The conclusion and performance of contracts with natural persons and legal entities

For the purpose of concluding and performing contracts, we will process the data that you provide at the time of concluding the contract, as well as the data we receive during the performance of the contract, including information about the goods purchased and payment-related data. If you do not provide your personal data, we will not be able to identify you and to conclude an agreement with you.

The basis for the processing of personal data will be the performance of a contract or the actions performed before the conclusion of the contract upon your request.

For existing customers (both natural persons and legal entities) who have provided their e-mail address or telephone number, the Company will be able to provide information about goods and services, news, promotions, events, or other direct marketing information.

The processing of your personal data will be based on the expression of your free will, i.e., your consent, but in certain cases a legal act may become the basis for the continued retention of a complaint.

E-mail communication

According to the Regulation, the contents of e-mail communication are considered as personal data, even when the correspondence is conducted by the employees of legal entities. In this regard, the contents of electronic communication and e-mail addresses are subject to the mandatory rules of personal data processing provided for by the Regulation.

The processing of your personal data will be based on the expression of your free will, i.e., your consent, for e-mail communication and provision of certain personal data therein. In addition, the processing may also be based on the performance of a contract and statutory obligations.

Your e-mail address, correspondence contents and related data will be processed in accordance with the principle of proportionality. The data will be visible in particular to the person with whom you are communicating directly by e-mail. However, in some cases, the contents of your correspondence may be visible to other employees, e.g., in cases of internal administration, investigation of possible infringements of legislation or internal rules, during substitutions and related events and in similar situations.
