YOUR RIGHTS AND HOW TO EXERCISE THEM
GENERAL INFORMATION ON HOW TO EXERCISE YOUR RIGHTS
When we process your personal data, you as a data subject have several rights under the GDPR. These rights are briefly described below. If you would like to read more about your rights, please visit the website of the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) via the link stated in connection with each right.
To exercise your rights, you can always contact us using our contact details, which you will find above under the heading “Contact details for Serenata Flowers”.
RIGHT TO INFORMATION
You have the right to receive information about how Serenata Flowers processes your personal data. Such information is provided through this Data Protection Information when your personal data is collected and is always available on the Website. You are also entitled to receive specific information if a personal data breach occurs that is likely to result in a high risk to your rights and freedoms.
To exercise this right, you can always contact us using our contact details, which you will find above under the heading “Contact details for Serenata Flowers”.
You can read more about your right to information on the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) website.
RIGHT OF ACCESS
You have the right to obtain access to a copy of the personal data that Serenata Flowers processes about you (a so-called “data subject access request”). Your right of access is not absolute; in some cases, there are provisions in law that prevent us from disclosing certain information to you, e.g. anti money laundering legislation. Under certain circumstances, Serenata Flowers may also refuse your request for access, for example if you request access to your personal data many times within a short period.
To exercise this right, you can always contact us using our contact details, which you will find above under the heading “Contact details for Serenata Flowers”.
You can read more about your right of access on the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) website.
RIGHT TO RECTIFICATION
You have the right to have inaccurate personal data rectified or to have incomplete personal data completed. The right to rectification applies both to personal data collected from you, from third parties or public sources and to personal data created by Serenata Flowers.
To exercise this right, you can always contact us using our contact details, which you will find above under the heading “Contact details for Serenata Flowers.
You can read more about your right to rectification on the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) website.
RIGHT TO ERASURE
You have the right to request the erasure of your personal data, for example when it is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected. In some cases, however, there may be circumstances that limit your right to erasure, for example if you have entered into an agreement with us that requires us to process your personal data. There are also legal obligations that prevent us from erasing certain information even after any relationship with us has ended. These obligations arise, among other things, from bookkeeping legislation and consumer protection legislation. In such cases, we ensure that such personal data is not processed for any other purpose than to enable us to comply with these obligations, and we also restrict access to such personal data for Serenata Flowers’s employees where necessary.
To exercise this right, you can always contact us using our contact details, which you will find above under the heading “Contact details for Serenata Flowers”.
You can read more about your right to erasure on the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) website.
RIGHT TO RESTRICTION OF PROCESSING
You have the right to request that our processing of your personal data be restricted. A restriction may be made, for example, if you believe that the personal data we process about you is inaccurate and you have requested rectification. During the time we are verifying whether the personal data is correct, you can request that we restrict our processing of your personal data.
Further situations where you have the right to restriction include if you consider our processing of your personal data to be unlawful, when we no longer need the personal data but you need it in order to establish, exercise or defend legal claims, or if you have objected to processing based on a balancing of interests (i.e. our legitimate interest). In the latter case, you can request that we restrict our processing g of your personal data during the time we handle your objection.
To exercise this right, you can always contact us using our contact details, which you will find above under the heading “Contact details for Serenata Flowers”.
You can read more about your right to restriction on the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) website.
RIGHT TO OBJECT TO CERTAIN PROCESSING
You have the right to object at any time to our processing of your personal data where we base the processing on a balancing of interests as legal basis (i.e. our legitimate interest). Continued processing of your personal data then requires that we demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the specific processing.
You always have the right to object at any time to direct marketing without any balancing of interests. Where our direct marketing is carried out digitally, you can always unsubscribe from future mailings by clicking on the “unsubscribe link” in the relevant communication.
To exercise this right, you can always contact us using our contact details, which you will find above under the heading “Contact details for Serenata Flowers”.
You can read more about your right to object on the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) website.
RIGHT TO DATA PORTABILITY (RIGHT TO MOVE YOUR PERSONAL DATA)
The right to move personal data is called the right to data portability in the GDPR. If you have consented to providing your personal data to us, or if you have provided the personal data to us in connection with an agreement, you have the right to request the data and receive it in a machine-readable format so that you can transfer your personal data yourself. You may also request that we transfer the personal data to another controller, for example another e-retailer. Serenata Flowers is only obliged to transfer the personal data if it is technically feasible.
To exercise this right, you can always contact us using our contact details, which you will find above under the heading “Contact details for Serenata Flowers”.
You can read more about your right to data portability on the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) website.

PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA TO FULFIL YOUR RIGHTS
In order for us to be able to accommodate the exercise of your rights, we also need to process your personal data for this purpose. This means that, in addition to processing your personal data for each original purpose specified in this Data Protection Information, we will also retain the relevant personal data in order to fulfil this purpose. We store your personal data for this purpose, i.e. to fulfil your rights under the GDPR, for as long as we store your personal data for the original purpose. We base this processing on Article 6.1(c) GDPR, i.e. Serenata Flowers’s legal obligation to comply with the provisions of the GDPR.
TRANSFER OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA TO THIRD PARTIES
In certain circumstances, it may be necessary for us to share your personal data with external parties in order for us to conduct our business, for example we may share data with our suppliers where we need access to systems, functions or other services they provide that we cannot develop or supply ourselves. In such cases, we implement all reasonable and appropriate technical, legal and organisational measures to ensure that your personal data is handled securely and with an adequate level of protection.
In most cases, the recipient of your personal data is a company that may only process the personal data on behalf of Serenata Flowers and in accordance with Serenata Flowers’s instructions, so-called “processors”, with whom we have concluded data processing agreements. In the following list, you will find the categories of recipients with whom we may share your personal data.
Affiliate networks and intermediaries of cooperation partners
Part of Serenata Flowers’s marketing and advertising strategy is to cooperate with content creators. We use affiliate networks and other intermediaries of cooperation partners in the context of these collaborations. If you are a content creator with whom we have entered into or intend to enter into a collaboration, we may transfer your personal data to providers of affiliate networks and other intermediaries of cooperation partners in order to establish a collaboration. We base such transfers of your personal data on the performance of the agreement you have entered into with us. You can find more information about your rights under the section “Your rights and how to exercise them”.
Courts and authorities
We are sometimes obliged to provide certain data required by law to various courts and authorities, such as the National Tax Agency and the Police Authority. We may also disclose your personal data to authorities if you have consented to such disclosure. Further, we may share your personal data with relevant authorities if we suspect that a crime has been committed, or in order to assist law enforcement authorities in their investigations if they suspect that a crime has been committed and request information from us. In these cases, we base the transfer on our and the requesting law enforcement authority’s legitimate interest in having the relevant crime investigated. Authorities and courts that receive personal data may then process your personal data as independent controllers. You have the right to object to this processing based on circumstances relating to your particular situation. Such objections will be assessed on a case-by-case basis. You can find more information about your rights under the section “Your rights and how to exercise them”.
Insurance companies
Where applicable, if Serenata Flowers has suffered a loss, your personal data may be transferred to Serenata Flowers’s insurance company if necessary to settle the claim and thereby establish, exercise or defend us against legal claims. The transfer of your personal data is based on our legitimate interest in having the loss finally settled. You have the right to object to this processing based on circumstances relating to your particular situation. Such objections will be assessed on a case-by-case basis. You can find more information about your rights under the section “Your rights and how to exercise them”.
Debt collection agencies
If Serenata Flowers needs to collect an overdue debt in order to establish, exercise or defend legal claims, your personal data may be transferred to a debt collection agency based on our legitimate interest in collecting overdue debts. When the debt collection agency collects debts, it does so as an independent controller. You have the right to object to this processing based on circumstances relating to your particular situation. Such objections will be assessed on a case-by-case basis. You can find more information about your rights under the section “Your rights and how to exercise them”.
Legal advisors
If we for any reason need to establish, defend against or exercise legal claims, we may transfer your personal data to a legal advisor. We base such transfers on our legitimate interest in being able to establish, defend against or exercise legal claims. You have the right to object to this processing based on circumstances relating to your particular situation. Such objections will be assessed on a case-by-case basis. You can find more information about your rights under the section “Your rights and how to exercise them”.
Group companies
We may share your personal data with companies within our group in order to streamline our work and provide you with our products and services in the best possible way.

We base these transfers on our legitimate interest in cooperating within our group and in making our operations more efficient. You have the right to object to this processing based on circumstances relating to your particular situation. Such objections will be assessed on a case-by-case basis. You can find more information about your rights under the section “Your rights and how to exercise them”.
Buyers and sellers in business and company transactions
If Serenata Flowers buys or sells our business or assets, or if Serenata Flowers is acquired in whole or in part by a third party, your personal data may be shared with the potential buyer or seller in each such business transaction. The legal basis for such disclosure is Serenata Flowers’s legitimate interest in being able to carry out the relevant transaction. You have the right to object to this processing based on circumstances relating to your particular situation. Such objections will be assessed on a case-by-case basis. You can find more information about your rights under the section “Your rights and how to exercise them”.
Marketing agencies
In order for Serenata Flowers to create and carry out marketing and advertising activities, it is sometimes necessary for us to share your personal data with marketing agencies that manage our campaigns. We base such transfers of your personal data on our legitimate interest in marketing our products and our business to you. You have the right to object to this processing based on circumstances relating to your particular situation. Such objections will be assessed on a case-by-case basis. You can find more information about your rights under the section “Your rights and how to exercise them”.
Audit firms
To enable Serenata Flowers to fulfil our legal obligations under corporate and accounting legislation, your personal data may be transferred to audit firms tasked with reviewing, among other things, Serenata Flowers’s accounting and financial reporting. We base such transfers of your personal data on our legal obligations. Audit firms act as separate and independent controllers for their processing of your personal data. You can find more information about your rights under the section “Your rights and how to exercise them”.
Providers of payment services
We will share your personal data with companies that provide us with payment services. This is necessary for us to be able to administer your purchases and enter into purchase agreements with you.

You have the right to object to this processing based on circumstances relating to your particular situation. Such objections will be assessed on a case-by-case basis. You can find more information about your rights under the section “Your rights and how to exercise them”.
Providers of social media
When you choose to interact with us or our material on our social media via our Website, for example by interacting with a video, the companies behind such social media platforms will also collect and process your personal data. This means that a transfer of your personal data to third countries outside the EU/EEA may take place. The transfer is based on the consent you give by accepting the relevant cookies in our cookie banner. You can withdraw your consent at any time by changing your settings in our cookie banner. You can find more information about your rights under the section “Your rights and how to exercise them”.
