  1. Legal basis in the European Union (EU) for the collection and processing of your Personal Data
  • “Personal Data” refers to any information relating to an identifiable natural person who can be identified directly or indirectly (“Data Subject”).
  • The GDPR applies to the data processing activities of businesses with an establishment in the EU or where the processing activities relate to offering goods or services to individuals in the EU, or monitoring the behaviour of individuals in the EU.
  • If you are an individual residing in the EU, we may collect and process Personal Data about you in accordance with the GDPR. A “Controller” says how and why personal data is processed and a “Processor” acts on behalf of the Controller by processing the data. Bepoz operates both as a Controller and a Processor when controlling or processing the Personal Data of customers, employees and resellers.
  • When you use our Website, we process Personal Data on your behalf as a Data Processor where you are the Data Controller and otherwise to the extent that we are a Data Controller as defined in the GDPR.
  • The legal basis we rely on to collect and process your Personal Data is based on the following:
  • Contractual basis. This legal basis applies to the collection or processing of Personal Data in order to fulfil or perform a contract with you, or to which you are a party.
  • Consensual basis. This applies where you have provided your consent to the collection or processing of Personal Data for a specific purpose (for example, to provide you with marketing updates). You can withdraw your consent at any time by updating your email preferences, opting-out, or by contacting us directly.
  • Legitimate interests. This applies where we have a legitimate interest to collect or process your Personal Data. For example, it may be to respond to an enquiry about our Services.
  • Legal obligations. This applies where it is necessary to disclose your Personal Data to comply with a legal obligation.
  • When we use third-parties to process your Personal Data on our behalf, we ensure that the processing of this Personal Data is confidential, pursuant to our documented instructions and in accordance with the legal basis for the processing.
  • We only employ third-party data processors that are compliant with the GDPR requirements and that have sufficient security measures in place to protect and safeguard your data.
  • In the event of a Personal Data breach including any breach of security that leads to the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure of, or access to Personal Data transmitted, stored or process, we will report the breach to you (where we are required to do so under the GDPR) without undue delay after becoming aware of the breach, and not later than 72 hours after the breach giving you a description of the nature of the breach.
