"Cookies" usually contain the name of the website from which they come from, their storage time on the terminal device and a unique number.

What do we use "cookies" for?
Cookies are contained in the HTTP protocol, which is used to communicate Internet server with the browser. It consists of: the key defining the name of values, values and lifetime after which the browser should remove the cookie. Their functions are mostly standard ones provided for browser settings. Cookies are used in order to adjust the web content to user preferences and to increase the usability and personalization of the content of websites.

What "cookies" files are used by us?
There are two standard types of "cookies" files - "session" and "permanent". The first of these are temporary files that remain on the user's device, until logging out from the website or disabling software (a web browser). "Permanent" files remain on the user's device for the time specified in the parameters of "cookies" files or until they are manually deleted by the user. "Cookies" files used by the website operator partners, in particular users of the website, are subject to their own privacy policy.

Privacy Policy and "cookies" files
When the user uses our site, we use cookies to identify the browser or user device - "cookies" collect various types of information, which in principle do not constitute personal data (do not allow for the identification of the user). However, some information, depending on their content and use, may be associated with a specific person and be considered as personal data. In connection with the eobuwie.pl policy, the data is encrypted, which makes it impossible to prevent unauthorized access to them.

Profiling
By using the cookies technology used on our website, it is possible to learn about the preferences of users - for example, by analysing how often they visit our website, or what products they view the most. Analysis of online behaviour helps us to better understand users' habits and expectations and to adapt to their needs and interests. Thanks to this technology, we can not only present to the user the advertisement tailored to it (for example, the advertisement resulting from the recent review of only shoes in the category "shoes") and from the available offers primarily present those that best suit the needs of the user, but also we can create and present dedicated ads, offers or discounts not available to other people.

Based on cookies, we use technology that allows us to reach users who have previously visited our website on other websites that they visit, including those belonging to entities cooperating with our partners.

The lack of connection between the advertisement displayed to the user and his interests and needs may be disruptive to him. We believe that it is more attractive and practical for the user to receive the message that corresponds to his interests and needs to be identified as a result of the analysis of his previous behaviour based on the technology of cookies. Therefore, we are interested in following advertising content for a user using different websites to provide advertising content adapted to his previous internet activity.

Third party cookie files

Each time, the scope of data required to conclude an appropriate contract is indicated in the Online Shop, (we mark the data, the application of which is necessary to conclude the contract / use a certain functionality) as part of other communication channels with the Customer or in the Regulations. The consequence of not submitting Personal Data may be the inability to effectively perform the above-mentioned activities.

On what legal basis do we use information about you?
The basis for the processing of the Customer's Personal Data is primarily the necessity to perform the contract to which he is a party or the need to take action at his request prior to its conclusion (Article 6 paragraph 1 letter b) of GDPR). This applies mainly to Personal Data provided in the form when registering an Account, placing Orders and concluding the Sale Agreement ,or making Reservations in the Online Shop. as well as when subscribing to the newsletter. Also in the case of Personal Data provided to us in connection with the Customer's complaint, the legal basis for their processing is the necessity to perform / service the contract for the sale of advertised goods.

In the case of data processing operations for the aforementioned marketing purposes, with the exception of those that are implemented as part of the newsletter, which operates on the basis of the regulations, the basis for such processing is the fulfillment of the objectives resulting from the legally legitimate interests pursued by the Administrator or his partners (Article 6 paragraph 1 letter f)RODO) of the GDPR), whereas in this case partners do not participate in processing of Client's personal data. On the other hand the range in which Administrator's partners can access this information – lawful basis of such processing is Client's voluntary consent (Article 6 paragraph 1 letter f)RODO). In turn, the presentation, creation, award and implementation of advertisements, offers or promotions (rebates), which are based only on automated processing, including profiling, as much as possible, tailored to the Customer's preferences, which may significantly influence Customer's consumer decision are based on a voluntary consent of the Customer (Article 6 (1) (a) of the GDPR)(Article 22 paragraph 2 letter C). However, this applies only to mature Clients.

In other (other) purposes, the Customer's Personal Data may be processed on the basis of:

voluntarily expressed consents - for example, persons joining contests, persons using contact forms (Article 6 (1) (a) of the GDPR);
applicable law when processing is necessary to fulfill the legal obligation of the Administrator e.g. when based on tax regulations or accounting one, The Administrator settles concluded sales contracts (Article 6 (1) (c) of the GDPR);
indispensable for purposes other than those mentioned above resulting from legitimate interests pursued by the Administrator or by a third party, in particular to determine, assert or defend claims, market and statistical analyses (Article 6 (1) (f) RODO).
Is your data subject to profiling, and what does this mean for you?
The administrator for the purpose of presenting general advertisements, offers or promotions (discounts), intended for all Clients, in a manner adapted to the interests of a given client, may read his preferences, e.g. by analyzing how often he visits the Online Shop, also what products he buys or reserves in offline Shops owned by STEEL Shoes&Boots. This allows a better understanding of the client's expectations and adaptation to his needs- however, it does not significantly affect his decisions. Thanks to the use of advanced technologies by the Administrator, the above activities will often be performed by the system in an automated manner, thanks to which the content sent will be the most up-to-date and the client will be able to quickly become familiar with them.

In the case of adult customers, the analysis of interests or preferences will also be used to create, award and implement dedicated and customized ads, offers or promotions (discounts) in an automated manner, which may cause legal effects or have a similar effect on it, potentially limiting access to other clients (this option is not available to customers who are not adults and did not consent to such activities of the Administrator).It differs from ordinary "Profiling" ( i.e. adapting our messages, banners to your interests), because such activity can significantly influence your decisions as a consumer, so e.g. it may result in creating individual limited-time offer based on history of your purchases and online behaviour on our website, this offer will not be available to other customers. The more often a client uses the services of the Administrator and purchases its products, the better promotions and surprises can be prepared for him.

The Administrator may also process information about the Customer's preferences, which may sometimes have the nature of Personal Data, and were granted to the Administrator by the Customer voluntarily through the functionality of the Application, including to limit the presented Products or Promotion to a specific size (e.g. shoe size) or to specific categories (e.g., Men's / Women's / Children's products).

Do you share with us with the access to such areas as your phone while using our application?
In order to activate the functionality of the Application consisting in scanning and saving the bar codes of Products, presenting Products based on images uploaded by the Client, recording information enabling the operation of the Application in off-line mode, searching via the geolocation of the Seller's offline Shop or a specific collection point parcel, the Administrator may obtain, including with the consent of the customer, access to the following areas of the client's mobile device:

camera;
memory of the device;
geolocation.

The catalogue of recipients of the data also results from the consent of the client, or from the law, and is clarified as a result of actions taken by him in the Online Shop or Application.
