The Operator uses cookies to identify Website users and analyze how they interact with the Website to facilitate continuous improvement.

Processing involves any action (operation) or set of actions performed with or without automated tools, including collection, recording, organization, accumulation, storage, updating (modification), extraction, usage, transfer (provision, access), anonymization, blocking, deletion, or destruction of personal data. This Policy specifies the purposes, categories of data, data subjects, processing methods, storage terms, and destruction procedures for each processing purpose.
The Operator processes personal data both with and without automated tools, including within personal data information systems.
Data will be processed as long as necessary to achieve the specific purpose.
If the Data Subject withdraws consent or requests cessation of data processing, the Operator may archive the data and retain it for up to three (3) years.
The Operator takes necessary measures to protect personal data against unauthorized, accidental, or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, misuse, disclosure, or access, and other illegal forms of processing.
By default, personal information is processed by automated equipment without human access. If access is required, only authorized personnel are granted access to fulfill processing purposes. These individuals must adhere to internal regulations, procedures, and security measures to ensure confidentiality.
Both automated and manual data processing are conducted in secure environments.
Disclosure of personal data occurs only in compliance with Georgian law, such as by court order or at the request of law enforcement agencies.
The Operator assumes the Data Subject provides accurate and complete information in good faith, updates data as needed, and ensures its relevance.
The Operator is not responsible for processing third-party data provided by the User as their own. The User assumes all liability for submitting false data.
The Operator does not knowingly process data from minors and recommends the Website be used by individuals aged 18 or older. Responsibility for minors’ actions, including purchases on the Website, rests with their legal representatives. If the Operator discovers unauthorized collection of minors’ data without parental consent, such information will be promptly deleted.
The Operator may transfer personal data (via access or provision) to the following third parties:
Additionally, this includes instances where the User enables their device to accept, transmit, and store cookies containing personal data.

If these settings or features are deemed insufficient, the Data Subject may send a written request to the Operator’s email address specified in this Policy.
An individual may authorize, restrict, or prohibit the processing of third-party personal data only based on legal representation (e.g., parents, guardians) or an agreement (e.g., power of attorney) granting the right to authorize data processing on behalf of the third party. If the individual lacks or loses the authority to grant such permissions, they must refrain from submitting data to the Operator or remove the data accordingly. In case of disputes, they are obligated to resolve them independently and indemnify the Operator against related claims. Non-compliance with these requirements obligates the individual to compensate the Operator for any resulting damages or losses.
The Data Subject is responsible for ensuring the accuracy, timeliness, and relevance of the provided information. Failure to do so exempts the Operator from liability for unfulfilled obligations, damages, or losses.
The Data Subject has the right to:

The Operator will inform Data Subjects who have previously agreed to the Policy about any amendments. The chosen method of notification ensures that the Data Subject’s consent for data processing remains specific, informed, conscious, and unambiguous.
The place where consent is granted and the Policy is executed is the Operator’s registered location. The applicable law governing the relationship between the Operator and the Data Subject is the legislation of Georgia, irrespective of the Data Subject’s location or the equipment used. All disputes will be resolved at the Operator’s location unless otherwise mandated by law.
The Policy takes effect from the moment the Data Subject consents to its terms and remains valid indefinitely. The indefinite validity of the Policy as a document does not imply unlimited processing of personal data. Unilateral termination of the Policy by either party is not permitted.
The Data Subject may exercise all rights granted to them as a data subject and obtain clarification on issues related to the processing of personal data by contacting the Operator at the Operator’s email address.
The Data Subject is hereby informed under this Policy that failure to provide the Operator with the following categories of personal data: first name, last name, middle name, phone number, and email address will result in the inability to conclude and fulfill the contract between the Operator and the Data Subject.
