WHO IS THE PERSONAL DATA ADMINISTRATOR?
The personal data administrator is the company that determines the purpose and means of personal data processing:
Skeeneffect, s. r. o., Kutlíková 17, Bratislava 852 50. ID 55 473 491
WHAT PERSONAL DATA DO WE PROCESS?
Processing is lawful only if and only to the extent that at least one of the following conditions is met:
The data subject has expressed its consent to personal data processing for one or more specific purposes;
Processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party or to take measures before concluding the contract based on the request of the data subject;
Processing is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation;
Processing is necessary for legitimate interests pursued by the operator or a third party, except in cases where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject that require personal data protection.
We only process personal data that you have provided to us.
WHAT ARE PERSONAL DATA SOURCES?
We obtain personal data directly from you. You provide these personal data in the client contract, in the order form, or you have provided them on other documents.
Publicly available sources, registers, and records, such as the commercial register may also be the sources of personal data. We can get personal data from third parties being authorized to handle them.
At public events organized by the operator and attended by the data subjects, they can promote the operator by publishing their photos, video recordings, and video-audio recordings on the operator´s website and social networks. Personal data is processed based on a specific need and request.
WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF PERSONAL DATA PROCESSING?
I process your data for processing and fulfilling your order or request, issuing a tax document, delivering goods or services, and handling complaints.
The seller hereby informs the buyer that personal data processing is permitted following Article 6 par. 1 letter b of the REGULATION (EU) 2016/679 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL on the protection of natural persons concerning the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data.
According to Article 6 para. 1 letter b of the REGULATION (EU) 2016/679 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL on the protection of natural persons concerning the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, the seller, as the operator in the process of concluding the purchase contract, will process the buyer's data without its consent as the data subject, since the seller will process the buyer's data in pre-contractual relations with the buyer and the processing of the buyer's data is necessary for the performance of the purchase contract, in which the buyer is one of the contracting parties.
We process the personal data of unregistered customers that you provided in your order to fulfill the purchase contract. The legal basis is the performance of the contract.
We process the personal data of registered customers to register and maintain their electronic accounts and subsequently fulfill the purchase contract. By registering, the customer receives various benefits like an electronic account with the purchase history.
We process e-mail addresses to send e-mail offers of similar goods that you have already purchased from us and that you might be interested in, possibly at a promotional price.
If the customer is not interested in sending the mentioned offers, it is possible to revoke the sending. The automatic unsubscribe is displayed at the bottom of the sent email.
In the case of granting consent for marketing purposes, it includes the following activities:
- Offer of products and services. Based on your consent, we may send you offers electronically, mainly via e-mail messages or messages sent to mobile devices, via the web client zone, in writing, or by telephone.
- An automated personal data processing to adapt the business offer to your needs.
- Market surveys and customer satisfaction surveys concerning the products and services used.
Consent given for marketing purposes is voluntary but necessary for us to send you product and service offers. Without such consent, we cannot send you offers of products and services. You can withdraw your consent in writing at any time.

The e-mail addresses of customers who have made a purchase may, based on their consent, be forwarded to the company, which subsequently addresses customers with a survey of satisfaction with the purchase.
We determine your satisfaction with the purchase through an e-mail survey as part of the Verified by Customers program, in which our e-shop is involved. We send you emails after each purchase unless you refuse to be sent emails for direct marketing purposes, following § 62 of Act no. 351/2011 Coll. on electronic communications, as amended. We process personal data to send questionnaires within the Verified by Customers program based on our legitimate interest, which consists of ascertaining your satisfaction with your purchase from us. To send questionnaires, evaluate your feedback, and analyze our market position, we use a data intermediary who can access information about purchased goods and your e-mail address for these purposes. When sending e-mail questionnaires, your data is not transferred to any third party for its purposes. You can reject e-mail questionnaires as part of the Verified by Customers program at any time via the link in the e-mail with the questionnaire. In this case, we will not send you the questionnaire any further.
