By the requirements of the legislation on the protection of personal data, we must inform you about the legal basis for the processing of your data, which are:

1. Fulfillment of the contract – in the case of ordering goods and setting up a user account, or in the case of your participation in a consumer contest and also when informing about discounts to which you are entitled.

2. Consent – especially in connection with sending commercial information regarding news and current offers, or other forms of marketing. Each given consent is voluntary and you can withdraw it at any time, but this does not affect the legality of the processing before its withdrawal.

3. Fulfilling our legal obligations – when keeping data regarding you and your order in our accounting or when making data available to state and other authorities that supervise our activities or that resolve disputes or implement decisions.

4. Our legitimate interest – in the improvement and personalization of our services, some marketing activities, or in connection with security and protection of rights, as we stated above. In these cases, we always carefully consider whether the processing will not constitute an unreasonable interference with your rights.

We also work with partners who provide us with analytical and advertising services. These allow us to better understand how users use our website, place our advertising on the Internet and measure its performance. These companies may use cookies and similar technologies to collect data about your interaction with our services and other sites.

For legal reasons and to prevent damages

We may also store or make your data available to other persons to comply with obligations arising from legal regulations, from the requirements of state and other authorities, to assert our claims or to defend ourselves in proceedings where others assert them against us. The categories of third parties to whom we disclose personal data include, for example, courts, state and other authorities responsible for exercising control over our activities, resolving disputes or implementing decisions, or our legal and accounting advisors and auditors.

Transfer to third countries

We do not actively transfer your data to third countries outside the EU.

How we protect your data

In accordance with the requirements of applicable legislation, we implement all necessary security, technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data. Electronic data is stored in a protected database on a server owned by us or reserved for us. We protect the database containing personal data against its damage, destruction, loss and misuse.

How long we keep your data

We store personal data related to your user account while you have an active account, as it is necessary for us to be able to operate the account for you. If you do not have an account created (you did not create a password during the creation of the order), we store your data related to the completed order for the necessary period, which is usually three and a half years from its delivery.

If we use your data to deliver commercial communications to your e-mail address, or in other cases where you have given us your consent, we store this data until you revoke the relevant consent. In cases of using your data based on our legitimate interest, we will keep your data until the reason for its processing ceases. However, we must warn you that even if one of the reasons for processing ceases, this may not result in us ending the storage of your data. We can and sometimes must process personal data for another purpose, under a different legal basis.

What are your rights?

The fact that we process your data gives you several rights. If you exercise any of the rights listed below, we will inform you about the processing of your request within 30 days from the date of its delivery. In justified cases, we can extend the mentioned period to 60 days, about which we will inform you.

How to exercise your rights

You can exercise your rights by sending an email or a written request to info@properio.com

Please include your name, surname, e-mail address, or address of permanent residence in your application. If you do not provide us with the specified data, it will not be possible to comply with your request. We require this information from you to verify your identity and not provide your data to an unauthorized person.

Right of access to data

You have the right to receive confirmation from us as to whether your data is being processed and, if we are processing your data, we will provide you with information regarding what data we are processing, for what purpose, to whom your data was provided, whether it was transferred to a third country and how long we will keep your data.

Right to rectification

It’s human to make mistakes. If you believe our company is processing your incorrect personal data, you can exercise your right directly in your account settings, in the “My Account” section, or ask us to update it. It is important to us that we process the correct personal data, so be sure to use this right whenever, for example, you move or any of your data that is important for your relationship with us changes.

Right to erasure (right to be forgotten)

You have the right to delete the personal data that we process about you if the following conditions are met and legal exceptions do not apply:

• the data is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected
• you withdraw your consent to the processing of data and there is no other legal basis for its processing
• you object, based on your specific situation, to the processing of your data, legitimate reasons for processing do not prevail, or you object to processing for direct marketing
• personal data was processed illegally.

If your data is published and you exercise the right to erasure, we will also delete such published data. At the same time, we will inform other recipients of your data that you have exercised the right to erasure and they should therefore delete all references to your data, if this is technically possible, taking into account the available technology and the costs of implementing these measures.

If you cancel your account with us, we will proceed to delete your data where possible and delete the account within 10 days. However, due to technical reasons (e.g. due to data backup), some data may be deleted after a longer period, which should not exceed 60 days.

The right of restriction

You also have the right to ask us for a temporary restriction of processing in the following cases:

• if you believe we are processing incorrect data about you until the correctness of this personal data is verified
• the processing of your data is against the law and you decide to request the restriction of its processing instead of deleting your data
• we no longer need personal data for processing purposes, but it’s necessary for your purposes of proving, exercising or defending your legal claims
• in case you object to the processing of your data, until the verification period of whether the legitimate reasons for the processing of personal data prevail over your legitimate interests

Right to data portability

You have the right to receive data we process based on your consent and/or contract and process it by automated means, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. You can also transfer this data to another person, so if it is technically possible, we will transfer your data directly to the operator of your choice at your request.

The right to object

You have the right to object, for reasons related to your specific situation, to the processing of your data, which is carried out based on our legitimate interest, including the right to object to profiling based on our legitimate interest. You also always have the right to object to the processing of your data if it is processed for direct marketing purposes.

Filing complaints

If you believe that the processing of your data by our company violates the applicable legal regulations for the protection of personal data, you have the right to file a complaint with our main supervisory authority – the Office for Personal Data Protection of the Slovak Republic, whose contact details can be found here.
