VI. Privacy Policy

 

Preamble

With the aim to protect personal data in accordance with the provisions of the Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, and repealing Directive 95/46/EC (hereinafter: General Data Protection Regulation/ GDPR). The controller, as a company which, without exception, promptly and fully implements the regulations in all business sectors, particularly in those which are directly related to clients’ satisfaction and interests, hereby adopts and publishes this Privacy Policy.

 

The controller is the company BVLVL Ltd. Based in Croatia, Ribnjak 40, 10000 Zagreb, whose primary activity consists of providing variety of business services, and distribution of those services.

 

The controller’s activity is not focused on personal data nor does it imply extensive processing of natural persons’ personal data. While performing his regular business activity, the personal data which the controller encounters and processes is the data collected with consent for the purpose of informing the User of BVLVL’s services for the purposes of realising a business cooperation and providing the services.

 

VI.I. The purpose of the Privacy Policy

 

The protection of the rights and freedoms of individuals regarding personal data processing requires the introduction of a Privacy Policy with the aim of familiarising the data subjects with the manner in which their personal data will be processed in the controller’s company, as well as what their rights are and how can they be exercised.

 

This Privacy Policy therefore also ensures the transparency in relation to the functions and personal data processing and enables the data subject to familiarise himself with the rights related to data processing.

 

VI.II. The value of personal data and the responsibility to protect them

 

Personal data is any data which is related to an individual whose identity has been established or can be established (“data subject”); an individual whose identity can be established is a person who can be directly or indirectly identified, particularly with the help of identifiers such as the name, identification number, location information, online identifier or with the help of one or more factors inherent to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that individual.

 

The personal data which the controller collects and processes when performing his activity represents a professional secret. The controller implements measures of technical and organisational security which ensure the lasting confidentiality of all personal data and also encompass the prevention of unauthorised access to personal data and equipment which he uses while processing data or their unauthorised use.

 

All data on users is safeguarded strictly and is available only to employees who need the data to carry out their work. All controller’s employees are liable for adhering to safe harbour principles.

 

Particular attention must be taken when handling personal data and it can only be used in accordance with the reason for which it has been collected.

 

We only collect the personal data which has been voluntarily provided to us or for which there is another legal basis for processing.

 

VI.III. Personal data collection and processing

 

Personal data can only be collected in accordance with the legislation and ethical standards. It is permitted to process personal data only when there is a clearly defined and documented legal basis or a basis arising out of a contract, while all other personal data processing is permitted only with a clearly documented consent of the owner or his proxy.

 

Our processing of your personal data is based on the following legal grounds

 

1. Consent: We may process your personal data with your consent. In particular, we may ask for your consent to participate in promotional activities, such as to send you promotional messages (newsletter) or enable you to participate in certain Services. You have the right not to provide consent, or to withdraw it at any time. The withdrawal of your consent does not affect the lawfulness of our use of your personal data before your withdrawal. If you have granted us consent to use your personal data, we will use it only for the purposes specified in the consent declaration. Please note that to the extent our processing is based on your consent and you deny your consent or withdraw it, we may not be able to provide the service relating thereto. Besides from that, neither the initial denial nor a withdrawal will have any negative consequences for you.

 

2. Perform or enter into a contract with you:

 

We rely on this legal basis in particular in the following cases:

 

• to provide you with BVLVL’s Services, process your orders or fulfil the contract between you and BVLVL;

 

• to allow and manage your participation contests or similar promotional activities held by us; and

 

• to provide client care and support Services.

 

3. Compliance with a legal obligation: BVLVL may be obliged to process personal data to comply with our legal obligations, for example where BVLVL is required to retain data for tax law or commercial purposes.

 

4. Legitimate interests: The processing of your personal data may also be necessary for BVLVL’s legitimate interests. In particular, such cases may include the following:

 

• to conduct customer surveys to enhance your user experience;

 

• to analyze the efficiency of our business operations;

 

• to communicate with you and reply to your questions or comments submitted to us by any means;

 

• to ensure the functionality and safety of our Services;

 

• to verify your identity;

 

• to conduct internal auditing and to prevent and investigate fraud, cybersecurity threats or other improper use;

 

• to pursue or defend against legal claims.

 

Your personal data will only be processed on the above grounds after we have appropriately assessed and balanced our interests against your right to privacy.

 

The controller processes personal data solely to the extent necessary to provide the service and achieve the above-mentioned goals. When storing data, personal data is stored in the least possible number of places where it is adequately protected.

 

As the controller, we always provide you with the possibility of choice regarding the use of your data, including the possibility to decide whether you want your name to be removed from the lists used for marketing campaigns or not. We do not request you to send data in order to enable access to our websites.

 

Without your particular consent, the controller shall not transfer your personal data to unauthorised third parties, send you e-mails which are contrary to the Terms of use and you can unsubscribe from the recipient list of any e-mail at any moment.

 

The controller stores the collected personal data until the data subject withdraws the personal data storage. The data subject can withdraw his consent to further collection, processing and use of personal data at any moment and the withdrawal for the storage of personal data can be requested by writing to the company’s address or by e-mail to info@bvlvl.com.

 

When you visit our website, our web server always stores the name of your internet service provider, the website from which you visited us, the websites you browsed during the visit and the date and time of the visit. Our cookies do not contain specific personal information, so your privacy remains protected because it is not personal data, i.e., personal data collected in such a manner is not used to identify you.

 

The IP address is transferred with every request sent to the server so that the server knows where the answer has to be sent. The internet service provider (ISP) assigns an IP address to everyone when they connect to the internet. The ISP can track which IP address is assigned to individual users at any given moment. As long as the stored IP address is not deleted, theoretically, one could obtain the identity of the end-user through the ISP. That is why the controller does not store the IP addresses of the visitors but rather only uses them to recognise the session and defend from attacks. Therefore, the IP address is deleted directly after that so that the collected data is anonymous and that the identity of the end-user cannot be found out even through the intervention of the ISP.

 

This website uses cookies to enable or improve the user experience and functions offered.  In order to provide you with a better user experience and full functionality of the website, this website stores your cookies. However, if you do not want it, you can reject them, but then there is a chance that the website’s functionality will be limited.

 

Moreover, personal data is stored only if you voluntarily place it at our disposal, e.g., through the sending an inquiry through contact form, conducting surveys on social media, participating in promotional activities or to perform a contract.

 

VI. IV. The rights of data subjects

 

The rights of data subjects and their remedies are set out in detail in the relevant provisions of the GDPR (in particular Articles 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 77, 78, 79, 80 and 82 of the GDPR). The following summary sets out the most important provisions and BVLVL provides information to data subjects on their rights and remedies in relation to data processing accordingly.

 

The controller enables the exercise of the data subjects’ rights. You have the right to request, at any given moment:

 

the deletion of personal data (“the right to be forgotten”) if the processing of your personal data is no longer necessary in relation to the purpose for which it was collected or if you withdraw your consent for personal data processing or if you file a complaint regarding the processing of your personal data and prove that your legitimate interests for deleting the personal data take precedence over the controller’s legitimate interest for processing your personal data;

 

the correction of personal data if some of your personal data has changed or if you noticed an error in your collected personal data;

 

the transfer of personal data, i.e., to request the personal data which are related to you in electronic form and transfer them to a third party;

 

a complaint if you oppose the purpose for which your personal data is processed;

 

the restriction of personal data processing if you dispute the accuracy of the personal data, if you object to the deletion of personal data, instead requesting a restriction of their use; if the controller no longer needs your personal data for the purposes of the processing, but you request them for the submission, exercise or defence of your legal requests; if you have filed a complaint regarding the personal data processing.

 

You can exercise your rights electronically, without expenses, by contacting us at the e-mail address: info@bvlvl.com.

Exceptionally, in case you request that confirmation be issued to you in another form, other than the electronic one, for the purpose of transferring personal data, the controller reserves the right to charge a reasonable fee for administrative costs necessary to issue an additional copy of the personal data.

 

VI. V. Additional Information on How Your Personal Data Is Transferred Globally

 

BVLVL will not transfer your personal data outside EEA. However, in case your personal data would be transferred to jurisdictions located outside of EEA, we will ensure that appropriate safeguards GDPR advocates exist and are applied, such as:

 

1. the recipient of the personal data is located within a country that benefits from an “adequacy” decision of the European Commission;

 

2. the recipient has signed a contract based on “model contractual clauses” approved by the European Commission, obliging them to protect your personal data;

 

3. or in the absence of the above appropriate safeguards, we will ask you for your explicit consent for the cross-border transfer of your personal data or take any other measures that are recognized as providing a sufficient level of protection for your personal data.

 

VI. VI. Incident management

 

In case there is a security breach regarding personal data, the company’s controller will notify you and the Authority responsible for the protection of personal data about it without delay (within 72 h at the latest) and take all necessary measures to eliminate the damage and limit or mitigate the harmful consequences that occurred due to the personal data security breach.
