This page explains what DataScoop collects about you and why. It is written to be read, not skimmed past.
Your email address, when you request an API key, so we can issue and manage the key. Payment details are collected and stored by Stripe, our payment processor; we never see your card number. Stripe shares with us the email and the amount paid so we can deliver what you bought. Server logs (IP address, requested URL, time) are kept briefly for security and reliability. We do not run advertising trackers.
To provide the service you asked for (issuing keys, delivering downloads, running subscriptions), to prevent abuse, and to comply with tax and accounting law. Our legal bases are contract and legitimate interests.
The datasets on this site are official public records about businesses, premises and permits. They are organisational data only. We remove personal fields (people's names, phone numbers, home addresses) from every source that contains them.
You can ask us what we hold about you, ask us to correct or delete it, or object to processing, by emailing hello@datascoop.io. You can also complain to your data protection authority (in the UK, the ICO).
Account emails are kept while your key or subscription is active and for as long as tax law requires afterwards. Logs are kept for a short period and then deleted.
