Purposes for Collecting and Further Processing Personal Data
Hdizajn collects personal data to provide, maintain, protect, and improve its services related to the purchase of certain products, to understand how users and/or customers use the provided services and the Hdizajn website, and for fulfilling Hdizajn’s contractual obligations. Such data is collected based on consent given by the user and/or customer for one or more specific purposes, as well as in one of the following cases:
Fulfilling Contractual Obligations
Hdizajn collects and processes personal data of users and/or customers for the purpose of concluding and executing contracts, delivering ordered products, providing advice and assistance with product use, offering relevant additional and/or extended warranties for products, handling customer complaints, and other actions related to the conclusion and execution of contracts in accordance with applicable regulations. The legal basis for processing personal data of users and/or customers for the above purposes is the necessity of concluding a contract. If the user and/or customer fails to provide essential data, Hdizajn will not be able to conclude the contract and/or undertake actions related to the execution of the concluded contract.
Fulfilling Legal Obligations
Hdizajn is required, based on a written request from users and/or customers to the address of the data protection officer, to provide access to personal data processed about them, correct inaccurate personal data, delete personal data or restrict its processing, and inform them about the possibility of filing a complaint regarding data processing and the right to data portability.
Direct Marketing
Contact details of users and/or customers may be used to send promotional notices about Hdizajn’s products and services if the user and/or customer has consented to such processing or if there is a legitimate interest of Hdizajn in such activities, unless such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the user and/or customer requiring data protection.
Hdizajn may use contact details and personally reach out to users and/or customers whose personal data it already possesses, based on legitimate interest to send promotional notices about similar products and services it provides, using all available marketing channels, unless the user and/or customer objects to such processing.
To ensure that users and/or customers receive notifications tailored to their preferences and habits, Hdizajn needs to use certain data to create personalized marketing notifications, as long as the user and/or customer does not explicitly object to such processing or withdraws their previously given consent.
The legal basis for processing personal data for these purposes is Hdizajn’s legitimate interest, unless such interest is overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms requiring data protection.
Internal Purposes
Hdizajn uses certain data from users and/or customers solely for its internal records, to protect the legitimate interests of users and/or customers and/or Hdizajn. This includes using personal data to create offers that meet the needs and desires of users and/or customers, as well as market research and analysis.
Data on Potential Users
Hdizajn is also authorized to collect data on potential users and/or customers of its services and/or products. This data includes basic details (name and surname, email address) as well as interests of potential users and/or customers who contact Hdizajn to be informed and/or offered certain products and services.
The legal basis for collection in this case is the consent of the user and/or customer.
Duration of Storage and Processing of Personal Data
Depending on the purpose and legal basis for which personal data is collected, Hdizajn is obligated to store personal data for a period prescribed by relevant regulations or until the purpose for which the data was collected is fulfilled. Upon expiration of the legal retention period or cessation of the purpose, the data is deleted.
In cases where the basis for collecting and processing data is solely the legitimate interest of Hdizajn and/or the consent of the user and/or customer, personal data will be retained for the following time periods:
a) Data on existing users and/or customers: for the duration of the contractual relationship and 24 months after its termination.
b) Data on potential users and/or customers: 2 months.
Data processed based on the legitimate interest of Hdizajn and/or the consent of users and/or customers may be deleted before the expiration of the period specified in this Policy if such deletion is requested by the user and/or customer or if the user and/or customer objects to such processing.
Rights of Users/Customers
Right to Access Personal Data
Hdizajn, as the data controller, is committed to providing access to personal data it processes about users and/or customers based on a written request from the user and/or customer, which may also be in the form of an email. Hdizajn will inform them about the purpose of the data processing, the type of personal data being processed, the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the data has been or will be disclosed, the expected time period for processing, or the criteria used to determine that period.
Right to Rectify Inaccurate Data
Hdizajn will enable the correction of inaccurate personal data in each individual case where it is determined that the collected personal data about the user and/or customer is incorrect or has changed.
Right to Delete Personal Data
Hdizajn will delete personal data of users and/or customers in the following cases:
a) When personal data is no longer necessary for the purpose of processing, i.e., upon the cessation of the purpose of processing.
b) When the user and/or customer withdraws consent as the legal basis for data processing, and no other legal basis for processing exists.
c) When the user and/or customer files an objection to the processing of data (see more under the section Right to Object).
d) When the personal data has been processed unlawfully.
e) When the personal data must be deleted to comply with legal obligations under EU law or the law of the member state to which the data controller is subject.
f) When the personal data has been collected in relation to the offer of information society services based on the consent of a child.
Right to Restrict Data Processing
Hdizajn will ensure the restriction of the processing of personal data in cases where the user and/or customer disputes the accuracy of the data, when the processing is unlawful and the user and/or customer objects to the deletion of data and instead requests restriction of its use, when the data controller no longer needs the personal data for processing purposes but the user and/or customer requests data for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, as well as when the user and/or customer objects to the processing of personal data based on Hdizajn’s legitimate interest, including the creation of user and/or customer profiles.
Right to Data Portability
Hdizajn will facilitate the portability of personal data to another data controller upon request by the service user, provided that the user has given consent for such transfer, and the processing is carried out by automated means, and provided that such transfer is technically feasible.
Right to Object
The user and/or customer has the right to object to the processing of personal data concerning them if the data is processed for the purposes of the legitimate interest of the data controller. In such cases, Hdizajn will, as the data controller, cease processing personal data, unless it demonstrates compelling legitimate grounds for processing that override the rights of the user and/or customer or if the processing is necessary for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.
If personal data of users and/or customers is processed for the purposes of direct marketing, the user has the right at any time to object to processing for direct marketing purposes, especially if personal data is used for profiling.
Where Personal Data is Processed
Hdizajn processes personal data of users and/or customers in the Republic of Croatia.
Hdizajn only discloses personal data to third parties in the following cases:
a) If it is necessary to disclose data for the purpose of fulfilling Hdizajn’s obligations under a contract with the user and/or customer.
b) If there is a legal obligation for Hdizajn to disclose specific data to third parties.
c) If there is consent from the user and/or customer.
Managing Consents
The active role of the user and/or customer in privacy protection is reflected in giving consent as a voluntary, specifically informed, and unequivocal expression of the individual’s (data subject’s) wishes, through a statement or clear affirmative action that signifies consent to the processing of personal data. Managing consents involves the possibility for the user and/or customer to authorize Hdizajn to collect and process certain personal data for one or more purposes (consent of the data subject) or to withdraw previously given consent for the collection and processing of personal data for one or more purposes.
