cookies policy

Cookies are small data files that are issued to your device when you visit our Website, which stores information about your use of it and sometimes track information about you. Cookie files allow us to recognize your device and collect data such as your internet service provider’s domain name, type of browser, type of operating system, IP address, websites visited by you, as well as operational data, or device location information. Information collected by cookie files is not always Personal Data in the meaning of the GDPR. However, if you have previously provided your Personal Data, cookie files can be directly linked to you, for example by associating the identification numbers in the cookies with other information. 

In principle, the legal basis for processing your Personal Data collected through cookie files and similar technologies, is your consent (Article 6(1) letter a of the GDPR), except when their use is necessary for the proper functioning of the Website (provision of the services by electronic means), when we rely on Article 173 par. 3 point 2 of Telecommunication Law of 16 July 2004 and accordingly our legitimate interest (Article 6(1) letter f of the GDPR).

We process the abovementioned Personal Data to improve the quality of our Services, APMAR Trade’s operation and products, and also to adjust the content available via Website to your interests (including as part of the automated processing of Personal Data, to present general advertisements, offers, or promotions, regarding the Services in a manner adapted to the User’s interests without, however, significantly affecting their decisions – profiling). We may read your preferences, for example by analysing how often you visit our Website, what Services you use etc. This allows a better understanding of your expectations and adaptation to your needs. Thanks to the use of advanced technologies, the above activities will often be performed by the system in an automated manner, thanks to which the content showed to you will be the most up–to–date (for that purpose we process your Personal Data also based on our legitimate interest – promotional/analytical/performance purposes – art 6(1) letter f of the GDPR).

In the event when the legal basis for processing of your Personal Data is your consent, we remind you that you can withdraw your consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.  Whereas, if your Personal Data is processed on the basis of our legitimate interest, you have the right to object to such processing. You can find a description of your rights in Section VI. of the Privacy Policy which is available at https://techland-merch.com/privacy-policy-cterms-eng-37.html
