As a data subject, you have the following rights: 

2.1 Right of access (Art. 15 GDPR): You have the right to be informed at any time of the categories of personal data processed, the purposes of processing, any recipients or categories of recipients of your personal data and the planned storage period. 

2.2 Right of rectification (Art. 16 GDPR): You have the right to request the rectification or completion of personal data concerning you that is incorrect or incomplete. 

2.3 Right to erasure („right to be forgotten“) (Art. 17 GDPR): You have the right to request the immediate erasure of your personal data. In particular, we are obliged as the controller to delete your data in the following cases: 

• Your personal data is no longer needed for the purposes for which it was collected. 

• A processing of your personal data took place solely on the basis of your consent, which you have now withdrawn, and there is no other legal basis that legitimises a processing of your personal data. 

• You have objected to a processing which is based on the legitimate or public interest and we cannot prove that there are legitimate grounds for processing. 

• Your personal data has been processed unlawfully. 

• The erasure of your personal data is necessary in order to comply with a legal obligation to which we are subject. 

• Your personal data has been collected in connection with information society services offered in accordance with Art. 8 I GDPR. 

Please be aware that the right to erasure is subject to a limitation in the following cases, so that a deletion is excluded: 

• Your personal data is used to exercise the right to freedom of expression and information. 

• Your personal data serves to fulfil a legal obligation to which we are subject. 

• Your personal data is used to carry out a task that is in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority that has been assigned to us.

• Your personal data serve for us to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.  

2.4 Right of restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR): You also have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted; in such a case, your personal data will be excluded from any processing. This right applies if: 

• You contest the accuracy of your personal data and we have to verify the accuracy of your personal data. 

• The processing of your personal data is unlawful and instead of erasing your personal data, you request a restriction of processing. 

• We no longer need your personal data for the fulfilment of the specific purposes, but you still need this personal data to establish, exercise or defend legal claims. 

• You object to the processing of your personal data and it has not yet been determined whether your or our legitimate reasons override this. 

2.5 Right of data portability (Art. 20 GDPR): You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you that you have provided to us as a controller in a structured, common and machine-readable format and to transfer it to another controller. Furthermore, you also have the right to request that your personal data be transferred from us to another controller, insofar as this is technically feasible. 

The requirements for the applicability of data portability are: 

• Your personal data is automatically processed based on your consent or a contract.

2.6 Right to object (Art. 21 GDPR): You have the right at any time to object to the processing of your personal data on grounds arising from your particular situation. This also applies to profiling. The requirement for this is that the processing is based on a legitimate interest on our part (Art. 6 I 1 lit. f GDPR) or the public interest (Art. 6 I 1 lit. e GDPR). 

Furthermore, you may also at any time object to the processing of your personal data for the purposes of direct marketing or profiling linked to such direct marketing. 

Should you object to the processing of your personal data based on a legitimate interest, we will check in each individual case whether we can show grounds worthy of protection that override your interests and rights and freedoms. In the event that there are no reasons worthy of protection on our part or your interests as well as rights and freedoms override our own, your personal data will no longer be processed. An exception is made if your personal data is still used for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims. 

If you object to the processing of your personal data for the purposes of direct marketing or profiling, insofar as this is linked to such direct marketing, your personal data will no longer be processed for these purposes. 

2.7 Right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority (Art. 77 GDPR): You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority at any time, in particular with a supervisory authority in the Member State of your residence, place of work or place of suspected infringement, if you consider that the processing of personal data concerning you is in breach of the data protection regulations.

3 General information regarding the topic „purposes“ 

As a matter of principle, the processing of your personal data by us is always linked to a specified, explicit and legitimate purpose, which has already been defined before the processing activity is commenced, in accordance with the principle of purpose limitation under Art. 5 I lit. b GDPR. In the further course of this privacy policy, when a processing activity is cited, a description of the specific purpose is also included. 

4 General information regarding the topic „legal bases“ 

We process your personal data in accordance with the GDPR. Accordingly, the processing of your personal data is always founded on a legal basis. Article 6 of the GDPR defines legal bases for the processing of personal data. 

1. Legal bases for the processing of personal data 

Consent 

If we obtain your consent for the processing of your personal data, the processing will be carried out on the legal basis of Art. 6 I 1 lit. a GDPR. The following example serves to clarify this legal basis: You receive advertising from us by electronic mail and/or telephone and have given your prior consent. 

Contract or pre-contractual measure 

If the processing of your personal data is necessary for the fulfilment of a contract with you or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures taken in response to your request, the legal basis on which the processing of your personal data is based is Art. 6 I 1 lit. b GDPR. 

Legal obligation 

In cases where the processing of your personal data is necessary to comply with a legal obligation to which we are subject, this processing is based on Art. 6 I 1 lit. c GDPR. 

Vital interest 

Should the processing of your personal data be necessary to protect your vital interests or those of another person, this processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 I 1 lit. d GDPR. 

Public interest 

In cases where we process your personal data in order to perform a task which is in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority delegated to us, Art. 6 I 1 lit. e GDPR constitutes the legal basis. 

Legitimate interest 

If the processing of personal data is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and at the same time the interests, basic rights and fundamental freedoms of the data subject, which require the protection of personal data, do not override our legitimate interest, Art. 6 I 1 lit. f GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing. 

2. Legal bases for the processing of special categories of personal data 

If, in extraordinary cases, we need to process special categories of personal data, such as 

• data on racial or ethnic origin (e.g. skin color or special languages), 

• data on political opinions (e.g. party memberships), 

• data on religious or philosophical beliefs (e.g. membership of a sect), 

• data on trade union membership, 

• genetic data, 

• biometric data (e.g. fingerprints or photographs), 

• health data (e.g. identification numbers for disabilities), 

• or data concerning the sex life or sexual orientation 

by you, this processing is based on one of the following legal bases, which are de-fined in Article 9 GDPR: 

Explicit consent 

If you have given us your explicit consent for the processing of the above categories of personal data, this constitutes the legal basis for the processing in accordance with Art. 9 II lit. a GDPR. 

Performing duties under social security/protection and employment law 

If the processing of special categories of personal data relating to you is necessary in order to comply with a legal obligation arising from social security/protection or employment law, the legal basis for this processing is Art. 9 II lit. b GDPR. 

Protection of vital interests 

If the processing of special categories of personal data relating to you should be necessary to protect your vital interests or those of another person, such processing is carried out pursuant to Art. 9 II lit. c GDPR. 

Manifestly public data 

Insofar as special categories of personal data of yours are processed, which have previously been made public by yourself, the processing of these data is based on Art. 9 II lit. e GDPR. 

Establishment / Exercise / Defence of legal claims 

Insofar as the processing of the special categories of personal data relating to you serves us to establish, exercise or defend legal claims, Art. 9 II lit. f GDPR constitutes the legal basis for the processing. 

Substantial public interest 

In the case of the processing of special categories of personal data concerning you in order to safeguard a substantial public interest arising from EU or national law, the processing is based on Art. 9 II lit. g GDPR. 

Assessment of the person's work capacity or other medical purposes such as health care 

If the processing of special categories of personal data relating to you arises from a law of the EU or a Member State or a contract concluded with a member of a health profession and is carried out for the purposes of preventive health care, occupational medicine, assessment of an employee's work capacity, medical diagnosis, care or treatment in the health or social field or the management of systems and services in the health or social field, this processing is based on Art. 9 II lit. h GDPR. 

Public interest in the area of public health 

If the processing of special categories of personal data of yours should be necessary for public health reasons, including protection against cross-border health threats such as pandemics, this processing is carried out on the legal basis of Art. 9 II lit. i GDPR. 

Archival purposes, scientific / historical research purposes, statistical purposes 

Should the processing of special categories of personal data relating to you arise from a right of the EU or a member state, which stipulates processing for archiving, scientific or historical research or statistical purposes in the public interest, this processing is based on Art. 9 II lit. j GDPR. 

9. General information regarding the topic „obligation to preserve records and time limits of erasure“ 

Unless otherwise stated, we delete personal data in accordance with Art. 17 GDPR or restrict its processing in accordance with Art. 18 GDPR. Apart from the retention periods stated in this privacy policy, we process and store your personal data only as long as the data are necessary for the fulfilment of our contractual and legal obligations. Personal data that are no longer required after the purpose has been fulfilled will be regularly deleted, unless further processing is required for a limited period of time, which may result from other legally permissible purposes. 

10. General information regarding the topic „disclosure of personal data“ 

Recipient of your data 

We do not sell or rent user data in principle. A transfer to third parties beyond the scope described in this privacy policy will only take place if this is necessary for the processing of the respective requested service. For this purpose, we work together with service providers in the areas of marketing, sales, IT, logistics and human resources, among others. We select these service providers extremely carefully. In other cases we transfer data to requesting governmental authorities. However, this only takes place if there is a legal obligation to do so, for example if a court order exists. 

Locations of the processing of your personal data 

In principle, we process your data in Bulgaria and in other European countries (EU/EEA). If your data is processed in countries outside the European Union or the European Economic Area (i.e. in so-called third countries), this will only take place if you have expressly consented to it, if it is stipulated by law or if it is necessary for our service provision to you. If, in these exceptional cases, we process data in third countries, this will be done by ensuring that certain measures are taken (i.e. on the basis of an adequacy decision by the EU Commission or by presenting suitable guarantees in accordance with Art. 44ff. GDPR).
