Additionally, we may collect data about you from third parties, such as a friend or family member who provides your details for event invitations.

If you provide personal data on behalf of someone else, please ensure you have their permission to share this information with us and that they are aware of how we will use it according to this Privacy Policy.

We do not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 16, or any other applicable minimum age set by local law. If you are under this age, please do not provide us with your personal data.

5. Promotional Communications (newsletter, invitations, etc.)

With your express prior consent, you may receive information about SÓLLERIA's offers, services, products, or events (referred to as "Promotional Communications"). This consent is typically obtained when you subscribe to our newsletter, sign up for events, or check a specific box in our forms.

By giving your consent, you agree to receive promotional content directly from SÓLLERIA. We rely on your consent to process the personal data you provide for this purpose. If you no longer wish to receive promotional communications, you can withdraw your consent at any time (see section: "What Rights Do You Have Over Your Personal Data?").

We may ask you to confirm or update your preferences for receiving promotional communications in the following cases:

  • If you request additional products or services in the future;
  • If there are changes in the law or our business structure.

6. How Long Do We Keep Your Personal Data?

Your personal data is retained only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, to comply with legal and regulatory obligations, and for the period necessary to establish, exercise, or defend any legal claims.

To determine the most appropriate retention periods, we take into account several factors, including the amount, nature, and sensitivity of your personal data, the reasons for which it was collected, the service you expect from us, and applicable legal requirements. Examples include:

  • Prospective customers: If you are a potential customer, your data will be retained for three years from your last interaction with us, after which it will be deleted or archived to meet legal retention obligations.
  • Customers: For customers, your data will be retained for the duration of our commercial relationship, and for up to ten years thereafter to comply with legal obligations.
  • Cookies: Cookies used on our digital platforms will be stored for up to 13 months from the date they were installed on your device.

7. How do we disclose and transfer your personal data?

We take your privacy seriously and will only disclose your personal data for the purposes listed below:

  • Internal Use: Your personal data may be shared with authorized Solleria employees and departments (e.g., customer service, marketing, finance) to process your orders and enhance our services.
  • Shopify and Other Service Providers: Since Solleria operates via Shopify’s platform, Shopify acts as a processor of your data to fulfill services on our behalf. Shopify adheres to stringent security measures and privacy policies to ensure your data is protected. For international data transfers, Shopify uses mechanisms such as Standard Contractual Clauses to ensure lawful transfers. Further details can be found in Shopify's Privacy Policy.
  • Third-Party Service Providers: We may share your data with trusted third-party providers (e.g., payment processors, marketing services, delivery partners), which are required to process your personal data in line with our instructions and privacy policy.

By using Solleria, you agree to the transfer of your data as described here. For more information on how Shopify handles data, visit their Privacy Policy.

8. How Do We Protect Your Personal Data?

We treat all your personal data as strictly confidential, accessible only to authorized personnel of SÓLLERIA and our trusted third-party providers. These individuals and entities act on our behalf with appropriate technical and organizational safeguards in place to ensure the security and confidentiality of your personal data.

SÓLLERIA has implemented robust security measures to protect your data from unauthorized access, disclosure, and misuse. We follow industry-standard security protocols to prevent data breaches, including encryption, secure storage systems, and access controls. We ensure that only those with a genuine business need can access your data, and they are required to adhere to strict confidentiality agreements.

We also have procedures in place to address any suspected data breaches. Should a breach occur, we will notify you and any applicable regulatory authority as required by law.

While we take significant steps to protect your personal data, it is important to note that transmission over the internet is not entirely secure. Although we do our best to protect your data, we cannot guarantee its complete security during transmission. Any transmission of personal data is at your own risk, and you agree that SÓLLERIA cannot be held responsible for any unauthorized access or use of your data unless legally required.

Once we receive your data, we apply strict security measures to prevent unauthorized access or misuse.

  • Right to Restrict Processing: Restrict the processing of your personal data under certain conditions (e.g., if you dispute its accuracy).
  • Right to Data Portability: Receive the personal data you provided in a structured, machine-readable format, or request the transfer of that data to a third party.
  • Right to Object to Processing: Object to the processing of your personal data:

If your data processing is based on consent (e.g., for marketing), you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. Withdrawing your consent does not affect the processing of your data on other legal grounds, such as fulfilling your orders.

If you no longer wish to receive marketing or promotional messages, you can unsubscribe at any time using the link provided in each of our promotional emails. We will update our records promptly, but you may still receive service-related communications as necessary for the products or services you have requested.

Right to Lodge a Complaint: You have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority if you believe we have infringed upon your data protection rights.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details in the "How to Contact Us" section. When making a request, you may be required to provide identification information to help protect against fraudulent requests from third parties.
