Any of the information we collect from you may be used in one ore more of the following ways:

- To improve customer relations service (your information helps us respond more effectively to customer requests and needs);

What gives us the right to process the data?

1. Legal grounds
We will only process your data if we have a legal basis to do so. Thus, this legal basis will depend on the reasons underlying the collection and use of your data.
2. Compliance with legal obligations
The management and issuance of the invoice for the sale is based on the legal obligation of the company in its relationship with the customers. Thus, data collection in this sense will be based on the need for us to comply with our legal obligations.
3. Consent
This may represent the legal basis of processing personal data for the purpose of managing the sending of marketing information (articles, information about projects, events, etc.) or for the purpose of contacting to offer the details of our Programs.
The right to withdraw consent regarding data processing can be exercised by you at any time.
We note that only persons at least 18 years of age can give their consent. For those under this age, the consent of the children's parents or legal guardians is required.
4. Legitimate Interest
Our legitimate interest is in ensuring that our website is safe for you. It also helps us understand the needs, expectations and satisfaction level of our users. Thus, we will be able to improve our products, services and brands. We carry out all these actions in order to improve the level of satisfaction of our visitors and customers.

 

How long do we keep the data?

Your personal data will be kept only for the time necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it is processed. Thus, in order to determine the appropriate retention period, we will take into account the amount, the nature of the data and the purposes for which we process it and whether we can achieve these purposes by other means.

In calculating this period we will take into account the periods for which we may need to retain personal data to fulfill our legal obligations or to deal with your complaints or enquiries.

After this point of fulfillment of the purpose for which it was processed, your personal data will be deleted or securely destroyed. Also worth mentioning is the fact that we are constantly considering how we can minimize the amount of personal data we use.

Thus, as an example, if your data was obtained following your consent in order to be contacted for details of a Program, the data provided by you will be deleted after we contact you, unless you express your consent to remain on our database.

Likewise, in the situation where your data was obtained following your express consent for subscribing to one of our programs or subscribing to the newsletter, the data will be deleted at the time of termination of this purpose or at the time to which you withdraw your consent.

In the situation where the law requires us to keep your data for a certain period (in the case of the invoice, the period of 5 years is provided), your data will be deleted after the expiration of this period.

 

To which recipients can we communicate your data?

PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT SERVICES SRL does not sell, exchange or transfer your data in any way to any other company/person, for any reason, without your consent.
