Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how BINOKU (“we”, “us”, “our”) collects, uses, and protects your personal information when you visit or make a purchase from binoku.com (the “Site”). We are the data controller responsible for your personal data.

1. Our commitment to your discretion

We understand the personal nature of our products and are committed to protecting your privacy at every step:

Plain, neutral packaging — every order ships in an unmarked box with no reference to BINOKU or the contents inside.
Discreet billing — your card statement shows a neutral merchant descriptor, never a product name.
No unsolicited contact — we only email you if you subscribe or place an order, and every email includes a clear unsubscribe link.
Data minimisation — we collect only the information we genuinely need, and nothing more.

2. Information we collect

We collect the following categories of personal data:

Identity data — name and username (if you create an account).
Contact data — email address, shipping address, and telephone number (for delivery).
Order data — products purchased, order history, and delivery preferences.
Financial data — payment details, processed securely by our payment provider (PayPal). We never store your full card number.
Technical data — IP address, browser type and version, device type, operating system, and time zone.
Usage data — pages visited, products viewed, and how you interact with the Site.
Marketing data — your subscription preferences and engagement with our emails.

3. How we collect your information

We collect information when you:

Create an account or place an order.
Subscribe to our newsletter.
Contact our customer support team.
Browse the Site (via cookies and similar technologies).

4. Legal basis for processing (GDPR)

We process your personal data on the following legal grounds:

Contract — to fulfil your order and provide the services you have purchased.
Consent — to send you marketing emails (you may withdraw at any time).

Security and fraud prevention — protect the Site and our customers.

6. Cookies and similar technologies

Cookies are small files placed on your device when you visit the Site. We use the following types:

Strictly necessary cookies — essential for the Site to function, such as keeping your cart and completing checkout. These cannot be disabled.
Functional cookies — remember your preferences and language settings.
Analytics cookies — help us understand how visitors use the Site (e.g. Google Analytics) in aggregate.
Marketing cookies — track visits for advertising and personalisation.

You can manage or disable cookies through our cookie banner or your browser settings at any time. Disabling certain cookies may affect Site functionality.

7. How we share your information

We never sell your personal information. We share data only with trusted service providers, and only to the extent necessary to operate our business:

Payment processors (PayPal) — to process transactions securely.
Shipping carriers — to deliver your order.
Email service providers — to send order confirmations and (with your consent) marketing emails.
Analytics providers (Google) — to understand Site usage in aggregate.
Professional advisers (accountants, lawyers) — where legally required.

These providers are contractually bound to protect your data and use it only for the services we engage them for.

8. International data transfers

Some of our service providers may process data outside your country of residence. Where this occurs, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your data in line with applicable law.

9. Data retention

We retain your personal data only as long as necessary:

Order records — retained for the period required by tax and accounting law (typically 6–7 years).
Account data — retained until you delete your account or request deletion.
Marketing subscriptions — retained until you unsubscribe.
Analytics data — retained in anonymised or aggregated form.

10. Your rights (GDPR & CCPA)

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

Access — request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
Rectification — correct inaccurate or incomplete information.
Erasure — request deletion of your data (“right to be forgotten”).
Restriction — limit how we process your data.
Portability — receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format.
Objection — object to processing based on legitimate interests.
Withdraw consent — opt out of marketing at any time.
Lodge a complaint — with your local data protection authority if you believe we have not handled your data lawfully.

To exercise any of these rights, email support@binoku.com. We will respond within 30 days. We may ask you to verify your identity before acting on a request.

11. Age restriction

Our products are intended for adults aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If we learn that a minor has provided us with personal data, we delete it promptly.

12. Data security

We use industry-standard safeguards to protect your information, including SSL/TLS encryption, secure payment gateways, restricted access controls, and regular security reviews. While no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, we work continuously to protect your data.

13. Automated decision-making

We do not use automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects concerning you.

14. Third-party links

Our Site may contain links to third-party websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites, and we encourage you to review their policies before providing any information.

15. Changes to this policy
