Who we are
The European Union General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) went into effect May 25th, 2018 and is designed to harmonize data privacy laws across Europe, to protect and empower all EU citizens data privacy and to reshape the way organizations across the region approach data privacy. The goal is to give EU citizens more control over their data by regulating the way companies store and process the personal data they collect. The GDPR will now apply to all companies processing data of data subjects living in the EU, whether the company is operating inside the EU or not. 2-N-1 Grips is fully committed to this new regulation and will work to ensure compliance with the GDPR.
If you are a citizen of the EU and want to know what data we may have on file for you, please contact lmills@bpaa.com

Who we share your data with
We only store names and contact info of BBIA members in our website database .
We use Google Analytics with our website. This tool helps us to see how many visitors our websites receive, how long users stay, what kind of devices they are using to view the site, which pages are viewed the most and so on. Although we have access to these analytics, Google sends the data collected from users’ devices anonymously. In other words, we know how our sites are being used, but not who the users are.
How long we retain your data
On the occasion that we are open to comments, if you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
