The Controller uses your personal data for the following purposes:

      1. conclusion and fulfilment of the binding agreement – throughout the duration of said agreement and for the time required to clear all settlements upon its completion (legal grounds: art. 6 section 1 b) of GDPR, abridged as “agreement fulfilment”);

      2. fulfilment of the legal responsibilities imposed upon the Controller (legal grounds: art. 6 section 1 point c), e.g.:

          a. issuing and archiving invoices and accounting documents,
          b. replying to letters and inquiries within the time and in the form established in appropriate provisions,

       3. fulfilment of the legitimate objectives of the Controller 3. (site monitoring to ensure safety, marketing of the products or services we offer, pursuance of claims) in accordance with art. 6 section 1 point f of GDPR,

       4. distribution of marketing communication and commercial information concerning the Controller, including customary contacts 4. (i.e. holiday cards, product offers, telephone conversations, cooperation offers, information about the provided services, products, events, etc.) – in such instances your personal data is processed in accordance with art. 6 section 1 points a and f of GDPR, i.e. the consent of the data subject (as long as the data subject in question expresses such consent) or the legitimate interests of the Controller.

      In order to fill out the form, the User needs to enter specific personal data. Providing personal data is strictly voluntary, but failure to provide the personal data designated as necessary makes it impossible to e.g. process the case submitted through the contact form.

Consent to electronic distribution of commercial information is strictly voluntary.

  2. for the time required by provisions to archive data, e.g. fiscal data (legal grounds: art. 6 section 1 point c of GDPR);

  3. for the time, in which the Controller may incur legal consequences for failing to fulfil a responsibility, e.g. be fined by state authorities or other business partners of the Controller (legal grounds: art. 6 section 1 point f of GDPR; abridged as “legitimate interest”);

  4. throughout the duration of the agreement (legal grounds: agreement fulfilment) and subsequently until expiration of the claims resulting from the agreement or for the duration of the Controller’s pursuance of claims or notification of appropriate authorities (legal grounds: legitimate interest of the Controller, art. 6 section 1 point f of GDPR);

  5. in scope of establishing, defending against, and pursuing claims, which includes sale of the Controller’s debts resulting from the agreement to a different entity – until expiration of claims resulting from the agreement (legal grounds: legitimate interest of the Controller, art. 6 section 1 point f of GDPR);

  6. direct marketing – for the duration of the agreement (legal grounds: legitimate interest of the Controller, art. 6 section 1 point f of GDPR);

Furthermore, the Controller may request optional data, which has no impact on conclusion of the agreement (if the Controller does not receive this data, the Controller will not be able to e.g. call the contact number, supervise fulfilment of the Agreement or offer inquiry). Providing data in order to conclude an agreement is not a statutory requirement.

In this situation, after examining your request, the Controller will not be authorised to process personal data covered by such an objection unless the Controller should demonstrate:

    2) rounds for establishment, pursuance, or defence against claims.

Consent
