Marketing and opting out
We strive to provide you with choices regarding certain personal data uses, particularly around marketing and advertising. You can update your marketing preferences by logging into your account and selecting the opt-out option. Alternatively, if you would like to continue to receive marketing communications but want to change some features, please contact us at dataprivacy@myrofficial.com.

Opting out of marketing messages will not prevent you from receiving non-marketing messages from us, for example, relating to products ordered from us, responses to customer service queries, etc.
Promotional offers from us
We may use your Identity, Contact, Technical, Transaction, Usage, and Profile Data to form a view on what we think you may want or need, or what may be of interest to you. This is how we decide which products, services, and offers may be relevant for you (this is “marketing”).
You will receive marketing communications from us if you have requested information from us or purchased goods or services from us, and in each case, you have not opted out of receiving that marketing. You will also receive marketing communications from us if you have provided us with your details when you entered a competition or registered for a promotion and gave us your consent as part of that process.
Third-Party Marketing
We will get your express opt-in consent before we share your personal data with any other company for marketing purposes. However, we may release your personal information to our authorized direct marketing agents who will be sending information to you on our behalf unless you tell us that you do not wish this to happen.

If you disable or refuse cookies, please note that some parts of this website may become inaccessible or not function properly.

Change of purpose
We will only use your personal data for the purposes for which we collected it unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason and that reason is compatible with the original purpose. If you wish to get an explanation as to how the processing for the new purpose is compatible with the original purpose, please contact us.
If we need to use your personal data for an unrelated purpose, we will notify you and we will explain the legal basis that allows us to do so.
Please note that we may process your personal data without your knowledge or consent, in compliance with the above rules, where this is required or permitted by law.
5. Disclosures of your personal data
We may have to share your personal data with the parties set out below for the purposes described in the table in paragraph 4 above.
-
External Third Parties as set out in the Glossary.

Third parties to whom we may choose to sell, transfer, or merge parts of our business or our assets. Alternatively, we may seek to acquire other businesses or merge with them. If a change occurs in our business, the new owners may use your personal data in the same way as outlined in this privacy notice.
We require all third parties to respect the security of your personal data and to treat it in accordance with the law. We do not allow our third-party service providers to use your personal data for their own purposes and only permit them to process your personal data for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions.
6. International Transfers
Some of our external third parties are based outside of Brazil, so their processing of your personal data may involve a transfer of data outside of Brazil. This includes our franchise partners worldwide for fulfillment purposes.
Whenever we transfer your personal data out of Brazil, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by implementing at least one of the following safeguards:
-
We will transfer your personal data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data by Brazilian authorities and/or the European Commission.

7. Data Security
We have implemented appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorized way, altered, or disclosed. Additionally, we limit access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors, and other third parties who have a business need to know. They will only process your personal data on our instructions and are subject to a duty of confidentiality.
We have established procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breaches and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so.
8. Data Retention
How long will you use my personal data for?
We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which we collected it, including for satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.
To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data, whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.
By law, we are required to keep basic information about our customers (including Contact, Identity, Financial, and Transaction Data) for seven years after they cease being customers for tax purposes. We also retain this basic information for seven years following your most recent active interaction with us to enable us to handle any after-sales queries efficiently. Additionally, we must keep basic information for warranty purposes for a period of seven years and for recall purposes for seven years. We maintain customer profile information that you have indicated you are happy for us to keep in order to keep you informed about our products, services, and events until you indicate that you no longer wish us to retain this data. At the end of these periods, we securely delete or anonymize your personal data in accordance with our providers’ processes. Most of our providers have processes in place for this, while a small number who do not are currently implementing them.
In some circumstances, you can ask us to delete your data; see [Request Erasure] below for further information.
In certain cases, we may anonymize your personal data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes, in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.

Request to Opt-Out of Automated Profiling: You have the right to opt-out of automated profiling that could have legal consequences for you and to have a human involved in the processing decision.
