In order to make a valid purchase agreement and make a purchase, you are required to provide us with your personal data. The establishment of your user account within the Website is also considered to be an agreement, when the conditions are agreed upon. Without providing the required personal data, you cannot create your user account.
- Compliance with legal obligations. In particular, with regard to invoicing and administration, your personal data is processed to meet legal obligations in relation to tax and other legal regulations.
- Consent. In some cases, we process your personal data based on your own consent. This includes, in particular, the consent to sending newsletters and related marketing communications. You may at any time withdraw your consent in accordance with the procedure outlined in this Policy. The non-granting or revocation of consent is not relevant to the processing of your personal data under different legal basis.
- Legitimate interests of flexisander. We are also authorized to process your personal data for the purposes of our legitimate interests. This is especially the case of our direct marketing or the security of our Website.

HOW LONG ARE YOUR PERSONAL DATA STORED:
We process and store your personal data only for the period strictly necessary for the above purposes. If personal data are processed on the basis of your consent, for the period of your consent (usually 5 years), unless your consent to the processing of personal data is withdrawn.

We will process the personal data related to your registration and user account, including the data contained therein, in order to manage your account and send offers of our goods and services until you cancel it.
We may continue to process your personal data after the termination of the contract based on our legitimate interest, i.e. to protect our legal claims, for as long as necessary, but no longer than 3 years, unless a special legal regulation stipulates a longer period.
At the same time, we would like to point out that your personal data is retained in cases where legal regulation requires it, and only for the period prescribed by these laws (especially archiving deadlines for accounting and tax documents).
HOW ARE YOUR PERSONAL DATA SECURED:
All personal data that you provide and which we process are secured by standard procedures and technologies.

WHAT KIND OF RIGHTS DO YOU HAVE WITH RESPECT TO PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA?
In connection with personal data processing, you have the rights listed below that you may exercise at any time under the terms stipulated in Articles 15 through 21 of the GDPR.
These include:
The right to withdraw the consent. In case of processing based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw at any time the page about your personal information that is available upon login here. Withdrawal of consent is without prejudice to the lawfulness of the processing of your personal data prior to such withdrawal. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the processing of your personal data on the basis of any different legal basis, in particular in connection with the processing necessary for performance of the contract or fulfilment of a legal obligation.
The right to access personal data. In accordance with Article 15 of the GDPR, you have the right to receive confirmation of whether and what personal data are processed by flexisander and gain access to these personal data, including information about the purpose of the processing, categories of personal data, recipients, retention periods, personal data sources, if they have not been obtained directly from you, and whether automated decision making, including profiling takes place.
The right to rectify inaccurate data or complete incomplete data. You have the right to ask flexisander to correct your personal data if it is inaccurate or to complete it if it is incomplete. You may make a correction or complete your personal data through your user account on our Website if you are registered.
The right to erasure / the right to be forgotten. If you ask for erasure, flexisander will erase your personal data if: (i) they are no longer needed for the purposes for which they have been collected or otherwise processed; (ii) the processing is unlawful; (iii) you raise objections to the processing and there are no prevailing legitimate reasons for the processing of your personal data; or (iv) flexisander is required to erase the data under legal regulations. Flexisanderwill not comply with your request if any of the circumstances under Article 17 (3) of the GDPR prevents it from doing so.
The right to restriction of personal data processing. You have the right to restrict the processing of your personal data by flexisander if: a) you deny the accuracy of your personal data (for as long as the accuracy is verified), b) the processing is unlawful and you request for the restriction of the use of your personal data instead of the deletion; c) you will need the data to determine, exercise or defend legal claims, even if flexisander will no longer need it for further processing; or d) if you object to processing of personal data for the purposes of our legitimate interests (especially in the context of direct marketing).
The right to portability of personal data. If you want flexisander to transfer your personal data that flexisander processes based on your consent or data that are necessary for the performance of the contract to a third entity, you may exercise your right to data portability. If the exercise would adversely affect rights and freedoms of other persons, flexisander will not be able to comply with your request.
The right to object. You have the right to raise an objection to the processing of personal data that are processed for the purposes of performing a public service task or in the exercise of public authority or for the purposes of protecting flexisander's legitimate interests. If flexisander does not prove that there is a serious legitimate reason for the processing which takes precedence over the interest or rights and freedoms of the customer, flexisander will terminate the processing based on the objection without undue delay.
Automated individual decisions. You have the right not to be the subject of a decision based solely on automated processing, including creating profiles that have legal effects for you or will have a similar effect, unless one of the legal exceptions applies.
The right to file a complaint. You have the right at any time to file a complaint with the Supervisory Authority, which is the Office for Personal Data Protection (www.uoou.cz) in Czech Republic, regarding the processing of your personal data.
In the event of repeated or apparently unjustified requests for the exercise of the above rights, flexisander is entitled to charge an appropriate fee for the exercise of the right, or to refuse its exercise. We would inform you about the procedure in advance.
Flexisander reserves its right to verify the identity of the person requesting the exercise of rights in accordance with Article 12 (6) of the GDPR.
