Purpose and legal basis for processing personal data

By agreeing to this privacy statement, you explicitly consent, within the meaning of Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR, to the processing of your personal data for the purposes mentioned below. You can withdraw this consent at any time. However, if you do not provide certain data to us or allow us to process it, we may not be able to serve you effectively.

If you have not explicitly given us consent to process your personal data or if you have withdrawn such consent, the processing of your personal data may still be based on Articles 6(1)(b), (c), and/or (f) of the GDPR. In that case, the processing of your personal data may take place without your consent, provided it is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party, or for the protection of the legitimate interests of iPeople. Additionally, we may have a legal obligation to process your personal data.

We process your personal data for the following purposes:

• Processing your payment
• Sending you our newsletter and/or promotional brochure
• Being able to call or email you if necessary to carry out our services
• Informing you about changes to our services and products
• Delivering goods and services to you

We do not retain your personal data longer than strictly necessary to achieve the purposes for which your data were collected.

Disclosure to third parties

We may share your personal data with third parties if this is compatible with the purposes mentioned above. Disclosure to third parties may be necessary for the performance of the contract we have with you, for the protection of a legitimate interest of ours, or to comply with any legal obligation imposed on us. We conclude a data processing agreement with companies that process your data on our behalf to ensure the same level of security and confidentiality of your data. We remain responsible for these processes. Apart from the situations mentioned above, we will only disclose your personal data to other third parties with your explicit consent.

Commercial purposes

We may use your personal data for commercial purposes, such as informing you about our services or relevant products or services from carefully selected organizations. In that case, you will only be informed at the email address you have provided. If you do not wish to receive information about relevant products or services, you can easily indicate this by clicking “unsubscribe” in the received email.

Your personal data will also be used for market research and optimizing our services. In this context, your personal data will be anonymized and thus will no longer be traceable to you.

Your data will not be sold or shared with third parties for commercial purposes unless you have given your explicit consent.
