For example, when you use the website, we will log your IP address, operating system type, browser type, referring website, pages you viewed, and the dates/times when you accessed the website. We may also collect information about actions you take when using the website, such as links clicked. Velos Constructions does not collect any other personal information when you are just browsing the website.

Velos Constructions uses cookies to ensure the website’s excellent performance. The cookies collect information about the way visitors use the website so that it becomes easier to optimize services, to transition from one page to another effortlessly and to gather accurate statistics. The same applies to Google Analytics and any other plugin used on this website as they gather statistics and not personal information.

Velos Constructions uses the SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) cryptographic protocol as it offers the greatest security when it comes to users’ personal data transfer. The SSL protocol codes every piece of information that the server receives when users use the contact form on the website, thus protecting their personal information as they are transferred on the internet.

1. Policy Implementation

This privacy policy explains how Velos Constructions collects, uses, processes, stores, handles and protects its users’ personal data which are gathered during their browsing the pages on the website velostec.com. All the personal data protection policies of the company abide by the law.

This policy does not apply to information gathered by other websites or by companies that we do not control. You should keep in mind that this website contains hyperlinks and advertising banners to other websites. For example, if you click on an ad on this website, you will be transferred to another website; in this case this privacy policy may not apply to the information collected by the new website. We are not responsible for the practices used for the personal data protection by other websites. We recommend that you read the privacy policy of every website you visit.

2. Information that is Collected

The website collects the following personal data:

• Name or username

3. How your information may be used

Velos Constructions collects personal data that users have voluntarily submitted to the website. This collection aims at providing access to online services such as responding to enquiries submitted through the contact form and personalisation of available services.

Automatically-collected information when you visit and interact with the website: We would like to inform you that appropriate technologies are used for the collection and processing of your personal details. This is essential to respond to your requests properly, to use the services of Velos Constructions effectively and to identify the website’s users.

Velos Constructions does not require access to your device’s GPS signal.

4. Data Collection Sources and Sharing with Third Parties

Users submit their personal data either automatically as they browse the website or consciously as they complete the necessary fields for a service. They also provide their personal details when they send us an email via the contact form.

5. How Long Are Personal Data Retained

The duration of personal data retention depends on the legal base of their use. If a user submits their personal information consciously so as to use the available services, we retain their data for as long as we have a business relationship with them. If, for whatever reason, the user retracts their consent and our relationship is terminated, we will retain their information until the statute of limitations passes and we are certain that we do not have any professional benefit to retain the specific client’s details any longer. The criterion for the clearance of the personal data storage is based on compliance with deadlines stated by the law and principles of minimisation of data, restrictions on the amount of information that can be saved or a responsible management of our documents.

Furthermore, Velos Constructions ensures that every individual acts under the guidance of data experts who have access to their personal data and give them permission to edit them only when necessary.

8. Cookies and Other Technologies

What are cookies and why does Velos Constructions use them: Cookies are small text files that are automatically placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit almost any website. They are stored by your Internet browser. Cookies contain basic information about your Internet use, but they do not normally identify you personally. Your browser sends these cookies back to the site every time you revisit it, so it can recognise your computer or mobile device and personalise and improve your site experience.

Under no circumstances do cookies contain personal information (such as phone number or email) that allow someone to come into contact with a visitor of the website. Additionally, cookies do not provide access to the documents and the files on your computer.

Cookies help us understand what did and didn’t interest you about our site, so we can provide you with features that are more relevant and useful to you next time you visit. We also use cookies to analyze how visitors use the site.

Which cookies do we use? The cookies we use fall into 3 categories:

• Essential cookies are necessary to help you access and move around our site and use all its features. Without these cookies, our website would not work properly and you would not be able to use certain important features. For example, we use a cookie to keep you logged in during your visit, so the site does not require you to log in repeatedly to access different pages. We also use essential cookies for fraud detection and prevention purposes.
• Performance cookies collect information about how visitors use a website, for instance which pages visitors go to most often. These cookies do not collect information that identifies a visitor. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. It is only used to improve how a website works.
• Functionality cookies allow the website to remember choices you make (such as your language or the region you are in) and provide enhanced, more personal features.

Do you want to delete cookies? Users may, at any time, prevent the setting of cookies by the website by using a corresponding setting of your internet browser and may thus permanently deny the setting of cookies. Furthermore, already set cookies may be deleted at any time via an Internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all popular Internet browsers. However, if users deactivate the setting of cookies in your Internet browser, not all functions of our website may be entirely usable.

The software of this website is designed in a way that provides the ultimate level of security. Only authorized employees, who have been specially trained in clients’ data management, are given access to your personal information when it is necessary in order to satisfy your requests.
