At MyThings, we are committed to transparency about how we collect and use data. In order to provide our platform as a free service, we collect certain anonymized information about the products you purchase. The information we gather includes details such as the product make, model, purchase value, and acquisition method.

How We Protect Your Privacy

Rest assured, we take your privacy seriously. We remove all personally identifiable information (PII), including serial numbers and any personal details, before sharing any data. Only anonymized data is shared with third parties, ensuring that it cannot be traced back to you.

Why We Collect and Share Data

Our platform is funded through the sharing of anonymized data with third-party partners. These third parties may use this data for market research, analytics, or other purposes, but they will never have access to personal information. By selling this anonymized data, we are able to continue offering MyThings as a free service to all users.

Security Measures

The security of your anonymized data is important to us. We store all collected data securely on AWS infrastructure, following best-practice security measures throughout our development and operational processes to protect against unauthorized access.

No Opt-Out, but We’re Here to Help

While we do not provide an option to opt-out of data collection or sharing, we are transparent about how we use this data to support our platform’s sustainability. If you have any questions or concerns regarding the data we collect, please feel free to contact us via email at privacy@mythings.co.nz. We are happy to assist and address any inquiries you may have.
