I. What data do we collect and for what purpose?

  1. If you contact us (Studio 1410 Shpk) via our website, e-mail or through other means in order to learn more about our services in general, to ask a general question or to sign up to our newsletter, we may collect the following data of you if you communicate it to us: name, business affiliation, function or title, e-mail address, postal address, telephone number, salutation (Mr/Ms/other) and language. The data collection is necessary for us to reply to your request and communicate with you. The legal basis is your consent.
  2. If you express interest in one of our services, solicit an estimate for one of our services, or publish a call for applications/tender to which we reply, we may collect the data listed in paragraph 1 as well as data necessary for billing and tax purposes. This may include your nationality, tax identification number and bank details. The legal basis is the performance of a contract. If you conclude a contract with us, after completion of the contract, we might also be required by law to retain certain data under Albanian tax regulations; the legal basis is then a legal requirement.
 

II. Where do we process and store your data?

  1. For our contact and client database, project management and accounting, we use cloud-based software applications. Your data is processed through and stored in these applications. The cloud servers are based in the European Union.
  2. Our offices are located in Albania. Your data may therefore be transferred to, and processed and stored in, our local IT system in Albania.
 

III. How long do we store your data?    

  1. If you have contacted us but do not become our client, we will delete your data no later than one year after you last communicated with us, unless you have given your consent for us to store your data longer (for instance if you signed up for our newsletter).
  2. If you become our client, we will store your data for ten years after you make the last payment to us. By law, we are required to store contract and invoice data for a ten-year period. If you give your consent to remain in our client database after this period, we will store your data longer based on your consent.
 

IV. Who do we share your data with?

  1. We do not share your data with third parties without your consent, except in the cases described in this section.
  2. We share your data included in our invoices and the data generated by your payments to us with our accounting service provider: A.R.S Legal & Financial Services, Qendra Sun Tower, Rruga Kavajes, 1003 Tirana, Albania. A.R.S. may process and store your data only for accounting and tax filing purposes on our behalf and only for as long as necessary to perform these tasks.
