ALINA ALUMINIUM Privacy Policy
ONLINE PRIVACY POLICY
Updated date: 05.12.2022
- Scope
This website is operated by ALINA ALUMINIUM company (“Company”).
In this Online Privacy and Cookie Policy, we explain how we protect your privacy when you visit this website, what “Personal Data” we collect from our website, what kind of information we collect, track, how this information is used, and with whom it is shared.
“Personal Data” refers to information that identifies you personally, either alone or in combination with other data. Examples of Personal Data include your name, contact information, job applications, information provided when creating an account, or your personal profile on our website, information about the pages you viewed, and the paths you took while using our website.
- Legal Basis for the Use of Your Personal Data
By accessing or using this website, you consent to the collection, use, and sharing of your Personal Data as described in this Online Privacy and Cookie Policy.
IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH THE COLLECTION, USE, AND SHARING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA AS STATED IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY, PLEASE EXIT AND DO NOT USE THIS SITE.
In places where applicable legislation provides, you can contact us to withdraw your consent at any time. Even if you withdraw your consent, we would like to remind you that, within the scope of the legislation, we may still collect, use, and share your Personal Data for certain purposes if it is necessary due to our legitimate interests in performing the contract with you or in relation to our business operations, protection, and improvement.
- Collected Personal Data
The Personal Data we collect is knowingly provided by you (using your mouse or keyboard) while using our website. The data we collect may vary depending on the purpose of using our website. For example, if you sign up to receive email communications from our company, we collect your email address and relevant information you provide during registration. If you use the “Contact Us” feature to communicate with us, we collect the data you provide on the “Contact Us” form.
Generally, our website distinguishes between data necessary to provide a specific product or service (“mandatory fields”) and optional data related to the product, service, or request, even though useful. We want to remind you that if you do not provide the required information in the mandatory fields, we may not be able to provide you with the relevant product or service or fulfill your request.
From time to time, we may complement the data you provide with data obtained from other sources (e.g., verification information about your address, information about your postal code, or information about your business). Additionally, we may support the data you provide with data collected from you through other channels. For example, if you are a customer of our company, we may complement the information you provided online with the information you provided in other business connections with our company.
Among the data we collect are also the data that your web browser automatically sends to us. This data usually includes your IP address, the identity of your internet service provider, the name and version of your operating system, the name and version of your browser, the date/time of your visit, and the pages you visited. “IP address” is a unique number assigned to your computer when you connect to the internet, used to determine the “location” of your computer in cyberspace for the provision of requested information. If you use a dial-up connection or dynamic IP addresses, you get a new IP address each time you connect to the internet. However, if your computer is permanently connected to the internet with a static IP address, the assigned IP address is usually the same each time you use your computer. Although your IP address does not identify you by name, we consider it as your Personal Data.
When you respond to an electronic communication from us (e.g., by opening an email, downloading an image, or clicking a link in an electronic newsletter), your browser provides information about the transaction you (or the person using your email address) made. We use this data to improve our marketing strategy. Additionally, we review our server logs, including IP addresses, for security and fraud prevention purposes. If we suspect any criminal activity, we may share our server logs and the Personal Data collected from our website with units that investigate and identify criminals.
A “Cookie” is a small file stored on the user’s computer by the website that allows the website to recognize the user. We use “Cookies” and other web technologies in various ways. For example, we may use these technologies to:
● Collect information about how visitors use our website (which pages they visit, which links they use, and how much time they spend on each page).
● Support features and functions on our website (e.g., saving you from the hassle of entering information repeatedly in our database or asking for settings you made during your previous visits to our website).
● Personalize your experience while using our website.
● Measure the success of our web or email advertisements.
