Provision of the Personal Data
Provision of the Personal Data for Commercial Purposes is optional. However, if the data are not provided, this may make it impossible to enter into or perform the contract or the commercial relationship or to take the steps prior to entering into a contract that are requested.
The provision of Personal Data for Marketing Purposes is always optional. The only consequence of not doing so will be that you cannot be contacted to be told about commercial initiatives or products and services marketed by the Joint Controllers, unless you so request, except where marketing activity can be carried out on the basis of a legitimate interest in accordance with Art. 6 letter f) of the GDPR. You may deny consent to the use of the Personal Data for Marketing Purposes even if you have had to provide the Personal Data for Commercial Purposes or you intend to give your consent to Profiling Purposes. The consent for Marketing Purposes can be withdrawn at any time, simply by sending an e-mail to privacy@rollon.com.
The provision of Personal Data for Profiling Purposes is always optional. Any failure to provide the data will have as the only consequence the fact that the Joint Controllers may not process data involving the profiling of your purchasing habits by analyzing your Personal Data and, consequently, submitting to you offers, commercial communications or invitations to events based upon your preferences. You may deny consent to the use of the Personal Data for Profiling Purposes even if you have had to provide the Personal Data for Commercial Purposes or you intend to give your consent to Marketing Purposes. The consent for Profiling Purposes can be withdrawn at any time, simply by sending an e-mail to privacy@rollon.com.
Transfer of the Personal Data outside the EU
Personal Data collected for the Commercial Purposes, for the Marketing Purposes and for the Profiling Purposes can be transferred to third countries outside the European Union in which certain Joint Controllers and certain Joint Controllers' parent companies or companies in any way affiliated to the Joint Controllers or some external processors are based.

- In conformity with the provisions of Art. 45 of the GDPR, and, therefore, to countries for which adequacy decisions have been made by the European Commission confirming that the non-EU country offers an adequate level of protection for Personal Data transferred out of the European Union; or, alternatively,
- in conformity with the provisions of Art. 46 of the GDPR via the adoption of standard contractual clauses for the protection of Personal Data adopted by the European Commission on the basis of versions no. 2010/87/EU (cross-border transfers from controller to processor) and version no. 2004/915/EU (cross-border transfers from controller to controller), ensuring effective legal remedies and the data subjects' rights, including by entering into joint-controllers agreements.
