This Privacy Policy aims to inform you about how GreenBuild s.r.o., with its registered office at České Budějovice, Plachého 388/28, Postal Code 370 01, ID No.: 21002037, registered in the Commercial Register maintained by the Regional Court in České Budějovice, File No. C 33758 („the Company“ or „we“), uses personal data and what information it collects, evaluates, passes on to third parties, or processes in other ways regarding users of its websites, online applications, or mobile platforms („online services“).
This Privacy Policy applies to the company. It does not apply to online services of other Wienerberger group companies or online services operated by third parties.
We process precise and current personal data based on a legal title, in a correct and transparent manner, only for specific, explicitly stated, and legitimate purposes, in the minimally necessary scope, storing them in a form that allows the identification of data subjects only for as long as necessary with respect to the purpose of processing, and we ensure their integrity and confidentiality using appropriate technical or organizational measures and proper security against unauthorized or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction, or damage. We emphasize that inaccurate data, considering the purpose for which we process them, are immediately deleted or rectified.
Your personal data are obtained from several sources. You personally are the primary source of your personal data (e.g., when you contact us with interest in our products and services, when you need technical assistance, when you register for our discount actions, when you contact us with your queries, remarks, and requests, etc.).
Sources of your personal data also include publicly accessible sources, such as the internet, including social networks (e.g., Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc.). Another source of your personal data are Cookies and Web beacons in connection with your activity on our websites. You can also protect your privacy through your own preset web browser settings. If you are interested in a particular source of processing your personal data, you can contact us with this query through the contact details provided within this Privacy Policy.
As a rule, the use of our online services does not require the provision of any personal data. If personal data are collected within the framework of our online services, as much as possible, the provision is based on a voluntary basis. For example, if you want to regularly subscribe to our Newsletter offered on our websites, we require you to provide your email address and other information that enables us to verify that you are the actual owner of the email address provided for the subscription.
To fulfill our contractual obligations to you and/or our legal obligations in our business activities and contact with you, we may process the following categories of personal data, which you provide to us for the stated purposes:
For data security reasons and also to optimize the user experience, we collect certain data in connection with the use of our online services that typically may not be personal data by themselves. Examples include data about the used internet browser, operating system, domain name on the website you visited before visiting our website, number of visits, and average time spent on our websites, as well as the pages that you visited.
This automatically collected data is not combined with data from other sources. However, we reserve the right to subsequently verify this data in case we are alerted to a specific risk of misuse.
Our online services use so-called Cookies. Cookies cannot harm your computer in any way. They are small files with configuration settings that help us make our online services more user-friendly, effective, and secure. Cookies are also used to implement some user features.
Our online services usually use „Session Cookies,“ which are automatically deleted after you close your web browser. Occasionally, they also use „Persistent Cookies,“ which remain on your device until they expire or are manually deleted. These files allow us to recognize your web browser on your next visit. Details about „Third Party Cookies,“ i.e., cookies from third-party providers such as Google Inc., can be found in the privacy policies of these providers.
In the settings of your web browser or in the privacy settings of your mobile devices, you can also set your devices to notify you when a cookie is being stored, and thus you can decide whether to allow cookies or not. You also have the option to disable the storage of cookies only for certain cases or as a default setting of your device. Furthermore, you have the option to set the automatic deletion of cookies every time you close your web browser. However, you should be aware that some functions of our online services may not be fully available if cookies are deactivated.
To obtain your valid consent to the use and storage of cookies in the browser that you use to access our website and to document this properly, we use a consent management platform: CookieFirst. This technology is provided by Digital Data Solutions BV, Plantage Middenlaan 42a, 1018 DH, Amsterdam, Netherlands. Website: https://cookiefirst.com, hereinafter referred to as CookieFirst.
When you access our website, a connection is established with CookieFirst‘s server to allow us to obtain your valid consent to the use of certain cookies. CookieFirst then stores a cookie in your browser to enable only the cookies you have consented to and to document this properly. The processed data will be stored until the predetermined retention period expires, or you request the deletion of the data. Different statutory retention periods may apply.
We have entered into a data processing agreement with CookieFirst. This is a data protection contract required by law that ensures that the data of our website visitors is processed only according to our instructions and in compliance with the GDPR.
Our website and CookieFirst automatically collect and store information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. The following data is collected:
CookieFirst is used to obtain the legally required consent for the use of cookies. The legal basis for this is Article 6(1)(c) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

No social plugins are used in our online services.
The personal data that you provide to us or that we obtain through the above web analytics are processed and used exclusively for predetermined purposes and based on the respective legal bases, in particular:

The newsletter tool uses so-called web beacons, which allow us to analyze the effectiveness of our online services and newsletters. For example, our newsletters and HTML emails may contain web beacons to identify whether internet links contained in the content have been clicked. The information collected in this manner helps us improve our email services and adapt our content to the needs of our users. By deleting the email, these web beacons will also be deleted. Of course, our regular text emails do not contain any web beacons.

In these cases, you will be informed in advance that the restriction of processing is being lifted.
You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you, which you have provided to us, in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, and you have the right to transmit those data to another controller, under the following conditions:

We will transfer your personal data to you in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format. You are entitled to transmit the obtained personal data to another personal data controller.

In managing personal data, we may make your personal data subject to an automated decision if such a decision is necessary for entering into, or performance of, a contract between you and us, or if the decision is permitted by a legal regulation of the European Union or Czech law and at the same time suitably ensures the protection of the rights and freedoms and legitimate interests of the data subject, or if you have given explicit consent to such a decision.
