When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Who we share your data with

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

1. COLLECTION OF INFORMATION

In order to provide our services, we collect personally identifiable information as voluntarily submitted to us by our clients and visitors. This includes names, preferred postal addresses, email addresses and telephone numbers. In all cases, the information you submit is used to fulfil your specific request such as making a purchase from our online store. By completing a purchase online, you consent to the personal data you provide being processed as required to fulfil your purchase. Should you choose to subscribe to our mailing list, only your name and email address will be used in that communication. You can redefine or opt-out of receiving our newsletters at any time by following the designated ‘unsubscribe’ link in the footer.

In certain cases, your data will be transmitted to Architonic AG via the Virtual Showroom for processing enquiries. In turn, Architonic AG will forward this data to the relevant retailer if this is necessary for processing the request in question. Only the data which is necessary to process the purpose in question will be forwarded.
