Personal data scope and purposes of processing

We process personal data that you entrust to us for the following reasons:

  • provision of services, contract fulfilment

your personal data in the scope of: e-mail, name, surname, phone, address we necessarily need to fulfill the contract

  • bookkeeping

If you are a customer, we necessarily need your personal data to issue and record tax documents

  • marketing – for example sending newsletters

We use your personal data (email and name), gender, what you click on in the email and when you open it most often for the purpose of direct marketing – sending you commercial messages. If you are a customer of mine, we do so out of legitimate interest, as we reasonably assume that you are interested in our newsletters, for a period of 5 years from your last order. If you are not our customer, we only send you newsletters on the basis of your consent, for a period of 5 years from the date of consent. In both cases, you can withdraw this consent by using the unsubscribe link in any email sent to you.

  • advanced consent-based marketing

Only with your consent, we may also send you inspiring offers from third parties or use your email address for e.g. remarketing and ad targeting on Facebook, for a period of 5 years after you have given your consent. This consent can of course be revoked at any time via our contact details.

  • photo documentation – live events

We retain your personal data for the duration of limitation periods, unless the law provides for a longer retention period or we have indicated otherwise in specific cases.

Forwarding of personal data to third parties

Your personal data can be accessed by our employees. For specific processing operations that we are unable to provide ourselves, we use the services and applications of processors who are better able to protect the data than we are and who specialise in the processing in question.

They are providers of the following platforms: Websupport, WordPress, Facebook, Google. It is possible that in the future we may decide to use other applications or processors to facilitate and improve the quality of processing.

We promise you that in such a case, we will place at least the same demands on the security and quality of the processing as we do on ourselves when selecting a processor.

Data transfer outside the European Union

All personal data processing operations will be carried out in the EU.

Your rights in relation to the personal data privacy

You have many rights in relation to data protection. If you would like to exercise any of these rights, please contact us by email: info(at)envirocentrum(.)sk. You have the right to information, which is already fulfilled by this personal data processing policy page. Thanks to the right of access, you can ask us at any time and we will document within 30 days what personal data we are processing and why. If something changes with you or you find that your personal data is outdated or incomplete, you have the right to have your personal data completed and amended.

Right to restriction of processing

If you would like to take your personal data and transfer it to someone else, we will follow the same procedure as for exercising your right of access – except that we will supply the information to you in machine-readable form. We need at least 30 days to do this.

Right to erasure (to be forgotten)

Your other right is the right to erasure (to be forgotten). We don’t want to forget you, but if you wish, you have the right to do so. In this case, we will delete all your personal data that we hold on/off our system and the system of all subcontractors and backups. We will need 30 days to secure the right to erasure. In some cases, we are bound by a legal obligation and, for example, must keep records of tax documents issued for the statutory period. In this case, we will erase all such personal data that is not bound by another law. We will inform you by email when the deletion has been completed.

Complaint at the Data Protection Authority

If you feel that we are not treating your data in accordance with the law, you have the right to contact the Data Protection Authority at any time with your complaint. We would be very pleased if you would inform us of this suspicion first so that we can do something about it and correct any errors.

Secrecy

Please be assured that our associates who will process your personal data are obliged to maintain confidentiality of personal data and security measures, the disclosure of which would jeopardize the security of your personal data. This confidentiality shall continue even after the termination of the contractual relationship with them. Your personal data will not be released to any other third party without your consent.

Unsubscribe from newsletters and commercial communications

Emails with inspiration, articles or products and services are sent to you as long as you are a customer of ours based on our legitimate interest. If you are not yet our customer, we only send them to you on the basis of your consent.

In both cases, you can stop receiving our emails by pressing the unsubscribe link in each email sent.
