The purposes for which I process your personal data

By subscribing to the newsletter, you provide me with your email address and name via the newsletter’s subscription form. Providing data is voluntary but necessary to subscribe to the newsletter.

These data are used to send you the newsletter, and the legal basis for their processing is your consent. The data will be processed for the newsletter’s duration unless you unsubscribe earlier, which will delete your data from the database.

Orders and issuing VAT invoices

When ordering any product on the website, you provide me with the data necessary to process the order (name and surname, billing address, email address, telephone number). Providing data is voluntary but necessary to place an order.

The data provided to me in connection with the order are processed to fulfill the order, issue an invoice, include it in the accounting documentation, and be used for archival and statistical purposes.

Data about orders will be processed for the time necessary to perform the order until the expiry of the limitation period for claims under the contract. After this deadline, the data may still be processed by me for statistical purposes. I am obliged to keep invoices for 5 years from the end of the tax year in which the VAT invoice was issued.

In the case of data provided for the purpose of the contract, you cannot object to data processing and request the deletion of data until the expiry of the limitation period for claims under the contract.

Complaints and withdrawal from the contract

By submitting a complaint or withdrawing from the contract, you provide me with the personal data in your statement (name and surname, address, telephone number, email address, and possibly bank account number).

Providing this data is voluntary, but necessary to submit a complaint or withdraw from the contract. The data provided to me in connection with submitting a complaint or withdrawal from the contract are used to implement the complaint procedure or the procedure for withdrawing from the contract.

In this case, your data is processed to contact you. The basis for data processing is your consent. You have the right to request a history of correspondence, and you may request its removal unless the preservation of the correspondence is justified by my interest (e.g., protection against claims).
