1.1. This Online Shop Privacy Policy is of informative nature, which means that it is not a source of obligations for Service
Recipients or Customers of the Online Shop. The Privacy Policy contains, above all, the principles concerning the
processing of data by the Controller in the Online Shop, including the basis, purpose, scope and period of personal data
processing and the rights of data subjects as well as information regarding the use of cookies and analytical tools in the
Online Shop.
1.2. The Controller of the personal data collected via the Online Shop shall be IGA PALARSKA, running a business under the

number: 692614073 – hereinafter referred to as “Controller” and being simultaneously the Service Provider of the Online
Shop and the Seller.
1.3. Personal data in the Online Shop shall be processed by the Controller in accordance with the binding legal regulations, in
particular the Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection
of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, and repealing
Directive 95/46/EC (General Data Protection Regulation) hereinafter referred to as “GDPR” or “GDPR Regulation”. The
official text of the GDPR Regulation: http://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/PL/TXT/?uri=CELEX%3A32016R0679 .
1.4. Using the Online Shop, including shopping, is voluntary. Similarly, providing personal data by the Service Recipient or the
Customer using the Online Shop is voluntary, subject to two exceptions: (1) entering into contracts with the Controller –
failure to provide the personal data necessary for the conclusion and performance of the Sales Contract or a contract for
the provision of an Electronic Service with the Controller in the cases and within the scope indicated on the website of the
Online Shop and the Terms and Conditions of the Online Shop and this Privacy Policy shall result in no possibility to enter
into the contract. Providing personal data is a contractual requirement in such a case and if the data subject is willing to
enter into the contract with the Controller, they shall be obligated to provide the required data. The scope of the data
required to enter into the contract is each time specified in advance on the website of the Online Shop and in the Terms
and Conditions of the Online Shop; (2) statutory obligations of the Controller – specifying the personal data is a statutory
requirement resulting from the commonly binding legal regulations obligating the Controller to process the personal data
(e.g. processing data to fiscal books and ledgers) and failure to specify the data will render it impossible for the Controller
to perform the obligations.
1.5. The Controller assures due diligence to protect the interest of persons being data subjects, in particular being responsible
and liable for and assuring that the data collected are: (1) processed in accordance with the Act; (2) collected for specific,
legal purposes and not subject to further processing inconsistent with the purposes; (3) correct as regards the subject
matter and adequate as regards the purpose of the processing; (4) stored in a form making it possible to identify the
people they apply to, no longer than it proves necessary to attain the purpose of processing and (5) processed in a
manner ensuring security of the personal data, including the protection against illicit or illegal processing or accidental
loss, damage or destruction, with the use of appropriate technical and organisational measures.
1.6. Taking into account the nature, scope, context and purpose of processing as well as the risk of breaching the rights or
freedoms of natural persons with varied likelihood and degree of threat, the Controller is implementing appropriate
technical and organisational measures so that the processing takes place pursuant to the Regulation and it is possible to
show it. The measures are reviewed and updated, as necessary. The Controller applies technical measures preventing the
acquisition and modification of personal data sent electronically by unauthorised persons.
1.7. Any words, phrases and acronyms used in this privacy policy starting with a capital letter (e.g. Seller, Online Shop,
Electronic Service) shall be understood in accordance with the definition contained in the Terms and Conditions of the
Online Shop available on the websites of the Online Shop.

5. PROFILING IN THE ONLINE SHOP
5.1. The GDPR Regulation obligates the Controller to inform about the automated decision-making process, including profiling
referred to in Article 22, par. 1 and 4 of the GDPR Regulation, and – at least in those cases – the vital information
concerning the decision-making process as well as the meaning and foreseeable consequences of processing for the
person being the data subject. Bearing in mind the above, the Controller specifies in this point of the privacy policy the
information concerning the possible profiling.
5.2. The Controller may use profiling in the Online Shop for direct marketing purposes, yet the decisions made on its basis by
the Controller do not concern the conclusion or rejection to conclude the Sales Contract, or the possibility to make use of
Electronic Services in the Online Shop. The result of profiling in the Online Shop may be e.g. discount for a given person,
sending a discount code, reminding about unfinished purchase process, sending Product offers, which may be related to
the interests or preferences of the person, or offering better conditions as compared with the standard offer of the
Online Shop. Regardless of profiling, the person makes decisions freely, whether they want to use the discount given, or
better conditions and buy a product in the Online Shop.
5.3. Profiling in the Online Shop consists in automatic analysis or forecast of the conduct of a given person on the website of
the Online Shop, e.g. by adding a given Product to the cart, browsing the page of a given product in the Online Shop, or
the analysis of the history of purchase in the Online Shop. The condition for such profiling is for the Controller to have the
personal data of the person, so that they can later send them e.g. a discount code.
5.4. The data subject shall have the right not to depend on the decision, which is only based on automated processing,
including profiling, and has some legal effects on the person or similarly affects them.

have access to their personal data, rectify, erase (“the right to be forgotten”) or restrict the processing and shall have the

Articles 1522 of the GDPR Regulation.
6.2. The right to withdraw the consent at any time – the person whose data are being processed by the Controller on the
basis of the consent given (pursuant to Article 6, par. 1, point a) or Article 9, par. 2, point a) of the GDPR Regulation), they
shall have the right to withdraw their consent at any time without any impact on the compatibility with the right to

particular situation – as regards the processing of their personal data based on Article 6, par. 1, point e) (public interest
or official authority) or f) (legitimate interest of the controller) in the case of profiling based on the provisions. The
Controller in such a case must stop processing the personal data, unless they show the existence of legally significant and
justified bases for the processing, overriding the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject, or the bases for
determining, pursuing or defending the claims.
6.5. The right to object as regards direct marketing – in the case the personal data are being processed for the needs of direct
marketing, the data subject shall have the right, at any time, to lodge a complaint as regards the processing of their

direct marketing.
