What information about users do the Services collect and how do they use it?

Services limit the collection and use of information about their users to the necessary minimum required to provide services to them at the desired level, pursuant to art. 18 of the Act on the provision of electronic services. In particular, when collecting personal data, we distinguish those among which the provision is actually necessary to provide the service electronically. Providing other personal data (i.e. data that is not necessary to provide the service electronically) is not mandatory, it is the discretion of the data subject, and their processing by BEROTEX depends on his consent.

We emphasize that only in some cases, e.g. when subscribing to free newsletters, surveys or order forms, we collect more detailed information about users, such as e-mail addresses or other personal data (see also the answer to the next question).

We ensure that all personal data, if collected as part of the Services, are mainly used to fulfill BEROTEX’s obligations to customers. This information is not shared with third parties, unless:

• after obtaining the prior explicit consent of the persons concerned to do so

or

• if the obligation to provide these data results (will result) from legal provisions.

We also remind you that BEROTEX as the administrator of personal data within the meaning of the Personal Data Protection Act may contractually entrust the processing of data collected as part of the Services to other entities pursuant to art. 31 abovementioned Act.

How does BEROTEX use information from order forms, free newsletters, other forms and surveys carried out on the Sites?

The Website includes order forms that allow customers to place orders for products and services offered by BEROTEX. The data collected in this way is mainly used to fulfill their obligations (to supplement this statement, read also the answer to the previous question).

In particular, subscribing to electronic and free newsletters issued by BEROTEX requires providing an email address in the appropriate form. This field is mandatory. The data obtained in the above manner is added to the e-mailing list. The e-mail address is necessary to be able to send the reader the newsletter he ordered.

Customer contact information is also used to contact them when necessary (e.g. when order confirmation is needed). At any time, Website users who have subscribed to the newsletter have the option of unsubscribing; see below the answer to the question: “How to opt out of our selected services?”.

Other information is used to determine the profile of people using websites and subscribing to newsletters and allow you to better tailor the content of the Website and newsletters to the needs of people using this form of information.
