Sharing personal data is permitted only if one of the conditions referred to in Article 6(1) or in Article 9(2) of the GDPR is met.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>6.3. The processing of personal data is entrusted to a third party on the basis of a data processing agreement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>6.4. Valvex reserves the right to disclose selected pieces of information regarding the data subject to competent authorities or third parties that request such information, based on an appropriate legal basis and in accordance with the provisions of applicable law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"7\">\n<li><strong>TRANSFER OF DATA OUTSIDE THE EEA<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>The level of protection for personal data outside the European Economic Area (\u201cEEA\u201d) differs from that provided by European law. For this reason, Valvex transfers personal data outside the EEA only when necessary and with an adequate level of protection, in particular in the form of:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 cooperation with entities processing personal data in countries for which an appropriate decision of the European Commission has been issued regarding the assurance of an adequate level of personal data protection;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 application of standard contractual clauses issued by the European Commission, provided that an adequate level of personal data protection is ensured;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 application of binding corporate rules approved by the relevant supervisory authority;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Valvex always informs about its intention to transfer personal data outside the EEA at the stage of collection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"8\">\n<li><strong>PERSONAL DATA PROCESSING PERIOD<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>The period of data processing by Valvex depends on the purpose of the processing.

If the processing is based on consent, the data is processed until it is withdrawn. When the basis for the processing is the necessity to conclude and perform a contract, the data are processed until its termination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The data processing period may be extended if the processing is necessary to establish or pursue claims or defend against claims, and after this period \u2013 only if and to the extent required by law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"9\">\n<li><strong>RIGHTS RELATED TO THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA, RIGHTS OF DATA SUBJECTS<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Data subjects have the following rights:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 the right to information about the processing of personal data \u2013 on this basis, Valvex provides the natural person submitting the request with information about the data processing, including, in particular, the purposes and legal basis for the processing, the scope of data held, entities to which the data are disclosed, and the planned date of data deletion;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 the right to obtain a copy of the data \u2013 on this basis, Valvex provides a copy of the processed data regarding the natural person submitting the request;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 the right to rectification \u2013 Valvex is obliged to remove any possible inconsistencies or errors in the personal data being processed and to supplement them if they are incomplete;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 the right to delete data \u2013 on this basis you can request the deletion of data the processing of which is no longer necessary to achieve any of the purposes for which they were collected;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 the right to limit processing \u2013 if such a request is made, Valvex will cease to perform operations on personal data \u2013 except for operations to which the data subject has consented and store data in accordance with the adopted retention principles \u2013 or until the reasons for limiting processing no longer exist (e.g. a decision of the supervisory authority authorising further data processing issued);<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 the right to data portability \u2013 on this basis, to the extent that data is processed in an automated manner in connection with a concluded contract or consent, Valvex issues data provided by the person to whom they relate in a format that allows the data to be read by a computer.

A response to the request should be provided within one month of its receipt. If it is necessary to extend this deadline, Valvex informs the applicant of the reasons for this action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>10.5. In the event that the request is addressed to the Company electronically, the response is provided in the same form, unless the applicant requested a response in a different form. In other cases, the answer is provided in writing. If the deadline for fulfilling the request makes it impossible to respond in writing, and the scope of the applicant\u2019s data processed by Valvex allows contact by electronic means, the response is provided electronically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>10.6. The Company stores information regarding the submitted request and the person who submitted the request in order to ensure compliance and to establish, defend or pursue possible claims of data subjects.

If the decision to impose a fee is questioned, the data subject may submit a complaint to the authority supervising the processing of personal data competent for the person\u2019s place of residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement.
