1. Categories of personal data
Conclusion and performance of the Terms and Conditions involve personal data processing (name, surname, job title, corporate e-mail address) of natural persons (your proxies, representatives, employees, contractors, etc.) transferred by the Client to EL Passion. This can include personal data of the Client himself/herself when a Client is a natural person. We process your personal data provided at the point of registration (name, surname, e-mail address) for the purpose of enabling your user access to our services.
Insofar as the performance of the Terms and Conditions involves the processing of personal data of Client’s representatives, employees, contractors, etc., the Client acknowledges that this Privacy Policy is applicable to such processing and undertakes to provide such representatives, employees, contractors, etc. with its content.
2. Purposes and legal basis

In processing your data, we pursue our legitimate interest in (i) direct marketing of our services, (ii) enabling the provision of our services based on the Terms and Conditions, (iii) exercising our contractual and legal rights and obligations. If the Client is a natural person, we process the personal data based on the contract, i.e. the processing is necessary for the conclusion and performance of the contract, to which the data subject is a party.
Provision of personal data is voluntary, but if you don’t provide us with the basic personal data, we will not be able to conclude the Terms and Conditions with the Client or contact the Client in connection with the provision of services pursuant to the Terms and Conditions.
3. Your rights
You have the right to object to the processing of your data by us and to request that we correct or delete your data. If you file such a request we will stop processing your data and delete it, unless there exists an important overriding legal interest (e.g. defense of claims or existence of a legal obligation to retain the data) that will entitle us to keep your data for a longer period. You also have the right of access to your data, as well as the right to data portability and to restriction of the processing.
4. Retention periods
We process your personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes, for which it was collected. As a general rule, we will process personal data for as long as we have a contractual relationship with the Client and/or for as long as you remain the contact person or employee/contractor of the Client, whichever is the earliest. We will also process the data after the termination of the contractual relationship, for the duration of the statutory period of 3 years. We may have to process personal data for a longer period of time in limited circumstances, i.e. in case we need to defend against legal claims.
5. Sharing your personal data with third parties
We entrust the processing of your personal data to entities, which act on our behalf and solely based on our instructions (data processors). In particular, we use data processors, whom we select carefully, to store your data on secure servers located within the territory of the EU. In the event that personal data is entrusted for further processing to subprocessors outside the EEA, we ensure that appropriate safeguards (in particular Standard Contractual Clauses) are in place to ensure the legality of such transfer and the security of your data.
We may have to share your personal data with competent authorities (in particular the police or prosecution service), if they approach us with such a request, provided that there exists an appropriate legal basis for making your personal data available to them (e.g. a court order).
