\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tIn addition to the purposes and legal bases mentioned above, we also process your personal data for so-called legitimate interest.

PROCESS BASED ON LEGITIMATE INTEREST<\/th>EXPLANATION<\/th><\/tr><\/thead>
advertisement<\/td>We will send you an email to present you with new products, to conduct opinion polls and studies to improve our services. You can object to the further processing of your data for advertising purposes with each email. Of course, you can contact our data protection officer directly at contact@vitaminaqua.ro if you wish to object to the processing of your data for advertising purposes or for further information on this question.<\/td><\/tr>
Email marketing<\/td>We want to prevent generic newsletters and unsolicited marketing measures. We will therefore select transactions that match your interests and contact you if we believe that the information could be helpful to you. You can object to the further processing of your data for advertising purposes with each email. Of course, you can also contact our data protection officer directly at contact@vitaminaqua.ro if you would like to object to the processing of your data for advertising purposes or for further information on this issue.<\/td><\/tr>
Measurement data<\/td>To improve our services, we will collect various measurement data, which we cannot assign to you or a profile. This helps us optimize our advertisements.<\/td><\/tr>
Other information<\/td>If you voluntarily decide to share information that goes beyond the mandatory information, we are of course happy to do so. In this way, we can continue to improve our service. This is data that you voluntarily provide when you use our website, our applications, but also information from other sources, such as social media or other (public) databases (e.g. user ID of other platforms).<\/td><\/tr>
Quality assessment<\/td>In order to provide you with a continuously improved service, we regularly evaluate the success or potential causes of unsuccessful marketing measures. For this, we analyze, for example, whether our newsletters are opened and the content is also selected.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

We generally delete data after the purpose has been fulfilled. The exact deletion rules are defined in our regional deletion concepts. Different deletion rules apply depending on the purpose of the processing. Within our deletion concepts we have defined different data classes and the deletion periods of the rules assigned to them. The collected data is marked with a deletion rule. When the retention period is fulfilled, the stored data will be deleted accordingly. We will delete your personal data if you wish and notify us or after ten years from the collection of your data.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

In addition to the deletion rules defined by us, there are other legal retention periods that we must comply with. For example, tax data must be retained for a period of six to ten years or even longer in some cases. These special retention periods vary depending on local legal requirements. Therefore, despite your request to delete your data, we may still store some of the data stored due to legal regulations. In this case, we will restrict the data from further processing.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
