Data for marketing
Personalized emails and push notifications
We regularly have offers, special promotions, and news that we want to share with you. We would like to share these via email or push notifications. If you have an account with us and have made one or more sales, we will regularly send you emails and/or push notifications with suggestions and information about our offers and services, unless you have indicated that you do not want to receive them. If you have given us permission, we may also send you other information, such as daily deals, general contests, or personal recommendations. These personal recommendations will be based on your activities and visit history up to a maximum of 2 years ago. We do this to make the content of such messages more interesting for you. If you don't want this, you can unsubscribe immediately.
Personalized advertisements
We, our partners, and media agencies may show you ads on Valyuu.com and other websites. Your surfing, search, and purchase behavior are collected based on cookies, your IP address, and the advertisement number linked to the device you are using to surf. We do this only if you have given permission to place cookies. Cookies have a limited retention period, and that period differs per cookie. Learn more about cookies in the Cookie Policy of Valyuu.
Data from customer surveys
Of course, we will always work on improving our services. For this reason, we may use your customer ID and email address to invite you to participate in an optional customer or market survey. We often conduct these surveys ourselves, but sometimes we use external specialized partners. By participating in these surveys, you help us improve our service and product. Your data linked to the results of the customer or market survey will be kept until the survey is finalized. This naturally varies per survey.
Data for reviews & questions and answer

When you post a review, you can choose whether your personal data or name will be visible to other visitors. You can also indicate whether we can contact you about your review.
Given the importance of as many reviews as possible, we keep them until you ask us to remove the review. An exception is when a review does not meet the review requirements and must be removed.
Data to prevent fraud
