Principles
When personal data is processed by PromoCat, PromoCat works according to various principles. Data processing may be necessary for performance of an agreement (to supply services or products) entered into by us, or may be necessary for performance of a statutory obligation. In some cases we will request your explicit permission, for example for the use of certain cookies or, if you are not our customer, for the receipt of commercial communication.
