The Group Companies are joint controllers for running multiple marketing activities simultaneously and jointly administer the Website, in order to best address your contact requests and offer you information about our services. Because of that, the marketing processes are highly centralized and Group Companies are acting as joint controllers with respect to your personal data collected through the Website. As a result, the companies jointly determined their respective responsibilities for compliance with data protection obligations. 

In particular, the Group Companies have decided that Mangopay S.A. and Nethone, as the case may be, are responsible for:

  • Collecting consents for processing of personal data for future marketing and for communication with individuals on behalf of all the joint controllers;
  • fulfilling information obligation on behalf of joint controllers;
  • ensuring legal basis for data transfers outside the European Economic Area (EEA), should Group Companies decide to entrust the processing of personal data in the marketing data base to entities located in a third countries;
  • Conclusion of data processing agreements when data are entrusted to processors for hosting and other marketing-related purposes;
  • acting as a common point of contact for individuals whose data are processed. 

All the other obligations remain with individual Group Companies as data controllers.

Appropriate steps are taken to ensure security of your data. We process your data for general marketing purposes:

  • responding to your query and to messages sent by you via messenger available on the Website; and
  • sending you marketing e-mails and contacting you telephonically, provided that you consented to such forms of communication.

Together with marketing information and offers regarding Nethone products and services, we may at times approach you with information on compatible products and services, which are offered together with ours, such as services provided by our Group Companies.

In processing your data, we pursue our legitimate interest in direct marketing of our services, which constitutes the legal basis for processing of your data. Provision of your personal data is voluntary, but if you don't provide us with your basic contact details (name, surname and either phone number or e-mail address), we will not be able to respond to your query.

You have the right to object to the processing of your data by us and to request that we correct or delete your data. If you file such a request we will stop processing your data and delete it, unless there exists an important overriding legal interest (e.g. defense of claims or existence of a legal obligation to retain the data) which will entitle us to keep your data for a longer period. You also have the right of access to your data, as well as the right to data portability and to restriction of processing.

We process your personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes, for which it was collected. In establishing the retention period for your personal data, we take into account, among others, the following criteria:

  • whether you express continuous interest in our services,
  • if you have become our customer,
  • if you told us during the call or in a message that you would like us to contact you in the future.

We do not share your data with other data controllers, but we entrust the processing of your personal data to entities, which act on our behalf and solely based on our instructions (data processors). In particular we use data processors, whom we select carefully, to store your data on secure servers located within the territory of the EU.

We may have to share your personal data with competent authorities (in particular the police or prosecution service), if they approach us with such a request, provided that there exists an appropriate legal basis for making your personal data available to them (e.g. a court order).
