  1. PERSONAL DATA PROFILING AND ITS IMPACT ON YOU

The Administrator may process your personal data for profiling purposes, which means analyzing the frequency of your visits to the Online Store as well as purchases or product reservations. This action enables the tailoring of advertisements, offers, or promotions (discounts) to your interests, but it does not significantly influence your decisions. Profiling is carried out using automated systems, ensuring the relevance and speed of the presented content.

 

Additionally, the Administrator may process data regarding your preferences, which may sometimes be considered personal data. You may voluntarily provide this data on the Online Store, for example, by specifying your preferred size or selecting a product category (e.g., paintings, sculptures, style). This allows for limiting the products or promotions presented to those that best meet your needs.

The analysis of your activity on the website also helps to identify potential abuse, such as ad fraud.

Recipients of your personal data are entities cooperating with the Administrator in the provision of services. These include technological partners supporting the operation of the Online Store, such as hosting or IT service providers, courier companies delivering orders, entities processing electronic payments or credit card payments, and companies offering credit services. Furthermore, your data may be shared with companies from the 3DFORM Sp. z o.o. Group and companies supporting the Administrator in marketing activities, which use cookies and similar technologies within the Online Store. A list of these entities is available in point 11 of the Cookie Policy. Recipients are determined based on the type of services you use, your consent, and legal regulations.

 

 

  1. TRANSFER OF DATA TO THIRD COUNTRIES

 

Customer Personal Data may be transferred to countries outside the European Economic Area (EEA), especially when the Administrator uses tools offered by international companies, such as Google. Such data transfer is carried out based on the standard data protection clauses adopted by the European Commission and data processing agreements, in accordance with the requirements of the GDPR.

 

The Administrator ensures that appropriate security measures are in place to protect your data and ensure that partners from third countries provide an adequate level of data protection. Additionally, you can obtain a copy of the security measures applied by the Administrator when transferring data to a third country by contacting us using the details provided in point II of the Policy.

Every Customer has the right, at any time, to:

  1. a) File a complaint with the President of the Personal Data Protection Office (ul. Stawki 2, 00-193 Warsaw);

  4. d) Request rectification, restriction of processing (e.g., in the case of incorrect Personal Data), or deletion (e.g., if the data was processed unlawfully);
  5. e) Withdraw consent at any time, provided that the withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal;
  6. f) Object to the processing of Personal Data for the purposes of the legitimate interests of the Administrator or a third party, if there are no overriding legal grounds for the processing. In the case of processing data for direct marketing purposes, the Customer has the right to object to the processing of their data, including profiling, at any time. In such case, the data should not be further processed for direct marketing purposes.

 

  1. SENDING COMMERCIAL INFORMATION (E.G., TO YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS)

The Administrator has the ability to communicate remotely with the Customer (e.g., via email, SMS). Commercial information regarding the Administrator's activities or entities cooperating with them (including companies from the 3DFORM Sp. z o.o. Group) may only be sent after the Customer has given their consent to receive such information, for example, by accepting the terms and conditions of the Newsletter service.

 


  1. PERSONAL DATA SECURITY

The Administrator, taking into account the state of technical knowledge, the cost of implementation, the nature, scope, context, and purposes of data processing, as well as the risk of violating the rights or freedoms of individuals, applies appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect the Personal Data being processed. These measures ensure protection against unauthorized access, removal, unlawful processing, and changes, as well as against loss, damage, or destruction of data. Providing detailed information about the technical and organizational measures applied may undermine their effectiveness and thus jeopardize the protection of Personal Data.

The Administrator applies, among others, the following safeguards:

  1. a) Protection of the data set against unauthorized access;
  2. b) SSL certificate on the pages of the Online Store where Personal Data is provided;
  3. c) Encryption of data used for user authentication in the Online Store;

COOKIE POLICY OF THE ONLINE STORE CANVASSHAPES.COM


  1. WHAT DOCUMENT ARE YOU DEALING WITH?

This cookie policy and similar technologies of the Online Store ("Policy") is an informational document, which means that it does not impose any obligations on you (it is not a contract or terms and conditions). The purpose of this Policy is to transparently present the principles of the operation of the Online Store in relation to the use of cookies and similar technologies.

 

In this document, the Administrator is the company 3DFORM Sp. z o.o., located at Wlokniarek 10, 67-100, Nowa Sól, Poland. The company is registered in the National Court Register, maintained by the District Court, under the KRS number: 0001060783, with NIP: PL9252142299, REGON: 526480398.

 

You can contact the Administrator using the above address, email: canvasshapes.com or phone: +48 68 356 90 01 (charge as per your operator’s standard rates). If cookies contain your personal data, the Administrator will also be the administrator of your personal data. The rules for the processing of personal data are described in the Privacy Policy.

 

  1. COOKIES

 

  1. WHO DO COOKIES AFFECT?

The Administrator uses cookie technology and similar functionalities in the Online Store. This applies to any person visiting the Online Store, regardless of whether they are Customers ("Visitor"). Each Visitor has the option to consent to the use of cookies. Through this technology, information about the Visitor may be collected, such as how they use the Online Store, their interests, or preferences regarding displayed advertisements.

 

  1. WHAT TECHNOLOGY DO WE USE?

The Online Store uses technology that allows for storing and accessing information on a computer or other device connected to the network (primarily using cookies or similar solutions). The purpose of these actions is to ensure security, ease of use, collect statistical data, identify ad fraud abuses, and tailor advertisements to the Visitor's interests. Advertisements may come from the Administrator or third parties we collaborate with.

The Visitor has the option to consent to the use of cookies that may automatically collect information about their online activity and device location (if allowed by cookie settings and given consent). If the website does not allow for setting the scope of cookies, the settings of the browser used by the Visitor will apply.

Since the Administrator may use technologies with functionalities similar to cookies, the provisions of this Policy also apply to these technologies.

 

  1. WHAT ARE COOKIES?

Cookies are small text files sent by the server and stored on the Visitor's device (typically on the computer or mobile device's disk). They contain information that allows the Online Store to adapt to how the Visitor uses it and also enable the collection of statistical data about the Online Store. These data include, among others, information about the pages visited, downloaded items, the domain name of the Internet service provider, or the Visitor's country of origin.

 

Similar technologies may be used to interact with the Visitor's device without storing information on their device but only on a dedicated server. Identifiers are then created for the duration of the session in the Online Store and deleted after the session ends.

 

  1. DO COOKIES COLLECT YOUR PERSONAL DATA?

When using the Online Store, cookies collect information that usually does not constitute personal data, as they do not allow for the direct identification of the Visitor. However, some information, depending on its content and use, may be associated with a specific person. For example, if linked with data provided during the registration of an Account in the Online Store, they may be considered personal data.

 

With regard to data collected by cookies that may be considered personal data, the provisions of the Privacy Policy apply. This especially concerns the rights of data subjects, information about data recipients, and their transfer to third countries (outside the European Economic Area).

 

Information about data collected by cookies is also provided in the informational clause displayed during the first visit to the Online Store (the so-called cookie banner).

 

  1. WHAT IS THE LEGAL BASIS FOR USING COOKIES?

Cookies are obtained and stored based on the Visitor’s consent, except in cases where they are necessary for the proper functioning of the Online Store, ensuring its security, and performing basic functions, such as service stability and statistical operations. In such cases, the use of cookies is based on legal regulations, particularly Article 173(3)(2) of the Telecommunications Law, which enables the provision of electronic services.

 

Consent for the use of cookies may be expressed during the first visit to the Online Store via the cookie banner. The choice of cookie usage scope can be changed in the Settings on our site, but some functions of the Online Store may not work properly if cookies are blocked. Additionally, the settings of the internet browser can be used to block certain types of cookies, though this may not affect technologies similar to cookies.

 

If cookies contain personal data, their processing is based on the legitimate interest of the Administrator or a third party (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR), which includes, among other things, identifying ad fraud abuses, adapting content to user preferences, and marketing products and services of the Administrator and its partners. If third parties have direct access to this information, processing is based on their legitimate interest or the Visitor’s consent.

 

In cases where cookies are necessary to provide services or ensure security, their processing may be deemed necessary for the performance of a contract (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR), e.g., when the Visitor decides to use the website.

 

If cookies enable communication for marketing purposes (e.g., webpush), the use of such communication methods is based on additional, voluntary consent, which can be withdrawn at any time without affecting the lawfulness of earlier actions.

  1. WHAT DO WE USE COOKIES FOR?

The information collected by cookies marked as "necessary" (and other technologies with similar functions) is primarily used to ensure the proper functioning of the Online Store and the execution of its key functions. This includes monitoring traffic, ensuring service stability, managing logistics processes, and other activities necessary to fulfill the contract with customers. Cookies also help ensure the security of services, such as detecting abuses like bot traffic and taking preventive actions.

These actions are carried out regardless of cookie preference settings and browser settings, as their purpose is to ensure the stability and security of the Online Store's operation.

Cookies make it easier to use the Online Store, for example by "remembering" information entered once, eliminating the need to re-enter it. Additionally, cookies can be used to customize content, including ads, according to the Visitor's preferences.

Cookies also increase the usability and personalization of the Online Store's content. They allow for the presentation of personalized advertisements, offers, and promotions tailored to the Visitor's interests and location (but their goal is not to have legal effects or significantly influence user decisions). With cookie technology, the Administrator can analyze Visitor preferences, for example by monitoring the frequency of visits and the types of products purchased in the 3DFORM physical stores.

Cookie technology also enables the presentation of ads to Visitors based on their recent activities, e.g., ads related to product categories that were recently viewed. Furthermore, based on cookies, the Administrator can display ads to users who previously visited the Online Store while browsing other websites belonging to 3DFORM Sp. z o.o.

 

  1. CAN YOU OBJECT TO THE USE OF INFORMATION COLLECTED FROM COOKIES?

The Visitor has the right to object to the Administrator's actions based on data from cookies, to the extent that processing is based on the legitimate interest of the Administrator (as described earlier).

If the Visitor has consented to data processing, e.g., for the purpose of presenting and delivering personalized ads, offers, or promotions, they have the right to withdraw this consent at any time. However, withdrawing consent does not affect the legality of actions taken based on consent before its withdrawal or communication based on additional consents obtained (e.g., webpush notifications).

 

If there are any doubts regarding the use of cookies or the data collected through them, the Visitor can contact the Administrator. Contact details can be found in point I of the Policy.

 

  1. WHAT TYPES OF COOKIES DO WE USE AND ARE THEY HARMFUL?

The cookies used in the Online Store are not harmful to the Visitor or the computer/device they use. The Online Store uses two types of cookies:

Session cookies – they are stored on the Visitor's device until they log out of the page or close the browser.

Persistent cookies – they remain on the Visitor's device for a time specified in the parameters of these cookies or until they are manually deleted in the browser.

We also use technology similar to cookies, which generates one-time, self-destructive identifiers in the session storage space. These identifiers are destroyed after closing the store's website.

 

 

  1. HOW LONG WILL THE INFORMATION COLLECTED BY COOKIES BE STORED?

The retention period for information collected by cookies mainly depends on the purposes for which they are processed and the legal basis. In the case of web push communication, data will be stored until the user opts out of this form of contact (withdraws consent).

Personal data collected by cookies related to a Visitor who is not a Customer of the Online Store (i.e. has not placed an order, reserved a product, or has an account) will be stored until an objection is raised. The Administrator may delete this data if it is not used for marketing purposes or other legitimate purposes, such as statistical analysis, for 3 years, unless the law requires longer processing.

Some data may be stored longer in the case of claims against the Administrator or to pursue claims by the Administrator or to defend against claims by third parties, for the period of limitation specified by law, especially the Civil Code.

In all cases, the longer retention period of personal data applies. Detailed information about data processing can be found in the Privacy Policy.

 

  1. HOW TO DELETE / BLOCK COOKIES?

The Visitor can change the way cookies are used by managing consent in the privacy settings on our website or by changing the browser settings (depending on the solutions implemented by the Administrator).

If you use browser settings, the way to delete cookies depends on the browser. Information on how to delete cookies can be found in the "Help" section of your browser. Deleting cookies does not automatically delete personal data obtained by the Administrator through these cookies.

Example paths to access cookie settings in popular browsers:

Internet Explorer: Tools -> Internet Options -> Privacy

Mozilla Firefox: Tools -> Options -> Privacy
