This privacy policy explains how E-VOLTIVA CZ sro processes the personal data of visitors and customers of the REN Solar online store at https://rensolar.eu , persons who contact us, and participants in our partner program.

When processing personal data, we proceed in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council (GDPR), Act No. 110/2019 Coll., on the processing of personal data, and other relevant legal regulations. These principles fulfill the information obligation; reading them, using the website, or submitting an order does not in itself constitute consent to the processing of personal data. We require consent separately only for processing that requires it.

1. Personal data controller and contacts

The controller of personal data, which determines the purposes and means of their processing, is:

The designation "REN Solar" in these policies refers to the e-shop operated by E-VOLTIVA CZ sro; "we" or "administrator" refers to this company.

2. What data do we process and where do we get it from?

Personal data is information about an identified or identifiable natural person. We only process data necessary for a specific purpose, in particular:

We collect data directly from you in particular when you make a purchase, register or communicate with us and when you use the website. We also collect information about payment and delivery from the relevant payment and transport providers. We may obtain the contact details of the recipient of the shipment or the customer representative from the ordering party or the represented organisation. We may verify business identification data in public registers.

If you provide data of another person, please only provide the data required for the order and inform the person concerned of these principles. This does not affect our own information obligation under Article 14 GDPR. If we obtain the data otherwise than directly from the person concerned, we will provide the requested information to the person concerned within the statutory period, usually no later than one month, upon first communication or upon first disclosure of the data to another recipient, whichever comes first, unless a statutory exception applies.

Please do not send us health information or other sensitive information in regular forms unless it is necessary for a specific request. Do not send us passwords or credit card security codes.

3. Processing purposes and legal grounds

Orders, delivery and customer account

We process identification, contact, order and payment data for the purpose of accepting and processing an order, concluding a contract, delivery, communicating about the order and settling payments. The legal basis is the performance of a contract or taking measures prior to its conclusion at your request pursuant to Article 6(1)(b) GDPR. We use the same legal basis for the establishment and management of a customer account that you request, to the extent necessary for the provision of this service.

If you are acting on behalf of a legal entity, we process your work contact details based on a legitimate interest pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) GDPR for the conclusion and performance of a contract with the represented organization.

Questions, requests and customer support

We handle inquiries aimed at concluding a contract on the basis of Article 6(1)(b) GDPR. For other routine inquiries, the legal basis is our legitimate interest in receiving answers and providing customer support pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. We do not require consent to marketing to handle routine inquiries.

Accounting, taxes, claims and other legal obligations

We process personal data to the extent necessary to fulfill the obligations set forth in particular by Act No. 563/1991 Coll., on accounting, Act No. 235/2004 Coll., on value added tax, Act No. 634/1992 Coll., on consumer protection, and Act No. 89/2012 Coll., the Civil Code. The legal basis is Article 6, paragraph 1, letter c) of the GDPR. Depending on the nature of the request, the performance of the contract pursuant to Article 6, paragraph 1, letter b) of the GDPR will also apply when handling a complaint or withdrawal.

Protection of rights and security of the e-shop

We retain documents to the extent necessary and reasonable for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims and process technical records to protect accounts, prevent fraud, detect incidents and ensure the availability of the website. The legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. Our legitimate interests are the protection of rights and property, customer safety and the secure operation of the e-shop. Before using this reason, we assess its necessity and impact on your rights; it does not serve as a general authorisation for marketing tracking.

Newsletter and other electronic business communications

You can unsubscribe at any time free of charge via the unsubscribe link in each message or by sending a message to rensolar@rensolar.eu . You can object to direct marketing at any time; we will then no longer process your data for this purpose. This also applies to related profiling.

Service messages necessary for order processing or account security may be sent even after you have opted out of marketing; they do not serve to circumvent your opt-out of advertising communications.

Affiliate program

If you sign up for the partner program, we process the data necessary for managing the partner account, recording and paying out commissions and communicating about cooperation on the basis of Article 6(1)(b) GDPR. For contact persons of legal entities, the legitimate interest applies according to Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. We fulfill accounting and tax obligations according to Article 6(1)(c) GDPR. Tracking visitors via partner cookies is governed by the consent rules in Section 4; the contract with the partner itself does not replace the visitor's consent.

Provision of data and consequences of failure to provide it

Data marked as mandatory for an order or account is required to conclude or perform the relevant contract; without it, we may not be able to process the order or set up an account. Some billing data is required by law. Other data and consents are voluntary. Opting out of marketing or optional cookies does not prevent a purchase. If you do not provide the data necessary to answer a question, we may not be able to process it.

4. Cookies, analytics and advertising tools

Cookies are small files stored in the browser. Local storage, tracking pixels and other technologies can function in a similar way. The rules under Section 89(3) of Act No. 127/2005 Coll., on electronic communications, also apply to other storage of information in the terminal device or access to it, not only to files called "cookies".

Necessary and optional technologies

Optional technologies should only be activated after you have given your consent. Silence, continuing to browse, pre-ticked boxes or standard browser settings do not replace consent. Consent must be as easy to refuse as it is to give and to revoke. Revocation does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before its revocation.

Overview of tools used and retention periods

Analytics and advertising tools may work with browser identifiers, device data, pages visited, and website events. For advertising tools, the data may be linked to data the provider already has, such as a user account with their service. The extent depends on the specific tool, settings, and your choices.

For Google services, further information is available in the Google Privacy Policy ; for Meta services, inthe Meta Privacy Policy . This information supplements the description of our own processing, but does not replace it.

Cookies can also be deleted or blocked in your browser. Blocking essential cookies may, for example, limit login or shopping cart functionality. Deleting cookies in itself may not revoke consent or remove data that has already been transmitted to providers; please also use the consent controls or contact us.

5. To whom do we disclose personal data?

We make data available only to the extent necessary for the described purposes and on the appropriate legal basis. Depending on the services used, these are mainly the following categories of recipients:

If a supplier processes personal data on our behalf, we enter into an agreement with them pursuant to Article 28 GDPR. Some recipients, such as banks or carriers, may act as separate controllers for their own legal and contractual purposes. The role of the recipient is determined by the specific activity, not just by the designation in the contract.

This policy does not authorize unlimited sharing of data with business partners or use of data for any new purposes. We will inform you in advance of any further processing and provide an adequate legal basis.

6. Transfer of data outside the European Economic Area

When using foreign providers, in particular analytical, advertising or cloud services, data may be transferred outside the European Economic Area, for example to the USA, including remote support access from a third country. Such transfer must have, in addition to the legal basis for processing, an appropriate mechanism according to Chapter V of the GDPR.

We will also provide you with information about the guarantees used and how to obtain a copy of them at rensolar@rensolar.eu . Mere use of the website or familiarization with these policies does not constitute consent to transfer to third countries.

7. How long do we keep data?

We determine the retention period individually based on the purpose and legal obligations. Longer retention of some documents does not justify keeping all data in an active customer or marketing profile.

After the relevant period, we will delete or irreversibly anonymize the data. In backups, deletion may take place within the specified cycle; data designated for deletion may not be returned from the backup to normal processing without re-applying deletion.

8. Your rights

Under the conditions set out in the GDPR, you have the following rights in particular:

Right to object

You may object at any time to processing based on legitimate interest pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) GDPR on grounds relating to your particular situation. We will no longer process the data unless we demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

You may object at any time and without giving any reasons to processing for direct marketing purposes, including related profiling. In such a case, we will cease processing for this purpose.

How to exercise your rights

Write to rensolar@rensolar.eu or to the address of the controller's registered office specified in Part 1. Please indicate what the request concerns. If we have reasonable doubts about the identity of the applicant, we may only request additional information necessary to verify it.

We will inform you of the measures taken on the basis of the request without undue delay, at the latest within one month of receipt. If necessary, given the complexity and number of requests, the deadline may be extended by a further two months; we will inform you of the extension and the reasons for it within the first month. If we do not grant the request, we will inform you of the reasons and the possibilities of defence within the same basic deadline.

Processing is generally free of charge. Only in the case of manifestly unfounded or disproportionate requests, in particular repeated ones, can a reasonable fee be requested or the request be refused under the conditions of Article 12(5) GDPR; we must document these circumstances.

Complaint and judicial protection

If you believe that we are processing your data unlawfully, you may file a complaint with the Office for Personal Data Protection , Pplk. Sochora 27, 170 00 Prague 7, https://uoou.gov.cz , or with another competent supervisory authority pursuant to Article 77 of the GDPR. Prior contact with our company is not a condition for filing a complaint. The right to judicial protection and possible compensation for damage under the terms of the GDPR is also preserved.

9. Automated decision-making and profiling

The advertising tools described in Section 4 may, based on consent, evaluate the interests of visitors and create advertising audiences. Such profiling should be distinguished from decision-making based solely on automated processing that produces legal or similarly significant effects on a person within the meaning of Article 22 GDPR.

10. Security of personal data

We take technical and organizational measures appropriate to the risks of processing pursuant to Article 32 GDPR. Their purpose is to protect personal data against unauthorized access, alteration, loss or disclosure. We limit access to data to persons who need it for the relevant activity and are obliged to protect the confidentiality of the data. We continuously evaluate the level of security and the measures taken.

If a personal data breach occurs, we proceed in accordance with Articles 33 and 34 of the GDPR, including the potential obligation to report the breach to the supervisory authority and inform the affected persons.

11. Personal data of children

If an information society service is offered directly to a child and the processing is based on his or her consent, in the Czech Republic the child may give this consent independently from the age of 15 pursuant to Section 7 of Act No. 110/2019 Coll. For a younger child, consent or approval of consent by a person exercising parental responsibility and adequate verification of this fact are required under the conditions of Article 8 of the GDPR.

This limit applies to the consent given; it does not establish a general prohibition on processing data of persons under the age of 15 and does not itself decide on the capacity of a minor to conclude a purchase contract. If you become aware of possible unauthorized processing of a child's data, please contact us.

12. Links and embedded third-party content

The website may contain links to other websites. Once you have accessed them, the processing carried out by their operators is subject to their own policies. Embedded elements, such as maps or social media content, may, on the other hand, transmit technical data to a third party when they are loaded on our website. We also assess the necessary legal basis and any consent for these elements; the mere reference to external policies does not replace our obligations.

13. Policy changes and contact

We update the policy when processing or legal requirements change. The current wording and the date of the update are available on this page. We will inform you of material changes in an appropriate and understandable manner. If the processing is to be extended to a new purpose, we will provide the necessary information before it begins and ensure an adequate legal basis. If the change requires new consent, we will request it separately; updating the policy itself or continuing to use the website does not replace it.

Please send questions about personal data protection and requests to exercise your rights to rensolar@rensolar.eu or in writing to E-VOLTIVA CZ sro, Kloboukova 1231/75, Chodov, 148 00 Prague 4, Czech Republic.
