What is GDPR?

GDPR is a data and privacy security legislation which was developed by the European Parliament and Council for the protection of data rights of EU citizens. The GDPR levies harsh fines against those who violate its privacy and security standards, with penalties reaching into the tens of millions of euros. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you visit our website tomkingskennel.com. Please read this privacy policy carefully. If you do not agree with the terms of this privacy policy, please do not access the site.

Principles relating to processing of personal data

Your data is:

  • processed lawfully, fairly, and in a transparent manner in relation to the data subject;
  • collected for specified, explicit and legitimate purposes and not further processed in a manner that is incompatible with those purposes; further processing for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes shall, in accordance with Article 89(1), not be considered to be incompatible with the initial purposes (‘purpose limitation’);
  • adequate, relevant and limited to what is necessary in relation to the purposes for which they are processed (‘data minimisation’);
  • accurate and, where necessary, kept up to date; every reasonable step must be taken to ensure that personal data that are inaccurate, having regard to the purposes for which they are processed, are erased or rectified without delay (‘accuracy’);
  • kept in a form which permits identification of data subjects for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which the personal data are processed; personal data may be stored for longer periods insofar as the personal data will be processed solely for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes in accordance with Article 89(1), subject to implementation of the appropriate technical and organisational measures (‘storage limitation’);
  • processed in a manner that ensures appropriate security of the personal data, including protection against unauthorised or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction or damage, using appropriate technical or organisational measures (‘integrity and confidentiality’).

What are cookies

For almost any modern website to work properly, it needs to collect certain basic information about its users. To do this, a site creates files known as cookies – small bits of data (information) stored as plain text files on a user’s computer through the website browser. Cookies enable the website to remember your actions and preferences (such as login, language, font size and other display preferences) over a period of time, so you don’t have to keep re-entering them whenever you come back to the site or browse from one page to another.

The most commonly used web browsers accept cookies by default, but browsers allow you to change your settings or even delete the cookies already stored on your computer. These settings will typically be found in the ‘options’ or ‘preferences’ menu of your browser.

TOMKINGS will inform you about the cookies requiring consent at the beginning of your first visit and will ask for your consent. Our company does not use or allow cookies that allow third parties to collect data without your consent. Acceptance of cookies is not mandatory, but is highly recommended for the proper functioning of our website.
