Is information passed on to third parties? Information about our customers is of great importance to Banchi & Besco and helps us to further optimize our offers and services. Data is passed on to third parties only to the following extent and in accordance with applicable data protection law: Affiliated companies: Banchi & Besco may pass on personal data (including user data) to our affiliated companies and equivalents (subsidiaries) for the purpose of processing your orders and services. Service providers: We commission selected companies or individuals to perform certain services - including, for example, the delivery of packages, sending e-mails, managing our customer list, analyzing databases, processing payments (credit card, direct debit or invoice purchase) or providing customer service. These service providers only have access to the data they need to perform their services. They are obliged not to use this information for any other purpose and to handle it strictly in accordance with this data protection declaration and the Luxembourg data protection law. Transfer of business units: As part of the further development of our business, it may happen that Banchi & Besco, a branch or individual business units (e.g. a workshop or shop) are sold or acquired. In such transactions, customer data is usually transferred together with the respective business unit. However, even after the transfer, this data is still subject to the data protection provisions in force until then, unless you have expressly consented to another use. In the unlikely event that Banchi & Besco is sold in whole or in part, your personal data will be transferred to the buyer. Data protection and security: Banchi & Besco may disclose customer accounts and personal data if we are legally obliged to do so or if such disclosure is useful or necessary to protect our General Terms and Conditions, other agreements or our rights and those of our customers or third parties. This may include, for example, the exchange of data with specialized companies to prevent fraud or misuse of credit cards. It is expressly stated that this disclosure will not be for commercial purposes contrary to this data protection declaration. With your express consent: After completing an order, you have the opportunity to voluntarily participate in a marketing survey. By participating, you give us permission to also disclose your data to third parties in other cases - exclusively with your express consent. Transfer to third countries: If personal data – in the context described above – is transferred to countries outside the European Economic Area (EEA), we ensure that this transfer takes place in accordance with this data protection declaration and Luxembourg law. This is done on the basis of the so-called “Standard Contractual Clauses” of the European Commission. These clauses guarantee an appropriate level of data protection also in third countries.
