Why do we process your data (purpose of the processing) and what is the legal basis?

We process personal data in accordance with the provisions of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

We process personal data to fulfil contractual obligations pursuant to Art. 6(1), Subparagraph 1(b) GDPR. In particular this includes:

  • Order confirmations
  • Collecting and transmitting contact data required by mandatory legal provisions by local authorities
  • Access to your account on our website.

We also process your data for the purposes of our legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6(1), Subparagraph 1(f) GDPR

  • so that we can provide you with relevant information about your orders and offers
  • for the purpose of preventing, investigating and prosecuting criminal offences, such as fraud, e.g. credit card or identity fraud, the use of fraudulent means to obtain special terms or fares
  • to enforce legal claims, including debt collection and defence in the event of legal disputes
  • for auditing purposes
  • to safeguard our IT security and operations
  • for advertising, provided that you have not objected to the use of your data
  • To communicate with you, to the extent that an ongoing business relationship with you or your employer already exists, or it is intended to be established (business contacts).

We process your data based on your consent pursuant to Art. 6(1), Subparagraph. 1(a) GDPR for specific purposes, especially:

  • for sending out newsletters with regular offers from Alesethioti
  • for receiving specific information and offers from Alesethioti and partner companies
  • for market research and customer surveys
  • for personalised use of the website and personalised offers
  • to support processes relating to usage of the website, with reminder features and live chats
  • for analytical purposes so that we can optimise our offer for you.

Any consent given can be withdrawn at any time. Withdrawal of consent has effect for the future only and does not affect the lawfulness of data processed until the withdrawal.

Which personal data are you required to provide?

For legally stipulated or contractual requirements, we have marked the respective input fields on our website forms as mandatory, which are to be filled out on your part, so that we can provide you with the desired service.

How long are your data stored?

Your personal data is erased as soon as it is no longer required for the purposes stated. However, if necessary, we must continue to store your data until the retention periods and deadlines expire, set by the legislator or supervisory authorities, which may arise. These generally amount to six to ten years. We may also retain your data until the statutory limitation periods have expired (usually three years), provided that this is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims. After that, the relevant data are routinely erased.

Who receives your data?

In the context of the data processing above and the respective legal bases given (contract performance, legitimate interests, consent or processing obligations under law), your data may be passed on to the following categories of recipients:

  • Alesethioti 
  • other service providers, e.g. for the provision of the website, newsletter dispatch, feedback handling, compiling of international business statistics
  • state agencies and bodies, e.g. based on import and export requirements or police activities and investigations.

In the process, personal data may be transmitted to third countries or international organisations. For your protection and the protection of your personal data, appropriate safeguards are provided for such data transmissions as per and in accordance with legal requirements.

If these transmissions do not have a legal basis or are carried out to a country, for which the EU Commission has not issued an adequacy decision, we use EU standard contractual clauses.

Information about EU standard contractual clauses is available on the European Union website.
