Privacy Policy
Privicy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains what personal information AllLinkX (“we”, “our”, “us”) collects, why we collect it, how we use it, who we share it with, how long we keep it, and the rights you have. It also explains region-specific rights and compliance commitments (EU/EEA/UK, California, Canada, Brazil, Australia, and other jurisdictions). If anything below is unclear, contact us at privacy@alllinkx.com.
- Scope & who we are
AllLinkX provides cellular modules, development kits and related online services. This policy applies to personal information collected through our website, web forms, emails, evaluation kit orders, event signups, marketing and support interactions, and related online services. It does not govern third-party websites (links to third parties are covered in Section 9).
- Summary — the quick version
- We collect only the personal information needed to provide services, communicate with you, perform contracts, and meet legal obligations.
- We use cookies and similar technologies for site operation, analytics, functionality, and advertising (see Cookies section).
- You have rights to access, correct, delete, port, and limit processing of personal information — detailed below with region-specific instructions.
- We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your data.
- What personal information we collect
Categories (examples):
- Contact & identity data: name, job title, company, business email, business phone.
- Account & order data: billing address, purchase history, order details, delivery address. (Payment processing is handled by third-party payment processors; we do not store full card numbers.)
- Technical & usage data: IP address, device/browser, operating system, pages visited, referrer, timestamps, crash logs.
- Support & communications: message contents from contact forms, live chat transcripts, support tickets.
- Marketing data: marketing preferences, cookie identifiers, analytics identifiers.
- Limited sensitive data where necessary: in rare cases (e.g., regulatory/contractual requirements) we may process limited sensitive categories (e.g., government ID for certifications) — in such cases we restrict use and rely on explicit consent or another lawful basis.
- How we collect it
- Directly from you (forms, account registration, purchases, email, phone).
- Automatically (cookies, analytics, log files).
- From third parties (resellers, distributors, analytics providers, public sources).
- From partners where you’ve consented to information sharing.
- Purposes for which we use personal information
We use personal information to:
- Provide, operate, and maintain our website and services (orders, shipments, account management).
- Process transactions and billing.
- Provide support and respond to inquiries.
- Send transactional messages and, where you consent, marketing communications.
- Improve services, run analytics, and detect/prevent fraud and abuse.
- Comply with legal obligations (tax, export controls, certification, court orders).
- Facilitate business operations (e.g., mergers, legal requests).
We limit uses to those compatible with the purpose at collection or as otherwise permitted by law.
- Legal bases (EU/UK/EEA residents)
If you are located in the EU/EEA or UK we rely on one or more lawful bases to process personal data, including:
- Performance of a contract (e.g., orders, subscriptions).
- Legitimate interests (e.g., preventing fraud, improving site performance) — we balance these interests against your rights.
- Your consent (for marketing, non-essential cookies, advertising where required).
- Compliance with legal obligations.
You may request the lawful basis applied to specific processing. See GDPR text and guidance for details. GDPR+1
- Your rights (how to exercise them)
We respond to privacy requests in line with applicable law. Typical rights include:
EU/UK (GDPR) — data subject rights: access, rectification, erasure (“right to be forgotten”), restriction, portability, object to processing, withdraw consent where processing is by consent, and right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. For guidance on privacy notices and required information see ICO guidance. GDPR+1
California (CCPA / CPRA): California residents have rights to: know categories and specific pieces of personal information collected and disclosed; request deletion; request correction; opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information (we provide an opt-out mechanism); and non-discrimination for exercising rights. Under CPRA there are additional protections for sensitive personal information and new obligations for businesses. To submit a verifiable request for California rights, see Section 14. California DOJ+1
Canada (PIPEDA): Individuals have the right to access and correct their personal information, and organizations must obtain meaningful consent for collection, use and disclosure. See the Office of the Privacy Commissioner (OPC) for guidance. Privacy Commissioner Canada
Brazil (LGPD): Data subjects have rights similar to the GDPR (access, correction, anonymization, portability, erasure, information about data sharing, and to withdraw consent). The LGPD applies to processing of personal data of individuals in Brazil and establishes local supervisory oversight. Usercentrics
Australia (APPs): APP entities must provide open and transparent management of personal information and offer access and correction rights in most cases. See OAIC guidance for details. OAIC
How to make a request:
Email privacy@alllinkx.com with the subject line “Privacy Request — [Your Region]”. Provide sufficient information to verify your identity. We will acknowledge receipt and respond within the timeframes required by applicable law (e.g., GDPR/UK: one month; California: within required statutory timeframe). We may need additional information to verify identity for certain requests.
- Cookies, tracking and consent
We use cookies and similar technologies for: necessary site functions, performance & analytics, functionality, and advertising/targeting. We present a cookie banner where required and provide granular controls via our Consent Management Platform (CMP). You can change your preferences anytime via the “Cookie Settings” link in the site footer. See our Cookie Notice page for full details and a cookie table.
- Sharing & third parties
We share personal information only as necessary to deliver services or where required by law, including:
- Vendors and service providers (hosting, analytics, CRM, payment processors, fulfillment).
- Professional advisors (legal, audit).
- Buyers in the event of a corporate transaction (merger, acquisition).
- Law enforcement or regulators where required by law.
We require third parties to process data per our instructions and contractually bind them to protect personal data.
- International transfers
AllLinkX is based in the United States and may transfer personal information to the U.S. and other countries. When transferring personal data from the EU/EEA or UK, we use lawful transfer mechanisms (e.g., adequacy decisions, standard contractual clauses or other appropriate safeguards) or rely on permitted derogations where applicable. If you want details about the transfer mechanism used for your data, contact privacy@alllinkx.com. (See GDPR and supervisory guidance for transfer options.) GDPR
- Data retention
We retain personal information for as long as needed to provide services, meet business or legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Specific retention periods depend on the data type and purpose (e.g., transactional records: typically 6–7 years for tax and audit; marketing preferences: until changed). Where required by law, we retain data for the statutory retention period.
- Security
We maintain reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect personal data. These include access controls, encryption in transit, secure hosting, vulnerability management, and employee training. No system is perfect; if there is a security incident affecting personal data we will notify affected individuals and regulators as required by applicable law.
- Children
Our services are not directed to children under 16 (or a higher age where local law sets a higher threshold). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we learn we have collected a child’s personal data in violation of law, we will delete it as soon as reasonably possible.
- California-specific disclosures (CCPA/CPRA)
