We may send marketing communications where you have consented or, where permitted by law, where there is an existing customer relationship and the communication concerns similar Simworx products or services. You can unsubscribe at any time by using the link in a marketing email or contacting support@sim-worx.com.
Withdrawing consent or objecting to marketing does not prevent us from sending necessary service messages about an enquiry, quotation, order, payment, delivery, installation, warranty or support matter.
7. Cookies and Similar Technologies
The website uses cookies and similar technologies for essential website and shop functions, preferences, analytics and marketing. Non-essential technologies, including relevant Google and Meta analytics or advertising technologies, will be used only in accordance with the choices made through our cookie settings. Further details are provided in our Cookie Notice, where you can also review or change your preferences.
8. When We Share Personal Data
We may share personal data, only as reasonably necessary, with:
website hosting, ecommerce, IT, security and technical-support providers;
Stripe, which processes online card payments, and relevant financial institutions;
couriers, freight forwarders, logistics providers, customs agents and installation contractors;
Mailerlite and other communications or mailing-list providers;
Google and Meta where their analytics or advertising technologies are enabled with the required consent;
accountants, tax advisers, legal advisers, insurers, auditors and debt-recovery providers;
distributors, suppliers and subcontractors involved in fulfilling a quotation, order, project or support request;
tax, customs, regulatory, law-enforcement, judicial and other public authorities where disclosure is required or lawful; and
a prospective purchaser, investor or successor in connection with a genuine sale, investment or reorganisation of all or part of the business, subject to appropriate confidentiality and data-protection safeguards.
We do not sell personal data.
9. International Transfers
Simworx sells and delivers products internationally. Personal data may therefore be shared with recipients outside the European Economic Area when necessary to fulfil an international order, arrange delivery or customs clearance, provide installation or support, or operate services supplied by international technology providers.
Where data-protection law requires safeguards for a transfer, we use an approved mechanism such as an adequacy decision, the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses or another lawful safeguard. You may contact us for further information about the safeguards relevant to your personal data.
10. Data Retention
We keep personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including to fulfil contracts, provide warranties and support, maintain product and project histories, establish or defend legal claims, and meet accounting, tax, customs and regulatory obligations.
Retention periods vary according to the type of record. In particular, commercial and accounting documentation will generally be retained for at least the periods required by Spanish law, which may include six years for relevant business records. Marketing data is retained until consent is withdrawn, an objection is made or the information is no longer required, subject to keeping a minimal suppression record so that the preference can be respected.
11. Security
We use appropriate technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal data against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure or access. Access is restricted according to business need, and providers processing personal data for us are required to protect it appropriately. No internet or storage system is completely secure, but we review and improve our safeguards as appropriate.
12. Your Data-Protection Rights
Subject to the conditions and exceptions in applicable law, you may have the right to:
obtain information about and access to your personal data;
correct inaccurate or incomplete personal data;
request deletion of personal data;
restrict the processing of personal data;
object to processing based on legitimate interests and object at any time to direct marketing;
receive certain personal data in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, or request its transfer where applicable;
withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent, without affecting earlier lawful processing; and
not be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing that produces legal or similarly significant effects, where this right applies.
To exercise a right, email support@sim-worx.com. We may request information reasonably necessary to verify your identity and clarify your request. We normally respond within one month, subject to any lawful extension.
13. Complaints
Please contact us first if you have a concern so that we have the opportunity to address it. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Agencia Española de Protección de Datos (AEPD), the Spanish data-protection authority, through www.aepd.es, or with another competent supervisory authority where applicable.
14. Children
Our website and products are not directed at children for the purpose of collecting their personal data. Orders must be placed by a person with legal capacity to enter into the relevant contract. If you believe that a child has provided personal data to us improperly, please contact support@sim-worx.com.
15. Third-Party Websites and Services
The website may contain links to third-party websites, platforms or services. Those third parties control their own privacy practices, and their notices should be reviewed separately. Simworx is not responsible for the privacy practices of an independent third party.
