Personal data we collect

Pobeda Web Solutions collects data from you, through our interactions with you and through our products for a variety of purposes described below, including to operate effectively and provide you with the best experiences with our products. You provide some of this data directly, such as when you fill in the enquiry form on www.pobeda.co.uk and create an e-mail account for your domain or contact us for support. We get some of it by collecting data about your interactions, use, and experience with our products and communications.

We rely on a variety of legal reasons and permissions (sometimes called “legal bases”) to process data, including with your consent, a balancing of legitimate interests, necessity to enter into and perform contracts, and compliance with legal obligations, for a variety of purposes described below.

We also obtain data from third parties. We protect data obtained from third parties according to the practices described in this statement, plus any additional restrictions imposed by the source of the data. These third-party sources vary over time and include:

• Data brokers from which we purchase demographic data to supplement the data we collect.
• Services that make user-generated content from their service available to others, such as local business reviews or public social media posts.
• Communication services, including email providers and social networks, when you give us permission to access your data on such third-party services or networks.
• Service providers that help us determine your device’s location.
• Partners with which we offer co-branded services or engage in joint marketing activities.

We will notify you if this is the case at the time. Where providing the data is optional, and you choose not to share personal data, features like personalization that use the data will not work for you. The data we collect depends on the context of your interactions with Pobeda Web Solutions and the choices you make (including your privacy settings), the products and features you use, your location, and applicable law.

The data we collect can include the following:

Name and contact data. Your first and last name, email address, postal address, phone number, and other similar contact data.
