Information Gathering and Processing

We gather diverse types of information, encompassing both personally identifiable data (PID) and non-personal data. PID may comprise your name, email address, telephone number, and other contact particulars that you voluntarily furnish while utilizing our services or engaging with our site.

  • To dispatch periodic updates, promotional materials, and crucial notifications, subject to your consent where legally mandated.
  • To ensure adherence to our legal responsibilities and protect our legitimate business interests.

All processing of personal data is executed in compliance with the legal provisions stipulated by applicable data protection legislation. We process your data only when a legal basis is firmly established, such as your explicit consent, the necessity to fulfill a contract, compliance with a legal obligation, or for our legitimate interests, provided these do not override your fundamental rights and freedoms.

The primary objective behind collecting your personal data is to ensure you receive the highest quality service experience. Your personal data is instrumental in:

  • Facilitating communication with you concerning inquiries, support requests, and service updates.
  • Processing transactions and managing any accounts you may establish with us.
  • Implementing robust security protocols to safeguard our website and guarantee secure interactions.
  • Analyzing user behavior and preferences to continuously refine our service offerings.
  • Adhering to our legal and regulatory obligations through the secure retention of your data.

We categorically do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your personally identifiable information to any third party without your explicit consent, except when necessary to fulfill our contractual commitments, to comply with legitimate legal demands, or where such disclosure is mandated by law.

All data processing activities are executed with the utmost diligence and in strict observance of current data protection legislation. Security, privacy, and transparency form the bedrock of our methodology, assuring that your personal information is handled responsibly and equitably.

Accessing, Amending, and Erasing Your Personal Information

We acknowledge your inherent rights regarding your personal data and endeavor to provide you with complete autonomy over your information. In alignment with applicable data protection statutes, you are entitled to:

  • Access Your Information: You may request access to the personal information we maintain about you. Upon receiving your request, we will furnish you with a copy of your data in a widely used and machine-readable format.
  • Correct Your Information: Should you believe that any information we hold is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request its correction or amendment to ensure its precision.
  • Delete Your Information: Under specific circumstances, you are entitled to request the deletion of your personal data. Please note that in certain instances, retaining particular information may be essential for us to comply with legal obligations or legitimate business interests, and we will apprise you of any such exceptions.
  • Restrict Processing: Where appropriate, you have the right to limit how we process your data under defined conditions.
  • Object to Processing: You may also object to the processing of your personal data when it is based on our legitimate interests or for direct marketing purposes.

To exercise any of these rights, please submit a formal request through our designated communication channels. Upon receipt of a request, we will verify your identity and proceed with the appropriate actions within the legally stipulated timeframe.

Data Retention and Storage

We retain your personal data only for the duration necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was originally collected, including compliance with any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. The specific retention period is contingent upon various factors, such as the nature of the data, the objective of its processing, and the legal obligations binding us.

Once the retention period lapses, your personal data will be securely expunged, anonymized, or aggregated in a manner that renders it no longer attributable to you. This procedure helps us mitigate potential risks while ensuring we meet our obligations under prevailing legislation.

Security Protocols

The safeguarding of your personal information stands as one of our foremost priorities. We implement an array of administrative, technical, and physical security measures meticulously designed to shield your data from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. These protective measures include, but are not limited to:

  • Encryption of data during transmission via secure protocols (SSL/TLS) and while it resides on our servers.
  • Regular surveillance and rigorous testing of our security systems to promptly identify and rectify vulnerabilities.
  • Strict access controls and authentication mechanisms to ensure that only authorized personnel can access your personal data.
  • Robust backup procedures to guarantee data integrity even in the event of technical failure or disaster.

Notwithstanding these comprehensive security measures, please be advised that no method of data transmission over the Internet or electronic storage can guarantee absolute security. Consequently, while we strive diligently to protect your personal data, we cannot vouch for its infallible security.

Third-Party Access and Disclosures

We may enlist reputable third-party service providers to assist in delivering our services or to execute business functions on our behalf. These third parties are bound by contractual agreements to protect your personal data and are permitted to use your data solely in accordance with our directives and the applicable data protection legislation.

In situations where the disclosure of personal data is legally mandated or necessary to protect our rights, property, or the safety of our users or others, we reserve the prerogative to share relevant information with the appropriate authorities. We undertake all requisite steps to ensure that any third-party access to your personal data is rigorously controlled and adheres to stringent standards.

Our Privacy Policy undergoes regular review and revision to maintain ongoing compliance with new regulations and to address evolving concerns regarding the protection of personal data. When modifications are implemented, we will update the effective date, indicated by 14.10.2025, to reflect these changes.

We encourage you to periodically consult this policy to remain apprised of how we are safeguarding your personal data. Your continued engagement with our website subsequent to such changes will signify your acceptance of those modifications.
