Where applicable under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), we process personal information on one or more of the following legal bases:

Pre-contractual Measures

When you contact us regarding a potential project, service, quotation, proposal, or collaboration, processing your information may be necessary in order to take steps at your request before entering into a contract.

Legitimate Interests

We may process personal information where it is reasonably necessary for our legitimate business interests, including responding to enquiries, communicating with prospective or existing clients, protecting our website, and operating our business.

We only rely on legitimate interests where those interests do not override your fundamental rights and freedoms.

Legal Obligations

In some circumstances, we may be required to retain or process information in order to comply with legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, or other applicable obligations.

5. Storage of Contact Form Information

OSNOVA does not maintain a separate website database containing contact-form submissions.

When you submit the contact form, the information you provide is transmitted through our website and email delivery infrastructure so that OSNOVA can receive and respond to your enquiry.

Your enquiry may also remain within our business email inbox and related correspondence for as long as reasonably necessary to:

  • Respond to your enquiry
  • Continue business discussions
  • Maintain relevant business correspondence

Information that is no longer reasonably necessary will be deleted in accordance with our normal business practices and any applicable legal requirements.

OSNOVA uses Resend, an email delivery service operated by Plus Five Five, Inc., to process and deliver messages submitted through the website.

Some of the technology providers used by OSNOVA may process personal information using infrastructure located outside Greece or outside the European Economic Area.

Where personal information is transferred to countries outside the European Economic Area, appropriate legal safeguards are used where required by applicable data-protection legislation.

These safeguards may include mechanisms such as Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission or other recognised legal transfer mechanisms.
