A basic purpose of your personal data processing, when you are a user of www.emkybikes.com shop, is to conclude (online) and execute the EMKY product sales contract (on the shop regulations specified herein). The purpose and scope of the data processed by the controller always result from your consent (Art. 6, Section 1, item a of the GDPR). The fact that we need your data to execute the sales contract, i.e. to deliver the goods you ordered, makes sharing your data necessary to conclude and execute the contract. The lack of consent for the use of data marked as obligatory, although totally voluntary, will make it impossible for us to provide services connected with this data.

Possible purposes of gathering and processing personal data:

  1. 1. Concluding a contract for the provision of electronic services, i.e. managing customer accounts among others.
    2. Concluding and executing a sales contract or goods reservation.

In case of making a purchase, the basis for processing the data shared with us is the contract execution (Art. 6 Section 1 item b of the GDPR). Personal data related to the purchase will be stored until the order has been completed and until the claims have expired, i.e. for maximum 7 years (after the end of the calendar year in which the tax was due), due to the applicable laws pursuant to Art. 6 of the GDPR (the controller’s legitimate interests) in relation to ensuring the interests of the Controller and users and to comply with legal obligations, such as tax, accounting or civil law regulations for warranty purposes.

You should also remember that every one of your consents for your personal data to be processed by EMKY can be withdrawn at any time. Thus, pursuant to Art. 6 Section 1 item f) of the GDPR (the controller’s legitimate interests), statistical data will be processed by EMKY only until you object or withdraw your consent to processing it. The data collected for marketing purposes will also be processed only until you withdraw a suitable consent – pursuant to Art. 6 Section 1 item a) (voluntary consent).

8 / Transfers of personal data

Facebook Pixel
Due to a legitimate interest in the scope of analysis, optimization and constant improvement of the services provided by www.emkybikes.com Shop – www.emkybikes.com Shop uses the tracking function, i.e. Facebook Pixel. It is provided by Facebook, social networking service, operated by Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave., Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA or, for the users being EU residents – Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland (hereinafter: Facebook/ Facebook site/the Site), and it is a fragment of the code placed on the Shop website.

Facebook Pixel enables Facebook to identify people using the Internet content provided by www.emkybikes.com Shop. Having interacted with www.emkybikes.com website, they become a target group for displaying advertising content of www.emkybikes.com website. Therefore, www.emkybikes.com Shop uses the function of Facebook Pixel to publish advertisements on Facebook site exclusively for the Site users, who showed interests in the advertised services. A condition for forwarding the advertising content to them is that they share predefined features, i.e. interests in particular subjects/products included in the catalogue which is created based on the visited websites. The Facebook Pixel function allows to conduct periodical analyses concerning the effectiveness of advertisements displayed on Facebook site at the request of www.emkybikes.com website. The main aim is that www.emkybikes.com website could acquire statistical data for market research and for investigating the behaviours of Facebook users, being the recipients of the advertising content of www.emkybikes.com Shop. When the User is visiting www.emkybikes.com website, the Facebook Pixel function establishes a direct connection with Facebook servers, informing Facebook site server about the fact that the User has visited the target site for advertising, and hence Facebook assigns the information in question to a personal account of the Site user.

9 / User rights
All users, at any time and free of charge, have the right to monitor the processing of their personal data which relate to them, contained in the controller’s data collection, i.e. to demand completing, updating, correcting personal data, temporary or permanent stopping processing it or deleting it, limiting its processing if it is incorrect (incomplete, out-of-date, false) or has been acquired in violation of the act or it is no longer necessary to achieve the purpose for which it was acquired.

Thus, each user has an inalienable right to:

– you think the personal data is processed against the law;
– personal data must be deleted to meet legal obligations of the EU or a member state to which EMKY is subject;
– personal data has been collected in relation to offering information society services.

When the demand to be forgotten is realized, the user account is going to be deleted immediately or after completing all the orders assigned to it. All data will be deleted and the e-mail address will be removed from the EMKY database. We will not be able to recreate such an account – you will have to create it again and enter all necessary data.

  1. 7. limit the data processing,e. the right to demand stopping data processing by the Controller and restricting to storing it, regardless of the right to be forgotten, pursuant to Art. 18 of the GDPR. Until it is dealt with, making your request prevents you from using specific functions or services of www.emkybikes.com website, the use of which will be connected with processing the data covered by the request.

– when your personal data stopped being necessary for the controller for the purposes they had been acquired or used for but you need it to determine, pursue or defend claims;
– when you objected to the use of your data, then the limitation is for a period necessary to settle your demand if, due to a special situation, the protection of your interests, rights, and freedom outweighs the interests realized by the controller when processing your personal data.

Among the methods allowing to limit your personal data processing, there might be for example: a temporary transfer of selected personal data to another processing system, disabling the access to selected data or a temporary removal of published data from the website. Data processing will be limited by technical means so that personal data would not be further processed or modified.

  1. 9. withdraw the consents given to the controller to processing the data in such a scope in which the basis of your personal data processing is the consent pursuant to Art. 7 Section 3 of the GDPR.

In order to exercise the rights mentioned above on the rules provided by the personal data protection regulations, you can: use the CONTACT section on the shop website, log onto your account on the shop website or contact the personal data controller via e-mail to ado@emky.pl or by traditional post to the address indicated in the general provisions of this privacy policy.

10 / Safety rules
We are doing our best efforts to continuously ensure confidentiality, integrity, and resistance of personal data processing systems and services by regular testing, measuring, evaluating, and improving the effectiveness of technical and organizational means designed to ensure data processing safety. Pursuant to Art. 32 of the GDPR, the safety means used by us when processing personal data are suitable for the processing scope, thus they ensure full safety and alleviation of the risk connected with personal data processing, such as accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, modification or unauthorised disclosure or unauthorised access to personal data sent, stored or processed in another way.

In order to protect the data collected and processed by us to the greatest extent against third party access:

  • we only acquire this data for processing which is necessary to execute the contract concluded with you,
  • we do not store unnecessary data after the period for which we are obliged by law, i.e. after reaching all aims and legal obligations related to the concluded contracts, including tax and trade regulations, and after the relevant time limits, the data is deleted, unless you agreed to its further processing and use,
  • we select technical and organizational mechanisms of personal data protection, considering the nature, context, and purposes of processing as well as the risk of infringement of the natural person’s rights and freedom of different likelihood and weight, in line with identified threats.

www.emkybikes.com online shop is created with the use of well-approved and widely used technological solutions in the field of safety and encrypting data transmitted over the Internet. By using SSL algorithm, your data will be encrypted not to be reconstructed by any third party before it is transmitted to us. Using SSL encryption ensures that your data is only sent to the server which sends a request.

www.emkybikes.com shop provides its users safe and encrypted connection when logging onto the user account on our website. If you somehow lost the password to your account in www.emkybikes.com shop, we enable you to generate a new one, as we do not send a password reminder.

To generate a new password, you have to enter your e-mail address in a form available under “Remind the Password” link which can be found next to the account login form in www.emkybikes.com shop. A new password will be automatically sent to the e-mail address provided during registration.

A particularly important criterion of selecting business partners by EMKY, with whom the EMKY personal data controller concludes data processing contracts, is the fact whether they assure the highest level of security adequate for the processed data, and we transmit the data only to such entities. However, EMKY is not responsible for the effectiveness of the security means in the companies which are entrusted with personal data by the controller based on entrustment agreements, related to processing personal data by controllers or personal data inspectors in these companies.

We never send any correspondence, including electronic correspondence, asking for login data, especially your account access password, thus we would like to request for special caution when sharing your data, the password in particular, with third parties, from which you could receive a message with the request mentioned above.

The data collected is processed in an anonymised way, i.e. it is of a collective and anonymous nature (the purpose of anonymising data is to irreversibly prevent from identifying a data subject). We do not provide Google with any data which can be recognized or used by them as information enabling identification of a particular person, so Google will not be able to associate a user’s IP address with any other data possessed by them.
Anonymising/masking IP addresses of www.emkybikes.com website users occurs before any actions connected with storing or processing data by Google, in the member states of the European Union or other countries being the parties to the Agreement on the European Economic Area.
