Privacy Policy of Grante.hu
Privacy: Last Modified Date of Guidelines: January 1, 2023
Privacy: Introduction
Grante.hu is committed to respecting privacy rights.
Our Privacy Guidelines are clear. We do not collect personal data through our websites unless voluntarily provided by the visitor. The concept of personal data is defined by Act No. LXIII of 1992.
In the following privacy notice, we explain how Grante.hu collects personal data, how we use it, and inform you about your options regarding the use of your information. We also describe how we ensure the adequate protection of your data.
By using our website, you accept these Privacy Guidelines. Therefore, you consent to the handling of your personal data in accordance with these Privacy Guidelines.
The controller of your data is the owner of Grante.hu, Grante Zrt. (headquartered at Dorogi út 5-7, 2509 Esztergom, Hungary, hereinafter referred to as „Controller” or „Grante.hu”). The data controller always complies with applicable Hungarian laws concerning data processing and data processing within the territory of Hungary, especially Act No. LXIII of 1992 and Act No. CVIII of 2001.
During your visit to our website, we may collect and store information about you, including voluntarily provided personal data. In such cases, we request your consent for data processing. The purpose of processing your personal data is to provide you with requested services and to personalize the display of product information and offers. If you wish, we may also use your personal data to provide additional information about our other products and services that may be of interest to you. In such cases, this will be indicated on our website where information is collected for the aforementioned purposes.
We only use your personal data for the purposes you have chosen, in accordance with your consent. The legal basis for data processing carried out by the Controller is the informed consent of the individuals concerned. Individuals give this consent by accepting the website’s registration conditions or by starting to use the site.
Privacy: Use of Information
If you are required to provide personal data to access specific content or services, we will provide clear information on how we will use this data.
We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal data. However, we may share your data with other units, organizations, agents, or contractual or business partners of Grante.hu to provide services. For example, we may share your personal data with our contractual partners involved in supporting our activities (e.g., package delivery, technical support, delivery, financial organizations) or as required by applicable laws or valid court or authority orders.
Furthermore, we may conduct research. We may aggregate your data with others’ data to create anonymous, aggregated, and statistical data sets. Aggregated and statistical data do not contain information suitable for personal identification. We use these (e.g., the percentage ratio of male and female visitors or the age distribution of visitors) to improve the content of our website. It is also possible that we share this anonymous, aggregated, or statistical information with our partners or third parties. These data are not suitable for identifying individuals.
As our company evolves and grows, Grante.hu may sell or purchase companies, subsidiaries, products, or assets in the future. In such transactions, customer/order information usually represents one of the transferred business assets. If Grante.hu undergoes business transformation (e.g., merger, acquisition by other companies, or sale of one or all of its products or assets), your personal information may also be transferred. We make every effort to inform you of any changes related to the handling of your personal data via email, letter, or public notice. Alongside this notification, we provide you with clear options regarding allowing the use of your personal data for secondary purposes such as sending product information, conducting research, promotions, or other lawful business communications.
Privacy: Consent Statement
Grante.hu considers the consent statement one of the most important fundamental rights to privacy. You have the right to decide not to provide any personal data to us. However, in such cases, you may not be able to access certain parts of our website.
On the registration page where you register for email notifications or other services, there is an „accept/do not accept” (opt-in) function. This means that you will only receive information and services from us if you click the button, indicating your express consent. For certain types of communication and service provision, we verify in advance whether you have previously expressly consented to the activity or service. If you decide later that you no longer wish to receive messages or services sent by us, you can indicate this by modifying your previously provided preferences on the website. You can also permanently delete/remove your data from the system. In addition, in email notifications, each email message contains a link allowing you to unsubscribe from the list of subscribers or users of that particular service.
Privacy: Access, Correction, and Deletion of Data
Grante.hu uses personal data only for purposes to which you have previously consented. We use data only for purposes that correspond to the purpose of data collection. We provide users with access to personal data they have provided.
On some of our websites, you can log into your data profile or preferences and read, modify, or delete the information and settings stored there as needed.
Privacy: Data Security
We are committed to securely storing your personal data and take all reasonable precautions required by data protection laws to maintain data security.
Personal data stored on servers is protected against unauthorized access and destruction by reasonable technical and managerial security measures.
Although the Controller protects personally identifiable information with technical and administrative measures, we cannot guarantee its perfect security against individuals attempting to circumvent data security measures or intercept data on the Internet.
Privacy: Data Retention Period
If you provide personal data to Grante.hu, the data processing period by the Controller extends until the duration of your customer relationship with us. In other words, we process data as long as it is necessary to provide the service requested by you. Unless you decide otherwise or shorter periods are prescribed by legal obligations.
Privacy: Cookies
Cookies are anonymous visitor identifiers that our website can provide to your browser and are used exclusively by our websites while you visit them. Grante.hu websites equip your web browser with cookies containing special identifiers. We use these to better understand usage habits in aggregated form, thus learning which pages of our website are preferred by visitors (e.g., based on the number of visitors in specific areas). These sequences alone cannot identify visitors. They do not contain data that could be used to identify visitors. The anonymous visitor identifier is only capable of recognizing the visitor’s computer.
Grante.hu can only read cookies that it has placed itself. The Controller does not have access to or read cookies placed by other organizations. We may also use cookies to track website usage and traffic trends in aggregate. This aggregated and anonymous information helps us develop the content of the website. We are authorized to share this with partners or other organizations.
If you are a registered user of the website, we may provide you with a cookie when you log into the website. Your browser stores the cookie, which contains your computer’s identifier. We use this type of cookie to identify you and provide access to closed parts of our website reserved for registered users.
If you simply want to browse, you do not need to accept cookies provided by our website. In this case, certain parts of the website may not function, or may only work in a limited way for you. If you later decide to register and log in to access special parts of the website, but previously modified your browser settings not to accept cookies, you will need to reset your browser to accept the cookies we send. Otherwise, we cannot guarantee access to certain parts of the website for you. Most browsers are set by default to accept and retain cookies. If you want to learn more about cookies and how to determine cookie preferences, please search for „cookie” in the „Help” section of your browser.
Privacy: IP Addresses
An Internet Protocol (IP) address is a number assigned to your computer by your Internet Service Provider (ISP) each time you connect to the Internet. Like other websites, Grante.hu may collect IP addresses to analyze the information gathered about the number of visitors and website usage.
Log files for IP addresses are updated daily. Statistics are created from these, and log files generated on a monthly basis are stored for 365 days on servers operated by the Controller. IP addresses are not linked by the Controller to any other data that could identify the user.
Grante.hu reserves the right to use IP addresses in accordance with legal provisions to identify individuals who threaten our website, services, or customers.
Privacy: Clickstream
„Clickstream” or „clickstream data” refers to websites visited by an individual user and is characterized by the traffic pattern of how a user jumps from one webpage to another. Such information is only recorded on our website. Outside of our website pages, we do not track any click activities.
