Cookies

These are small files that a site or its service provider transfers to your computer’s hard drive through the Web Browser (if you allow this), which enables sites or service providers’ systems to recognize your browser and capture and remember certain information.

We use cookies to operate and provide our services, improve your experiences, understand how our services are used, and personalize our services according to your needs. Thus, we use cookies to understand which of our frequently asked questions are the most popular and to show you relevant content for our services. Additionally, we may use cookies to remember your choices, such as language preferences, to offer you a more secure experience and personalize our services for you. Learn more about how we use cookies in our Cookie Policy.

For what purpose do we process your personal data?

Any of the information we collect from you may be used in one of the following ways:

– To offer you personalized content (your information helps us better respond to your individual needs);

– To improve our Website (we continually strive to improve the quality of services offered by our website based on the information and feedback we receive from you);

– To improve customer service (your information helps us respond more effectively to customer requests and needs);

– To process transactions made;

– To contact you for detailing the Programs offered by us or for preliminary discussions before contracting – this will only happen after you have separately and expressly given your consent in this regard;

– For periodic marketing communications (sending newsletters, materials, articles, information about future products/services/projects) – this will only happen after you have separately and expressly given your consent in this regard;

* What gives us the right to process data?

1. Legal Basis

We will process your data only if we have a legal basis to do so. This legal basis will depend on the reasons for collecting and using your data.

2. Compliance with legal obligations

Managing and issuing the sales invoice is based on the company’s legal obligation in its relationship with customers. Thus, data collection in this regard will be based on our need to comply with the legal obligations that apply to us.

3. Consent

This can represent the legal basis for processing personal data for managing the sending of marketing information (articles, information about projects, events, etc.) or for contacting to detail the Maxwell Leadership Program.

The right to withdraw consent regarding data processing can be exercised by you at any time.

We mention that only persons aged at least 18 can give their consent. For those under this age, parental or legal guardian consent is required.

4. Legitimate Interest

Our legitimate interest lies in ensuring that our site is safe for you. It also helps us understand the needs, expectations, and satisfaction level of our users. Thus, we will be able to improve our products, services, and brands. We carry out all these actions to improve the satisfaction level of our visitors and customers.

How long do we keep the data?

Your personal data will only be kept for the time necessary to fulfill the purpose for which they are processed. Thus, to determine the appropriate retention period, we will consider the amount, nature of the data, and the purposes for which we process them and whether we can achieve these purposes by other means.

In calculating this period, we will consider the periods for which it might be necessary to keep personal data to fulfill our legal obligations or to handle your complaints or inquiries.

After this point of fulfilling the purpose for which they were processed, your personal data will be safely deleted or destroyed. It is also worth mentioning that we constantly consider how we can minimize the amount of personal data we use.

For example, if your data was obtained following your consent to be contacted for detailing the Maxwell Leadership Program, the data provided by you will be deleted after we contact you unless you expressly consent to remain in our database.

Similarly, if your data was obtained following your express consent to subscribe to one of our programs (Minute with Maxwell) or the Maxwell Leadership newsletter, the data will be deleted when this purpose ceases or when you withdraw your consent.

If the law requires us to keep your data for a certain period (in the case of the invoice, a period of 5 years is provided), your data will be deleted after this period expires.

To whom can we disclose your data?

Highlife Consulting SRL does not sell, exchange, or transfer your data to any other company/person for any reason without your consent given for this purpose. However, the communication of some of your data may be carried out for the express purpose of selling the purchased/requested product/service.

Thus, your data may be disclosed to the following recipients:

– Public administrations and bodies if they request them in accordance with fiscal, labor protection, social security, or any other applicable regulations;

– Companies responsible for delivering the product (only in the case of delivering ordered products or materials);

– Companies responsible for processing payment for your product/service;

In all cases, third parties with whom certain personal data is shared will demonstrate in advance the adoption of appropriate technical and organizational measures for the proper protection of your personal data. In this regard, we mention that our company concludes contracts with each such third party, specifying the personal data protection measures.

If you want more information regarding the communication of data to our partners, do not hesitate to contact us at the email address office@maxwellleadership.ro

How do we protect your personal data?

Our site uses information security techniques to prevent unauthorized access to data and ensure their confidentiality. We assure you that we have adopted all necessary technical and organizational measures to ensure the safety and integrity of the personal data we process, as well as to prevent their loss, destruction, or deterioration in any way.

All sensitive information is transmitted using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology, the industry standard method for encrypting personal information to ensure its safe transfer.

After any transaction, your personal information (credit cards, social security numbers, financial data, etc.) will not be stored on our servers. In this regard, we mention that we have a collaboration agreement with the euplatesc.ro platform for processing all transactions, which contains express clauses for protecting your data.

As mentioned, in some situations, we may disclose your information to trusted third parties, partners of our company with whom we have agreements that include strict data protection clauses, for the purposes established in this privacy policy. We require all our partners to have appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data.

We do not assume responsibility for the loss of information caused by software errors with which the site is designed and hosted, nor do we take responsibility for errors in the security of the server hosting the site.

Data Transfer

We do not sell, trade, or transfer your personal information to external parties, except in cases expressly provided in this Privacy Policy or where you have given your consent.

In some situations, your data may be transmitted to the company that assists us in managing our website or partners who support us in providing services. It is worth mentioning that we require all service providers to process your information securely and in accordance with Romanian and EU data protection regulations.

Additionally, your data may be transmitted to authorities if required by law.

However, information that does not constitute personal data may be disclosed to other parties for marketing, advertising, or other purposes.

Right to information: you have the right to request information about whether we hold personal information about you and, if so, what information it is and why we hold it;

Right to object to processing: you have the right to object to the processing of your personal information if the processing is based on a legitimate interest and something in your specific situation makes you object to processing on this ground.

Right to request restrictions on processing personal information: you have the right to ask us to suspend the processing of your personal data in certain cases.

Upon receiving your consent withdrawal notification, we will no longer process your information for the purpose(s) for which you withdrew it, unless we have another legitimate basis for doing so.
