If you still have questions on the way we work with your personal data, you can refer to our data protection officer (contact details below).

The meaning of “personal data” is defined in the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

This can include for example, your rightful name, your address, your telephone number or your date of birth. Even information on how you can use this or other websites may contain personal data.

As soon as we have your consent to process personal data, Article 6.1(a) GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing your personal data.

When processing your personal data to perform a contract between you and PAL ROBOTICS SL., Article 6.1(b) GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processes required to conduct pre-contractual activities.

Article 6.1(f) GDPR provides the legal basis for processing when the processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by our company or by a third party and where such interests are not overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject.

Your personal data will be deleted or the processing will be restricted as soon as the data has met the purpose for which it was stored. Storage of the data beyond this may be possible if this is stipulated by European or national legislators in EU directives, laws or other regulations to which the controller is subject. The data will be deleted or its processing will be restricted when a prescribed deadline expires, unless it is necessary to continue storing the data to conclude or perform a contract.
