Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how we process the personal information that we collect from you when you attend our events or premises, or use our websites, apps, platforms and services governed by this Privacy Policy (our “Services”).

I.R.I.S. is the data controller of your personal information—the entity that determines the ‘purposes and means’ of the processing. If you do not accept the use of your personal data in accordance with this policy, you should not make use of our Services.

2. Information we collect and what we use it for

We collect personal information in the following circumstances:

We collect data like your name, position, email, or phone to verify identity, assist with login, and send important notices (e.g., order confirmations, policy changes).

2.2 Responding to Customer Queries

We process details to respond to queries. We may store phone numbers or e-form data to trace query history and assist you efficiently.

2.3 Event Management

We collect names, business phones, and necessary details (dietary, emergency) to register you for events and process payments.

2.4 Browsing Behavior & Devices

We record actions (visits, interactions) and device info (OS, Browser, IP) to:

  • Improve products and develop new ones via data analysis.
  • Tailor your experience and display personalized content.
  • Send relevant marketing communications.
  • Protect users against fraud/abuse and for internal auditing.

2.5 Fulfillment Purposes

To perform contracts, arrange repairs, or site visits, we need business contact details. If we perform technical operations, we may access personal data held by your organization.

2.8 & 2.9 Purchase & Payment Information

We keep purchase records for invoicing and warranty. We do not store your bank card details; payments are processed via third-party platforms.

2.10 Cookies & Technologies

We use cookies to enable functionalities. We also use Eye-Able® Assist for accessibility, which processes data locally and via a CDN (BunnyWay d.o.o.) ensuring GDPR compliance without analyzing personal user behavior.

3. Legal Basis for using your personal information

I.R.I.S. processes information based on:

  • Legitimate Business Interests: To understand customers, promote goods, and operate effectively.

  • Compliance with Law: To meet legal obligations.
  • Consent: When provided voluntarily (e.g., competitions). You can withdraw consent at any time.

4. How we share your information

4.1 Within I.R.I.S.: Access is restricted to staff with a "need to know" (e.g., local sales/service centers).

4.2 Outside I.R.I.S.: We do not share data for others' use except:

  • Vendors/Subcontractors (delivery, maintenance, hosting).
  • Marketing service providers.
  • Payment processors and fraud-screening agencies.
  • Professional/Legal advisers.
  • Potential buyers (in case of business asset sale).
  • Authorities (police/regulatory) to protect rights or safety.

5. How we protect your information

Data is held on secure servers accessible only to authorized staff. While no online transmission is 100% secure, we apply adequate security measures. If data is transferred outside your country (e.g., outside EEA), we ensure appropriate safeguards like EU standard contractual clauses.

6. Marketing Communications

We may use your data to inform you about products/services. You can opt-out at any time via your account preferences or unsubscribe links. Service messages (e.g., order confirmations) are not marketing.

7. How to exercise your rights

You have the right to access, correct, restrict, receive a copy, or delete your data. You can exercise these rights via your Partner Portal, unsubscribe links, or our contact form. We comply with deletion requests immediately within legal requirements.

8. Retention of your information

We keep data only as long as needed (typically not exceeding 6 years). Purchase records are kept for tax/warranty purposes. Correspondence is kept to protect against legal claims.
