  1. SOURCE OF PERSONAL DATA

 

We process personal data that we obtain directly from you. We obtain your personal data by filling in and submitting a form on our website. We may also obtain your personal data in other ways – for example, by you providing it to us by email, telephone, during a video call, via social media or in a face-to-face meeting.

 

  • CATEGORIES OF PERSONAL DATA AND THE REQUIREMENT TO PROVIDE THEM

 

  1. In particular, we process the following common personal data about you to the extent necessary: name and surname, registration number, VAT number, residential address, registered office address, payment details, telephone number, e-mail address, identifier of other forms of distance communication, IP address, information about the products or services you have ordered, as well as information that you provide to us in the course of our cooperation (data relating to your marital status, personal and property status, etc.). If you provide us with a reference and at the same time provide us with a photograph or video recording of yourself, we also process personal data about you consisting of the photograph or video recording provided.

 

  1. The provision of the categories of ordinary personal data referred to in the first sentence of the preceding paragraph is necessary for mutual communication or for the conclusion and performance of a contract; in the absence of such provision, it will not be possible to communicate with each other or to conclude and perform a contract. In cases where the processing of personal data is based on your consent, it is entirely up to your decision whether or not to provide us with your personal data.

 

  1. We only process special categories of personal data (sensitive data) about you if you voluntarily disclose this data to us in the course of our cooperation and only with your consent. We do not require this personal data from you and have no interest in processing it. It is therefore up to you whether you choose to provide us with this data. This includes personal data that reveals racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, trade union membership, health, sex life or sexual orientation.

 

 

  1. PURPOSES AND DURATION OF PROCESSING

 

  1. PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA FOR THE PURPOSE OF CONCLUDING AND FULFILLING A CONTRACT

 

  1. We process your personal data for the purposes of concluding a contract and fulfilling the contract concluded between us (mutual communication before and after the conclusion of the contract, delivery of the ordered product or service, making payment). For this purpose, we process your ordinary personal data referred to in Article III(1) above as well as the special categories of personal data (sensitive data) referred to in Article III(3) above.

 

  1. The legal title (authorisation) for the processing of personal data is the performance of a contract concluded between us and the implementation of measures taken prior to the conclusion of the contract at your request.

 

  1. For this purpose, we process your personal data for the duration of the contractual relationship between us and, after the end of the contractual relationship, we further process some of your personal data for the purpose of fulfilling our legal obligations or for legitimate interest purposes (see points B to D below).

 

  1. PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA FOR THE PURPOSES OF COMPLIANCE WITH LEGAL OBLIGATIONS

 

  1. We also process personal data for the purpose of fulfilling legal obligations to which we are subject (e.g. legal obligations in the field of taxation). For this purpose, we process the following personal data: your name and surname, ID number, VAT number, home address, registered office address, payment details and information about the products or services you have ordered.

 

  1. The legal title (authorisation) for the processing of personal data is therefore the fulfilment of a legal obligation to which we are subject.

 

  1. For this purpose, we process your personal data for the period of time specified by generally binding legal regulations.

 

  1. PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES

 

  1. We also process your personal data for direct marketing purposes (sending commercial communications, newsletters, etc.). For this purpose, we process the following personal data: name and surname, residential address, registered office address, telephone number, e-mail address and information about the products or services you have ordered.

 

  1. If you are our customer, our legitimate interest is the legal title (justification) for such processing of personal data, as we reasonably assume that you are interested in our information and news.

 

  1. You can stop receiving commercial communications at any time by simply clicking on the relevant link in each email sent. Otherwise, we will process your personal data for this purpose for a period of 5 years from your last order for our products or services.

 

 

  1. PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA FOR THE PURPOSES OF PROTECTING RIGHTS AND ENFORCING CLAIMS

 

  1. We also process personal data for the purpose of protecting our rights and enforcing legal claims (in particular, from contracts concluded or damages caused). For this purpose, we process your personal data from concluded contracts and our communications with each other.  

 

  1. The legal title (authorisation) for the processing of personal data is our legitimate interest.

 

  1. For this purpose, we process your personal data for the duration of the contractual relationship and for 5 years after its termination, or for 5 years after our last contact if no contract has been concluded.

 

  1. PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA ON THE BASIS OF YOUR CONSENT

 

  1. If you are not our customer, we will only send you commercial communications, newsletters, etc. based on your consent. We will also only send you information about third party products or services on the basis of your consent. We also need your consent to process your personal data for the purpose of publishing your testimonial on our website or social media.

 

  1. Before you give your consent, we will inform you which personal data we will process on the basis of your consent and to which specific purpose of processing your consent will apply.

 

  1. You can withdraw your consent at any time, e.g. by clicking on the relevant link in each email sent. However, if we also process your personal data on the basis of other legal titles listed under A to D above, we will continue to process it on the basis of this respective title after you have withdrawn your consent.

 

  1. AUTOMATED DECISION-MAKING, INCLUDING PROFILING

 

We do not engage in automated individual decision-making, including profiling, within the meaning of Article 22 of the GDPR. We carry out such processing on the basis of your explicit consent.

You have the right to be informed whether or not your personal data is being processed and, if it is, you have the right to access your personal data and to receive details of the processing of your personal data.

 

  1. Right to rectification or completion of personal data (Article 16 GDPR)

You have the right to request that we correct inaccurate personal data concerning you and, taking into account the purposes of the processing, you also have the right to have incomplete personal data completed.

 

 

  1. Right to erasure of personal data (Article 17 GDPR)

If the conditions set out in Article 18 GDPR are met, you have the right to have us restrict the processing of your personal data.

Where the processing of your personal data is carried out by automated means and is based on consent or contract, you have the right to obtain the personal data relating to you in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and to transmit it to another controller.
