11.3. Procedure for notifying Illegal Content and action in accordance with Article 16 of the Digital Services Act:
11.3.1. Any individual or entity may notify the Service Provider, at the e-mail address [email protected], of the presence of specific items of information that the individual or entity considers to be Illegal Content.
11.3.2. The notice should be sufficiently precise and adequately substantiated.

11.3.3. The notice referred to above shall be considered to give rise to actual knowledge or awareness for the purposes of Article 6 of the Digital Services Act in respect of the specific item of information concerned where it allows the Service Provider, acting diligently, to identify the illegality of the relevant activity or information without a detailed legal examination.
11.3.4. Where the notice contains the electronic contact information of the individual or entity that submitted it, the Service Provider shall, without undue delay, send a confirmation of receipt of the notice to that individual or entity. The Service Provider shall also, without undue delay, notify that individual or entity of its decision in respect of the information to which the notice relates, providing information on the possible means of redress in respect of that decision.
11.3.5. The Service Provider processes all notices that it receives under the mechanism referred to above and takes its decisions in respect of the information to which the notices relate in a timely, diligent, non-arbitrary and objective manner. Where the Service Provider uses automated means for such processing or decision-making, it includes information on such use in the notification referred to in the preceding point.
11.4. Information on the restrictions imposed by the Service Provider in relation to the use of the Online Store with regard to information provided by Service Recipients:
11.4.1. The following rules apply to the Service Recipient when providing any content within the Online Store:
11.4.1.1. the obligation to use the Online Store, including for posting content (e.g. as part of reviews or comments), in accordance with its intended purpose, these Terms and Conditions and in a manner consistent with the law and good practice, having regard to respect for personal rights as well as copyright and intellectual property rights of the Service Provider and third parties;

11.4.1.3. the prohibition on providing unlawful content, including the prohibition on providing Illegal Content;
11.4.1.4. the prohibition on sending unsolicited commercial information (spam) via the Online Store;
11.4.1.5. the prohibition on providing content that violates generally accepted rules of netiquette, including content that is vulgar or offensive;

11.4.1.7. the obligation to use the Online Store in a manner that does not pose a threat to the security of the ICT system of the Service Provider, the Online Store or third parties.
11.4.2. The Service Provider reserves the right to moderate content provided by Service Recipients to the Online Store website. Moderation is carried out in good faith and with due diligence, on the Service Provider's own initiative or upon a notice received, in order to detect, identify and remove Illegal Content or other content inconsistent with the Terms and Conditions, or to disable access to it, or to take the necessary measures to comply with the requirements of European Union law and national law in compliance with European Union law, including the requirements set out in the Digital Services Act, or the requirements contained in the Terms and Conditions.
11.4.3. The moderation process may be carried out manually by a human or may be based on automated or partially automated tools that help the Service Provider identify Illegal Content or other content inconsistent with the Terms and Conditions. Once such content has been identified, the Service Provider decides whether to remove it or disable access to it, or otherwise restricts its visibility, or takes other action it deems necessary (e.g. contacts the Service Recipient in order to clarify concerns and change the content). The Service Provider will inform the Service Recipient who provided the content (if it has their contact details), in a clear and easily comprehensible manner, of its decision, the reasons for it and the available possibilities of appealing against that decision.
11.4.4. In exercising its rights and obligations under the Digital Services Act, the Service Provider is obliged to act in a diligent, objective and proportionate manner and with due regard to the rights and legitimate interests of all parties involved, including recipients of the service, in particular having regard to the rights enshrined in the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union, such as freedom of expression, freedom and pluralism of the media, and other fundamental rights and freedoms.
11.5. Any comments, grievances, complaints, appeals or objections concerning decisions or other actions or failures to act taken by the Service Provider on the basis of a notice received, or decisions of the Service Provider taken in accordance with the provisions of these Terms and Conditions, may be submitted in a manner analogous to the complaint procedure set out in section 6. of the Terms and Conditions. Use of this procedure is free of charge and allows complaints to be submitted electronically to the e-mail address provided.

11.6. The Service Provider handles all comments, grievances, complaints, appeals or objections concerning decisions or other actions or failures to act taken by the Service Provider on the basis of a notice received or a decision taken in a timely, non-discriminatory, objective and non-arbitrary manner. Where a complaint or other submission contains sufficient grounds for the Service Provider to consider that its decision not to act upon the notice is unfounded, or that the information to which the complaint relates is not illegal and not inconsistent with the Terms and Conditions, or contains information indicating that the complainant's conduct does not warrant the measure taken, the Service Provider shall, without undue delay, reverse or change its decision regarding the possible removal of the content or disabling of access to it or other restriction of its visibility, or take other action it deems necessary.
11.7. Service Recipients, and individuals or entities that have submitted notices of Illegal Content, to whom decisions of the Service Provider concerning Illegal Content or content inconsistent with the Terms and Conditions are addressed, have the right to select any out-of-court dispute settlement body certified by the Digital Services Coordinator of a Member State in order to resolve disputes relating to those decisions, including with respect to complaints that have not been resolved by means of the Service Provider's internal complaint-handling system.
12. FINAL PROVISIONS
12.1. Contracts concluded via the Online Store are concluded in Polish or – at the Customer's choice – in the language of the language version of the Online Store which the Customer uses when placing the Order.
12.2. Amendment of the Terms and Conditions:
12.2.1. The Service Provider reserves the right to amend these Terms and Conditions for important reasons, namely: changes in the law; changes in the methods or deadlines of payment or delivery; being subject to a legal or regulatory obligation; changes in the scope or form of the Electronic Services provided; the addition of new Electronic Services; the need to address an unforeseen and imminent threat related to protecting the Online Store, including the Electronic Services and Service Recipients/Customers, from fraud, malware, spam, data breaches or other cybersecurity threats – to the extent that these changes affect the implementation of the provisions of these Terms and Conditions.
12.2.2. Notice of the proposed changes is sent at least 15 days before the date on which those changes take effect, provided that a change may be introduced without observing the 15-day notice period where the Service Provider: (1) is subject to a legal or regulatory obligation under which it is required to amend the Terms and Conditions in a manner which does not allow it to respect the 15-day notice period; or (2) has to exceptionally amend its Terms and Conditions to address an unforeseen and imminent threat related to protecting the Online Store, including the Electronic Services and Service Recipients/Customers, from fraud, malware, spam, data breaches or other cybersecurity threats. In the last two cases referred to in the preceding sentence, the changes take effect immediately, unless it is possible or necessary to apply a longer period for introducing the changes, of which the Service Provider gives notice each time.
12.2.3. In the case of contracts of a continuing nature (e.g. the provision of the Electronic Service – Account), the Service Recipient has the right to terminate the contract with the Service Provider before the expiry of the notice period for the proposed changes. Such termination becomes effective within 15 days of the date of receipt of the notice. Where a contract of a continuing nature has been concluded, the amended Terms and Conditions are binding on the Service Recipient if they have been properly notified of the changes in accordance with the notice period before their introduction and have not terminated the contract within that period. In addition, at any time after receiving notice of the changes, the Service Recipient may accept the changes being introduced and thereby waive the remainder of the notice period. Where a contract other than a continuing contract has been concluded, the amendments to the Terms and Conditions will in no way infringe the rights acquired by the Service Recipient before the date on which the amendments to the Terms and Conditions take effect; in particular, amendments to the Terms and Conditions will not affect Orders already being placed or placed, or Sales Agreements concluded, being performed or performed.
12.2.4. Should an amendment to the Terms and Conditions result in the introduction of any new fees or an increase in existing fees, the consumer has the right to withdraw from the contract.
12.3. In matters not regulated in these Terms and Conditions, the generally applicable provisions of Polish law apply, in particular: the Civil Code; the Polish Act of 18 July 2002 on the provision of electronic services (Dz.U. 2002 nr 144, poz. 1204 ze zm.); the Consumer Rights Act; and other relevant provisions of generally applicable law.
12.4. These Terms and Conditions do not exclude the provisions in force in the state belonging to the European Economic Area in which the Consumer concluding the Agreement with the Seller/Service Provider has their habitual residence, if those provisions cannot be excluded by agreement. In such a case, the Seller/Service Provider guarantees the Consumer the protection granted to them under the provisions which cannot be excluded by agreement and which are in force in the state of their habitual residence.

General information
A summary of the rules for withdrawing from a contract concluded in the ombre.com Online Shop. The binding provisions are those of the Terms and Conditions and the information on the right of withdrawal.
1. Deadline
A consumer may withdraw from the contract without giving any reason within 14 days of the day on which they (or a third party other than the carrier indicated by them) took possession of the product. To meet the deadline, it is sufficient to send the statement before it expires.
2. Statement of withdrawal
The statement may be made in any unambiguous form, in particular: in the Customer account (Create a return), by e-mail to [email protected] or in writing to: ul. Ppłk. Nilskiego-Łapińskiego 46, 18-100 Łapy. You may use the model withdrawal form, but it is not obligatory. The Seller promptly confirms receipt of the statement by e-mail.
3. Sending the product back
The consumer sends the product back to: ul. Ppłk.

The consumer is liable only for any diminished value of the product resulting from handling it beyond what is necessary to establish its nature, characteristics and functioning. The consumer bears the direct cost of returning the product.
4. Refund
The Seller refunds all payments made by the consumer, including the cost of delivering the product (up to the cheapest standard delivery method offered in the Shop), without undue delay and no later than 14 days from the day of receiving the statement of withdrawal — using the same means of payment as the consumer used, unless the consumer expressly agrees to another means that involves no costs for them. The Seller may withhold the refund until it has received the product back or the consumer has supplied proof of having sent it back, whichever is earlier. If the consumer withdraws from the contract only in respect of some of the products in the order, the Seller refunds the price of those products; the cost of delivering the order is refunded only upon withdrawal from the contract in its entirety.
5. Exceptions
The right of withdrawal does not apply in the cases listed in Article 38 of the Polish Consumer Rights Act, in particular to a product made to the consumer's specifications or clearly personalised.

Right of withdrawal
The quickest way to withdraw is our online withdrawal form — all you need is your order number and email address, and the confirmation arrives in your inbox straight away.
The right of withdrawal from a distance contract does not apply to the consumer, among others, in respect of contracts: (1) for the provision of services for which the consumer is obliged to pay the price, where the Seller has fully performed the service with the express and prior consent of the consumer, who was informed before the start of the performance that they would lose the right of withdrawal from the contract once the Seller had performed the service, and acknowledged this; (2) where the subject of the performance is a Product - a movable item (including a movable item with digital elements) - that is non-prefabricated, manufactured according to the consumer's specifications or serving to satisfy the consumer's individualised needs.
Subject to, among others, the exceptions indicated above, as a consumer you have the right to withdraw from a contract concluded in the Online Store within 14 days without giving any reason. The withdrawal period expires after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the goods. To exercise the right of withdrawal, you must inform us of your decision to withdraw from this contract by an unequivocal statement (for example, a letter sent by post or e-mail). You may send the statement, for example:

A model withdrawal form is set out in Annex No. 2 to the Consumer Rights Act and is additionally attached to the terms and conditions of the Online Store. You may use the model withdrawal form, but it is not obligatory.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.

We will carry out such reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement. We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest. If you withdraw from the contract only in respect of some of the goods in the order, we will refund the price of those goods; the delivery costs are refunded only upon withdrawal from the contract in its entirety.

You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods.
The provisions of this notice concerning the consumer also apply to a buyer who is a natural person concluding a contract directly related to their business activity, where the content of that contract shows that it is not of a professional nature for that person, resulting in particular from the subject of the business activity carried out by that person, as made available on the basis of the provisions on the Central Register and Information on Economic Activity (CEIDG).

1. GENERAL PROVISIONS
1.1. This privacy policy of the Online Store is for information purposes only, which means that it does not give rise to any obligations for Service Recipients or Customers of the Online Store. The privacy policy sets out, above all, the rules concerning the processing of personal data by the Administrator in the Online Store, including the grounds, purposes and period of processing of personal data and the rights of data subjects, as well as information on the use of Cookies and analytical tools in the Online Store.
1.2. The controller of the personal data collected via the Online Store is ESPIR SPÓŁKA Z OGRANICZONĄ ODPOWIEDZIALNOŚCIĄ with its registered office in Łapy (registered office address and address for service: ul.

Official text of the GDPR Regulation: https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/PL/TXT/?uri=CELEX%3A32016R0679
1.5. Using the Online Store, including making purchases, is voluntary. Likewise, the related provision of personal data by a Service Recipient or Customer using the Online Store is voluntary, subject to two exceptions: (1) conclusion of contracts with the Administrator – failure to provide, in the cases and to the extent indicated on the Online Store website and in the Terms and Conditions of the Online Store and in this privacy policy, the personal data necessary for the conclusion and performance of a Sales Agreement or a contract for the provision of an Electronic Service with the Administrator results in the inability to conclude such a contract. In such a case, the provision of personal data is a contractual requirement, and if the data subject wishes to conclude a given contract with the Administrator, they are obliged to provide the required data. In each case, the scope of data required to conclude a contract is indicated in advance on the Online Store website and in the Terms and Conditions of the Online Store; (2) statutory obligations of the Administrator – the provision of personal data is a statutory requirement arising from generally applicable provisions of law imposing on the Administrator an obligation to process personal data (e.g. processing of data for the purpose of keeping tax or accounting records), and failure to provide them will prevent the Administrator from performing those obligations.
1.6. The Administrator takes particular care to protect the interests of the persons to whom the personal data processed by it relate, and in particular is responsible for and ensures that the data it collects are: (1) processed lawfully; (2) collected for specified, lawful purposes and not further processed in a manner incompatible with those purposes; (3) factually correct and adequate in relation to the purposes for which they are processed; (4) kept in a form which permits identification of the persons to whom they relate for no longer than is necessary to achieve the purpose of processing; and (5) processed in a manner that ensures appropriate security of the personal data, including protection against unauthorised or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction or damage, using appropriate technical or organisational measures.
1.7. Taking into account the nature, scope, context and purposes of processing as well as the risks of varying likelihood and severity for the rights or freedoms of natural persons, the Administrator implements appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure that processing is performed in accordance with the GDPR Regulation and to be able to demonstrate this. These measures are reviewed and updated where necessary. The Administrator applies technical measures to prevent unauthorised persons from obtaining and modifying personal data transmitted electronically.
1.8.

2. GROUNDS FOR DATA PROCESSING

2.2. The processing of personal data by the Administrator requires, in each case, the existence of at least one of the grounds indicated in point 2.1 of the privacy policy. The specific grounds for the processing of personal data of Service Recipients and Customers of the Online Store by the Administrator are indicated in the next point of the privacy policy – in relation to a given purpose of processing of personal data by the Administrator.
3. PURPOSE, GROUNDS AND PERIOD OF DATA PROCESSING IN THE ONLINE STORE
3.1. In each case, the purpose, grounds and period of processing as well as the recipients of the personal data processed by the Administrator result from actions taken by a given Service Recipient or Customer in the Online Store or by the Administrator. For example, if a Customer decides to make a purchase in the Online Store and chooses payment by bank transfer or cash on delivery, their personal data will be processed for the purpose of performing the concluded Sales Agreement, but will not be made available to an entity handling electronic payments.
3.2. The Administrator may process personal data within the Online Store for the following purposes, on the following grounds and for the periods indicated in the table below:
| Purpose of data processing | Legal basis for data processing | Data retention period |

4. RECIPIENTS OF DATA IN THE ONLINE STORE
4.1. For the proper functioning of the Online Store, including for the performance of concluded Sales Agreements, it is necessary for the Administrator to use the services of external entities (such as a software provider, a courier or a payment service provider). The Administrator uses only the services of such processors that provide sufficient guarantees to implement appropriate technical and organisational measures in such a manner that the processing meets the requirements of the GDPR Regulation and protects the rights of data subjects.
4.2. As a rule, the personal data of Service Recipients and Customers are processed within the European Economic Area (EEA). However, personal data may be transferred outside the EEA where this is necessary to achieve the purposes indicated in this Privacy Policy, in particular in connection with the Administrator's use of tools and services provided by entities established or processing data outside the EEA (e.g. providers of analytical, marketing, cloud or communication services, including Google Ireland Ltd. and Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd. and their affiliates in the United States). The Administrator transfers personal data outside the EEA only where necessary and while ensuring an adequate level of data protection, in particular by: (1) transfer to an entity in a country in respect of which the European Commission has issued a decision finding an adequate level of data protection (e.g. to an entity in the United States certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework); (2) the use of standard data protection contractual clauses adopted by the European Commission; or (3) on the basis of another instrument compliant with Chapter V of the GDPR Regulation. The data subject may obtain a copy of the data transferred to a third country and information on where the applied safeguards have been made available by contacting the Administrator in the manner indicated in this Privacy Policy. A transfer of data outside the EEA may also concern countries in respect of which the European Commission has not issued an adequacy decision. In such cases, the Administrator transfers data only in the cases and on the terms permitted by law.
4.3. The Administrator does not transfer data in every case and not to all recipients or categories of recipients indicated in the privacy policy – the Administrator transfers data only where this is necessary to achieve a given purpose of processing of personal data and only to the extent necessary to achieve it. For example, if a Customer has not consented to marketing Cookies, information about their activity in the Online Store will not be transferred to providers of advertising tools.
4.4. The personal data of Service Recipients and Customers of the Online Store may be transferred to the following recipients or categories of recipients:
4.4.1. carriers / forwarders / courier brokers / entities operating the warehouse and/or the shipping process – in the case of a Customer who uses the method of delivery of a Product by post or courier in the Online Store, the Administrator makes the collected personal data of the Customer available to the selected carrier, forwarder or intermediary handling shipments on behalf of the Administrator, and if the shipment is dispatched from an external warehouse – to the entity operating the warehouse and/or the shipping process – to the extent necessary to deliver the Product to the Customer.
4.4.2. entities handling electronic or card payments – in the case of a Customer who uses the electronic or card payment method in the Online Store, the Administrator makes the collected personal data of the Customer available to the selected entity handling the above payments in the Online Store on behalf of the Administrator, to the extent necessary to process the payment made by the Customer.
4.4.3. service providers supplying the Administrator with technical, IT and organisational solutions enabling the Administrator to conduct its business activity, including the Online Store and the Electronic Services provided through it, in particular: the provider of hosting and server infrastructure (VPS), the provider of CDN, DNS and network traffic protection services, the payment service provider, providers of analytical tools and the provider of transactional e-mail (SMTP) handling the sending of system messages – the Administrator makes the collected personal data of the Customer available to the selected provider acting on its behalf only in the case of and to the extent necessary to achieve a given purpose of data processing in accordance with this privacy policy.
4.4.4. providers of accounting, legal and advisory services providing the Administrator with accounting, legal or advisory support (in particular an accounting office, a law firm or a debt collection company) – the Administrator makes the collected personal data of the Customer available to the selected provider acting on its behalf only in the case of and to the extent necessary to achieve a given purpose of data processing in accordance with this privacy policy.
4.4.5. providers of analytical and advertising tools – only where the person visiting the Online Store has consented to analytical or marketing Cookies and within the scope of that consent; the operation of these tools is described in detail in point 7 of the privacy policy and in the Cookies Policy, including:
4.4.5.1. Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland) – Google Analytics and Google Ads, in accordance with the privacy policy available here: https://policies.google.com/privacy;
4.4.5.2. Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd. (Merrion Road, Dublin 4, D04 X2K5, Ireland) – Meta Pixel and Conversions API: where consent to marketing Cookies has been given, the Administrator also transfers from the Online Store server information about events in the Online Store (e.g. making a purchase) together with data enabling them to be matched, including the e-mail address and telephone number in hashed form; privacy policy: https://www.facebook.com/privacy/policy/;
4.4.5.3. Microsoft Ireland Operations Limited (One Microsoft Place, South County Business Park, Leopardstown, Dublin 18, Ireland) – Microsoft Clarity, in accordance with the privacy statement available here: https://privacy.microsoft.com/pl-pl/privacystatement;

5. PROFILING IN THE ONLINE STORE
5.1. The GDPR Regulation requires the Administrator to provide information about automated decision-making, including profiling, referred to in Article 22(1) and (4) of the GDPR Regulation, and – at least in those cases – meaningful information about the logic involved, as well as the significance and the envisaged consequences of such processing for the data subject. With this in mind, the Administrator provides information on possible profiling in this point of the privacy policy.
5.2. The Administrator may use profiling in the Online Store for direct marketing purposes, but decisions taken by the Administrator on its basis do not concern the conclusion of or refusal to conclude a Sales Agreement or the possibility of using Electronic Services in the Online Store. The effect of using profiling in the Online Store may be, for example, granting a given person a discount, sending them a discount code, reminding them of an unfinished purchase, sending them a proposal for a Product that may match the interests or preferences of that person, or offering better terms compared to the standard offer of the Online Store. Despite the profiling, it is the given person who freely decides whether they wish to take advantage of the discount or better terms received in this way and make a purchase in the Online Store.
5.3. Profiling in the Online Store consists in the automatic analysis or prediction of a given person's behaviour on the Online Store website, e.g. by adding a specific Product to the basket, browsing the page of a specific Product in the Online Store or by analysing the history of purchases made so far in the Online Store. Such profiling is conditional upon the Administrator holding the personal data of the given person so as to be able to subsequently send them, for example, a discount code.
5.4. The data subject has the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning that person or similarly significantly affects them.
6. RIGHTS OF THE DATA SUBJECT
6.1. Right of access, rectification, restriction, erasure or portability – the data subject has the right to request from the Administrator access to their personal data, their rectification, erasure (the “right to be forgotten”) or restriction of processing, and has the right to object to processing, as well as the right to data portability. The detailed conditions for exercising the above rights are set out in Articles 15-21 of the GDPR Regulation.
6.2. Right to withdraw consent at any time – a person whose data are processed by the Administrator on the basis of consent given (pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) or Article 9(2)(a) of the GDPR Regulation) has the right to withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out on the basis of consent before its withdrawal.
6.3. Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority – a person whose data are processed by the Administrator has the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority in the manner and according to the procedure laid down in the provisions of the GDPR Regulation and Polish law, in particular the Polish Personal Data Protection Act. The supervisory authority in Poland is the President of the Personal Data Protection Office (Prezes Urzędu Ochrony Danych Osobowych).
6.4. Right to object – the data subject has the right to object at any time – on grounds relating to their particular situation – to the processing of personal data concerning them based on Article 6(1)(e) (public interest or public tasks) or (f) (legitimate interest of the controller), including profiling based on those provisions. In such a case, the Administrator may no longer process those personal data unless it demonstrates compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject, or grounds for the establishment, exercise or defence of claims.
6.5. Right to object to direct marketing – where personal data are processed for direct marketing purposes, the data subject has the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning them for such marketing, including profiling, to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing.
6.6. In order to exercise the rights referred to in this point of the privacy policy, the Administrator may be contacted by sending an appropriate message in writing or by e-mail to the Administrator's address indicated at the beginning of the privacy policy, or by using the contact form available on the Online Store website.
7. COOKIES IN THE ONLINE STORE AND ANALYTICS
7.1. Cookies are small pieces of text information in the form of text files, sent by a server and saved on the side of the person visiting the Online Store website (e.g. on the hard drive of a computer or laptop, or on the memory card of a smartphone – depending on the device used by the visitor to our Online Store). Detailed information about Cookies, as well as the history of their creation, can be found, among others, here: https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_cookie.
7.2. The Administrator provides on the Online Store website a tool for easy and active management of Cookies - available upon the first visit to the Online Store website and subsequently available in the footer of the Online Store website (the “Cookie settings” link). Active management allows, among other things, checking which Cookies are or may be saved while using the Online Store website, as well as selecting and subsequently changing the scope and purposes of the use of Cookies in relation to the device and the person visiting the Online Store website. When starting to use the Online Store website, the visitor will be asked to choose their Cookies settings. These can be changed later by changing the settings within this tool available on the website.
7.3. In the privacy policy, the Administrator provides a range of information concerning the use of Cookies on the Online Store website, their types and purposes of use, and their management using, for example, web browser settings and/or the Cookies management tool available on the Online Store website. The Administrator encourages the use of the Cookies management tool available on the Online Store website, which makes it easy to actively manage Cookies while using the Online Store website, and, should it be unavailable, to read the information below concerning, among other things, the management of Cookies from the browser level. A list of the Cookies used in the Online Store – with their names, purpose and retention period – is contained in the Cookies Policy.
7.4. Cookies which may be sent by the Online Store website can be divided into various types according to the following criteria:
By their provider:
- first-party (created by the Administrator's Online Store website)
- belonging to third persons/entities (other than the Administrator)
By their retention period on the device of the person visiting the Online Store website:
- session (stored until logging out of the Online Store or closing the web browser)
- persistent (stored for a specified period of time defined by the parameters of each file or until manually deleted)
By the purpose of their use:
- necessary (enabling the proper functioning of the Online Store website)
- functional/preference (enabling the Online Store website to be adapted to the preferences of the person visiting the website)
- analytical and performance (collecting information on how the Online Store website is used)
- marketing, advertising and social media (collecting information about the person visiting the Online Store website in order to display advertisements to that person, personalise them, measure their effectiveness and carry out other marketing activities, including on websites separate from the Online Store website, such as social networking sites or other websites belonging to the same advertising networks as the Online Store)
7.5. The Administrator may process the data contained in Cookies when visitors use the Online Store website for the following specific purposes:
Purposes of the use of Cookies in the Administrator's Online Store:
- identifying Service Recipients as logged in to the Online Store and showing that they are logged in (necessary Cookies)
- remembering Products added to the basket in order to place an Order (necessary Cookies)
- remembering data from completed Order Forms, surveys or login details for the Online Store (necessary and/or functional/preference Cookies)
- adapting the content of the Online Store website to the individual preferences of the Service Recipient (e.g. regarding colours, font size, page layout) and optimising the use of the Online Store pages (functional/preference Cookies)
- keeping anonymous statistics showing how the Online Store website is used (analytical and performance Cookies)
- displaying and rendering advertisements, limiting the number of times advertisements are displayed and ignoring advertisements which the Service Recipient does not wish to see, measuring the effectiveness of advertisements, as well as personalising advertisements, i.e. examining the behavioural characteristics of persons visiting the Online Store through an anonymous analysis of their actions (e.g. repeated visits to specific pages, keywords, etc.) in order to create their profile and deliver to them advertisements tailored to their anticipated interests, also when they visit other websites in the advertising network of Google Ireland Ltd. and Facebook, i.e. Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd. (marketing, advertising and social media Cookies)
7.6. It is possible to check which Cookies are being sent at a given moment by the Online Store website, regardless of the web browser, using tools available, for example, on the website: https://www.cookiemetrix.com or https://www.cookie-checker.com.
7.7. As standard, most web browsers available on the market accept the saving of Cookies by default. Everyone can determine the conditions for the use of Cookies by means of the settings of their own web browser. This means that it is possible, for example, to partially restrict (e.g. temporarily) or completely disable the possibility of saving Cookies – in the latter case, however, this may affect some functionalities of the Online Store (for example, it may prove impossible to complete the Order path via the Order Form because Products in the basket are not remembered during the subsequent steps of placing the Order).
7.8. Web browser settings do not replace consent to the use of Cookies given in the Cookies management tool available on the Online Store website – merely using the website or the default browser settings are not equivalent to giving such consent. Detailed information on changing Cookies settings and deleting them yourself in the most popular web browsers is available in the help section of the web browser and on the following pages (just click the relevant link):
- in the Chrome browser
- in the Firefox browser
- in the Opera browser

7.12. The Administrator may use in the Online Store the Meta Pixel service provided by Meta Platforms Ireland Limited (Merrion Road, Dublin 4, D04 X2K5, Ireland).

Detailed information about how the Meta Pixel works can be found at the following internet address: https://www.facebook.com/business/help/742478679120153?helpref=page_content.
7.13. The operation of the Meta Pixel can be managed through the ad settings in the Meta Accounts Center at: https://accountscenter.facebook.com/ad_preferences/.

Clarity is activated only after consent to analytical Cookies has been given. Detailed information: https://learn.microsoft.com/pl-pl/clarity/setup-and-installation/privacy-disclosure.
7.15. In the Czech version of the Online Store, the Administrator may use the Sklik advertising tools provided by Seznam.cz, a.s. (Radlická 3294/10, 150 00 Prague 5, Czech Republic) – to measure the effectiveness of advertisements and to display advertisements to persons who have visited the Online Store. These tools are activated only after consent to marketing Cookies has been given.
7.16. The tools described in points 7.9–7.15 are activated only after consent to the relevant category of Cookies has been given. Consent may be changed or withdrawn at any time in the “Cookie settings”, without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before its withdrawal.

Payments are handled by an external service (e.g. Przelewy24), which uses its own cookies on its pages under its own policy.
How to manage cookies?
You can change or withdraw your consent at any time in Cookie settings (the link is also in the page footer). Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing before the withdrawal. After you withdraw it, we stop setting and reading cookies of that category; cookies already saved can be deleted in your browser settings.
You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings — blocking necessary cookies will prevent the cart and account from working. More information is available in the Privacy Policy.
