3.3. The legal basis for processing is Article 6(1)(a), (b), (c) and (f) of the General Data Protection Regulation: the data subject’s consent; the performance of a contract or steps taken at the data subject’s request before entering into one; compliance with a legal obligation of the controller; the legitimate interests of the controller or a third party, except where they are overridden by the data subject’s interests or fundamental rights.

When none of these applies any longer, the personal data is irreversibly deleted or anonymised.
3.5. To meet its obligations to you, the controller may pass your personal data to partners and processors acting on our behalf, such as accountants and courier services. Payments are processed by the payment platform makecommerce.lv, so we pass the personal data needed for a payment to the platform’s owner, Maksekeskus AS.
