We use your personal data for limited, specified and legitimate purposes explicitly mentioned in this Privacy Policy. In short, we use it only for the purposes of providing you with access to the Website, registering your account, processing your payments, delivering your orders, maintaining and improving the Website, conducting research about our business activities, replying to your enquiries, and pursuing our legitimate business interests. We do not repurpose your personal data. It means that we do not use it for any purposes that are different from the purposes for which your personal data was provided. Below, you can find an overview of the types of personal data that we collect, the purposes for which we use it, and the legal bases on which we rely when processing it.

If you choose to sign up by using your social media account (Facebook or Google), we will have access to your public profile information like your name, email address, or image (please note that you can adjust your privacy settings to limit the data available to us). We use the said information to register and maintain your user account, enable your access to the Website, provide you with the requested services, contact you, if necessary, and maintain our business records.
