account to address technical support requests.

Please note that irrespective of your email and push notifications settings, we may send you notifications pertaining to the performance of our Services, such as revision of our Terms and Conditions or Privacy Policy.

4. Where we store your personal data and how long we store it

The data that we collect from you is stored within the European Economic Area (“EEA”) but may also be transferred to and processed in a country outside of the EEA. Any such transfer of your personal data will be carried out in compliance with applicable laws. TNM only stores personal data as long as it is necessary for legitimate purposes or to provide the Service to the users, in accordance with applicable law.
