The Controller's database may be built and supplemented, in particular, based on information from:

9. Providing personal data, as referred to in the previous point, is particularly necessary for the provision of electronic services within the Online Store and for the conclusion and performance of the Sales Agreement. Providing personal data is voluntary, but failure to provide this data will result in the inability to conclude the agreement.

Users can independently manage their cookie preferences through their web browser settings or using the consent management mechanism available on the website (so-called cookie banner).

Data provided in forms available in the online store (including data originally saved in the PrestaShop system and synchronized with the GetResponse platform) may be transferred to the system, including data regarding purchases, marketing consents, and user activity in the online store. This data is used to send newsletters, automated messages (e.g., welcome messages, post-purchase messages, messages regarding abandoned carts), personalize communication, automatically segment recipients, and analyze the effectiveness of marketing activities based on purchase history and interactions with messages. Processing is carried out on the basis of a concluded data processing agreement and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the GDPR.
