We use the following criteria to determine the retention periods of your personal data: (a) the type and sensitivity of your personal data; (b) the reasons for which we collect and process your personal data; (c) the length of time we have an ongoing relationship with you and provide you with access to our Site and/or Services; (d) applicable legal requirements.

We store your personal data for as long as it is necessary to provide you with our Services on the basis of a separate contract concluded between us. If your personal data is processed on the basis of applicable laws, information about you will be processed for the period specified in these provisions. If you have consented to the processing of your personal data for the marketing and advertising purposes, your personal data will be processed by us for no longer than 10 years, unless you withdraw your consent before the expiry of this period. In other cases, your personal data will be processed until you withdraw your consent or until we no longer need to process your personal data. If your personal data is processed in connection with the protection of our claims, these data will be stored until all claims are time-barred.

If you do not wish to receive marketing and advertising information from us, we remind you that you can withdraw your consent at any time directly from the unsubscribe link contained in any electronic marketing message we send to you. If you do so, we will promptly update our databases and take all reasonable steps to promptly comply with your request. You can also contact us to the following e-mail: [email protected] or via the contact form available on our Site.

Note, however, that we may retain some of your personal data which are relevant to us (and delete others on a regular basis) in order to optimize the amount of personal data we hold about you. We will also retain your personal data we have collected from you if we are dealing with our legitimate interest or when it results from a legal obligation imposed on us (for example, to comply with applicable tax or accounting requirements). In addition, we cannot delete information when it is necessary to establish or defend our legal claims. In this case, the information about you will be kept for as long as it is necessary to assert or defend against these claims. Once we no longer have a legitimate interest to process your personal data, we will delete it immediately. If you have any questions about the storage of your personal data, please contact us at: [email protected] or via the contact form available on our Site.

In some instances, we may choose to anonymize your personal data instead of permanently deleting it, for example for statistical purposes. When we decide to anonymize your personal data, we guarantee that it will not be possible to associate this information directly with you.

WHAT ARE YOUR RIGHTS

You have certain rights in relation to your personal data:

  1. the right to be informed: our obligation to inform you that we process your personal data (this also applies to information on the scope, purpose and legal basis of data processing);
  2. the right of access: your right to request a copy of your personal data;
  3. the right of rectification: your right to request that we correct personal data about you if it is incomplete or inaccurate;
  4. the right to erasure (also known as the ‘right to be forgotten’): under certain circumstances, you may ask us to delete your personal data (unless the processing of your personal data is necessary on another legal basis, e.g. due to a legitimate interest of the data controller or to comply with a legal obligation; in such case, we will inform you);
  5. the right to restrict processing: your right, under certain circumstances, to ask us to suspend our processing of your personal data;
  6. the right to data portability: your right to ask us for a copy of your personal data in a common format;
  7. the right to object: your right to object to us processing your personal data.

Finally, you have the right to make a complaint at any time to the supervisory authority for data protection issues in your country of residence. We would, however, appreciate the chance to address your concerns and/or complaints before you approach the supervisory authority, so please contact us directly first.

You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data or to exercise any of the other rights unless your request is clearly unfounded or excessive. Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with your request under those circumstances.

We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity. This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. If we cannot reasonably verify your identity, we will not be able to comply with your request. We will respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it may take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made a large number of requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated as required by law.

If you wish to exercise any of the rights set out above, you may contact us at: [email protected] or via the contact form available on our Site.

INTERNATIONAL DATA TRANSFERS

In order to operate our global business, including operating our Site and providing the Services, in certain circumstances we may transfer your personal data to third countries or organizations outside the EU or the United Kingdom where the same standard of security for personal data does not apply. If you access our Site and/or use our Services or otherwise share your personal date with us, your personal data may be transferred to those third countries or organizations. Because different countries may have different data protection laws than the EU laws, we take necessary steps to ensure adequate safeguards are in place to protect your personal data, e.g. we enter into data processing agreements with our clients and customers and, where necessary, use Standard Contractual Clauses in accordance with the provisions of the GDPR.

CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY

This Privacy Policy was last updated on the date indicated above, but we suggest that you review it from time to time, as our Site and/or Services may change. We reserve the right to update or modify this Privacy Policy at any time and from time to time without prior notice. However, if we make changes that we believe will materially impact this Privacy Policy or your rights, we will promptly notify you of those changes. Your continued use of the Site and/or Services after any changes to this Privacy Policy shall indicate your agreement with the terms of such revised Privacy Policy.
