4. Contract and Legal Obligation, Relevant Legislation

Data processing based on legal obligations or contract fulfilment occurs in the following cases:

1. Contract Fulfilment:
   • Purchases and Order Processing: When you purchase a product or place an order on the www.biomit-world.com website, your personal data (e.g., name, address, email address, phone number, payment details) is processed to fulfil the purchase contract. This includes order processing, delivery, and providing customer support.
   • Billing: The data provided during purchases is used for issuing invoices and managing financial transactions.
2. Fulfilment of Legal Obligations:
   • Tax Obligations: Your personal data is processed and stored in accordance with tax laws (e.g., retaining billing data as required by Act CL of 2017 and Act CXXVII of 2007).
   • Accounting Requirements: Personal data is retained and processed according to accounting laws and regulations.
   • Legal Obligations: In certain cases, laws require data processing and retention, such as complying with official requests or consumer protection regulations.

These data processing activities are based on the data controller’s legitimate interests, the data subjects’ consent, or the applicable laws. In all cases, data processing ensures that the rights and freedoms of the data subjects are not violated.

If the Data Controller receives personal data not from the person establishing contact, obtaining the data subject’s consent is also necessary.

The data processing principles are in line with applicable laws, particularly:

• Act CXII of 2011 – on the Right of Informational Self-Determination and Freedom of Information;
• Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council (April 27, 2016) – on the protection of natural persons concerning the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, and repealing Directive 95/46/EC (General Data Protection Regulation, GDPR);
• Act CL of 2017 on the Rules of Taxation, Section 78 (3) (retention period for receipts) and Act CXXVII of 2007 on Value Added Tax, Section 169 (mandatory elements of invoices).

5. Confidentiality Obligation

The Data Controller and all of the Data Controller’s employees undertake without time limitation to preserve any data and information disclosed to them by the user/customer in any documentation provided, during negotiations, or in any other manner. Particularly, all intellectual creations, ideas, business-related information, and economic data obtained in the course of providing services to the user/customer or outside thereof, which are owned by the user/customer and came into the possession of the Data Controller, whether legally protected or not, and any data and information that the user/customer considers a business secret or justifiably regards as such.

The confidentiality obligation extends to customer data sent by the user/customer. Any personal data received from third parties (address, phone number, demographic data, data on habits) is treated by the Data Controller as a business secret. The Data Controller acknowledges that disclosing such information would violate personal rights; thus, the data is handled confidentially. The Data Controller is not entitled to disclose, publish, or otherwise exploit business secrets, nor use them against the interests of the user/customer. The Data Controller refrains from any conduct that might jeopardize the economic interests of the user/customer.

The Data Controller acknowledges that violating the above obligations may result in criminal and full financial liability under the applicable laws.
