We believe it is important to keep you, as our user, informed about our products and services. This processing may involve the creation of a profile. This profiling has no effect on you, except that this processing activity may lead to the improvement of the customer experience and a personalised offer, which is beneficial to you. The provision of your personal data for this purpose is not a requirement and you can object to this processing (see Article 8 below).
In any case
We may process your personal data to comply with applicable laws and regulations and for the management of disputes (e.g. prevention/detection/sanctioning of unlawful acts and/or misuse of Conscio's resources, defence against legal claims), based on our legitimate interests. We believe that compliance with laws and regulations and the management of disputes contribute to safeguarding and promoting our economic, commercial, social and financial interests. The processing may involve the creation of a profile. The creation of a profile does not affect you except to comply with laws and regulations and to manage disputes. We may anonymise your personal data and use aggregated data for research and development purposes based on our legitimate interests (e.g. revenue statistics, market analysis, user statistics and use of our products and services, development and improvement of our products and services). We believe that research and development can lead to improvements in customer experience, product enhancement and innovation, which is a benefit to those involved in our products and services (e.g. customers, distributors, suppliers). Research and development may involve compiling a profile. All identifying elements such as your name, address, etc. will be omitted. This profiling does not affect you, except that this processing activity may result in enhancing the customer experience, product improvement and innovation, which will be of benefit to you.
Providing your personal data for these purposes is a requirement, but you can object to the processing (see Article 8 below).

Any data transfer will be based on appropriate safeguards (adequacy decision and/or European Commission standard data protection clauses). Please contact us at the above address (Article 2) or at contact@conscio.eu to receive a copy of the appropriate safeguards.
