Most information comes directly from you or from your device during normal site use.
03 · Cookies

Essential cookies support core site functions, such as page delivery and basic security. Preference cookies remember your privacy choices so the site can respect them on later visits. We do not confirm the use of analytics or advertising cookies.

Only limited cookie types are used on this site.

Cookie Controls

We use essential cookies for site operation and cookies that remember privacy choices. Because tracking is not enabled, we do not rely on analytics or marketing cookies. You can usually block or delete cookies in your browser, but some site functions may not work as intended if essential cookies are disabled.

Data processing overview

How personal data is used and shared

This section outlines the primary purposes for processing personal data, the categories of recipients involved in service delivery, and the legal context that may govern disclosure.

Processing purpose

Why We Use Data

We process data to answer contact requests, manage service preferences, deliver the website, maintain security, and troubleshoot technical issues. We also use limited information to meet legal obligations and to keep records needed for administration and accountability.

We use personal data for specific operational purposes tied to the site.
Third-party sharing

Service Providers

Where outside support is needed for hosting, technical delivery, or message handling, we may provide limited data to those providers. They should receive only the information needed to perform their role and are expected to handle it under appropriate confidentiality and security obligations.

Any recipient is expected to use the data only for the task we assign.
Legal basis

Legal Disclosure

We may share personal data with service providers that help us operate the website, deliver messages, or maintain security. We may also disclose information if required by law, to respond to lawful requests, or to protect our rights, users, or systems.

We disclose data only when there is a lawful or operational reason to do so.
User Rights

Your Rights

You may ask us to review, correct, delete, or limit the personal data we hold about you, subject to legal and operational limits. Where processing is based on legitimate interests, you may also object in situations allowed by law.

Your rights depend on the type of data and the legal basis for processing.
Requests

How to Make a Request

To exercise your rights, send a clear request and describe the data or issue involved. We may ask for enough information to confirm your identity and understand the request. If we cannot act on part of a request, we will explain the reason where permitted.

Requests are handled through the contact details listed in this policy and may require verification.
Data Retention

How Long We Keep Data

Contact inquiries are retained for the time needed to respond and manage the matter, then deleted or archived if a legal or operational reason remains. Technical records are kept for a practical period needed for security, delivery, and troubleshooting, after which they are removed or anonymized where possible.

We keep data only for as long as it is needed for the stated purpose or required by law.
Policy Updates

Policy Updates

If we make material changes, we will update the policy on this page and, where appropriate, draw attention to the change through the site or another reasonable channel. The version in effect is the one posted most recently.

We may revise this policy when our practices or legal duties change.
GDPR
Regulation

GDPR Overview

Under the GDPR, we process personal data only when we have a lawful basis for doing so, such as responding to your request, meeting legal obligations, protecting the site, or relying on consent where it is needed. We keep the scope of processing limited to what is necessary for the stated purpose.

Because Science Dress Bear is based in Austria and the site is intended for users in the European Union, GDPR rules apply where the regulation covers our processing.
This section explains how GDPR applies to our processing of personal data.
GDPR Ready

Your GDPR Rights

You may have the right to access your data, correct inaccurate information, ask for deletion, restrict certain processing, object to processing based on legitimate interests, and request portability where applicable. If we rely on consent, you may withdraw it for future processing. You also have the right to raise a concern with the competent data protection authority.

GDPR rights are available where the law gives them to you and where no legal exception applies.
