Welcome to Bubb.

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store and protect personal information when you visit https://getbubb.com, join our waiting list or contact us.

Bubb is currently in its pre-launch stage. This policy applies to our website and waiting list, not to the future Bubb application.

For the purposes of applicable data protection legislation, Barbara Effa Abeng is the data controller responsible for personal information collected through this website.

3. Information We Collect

We may collect the following categories of information:

Information you provide directly:

• Your email address when you join our waiting list.

• Your name and any other information you voluntarily include when contacting us.

Technical information:

When you visit our website, our website hosting and service providers may process technical information such as your IP address, browser type, device information, and information needed to deliver and secure the website.

Subscription information:

Our email marketing provider may process subscription status, signup information, unsubscribe preferences and available consent records.

We do not currently request family stories, photographs, recordings or family-tree information through the pre-launch website.

4. How We Use Your Information

We use personal information to:

• Manage the Bubb waiting list.

• Send requested information about Bubb’s development, launch and relevant product updates.

• Respond to questions and enquiries.

• Operate, maintain and protect our website.

• Manage subscription preferences and unsubscribe requests.

• Meet applicable legal obligations.

We will not use your waiting-list subscription as permission to send unrelated third-party marketing.

5. Legal Bases for Processing

Where the UK GDPR applies, we rely on the following legal bases, as appropriate:

Consent: To send marketing and launch-related emails where consent is required.

Legitimate interests: To respond to enquiries, maintain website security and administer our pre-launch operations, where those interests are not overridden by your rights.

Legal obligations: To comply with applicable laws and regulatory requirements.

You may withdraw your marketing consent at any time.

6. Email Communications

If you join the Bubb waiting list, we may email you about the upcoming launch, relevant product news and developments covered by your signup choice.

You can unsubscribe at any time using the unsubscribe link in our marketing emails or by contacting hello@getbubb.com.

Withdrawing consent will not affect processing that was lawful before your withdrawal.

7. Service Providers

We use third-party services to operate our pre-launch website.

These include:

Framer: Our website platform and hosting provider.

Mailchimp: Our waiting-list and email marketing service provider.

These providers may process personal information on our behalf or in accordance with their applicable service terms and privacy policies.

We do not sell our waiting-list email addresses.

8. International Data Transfers

Because our service providers may operate internationally, personal information may be processed or stored outside the United Kingdom, including in the United States.

Where required, we will rely on appropriate international transfer mechanisms and safeguards under applicable data protection law.

9. Data Retention

We retain waiting-list information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including managing the pre-launch waiting list and related communications.

If you unsubscribe, we will stop sending marketing emails. Limited information may be retained where necessary to maintain suppression records, demonstrate compliance or meet legal obligations.

Information submitted through enquiries is retained only as long as reasonably necessary to respond and handle any related matters.

We periodically review the information we hold and delete or anonymise information when it is no longer needed.

10. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your location and the laws that apply, you may have rights to:

• Request access to your personal information.

• Request correction of inaccurate information.

• Request deletion of your information.

• Object to or restrict certain processing.

• Request data portability where applicable.

• Withdraw consent where processing relies on consent.

• Lodge a complaint with a relevant data protection authority.

To exercise your rights, email hello@getbubb.com.

We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling certain requests.

UK residents may also contact the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) at https://ico.org.uk.

Residents of certain US states may have additional rights where applicable state privacy laws apply to our activities.

We will not discriminate against you for exercising applicable privacy rights.

11. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Our website may use cookies or similar technologies necessary for website operation, security or functionality.

Please read our Cookie Policy for further information.

We do not currently intend to use Meta Pixel or TikTok Pixel on the pre-launch website.

If we introduce non-essential tracking technologies, we will update our disclosures and obtain consent where legally required.

12. Children’s Privacy

Our pre-launch waiting list is intended for people aged 18 or older.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children through this website.

If you believe a child has provided personal information, please contact us so that we can review the matter and take appropriate action.

13. Data Security

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse and disclosure.

However, no internet transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

14. Third-Party Links

Our website may contain links to third-party websites or services.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those independent websites. We encourage you to review their privacy policies.

15. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our website, services, technology or legal obligations.

The latest version will be published on this page with an updated revision date.

Where required, we will provide additional notice or request consent before introducing materially different uses of personal information.
