F4NTEC ECOMMERCE ISRAEL LTD. (“we”, “our”, “us”, or “F4NTEC”) respects the privacy of its users and is committed to protect their personal data and use it in accordance with data privacy laws. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and process any personal data that we collect from you, or you provide to us, in connection with your use of our website (www.F4NTEC.com) or your use of our software, features or services (collectively, “Services”). By accessing or using our Services, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.
If you use our Services only for your sole personal use, you are to be considered as the “User” and for the purpose of the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), we are the data controller. If you use our Services to execute orders and deliver products to third parties, you are to be considered as the “Merchant” and with regard to your contact details and the other data listed in Section 1 below, we are the data controller. For your consumers who are making a purchase of your goods or products, but are not registered users, we act as the “data processor” for you, the Merchant: this means we only process their data to help us provide our Service to you, or in accordance with your instructions, or as required by law. You are solely responsible for making sure that their personal data is treated in accordance with applicable data protection laws. That includes informing them how service providers (like us) collect and use data on your behalf.
Note that while our Services may contain links to other websites or services, we are not responsible for each respective website’s or service’s privacy practices and encourage you to be aware of this when you leave our Services and carefully read the privacy statements of each and every website and service you visit. This Privacy Policy does not apply to third-party websites and services. If you wish to contact F4NTEC regarding your personal data or this Privacy Policy, please contact us at privacy@F4NTEC.com.

For the aforementioned purposes, we collect information that may contain the following personal data:
If you have given your consent when registering your account, when subscribing to our newsletter or blog, or shared your email address or other personal data with us to receive any other information (for example, our list of sub-processors), we will process your email address to send you the informative and/or promotional materials, to which you have subscribed to, for example, newsletters, advertisements of our Services and other information about our Services that you have requested. At any point in time you can unsubscribe from receiving the above-mentioned information in our email footers and through your notification settings on F4NTEC. For Merchants, we will not use the contact details of your consumers to directly market or advertise our Services to them.
When you call our consumer support phone line, we may monitor or record the call to ensure the quality of our consumer support. If you have a F4NTEC account, we will retain the recording for as long as you have an account. If you do not have an account, we will delete the recording within 12 months or retain it, if it will be needed to resolve disputes between you and us.

You have the right to request access to your personal data; in certain circumstances to correct, amend, delete, or restrict the use of your personal data by logging into your F4NTEC account or by reaching us using the contact information provided below. In addition, you can object to the processing of your personal data in some circumstances (in particular, where we are not required to process your data to meet a contractual or other legal requirement). These rights may be limited, for example, if fulfilling your request would reveal personal data about another person, or if you ask us to delete information which we are required by law to retain or have compelling legitimate interests in retaining.

All the information you provide may be transferred or accessed by our parent company in Israel, our affiliate companies and subsidiaries in other countries, such as Germany, and our Third Party Service Providers (as described above) for the provision of our Services as described in this Privacy Policy.
