Website

The Privacy Policy is intended for users or customers via the Controller’s or Provider's website or websites: www.goto.si

Legislation

Slovenian and European legislations are used for the evaluation of this Privacy policy.

This Privacy policy is prepared according to the Personal Data Protection Act (ZVOP-2, Official Gazette of the RS, no. 163/22 and amend.), the Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and the Council from 27/04/2016 regarding the protection of individuals in personal information processing and the free flow of such information and repealing Directive 95/46/EC (General Data Protection Regulation, GDPR), the Electronic Communications Act (ZEKom-2, Official Gazette of the RS, no. 133/22 and amend.),  and other Slovenian and European legislation regulating these fields.

Legal principles

The Controller and their Processors respect the general principles related to the processing of the users’ personal data:
1. We process users’ personal data in a legal, fair, and transparent manner.
2. We collect personal data for purposes which are determined in advance, explicit, and legal, and we do not further process the data for other purposes, except for the purposes of scientific or historical research or statistics under certain conditions.
3. We process personal data in the smallest extent possible and for the purposes of processing.
4. We make sure that the processed personal data are accurate and regularly updated, whereby we rectify or erase the inaccurate data.
5. We only keep personal data for as long as it is necessary for the purposes of processing.
6. We ensure adequate protection of personal data, which includes the prevention of unauthorised or unlawful processing and unintentional loss, destruction, or damage of data, by implementing adequate technical and organisational measures.

Processing of Users’ Personal Data

The processing of personal data refers to any operation or set of operations performed on personal data or sets of personal data, whether by automated means or not, such as collection, recording, organization, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination, or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure, or destruction.

The controller may process personal data only if there is an appropriate legal basis for the processing. The controller processes users’ personal data exclusively for purposes that are clearly defined and compliant with applicable legislation. For each purpose of processing, the controller ensures transparency and informs users about:
1. the content of the processing purpose,
2. the type of personal data being processed,
3. the legal basis for processing, and
4. the retention periods.

If the controller processes personal data for new purposes that are not compatible with the existing legal basis or are not based on explicit consent:
1. the controller provides all necessary information to the user in advance, and
2. obtains new explicit consent if processing is based on such consent.

The controller ensures that all purposes of processing comply with the principles of data minimization, security, and privacy and that personal data is processed solely to the extent necessary to achieve the specified purpose.

Use of Cookies

The controller provides users with a clear and visible notice regarding the use of cookies upon visiting the website. This notice is available via a dedicated link in a prominent location on the website, where users can find all necessary information, including options for managing cookie preferences. The controller ensures users have a clear option to modify their consent later through a visible notice or link on the website. Users are also able to customize or reject cookies during their first visit and are informed about the consequences of rejecting cookies, such as potential limitations in functionality or user experience (e.g., restricted operation of certain features).

The controller may use cookies without the user's explicit consent if they are strictly necessary, required for the transmission of communications over an electronic communications network, or cookies essential for providing an information society service explicitly requested by the user (e.g., login to a user account, product purchase).

In all other cases, the controller provides a notice with the user's consent and informs the user of available options for managing cookie settings. The notice includes the following information:
1. The types and names of cookies (e.g., analytical, advertising, functional).
2. The purpose of each cookie (e.g., traffic monitoring, enabling a shopping cart, ad targeting).
3. The storage duration of each cookie (e.g., session cookies, persistent cookies).

LEGISLATIVE BASIS

Contractual Basis

Contractual basis for processing of personal data of users means that the processing is necessary for:
1. fulfilling the contract whose contracting party is the user to whom the personal data relate; or
2. implementing measures at the request of such user before concluding the contract.

The Controller provides the user with information on the processing of their personal data in this Privacy Policy and, when needed, with notifications on their website.

The Controller does not require an explicit consent for contractual processing of the user’s personal data.

If the user fails to provide all the personal data that the Controller needs to fulfil the contractual obligation, the Controller is unable to complete the user’s order. The Controller undertakes to only collect and process personal data from the user in the scope needed to fulfil the contract.

Legal basis

The controller processes users' personal data based on a legitimate legal basis when processing is necessary for the fulfillment of legal obligations applicable to the controller. Personal data is processed exclusively for the purpose of fulfilling legal obligations and is not subject to further processing for other purposes that are inconsistent with the law.

In the Republic of Slovenia, legal obligations for the processing of certain personal data are primarily defined in:
1. The Value Added Tax Act (ZDDV-1), which prescribes the obligation to issue and retain invoices;
2. The Rules on the Implementation of the Value Added Tax Act, which further regulate the content and retention of invoices;
3. The Tax Procedure Act (ZDavP-2), which governs obligations regarding the maintenance of records for tax purposes, stipulating that the controller must retain data from issued invoices (including users' personal data on the invoices) for at least 10 years after the end of the fiscal year to which the invoice pertains;
4. The Companies Act (ZGD-1), which specifies requirements for business books and reporting;
5. The Slovenian Accounting Standards (SRS), which regulate obligations for maintaining accounting records;
6. The Accounting Act (ZR), which outlines rules on the retention of business documents and records.

The controller does not require the user's explicit consent for the processing of personal data based on legal grounds.

Explicit Consent

Explicit consent serves as the legal basis for processing personal data when the controller does not have a legitimate or contractual legal basis or legitimate interest for processing.

User consent is valid when it meets the following criteria:
1. it is voluntary, specific, informed, and an unambiguous declaration of intent, whereby the user agrees to the processing of their personal data for a specific purpose;
2. it is provided through clear confirmation, such as clicking a checkbox (not pre-checked), signing, verbal confirmation, or another appropriate method;
3. it is always separate from other terms or provisions, where technically feasible.

The controller ensures appropriate user information prior to obtaining consent through the following methods:
1. Purpose description: A legal notice preceding the confirmation checkbox specifies the purpose of consent (e.g., “I would like to subscribe to the newsletter to receive additional information, advice, promotions, and other useful news.”).
2. Right to withdraw consent: Clearly stated in the legal notice preceding the checkbox, while additional rights are elaborated in these privacy terms (e.g., “You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time.”).
3. Direct link to privacy terms: The legal notice preceding the checkbox provides a direct link to these privacy terms (e.g., “I have read and agree to these Privacy Terms.”).

The controller maintains a record of given consents, including information on when and how consent was provided, to ensure proof of its validity in case of verification.

Legitimate interest

The controller may process users' personal data if it is necessary for legitimate interests pursued by the controller. Such processing is restricted to the scope required to achieve these legitimate interests while respecting the rights and interests of users.

In determining legitimate interests, the controller conducts a balancing test to verify whether:
1. he processing serves a legitimate purpose, such as service improvement, abuse prevention, legal claims enforcement, or direct marketing;
2. the personal data is processed in the minimum extent necessary to achieve the purpose;
3. the rights, freedoms, and interests of the user do not override the controller’s legitimate interests.

Examples of legitimate interests pursued by the controller include, but are not limited to:
1. enforcing legal claims;
2. improving user experience through behavior analysis to optimize the website, provided that the data is anonymized or processed with minimal impact on users;
3. direct marketing by sending tailored offers for similar products or services to existing customers, ensuring users can always opt out of such communications and that the data is not used for incompatible purposes.

Public interest

The Controller may process personal data of users if the processing is necessary for:
1. performing tasks in the public interest, or
2. exercising public authority given to the Controller.

Protection of the interests of natural persons

The Controller can process personal data if the processing is necessary for the protection of vital interests of the user or other natural person.

PERSONAL DATA

Type of personal data

Types of users’ personal data processed for the purposes determined in advance include:


  1. name and surname
  2. e-mail address
  3. telephone number
  4. IP address
  5. cookie ID

Purpose of collection of personal data

The Controller processes personal data of users for the following purposes and, at the same time, defines the legal basis for the processing of these data and determines whether the user’s explicit consent is necessary or not:


  1. Fulfilment of contractual obligation (the user’s order of a product or service), contractual basis, explicit consent is NOT necessary.
  2. Sending of information and notifications arising from contractual obligation (subscription to online news without marketing content), contractual basis and legitimate interest, explicit consent is NOT necessary.

Where explicit consent is required, the controller provides appropriate notifications to the user and a confirmation box for the explicit consent.

Right to withdraw explicit consent

The user has the right to withdraw their consent for the processing of personal data at any time, if the processing is based on consent. The withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing that was carried out before the withdrawal. The withdrawal of consent will stop the further processing of personal data for the purpose for which consent was given.

The user can withdraw:
1. general consent for processing, or
2. consent for processing for direct marketing purposes.

The general consent can be withdrawn with a simple request, e.g., via email, contact form, phone, or any other clearly provided channel offered by the controller. The controller must process the withdrawal immediately or at the latest within one month of receiving the request.

Consent for processing for direct marketing purposes can be withdrawn by the user at any time by requesting that their data no longer be used for direct marketing (regardless of the legal basis). The controller must ensure that each form of direct marketing (e.g., email, SMS, calls) provides the user with an easy and free way to exercise the right to withdraw consent. Each marketing communication must clearly include an option to opt-out, such as an "Unsubscribe" link or other suitable option that allows the user to quickly and easily opt-out.

The controller enables the withdrawal of consent for direct marketing without cost to the user and in the same easy way as the consent was given. The controller must retain proof of the withdrawal and ensure that the data is no longer used for unauthorized purposes.
