1.4. Using the Online Store, including making purchases, is voluntary.

Each time, the scope of data required for the conclusion of the agreement is previously indicated on the Online Store website and in the Online Store Regulations; (2) statutory obligations of the Administrator – providing personal data is a statutory requirement resulting from generally applicable legal provisions imposing on the Administrator the obligation to process personal data (e.g. processing data for the purpose of keeping tax or accounting books) and failure to provide them will prevent the Administrator from fulfilling these obligations.

The Administrator takes special care to protect the interests of persons whose personal data are processed by him, and in particular is responsible and ensures that the data collected by him are: (1) processed in accordance with the law; (2) collected for specified, lawful purposes and not subject to further processing incompatible with these purposes; (3) substantively correct and adequate in relation to the purposes for which they are processed; (4) stored in a form which allows identification of persons to whom they relate, no longer than is necessary to achieve the purpose of processing and (5) processed in a manner that ensures appropriate security of personal data, including protection against unauthorized or unlawful processing and accidental loss, destruction or damage, using appropriate technical or organizational measures.
1.6. Taking into account the nature, scope, context and purposes of processing and the risk of violation of the rights or freedoms of natural persons with varying probability and severity of threat, the Controller shall implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure that processing is carried out in accordance with this Regulation and to be able to demonstrate this. These measures are reviewed and updated as necessary. The Controller shall apply technical measures to prevent unauthorized persons from obtaining and modifying personal data sent electronically.

5. PROFILING IN THE ONLINE STORE
5.1. The GDPR Regulation imposes on the Controller the obligation to provide information on automated decision-making, including profiling, as referred to in Article 22 paragraphs 1 and 4 of the GDPR Regulation, and – at least in these cases – relevant information on the principles of their making, as well as on the significance and foreseeable consequences of such processing for the data subject. With this in mind, the Controller provides information on possible profiling in this section of the privacy policy.
5.2. The Administrator may use profiling in the Online Store for direct marketing purposes, but decisions made on its basis by the Administrator do not concern the conclusion or refusal to conclude a Sales Agreement or the possibility of using Electronic Services in the Online Store. The effect of using profiling in the Online Store may be, for example, granting a given person a discount, sending them a discount code, reminding them about unfinished purchases, sending a proposal for a Product that may meet the interests or preferences of a given person or proposing better conditions compared to the standard offer of the Online Store. Despite profiling, the given person freely decides whether they will want to use the discount received in this way or better conditions and make a purchase in the Online Store.
5.3. Profiling in the Online Store consists of automatic analysis or forecasting of the behavior of a given person on the Online Store website, e.g. by adding a specific Product to the cart, browsing the page of a specific Product in the Online Store or by analyzing the history of purchases made in the Online Store. The condition for such profiling is that the Administrator has personal data of a given person in order to be able to send them, e.g. a discount code.
5.4. The data subject has the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning him or her or significantly affects him or her in a similar manner.

In such a case, the controller is no longer allowed to process these personal data, unless they demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for processing that override the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject, or grounds for establishing, pursuing or defending claims.
6.5.
