2. Personally Identifiable Information
“Personally identifiable information” is information that we can use to identify you as an individual. Personally identifiable information include your name, address, telephone number and anyother information that is connected with you personally. It is also known as “personal data”.
Honeycomb collects personally identifiable information only if the customer supplies it voluntarily during the order process on our website or when getting in touch with us using contact form or subscribing to our newsletter.
All personal data is kept in our database and will not be shared with or sold to any third parties, with the exception of financial institutions in cases where identity theft or fraud is suspected and other state or international institutions when it is prescribed by law.
3. Lawfulness of processing
Personally identifiable information is processed by Honeycomb only for regular business purposes: to deliver products and services, to administrate customer accounts and provide customer support. With your consent, it might be also used for direct marketing purposes.
If you want to buy our products or services, we need your name, surname and, if you have one, company name, etc. It is also necessary that you provide us your exact address (street, apartment number, city, province, country), email and telephone address, so that we can contact with you and deliver ordered products. In case you need support, we also keep your login password and the IP address. Processing of those data is necessary for the performance of a contract in which you are a party or in order to undertake steps at your request prior to concluding a contract and for compliance with a legal obligation.
On the other hand, your name and surname, company name, and address will be used to issue an invoice. It is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation.
In order to verify your identity you may be asked to provide us with a scan of your ID card or bill.

Where processing has been restricted on this basis, we may continue to store your personal data.
You have the right to object to our processing of your personal data for direct marketing purposes. If you make such an objection, we will cease to process your personal data for this purpose.

You may do so in the EU member state of your habitual residence, your place of work or the place of the alleged infringement.
