Privacy & Cookie Policy

Last updated: August 2026

This policy explains how Print Buyer (“we”, “us”) collects, uses, and protects personal data when you visit print-buyer.com or use our client portal. We are committed to handling personal data in line with the UK GDPR, the EU GDPR, Canada’s PIPEDA, and applicable United States state privacy laws.

Who we are

Print Buyer is a print and media buying intermediary that sources and manages vendors on behalf of its clients. The data controller responsible for your personal data is:

PocketMaps, LLC, trading as Print Buyer
245 N Highland Avenue, NE, STE 230-433
Atlanta, GA 30307, USA

For any privacy request, you can reach us through your usual Print Buyer contact.

What we collect

Depending on how you interact with us, we may process:

  • Account data — name, email address, and password (stored encrypted) for portal users.
  • Client & project data — company details and the specifications of print and media jobs you ask us to manage.
  • Vendor data — business contact details of printers and suppliers in our network.
  • Communications — the content of emails, and (where applicable) recordings, transcripts, and notes of phone calls made or received through our system.
  • Technical data — limited information such as your session and, only with your consent, analytics about how the site is used.

How and why we use it

We use personal data to:

  • provide the portal and manage secure sign-in;
  • request, compare, and manage vendor quotes on behalf of clients;
  • communicate with clients and vendors and keep an accurate record of those exchanges;
  • maintain the security and integrity of our systems; and
  • meet our legal and regulatory obligations.

Our lawful bases (under the UK/EU GDPR) are the performance of a contract, our legitimate interests in running a print procurement service, your consent (for non-essential cookies), and compliance with legal obligations.

Our use of artificial intelligence

We use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to help us work efficiently — for example, to transcribe phone calls and to generate short summaries, notes, and follow-up tasks from communications. This helps ensure nothing is missed when we manage your work.

AI-generated summaries are used to support our team and are always reviewed by a person before any decision is acted on — we do not make solely automated decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects about you. Communications processed this way are handled with the same confidentiality as all other data covered by this policy.

Cookies

We use a small number of strictly necessary cookies that keep the portal secure and remember your signed-in session. These are required for the service to work and cannot be switched off.

With your consent, we may also use analytics cookies to understand how the site is used so we can improve it. When you first visit, we ask whether you accept these; you can choose “Essential only” to decline. We do not load non-essential cookies until you have accepted them. You can change your mind at any time by clearing the cookies stored by this site in your browser.

Sharing and international transfers

We do not sell personal data. We share it only with trusted service providers who help us operate — such as our hosting, email delivery, and (where used) telephony and AI processing providers — who act on our instructions. Because we operate across North America, Europe, and the Caribbean, data may be transferred internationally; where it is, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses.

How long we keep it

We keep personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes above and to meet our legal and business record-keeping obligations, after which it is securely deleted or anonymised.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you have rights over your personal data. Under the UK and EU GDPR these include the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of your data, to object to processing, and to data portability. Canadian residents have rights under PIPEDA, and residents of certain US states have rights to access and delete their data and to opt out of its sale (we do not sell data). To exercise any right, contact us through your usual Print Buyer contact and we will respond within the time required by law.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “last updated” date above.
