SECTION 2 – Collected Personal Data, Processing Methods, and Purposes
The IT systems and software procedures responsible for the operation of this Website acquire, during their normal operation, certain data whose transmission is automatic in the use of Internet communication protocols and are not associated with identified or identifiable users. In particular, this includes data related to email addresses or domain names of the computers used by users who connect to the site and other technical information automatically sent by connection management programs. These data are used solely to establish the connection.
Apart from the browsing data mentioned above, the user is free to provide personal data through specific electronic request forms available in the sections of the Website prepared for particular requested services. However, failure to provide such data may result in the inability to obtain the requested service.
Through the Website, the Controller collects and processes the following data:
(A) Browsing data: Data provided through the use of the Website, processed to enable its proper functionality. In this regard, we invite you to read the Cookie Policy at https://bkn301.com/cookie-policy/.
(B) Data voluntarily provided by the user: Identifying data (name, surname, date of birth, company name, email, phone number, country, and other data voluntarily and optionally provided by the user). These data will be processed to:
(i) provide the user with the requested services;
(ii) provide the user with information.
These personal data are necessary for the above-mentioned purposes. Refusing to provide them will result in the inability to transmit the requested information to the Controller and to provide any requested services.
(C) Additional Purposes – Promotional, Commercial, and Marketing: With the user’s prior consent, the user’s personal data may be used by the Controller, both via electronic means (such as SMS, instant messaging, email, etc.) and traditional means (such as mail, telephone, fax, and/or invoice attachments), for the following purposes:
- Sending/communication of advertising, informational, and promotional materials regarding new BKN301 products/services;
- Measuring customer satisfaction regarding the quality of the provided product/service, as well as conducting statistical and market research.
Except for browsing data, which are regulated by the Cookie Policy available at https://bkn301.com/cookie-policy/, the collected personal data are provided voluntarily and directly by the user through the use of the Website.
The acquired data are processed using automated tools for purposes related to Website browsing and are stored only for the time strictly necessary to achieve the purposes for which they were collected. The systems are equipped with appropriate and necessary security measures to prevent data loss, unlawful or incorrect use, and unauthorized access. However, due to the nature of online transmission, these measures cannot entirely eliminate any risk of unauthorized access or data leakage. Therefore, it is recommended to periodically check that your computer is equipped with appropriate software tools to protect network data transmission, both incoming and outgoing (such as updated antivirus systems) and that your Internet service provider has adopted suitable security measures (such as firewalls and anti-spam filters).
SECTION 3 – Legal Basis for Processing and Retention Period
Except for browsing data, the legal basis for processing is as follows:
(i) Website usage – Section 2 (B): The legal basis lies in the contract concluded between the user and BKN301 for the use of the Website itself, by the user’s acceptance of the T&Cs.
(ii) Marketing and third-party communication – Section 2 (C): These processing activities are based on the consent that may be provided by the user.
The collected Personal Data are stored only for the time strictly necessary to achieve the purposes for which they were collected.
SECTION 4 – Categories of Data Recipients
For the purposes mentioned above, the user’s personal data collected by BKN301 may be known by:
(i) Employees and consultants of BKN301, within their work duties, acting as authorized data processors and instructed accordingly by the Controller;
(ii) External consultants and third parties (technical service providers, technological providers, banking institutions, service providers necessary for Website management/maintenance, as well as third-party call center companies).
The entities mentioned in point (ii) act as Data Processors.
SECTION 5 – Data Transfer Abroad
BKN301, solely for the purposes specified in Section 2, or for technical/operational needs, reserves the right to transfer personal data to foreign countries within the European Union or to countries benefiting from an adequacy decision by the European Commission, or to foreign states with which the United Kingdom has signed bilateral agreements or treaties allowing personal data exchanges while ensuring appropriate safeguards for their processing in compliance with the Law. Any transfer of data to international organizations and/or countries not covered by the above categories will be carried out in compliance with the applicable legal framework.

3. Right to Erasure
You may request the Controller to delete your Personal Data if one of the conditions provided by Law is met. This includes, for example, cases where the Personal Data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed, or if the processing is based on your consent, which you have withdrawn, and no other legal basis for processing exists.
Please note that the withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal. However, BKN301 may not proceed with the deletion of your Personal Data if its processing is necessary, for instance, to comply with a legal obligation, for reasons of public interest, or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

You may obtain the restriction of the processing of your Personal Data if one of the conditions provided by Law applies. This includes, for example, cases where you contest the accuracy of your Personal Data being processed or when your Personal Data is necessary for the establishment, exercise, or defense of a legal claim, even if BKN301 no longer requires it for processing purposes
5. Right to Data Portability
If the processing of your Personal Data is based on consent or is necessary for the performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures and is carried out using automated means, you may:
- Request to receive the Personal Data you have provided in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format (e.g., computer or tablet);
- Transmit the Personal Data you have received to another Data Controller without any hindrance from BKN301.
You may also request that your Personal Data be directly transferred by BKN301 to another Data Controller of your choice, provided this is technically feasible for BKN301.

If you choose to exercise the right to object as described here, BKN301 will refrain from further processing your Personal Data, unless there are compelling legitimate grounds for processing that override the interests, rights, and freedoms of the data subject or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.
7. Right to Lodge a Complaint with the UK Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO)
Without prejudice to your right to seek remedy in any other administrative or judicial venue, if you believe that the processing of your Personal Data by the Controller is in violation of the Law and/or applicable regulations, you may lodge a complaint with the UK Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO).
