9. Marketing Communications and Newsletters
From time to time, we may send you newsletters and other marketing communications about Great Wave AI, including product updates, feature announcements, promotions, event invitations, and other content we think may be of interest to you. This section explains how we do this and the choices available to you.
Information we use: To send you our newsletter and marketing communications, we use the contact details you provide to us, such as your email address and, where available, your first and last name and job title. We may also use usage data (as described in Section 1) to tailor the content of our communications so that it is more relevant to you. We do not use special category data for marketing purposes.
Legal basis: We send marketing communications and newsletters either on the basis of your consent, or in reliance on the “soft opt-in” permitted under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR). The soft opt-in applies only where all of the following are met: we obtained your contact details in the course of a sale, or negotiations for a sale, of our products or services to you; we are marketing our own similar products or services; and you were given a clear and simple opportunity to opt out of such communications both at the point your details were collected and in every message since. Where these conditions are not met, we will rely on your prior consent, which we will obtain before adding you to our newsletter list and which you may decline without affecting your access to our services. We direct our newsletters and marketing communications to business users at their corporate contact details, and not to consumers at personal addresses. Where the recipient is an individual (for example, a named employee at a work address), we continue to treat their contact details as personal data and apply the protections set out in this policy, including the right to opt out at any time.
No third-party marketing: We use your details only to send you marketing about our own products and services. We do not sell, rent, or share your contact details with third parties for their own marketing purposes.
Third-party providers: We use third-party email and marketing service providers to manage our mailing lists and deliver our communications on our behalf. These providers act as our processors, may only process your data on our documented instructions, and are bound by appropriate contractual and security obligations, in accordance with Section 4 (Sharing Your Information) and Section 5 (Data Security) of this policy. Where this involves a transfer of your data outside the UK or EEA, we apply the safeguards described in Section 6 (International Transfers).
Your choices and how to opt out: You can opt out of receiving our newsletters and marketing communications at any time, free of charge, by clicking the “unsubscribe” link included in every marketing email we send, or by contacting us using the details in Section 13 (Contact Us). We action opt-out requests promptly. To ensure we respect your choice, we retain a minimal record of your opt-out (for example, your email address on a suppression list) for the sole purpose of not contacting you again. Withdrawing your consent or opting out will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you did so, and you may continue to receive service-related or transactional messages that are necessary for us to provide our services to you.
Retention of marketing data: We retain the personal data used for marketing purposes only for as long as we have a lawful basis to do so, matching the basis on which we contacted you. Where we rely on your consent, we retain your details for marketing purposes until you withdraw that consent or unsubscribe, after which we stop sending you marketing communications. Where we rely on the soft opt-in, we retain your details for marketing purposes for as long as you remain a customer and for a reasonable period afterwards, after which we cease sending you marketing communications unless you have separately consented to continue receiving them. In either case, opting out or withdrawing consent takes effect promptly, and we will retain only the minimal record needed to honour your choice (for example, your email address on a suppression list), as described above.
Children: Consistent with Section 12, our products, services, and marketing communications are not intended for or directed at children under 16, and we do not knowingly send marketing communications to them.
Your right to complain: If you are unhappy with how we handle your data for marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time, and you may also lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), the UK supervisory authority, at ico.org.uk.
