Your data when making a purchase

By purchasing a product on the AP Mastering website you do the following:

  • Allow a secure third party to handle the transaction, including all tax and invoicing
  • Allow all of the personal data you enter as part of the transaction to be stored on this third party's secure servers

AP Mastering specifically uses the provider Paddle. Since Paddle is a merchant of record, all issues concerning the transaction, such as invoicing, credit cards, paypal etc is handled by, and the responsibility of, Paddle. Your legal data rights may be exercised in relation to your personal data stored at Paddle directly with them. AP Mastering has access to personal data via logging into Paddle's system and viewing customer transactions.
