GENERAL DATA PROTECTION REGULATION (GDPR)
The GDPR law is the European law that regulates the privacy rights of users from the European Economic Area (EEA). Our Declaration of Conformity can be found here.

GDPR’s main principle is that users own their personal data, and the companies have the obligation to make the right steps to facilitate the users’ rights:
to know what personal data companies collect, how they store this info and for how long
to know if the personal data is shared with third parties
to get the personal data (data portability)
to delete the personal data
to correct the personal data

TERMS USED IN THIS DOCUMENT: WE, USERS, THIRD PARTIES.
Way2enjoy is the provider of the service, referred sometimes as we.
By users we understand all the users of our tools and service, and also, the visitors of our site that compresses images through our online image compressor.
Visitors are those who browse the web pages of Way2enjoy. The logged in visitors are users of our service because they previously signed-up for a Way2enjoy account.
Customers are the users that purchased paid plans.
Third parties are other companies and the services they provide us.

1. WHAT PERSONAL DATA WE COLLECT AND HOW WE COLLECT IT

From the users of our WordPress plugin and from those who use our API tools, we directly collect the following data: IPs, emails (from the users that sign-up for our service using the WP plugin), user’s API key, number of images and PDF files, names of images and PDF files, WordPress CMS version, PHP version, optimization details (date, file size, size improvement percent).

We use a feature called Tawk for helping the users of our Way2enjoy plugin for WordPress. This feature is made by Tawk, a third party service we use for customer support. Through this feature we gather the following personal data: IPs, API key, WordPress CMS version. The feature delivers help articles and a contact us form.

We also added the Tawk feature to our site (Way2enjoy.com and sub-domains). It collects: page visits, IP, browser, consulted help articles. This info helps us understand the issues of our users.

From the unlogged visitors of our site http://Way2enjoy.com, we collect the following data: IPs, location, browser type, visited pages.

When the visitors of our site sign-up for a Way2enjoy account, we collect their emails and store the new generated API keys.

When images are optimized via our online compressor, we store them for two hours, together with the optimization details. After that, we delete the images, but we keep the info for 1 days.


We also keep the personal data used in the financial transactions. The invoice details as payment email, amount of money, name of the customer, company, and payment system, are not completely under the GDPR law, but due to the fiscal policy we need to store them for 10 years. Our customers cannot ask us to delete the payment details as we don’t have the right to do so.
