Under the Data Protection Law, we must have a legal basis to process the personal data you have provided us with. In most cases we will process your personal data because we have a contract with you like the delivery of an order or to provide you with other service you have opted in for. When given the permission by you, we will also use your personal data to send you marketing communications that we believe will be of interest to you. You can opt out of these marketing communications from us at any time.

We will never retain your personal data for longer than is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which you provided that personal data, unless if the law permits or requires that we retain it for longer. This retention period will vary depending on the purpose the personal data is provided for.
