This information is only collected for statistical purposes and for improving our website.

We receive the personal data directly from you. We may receive additional information about your preferences and browsing behaviour from partners such as Google or Facebook.

2.2. Purposes for collecting personal data

We only use the personal data communicated by you through the website and collected by us to provide requested information, fulfil your order, send the requested newsletters and improve our website.

After you’ve placed an order, we may also use your e-mail address to send marketing and commercial information about our products and services, particularly for personalised communication. Rob Units will only send you newsletters and other ads via e-mail or other digital communication channels if you have explicitly consented to receiving such messages.

Rob Units processes your personal data to provide you with the information that you request through the website, e-mail, phone, fax and social media, in a personalised and efficient manner.

 

2.3. Parties with access to personal data

Our general approach is that we do not share your personal data with third parties. Sometimes, however, it is inevitable that third parties will receive your personal data. Service providers that help us offer you the website may – under certain circumstances – receive and process your personal data. These external parties may only process your personal data on behalf of Rob Units according to explicit written instructions. All external parties must warrant the security and integrity of your personal data.

 

Rob Units may also process your personal data for the preservation of ROB UNITS's legitimate interests if and when your registration with or use of the website could be considered to (a) violate the Cookie Policy or intellectual property rights, (b) be a threat to the security or integrity of the website or any of Rob Units's underlying systems due to viruses, Trojan horses, spyware, malware or any other form of malicious code, or (c) be in any way hateful, obscene, discriminatory, racist, defamatory, offensive or otherwise illegal.

Your personal data may be transferred to the police or judicial authorities as evidence or if there is a justified suspicion of an illegal act or crime committed by you through your use of the website.

We reserve the right to submit your personal data to the competent authorities at their explicit request.

Personal data may also be processed by us in a country outside the European Economic Area.

Please note that data posted by you in public places, such as information on a blog or comments on a discussion forum, can be consulted by anyone.

 

3. What makes the processing of your personal data legitimate?

The law requires us to indicate the legal basis for processing your personal data. This may be because you have consented to it, because we are compelled to do so by law or to protect Rob Units's legitimate interests, which are:

• protecting our website, social media, products and services from misuse and illegal activities;

• improvements to the website, social media, products and services;

• marketing and general commercialisation of our products and services.

 

4. Use of your e-mail address

If you no longer wish to receive newsletters or information about our products and services, you can unsubscribe at any time by sending an e-mail to this purpose to info@robunits.be.
