Personal Data: Any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. An identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, particularly by reference to an identifier such as a name, identification number, location data, online identifier, or one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural, or social identity of that person.
Special Categories of Data: Personal data that belong to special categories, such as those relating to racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, or trade union membership, as well as genetic data, biometric data for the purpose of uniquely identifying a person, health data, and data concerning a person’s sex life or sexual orientation.
Data Processing: Any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, 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.
Data Controller: The natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or any other body which, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data.

5. Lawful Data Processing by the Data Controller:
The personal data processing by the Data Controller occurs only in the following cases:
The Data Controller reviews the lawfulness of data processing at every stage of its activities and processes only the data that is necessary and for which a valid legal basis can be demonstrated. If a legal basis for processing ceases to exist, the processing can only continue if the Data Controller can provide a valid alternative legal basis.
The means of proving the legal basis is generally in writing; in cases where the legal basis arises from implied actions, it should be ensured that such actions can be clearly demonstrated afterward. In case of doubt, reasonable and cost-effective measures should be taken to confirm the data processing through written consent.
For data processing based on consent, the data subject provides written consent for the processing of their personal data. The consent does not require a specific format but must be verifiable afterward, either in paper or electronic form.
Data processing based on legal obligations occurs independently of the data subject’s consent, as the processing is mandated by law. Regardless of the compulsory nature of the processing, the Data Controller must inform the data subject before starting the processing that it is mandatory and cannot be avoided. The data subject must also be informed, clearly and in detail, of all significant facts regarding the processing of their data before it begins.
According to the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation), personal data may also be processed if the data processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, or if the processing is necessary to take steps requested by the data subject before entering into a contract. The Data Controller may process personal data for the purpose of entering into, fulfilling, or terminating a contract.
6. Personal Data Processing by the Data Controller:
The Data Controller is engaged in the sale of custom-designed clothing. During this activity, it processes personal data of natural persons. The following data processing activities are carried out:
A. The Data Controller accepts orders through the website www.esperamoments.com. Customers can be individuals or legal entities. The customer may choose to make a purchase either with or without registration. During registration, the data subject is required to provide their name, address, email address, phone number, username, and password. Registered customers, after logging in (by entering their email address/username and password), can view their previous orders, the status of ongoing orders, and make new orders more easily as they do not need to re-enter their personal data. The purpose of processing personal data is to create a customer account and record personal data. The legal basis for processing personal data is the performance of a contract (Article 6(1)(b) of the General Data Protection Regulation). In the case of legal entities, the personal data of the contact person is processed, based on their consent (Article 6(1)(a) of the General Data Protection Regulation). The personal data provided during registration will be deleted by the Data Controller immediately after the customer deletes their account, but no later than 30 days after deletion. If the customer does not delete the account, the personal data will be kept by the Data Controller for up to 1 year from the last purchase. If no order is placed after the account is created, the personal data will be deleted by the Data Controller 1 year after registration.
In the case of an order, the Data Controller processes the customer’s name, address, email address, and phone number. The purpose of this data processing is to fulfill the obligations under the contract and maintain communication. The legal basis for processing personal data is the performance of a contractual obligation (Article 6(1)(b) of the General Data Protection Regulation). In the case of a legal entity, the contact person’s personal data is processed with the consent of the data subject (Article 6(1)(a) of the General Data Protection Regulation).
The Data Controller issues invoices for the products sold, which include the customer’s name, address, and possibly the tax identification number. The issuance of invoices is a legal obligation of the Data Controller. The legal basis for processing the personal data on the invoice is compliance with a legal obligation (Article 6(1)(c) of the General Data Protection Regulation). The personal data on the invoice is stored by the Data Controller for 8 years in accordance with the retention requirements set out in Section 169 of Act C of 2000 on Accounting.
B. In the course of its work, the Data Controller also enters into contractual relationships with subcontractors, suppliers, and service providers, which also provides a basis for processing personal data. In this case, the legal basis for processing personal data (in the case of natural persons or sole proprietors) is the performance of contractual obligations (Article 6(1)(b) of the General Data Protection Regulation), and for the contact person of a legal entity, it is based on prior informed consent (Article 6(1)(a) of the General Data Protection Regulation).
C. In performing its duties, the Data Controller processes the email addresses and phone numbers of its customers, clients, and partners, for the purpose of fulfilling its contractual obligations (Article 6(1)(b) of the General Data Protection Regulation), or based on their individual consent (Article 6(1)(a) of the General Data Protection Regulation).
D. Occasionally, the Data Controller takes photographs or video recordings of customers, clients, partners, and other data subjects. If a recognizable individual appears in the recording, the recording will only be made and used with the data subject’s (or in the case of minors, the legal guardian’s) written, informed, voluntary consent. This applies to usage on the Data Controller’s website, social media, or other public appearances.
If the recording is not made by the Data Controller but is submitted by the customer or another data subject, the Data Controller will still request written, informed consent from the data subject (or the legal guardian). The legal basis for processing in these cases is the data subject’s consent (Article 6(1)(a) of the General Data Protection Regulation). If the data subject withdraws their consent and requests the discontinuation or deletion of the recording, the Data Controller will comply with this request promptly, but no later than 30 days after the withdrawal of consent.
E. The Data Controller also presents its products in photos, which occasionally feature models. The purpose of these photos is to showcase and promote the products. The legal basis for the processing of personal data in this context is the fulfillment of the obligations under the contract with the model (Article 6(1)(b) of the General Data Protection Regulation).
F. The Data Controller operates the website www.esperamoments.com, where it presents its activities and products. The website uses cookies, which also collect personal data from visitors. The legal basis for processing this data is the data subject’s consent (Article 6(1)(a) of the General Data Protection Regulation).
G. The Data Controller provides a form for the exercise of the right of withdrawal (returning a product) on the website. The form requires the customer to provide their name, email address, phone number, order number, and IBAN bank account number for the refund. The purpose of processing this personal data is to contact the data subject and handle the withdrawal request. The legal basis for processing the personal data provided in this context is compliance with a legal obligation (Article 6(1)(c) of the General Data Protection Regulation). The Data Controller’s legal obligation is to provide the right of withdrawal to customers. The applicable regulation is Government Decree 45/2014 (II. 26.), and personal data will be retained by the Data Controller for 3 years as required by law.
H. The Data Controller also operates social media accounts, where personal data is processed. The legal basis for processing is the data subject’s consent (Article 6(1)(a) of the General Data Protection Regulation).
I. During complaint handling, the purpose of data processing is to enable the reporting of the complaint, identify the data subject and their complaint, and record legally required data, as well as communicate regarding the investigation and resolution of the complaint. Processing personal data in connection with complaints is mandatory under the Hungarian Consumer Protection Act (1997. CLV). The legal basis for processing personal data is compliance with a legal obligation (Article 6(1)(c) of the General Data Protection Regulation).
The Data Controller keeps a record of these data processing activities. The record includes the deadlines for the deletion of personal data. The record is an annex to this Privacy Policy.
7. Data Processors Associated with the Data Controller:
If the data processing is carried out on behalf of the data controller by another party, the data controller may only engage data processors who provide adequate guarantees of compliance with the requirements of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), or who implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect the rights of data subjects.
The data controller hereby declares that, during its operations, it only works with data processors who provide sufficient guarantees of compliance with the GDPR and implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect the rights of data subjects. Relevant declarations from the data processors are available upon request.

The data controller accepts orders via the website www.esperamoments.com. Customers can be both individuals and legal entities. On the webshop, the customer can choose whether to register or purchase without registration. During registration, the data controller requests the customer’s name, address, email address, phone number, username, and password. Registered customers, after logging in (by providing email/username and password), can view their past orders, the status of ongoing orders, and their current situation, and it becomes easier to place a new order as they do not need to provide their details again. The purpose of processing personal data is to create a customer account and record personal data. The legal basis for processing personal data is the creation of the contract (Article 6(1)(b) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)). In the case of a legal entity, the personal data of the contact person are processed, based on the consent of the data subject (Article 6(1)(a) of GDPR). The personal data collected during registration will be deleted by the data controller immediately, but no later than 30 days after the customer account is terminated by the customer. If the customer account is not terminated by the customer, the personal data provided during registration will be kept by the data controller for a maximum of 1 year from the last purchase. If no order is placed after the creation of the customer account, the data controller will delete the personal data provided during registration 1 year after the registration date.

In the case of a legal entity, the personal data of the contact person are processed based on the consent of the data subject (Article 6(1)(a) of GDPR).
The data controller issues an invoice for the products sold, containing the customer’s name, address, and possibly their tax number. Issuing the invoice is a legal obligation of the data controller. The legal basis for processing personal data on the invoice is the fulfillment of a legal obligation (Article 6(1)(c) of GDPR).

Supplier Contracts:
The data controller also processes supplier contact information (name, email address, phone number) and works with service providers and subcontractors. In these cases, personal data of the contact person or individual entrepreneur are processed for the purpose of maintaining contact with the partners. The legal basis for processing personal data is the fulfillment of the contractual obligations (Article 6(1)(b) of GDPR), or the contact person’s consent (Article 6(1)(a) of GDPR).
The data controller has the contact persons of companies complete a consent form, informing them of their rights related to personal data and requesting their consent to process their data. In such cases, the legal basis for processing personal data is the written, informed consent of the data subject (Article 6(1)(a) of GDPR). If the contract with the partner is terminated and no statutory retention obligation applies to the data or documents, the phone numbers and email addresses will be deleted.

By consenting to the use of cookies on the website, the data subject declares that they are over the age of 16. Persons under the age of 16 cannot consent to the data collection through cookies on the website, as, according to Article 8(1) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the consent to data processing must be given by the legal representative of the child in order for it to be valid. The data controller is not able to verify the age and eligibility of the person giving consent, so the data subject guarantees that the information provided is accurate.
The data controller does not record any special categories of personal data that have been disclosed to or come to the attention of the data controller. If such data enters any system of the data controller without its knowledge, it will be immediately deleted upon detection.
11. Handling of Email Addresses and Phone Numbers:
During its activities, the data controller comes into possession of the email addresses and phone numbers of its customers, clients, and partners. Personal data obtained in this manner is processed primarily to fulfill the data controller’s contractual obligations (Article 6(1)(b) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)). If the contract with the partner is terminated, and no legal retention obligation applies to the data or documents, the phone numbers and email addresses will be deleted. In some cases, the data controller may still have a legitimate interest in retaining the data, in which case the data subject’s prior consent is requested to retain their personal data (Article 6(1)(a) of GDPR).
12. Personal Data Processing Related to Photographic and Video Recordings Made by the Data Controller:
The data controller occasionally takes photographs or video recordings of its customers, clients, partners, and other data subjects.

In some cases, the recording is not made by the data controller but by the customer or another data subject, who then sends the recording to the data controller. In these cases, the data controller will still request the written, informed consent of the data subject (or their legal representative) for the use of the recording. The legal basis for this data processing is the consent of the data subject (Article 6(1)(a) of GDPR). If the data subject withdraws their consent and requests the cessation of the use of the recording or its deletion, the data controller will comply with this request promptly, but no later than 30 days after the withdrawal of consent.
The data controller’s products are presented in photographs, occasionally featuring models. The purpose of creating and using these photos is to showcase and promote the products. The legal basis for processing personal data during the creation and use of these photos is the fulfillment of contractual obligations with the model (Article 6(1)(b) of GDPR).

The purpose of the cookies:
To provide personalized services, a small data package, known as a cookie, is placed on the user’s computer and later retrieved on subsequent visits.

Strictly Necessary, Session Cookies:
These cookies are used to ensure that visitors can fully and seamlessly browse the website, use its features, and access the services provided.

They are automatically deleted from the computer or other devices used for browsing once the browser is closed.
Data Subject’s Choice Regarding Cookies:
Web Browser Cookies:
In the browser settings, the data subject can accept or reject new cookies and delete existing cookies.

Third-Party Cookies (Analytics, Statistics):
Use of Google Analytics (Analytics, Statistics):
The data controller’s website also uses Google Analytics third-party cookies. By using the Google Analytics web analytics and statistical service, the data controller collects information about how visitors use the website. The data is used for improving the website and user experience. These cookies remain on the visitor’s computer or other device until they expire, or until the visitor deletes them.
If websites or applications use Google Analytics alongside other Google advertising products, such as Google Ads, additional advertising identifiers may also be collected. Users can disable this service in the Ad Settings, or adjust their cookie preferences.
Google Analytics collects the users’ IP addresses to ensure service security and to provide website owners with insights into the geographical origin (country, state, or city) of their visitors (referred to as “IP-based geolocation”). Google Analytics offers the option to mask the collected IP addresses, though website owners may still see the user’s IP address if they do not use Google Analytics.

Consent for Cookie Use:
By accepting the use of cookies on the data controller’s website, the data subject declares that they are over the age of 16. A person under 16 cannot provide consent to the use of cookies on the website, as, according to Article 8(1) of the GDPR, consent to data processing requires the approval of a legal representative.

18. Data Protection Incident:
A data protection incident is defined as a security breach that leads to the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure, or unauthorized access to personal data that has been transmitted, stored, or otherwise processed.
In the case of a data protection incident, the security breach must be of a serious nature, meaning the breach must be of a degree that results in:
An incident is considered to have occurred if any of the above happens, but this does not exclude the possibility that multiple points may occur simultaneously. This category includes not only intentional, malicious actions but also breaches caused by negligence. Therefore, the incident occurs if the breach is caused by an accidental or unlawful act.
Examples of data protection incidents include:
Without appropriate and timely measures, a data protection incident may cause physical, financial, or non-material damage to individuals, including the loss of control over their personal data, restriction of their rights, discrimination, identity theft or misuse, financial loss, unauthorized de-anonymization, harm to reputation, damage to the confidentiality of personal data protected by professional confidentiality obligations, and other significant economic or social disadvantages affecting the individuals involved.
In the event of a data protection incident (unless the incident is unlikely to result in a risk to the rights and freedoms of individuals), the data controller must immediately notify the National Authority for Data Protection and Freedom of Information. Once the incident comes to the data controller’s attention, it must be reported without undue delay, and no later than 72 hours after becoming aware of the data protection incident. If the report cannot be made within 72 hours, the reason for the delay must be specified, and the required information must be provided in phases, without further undue delay.
The National Authority for Data Protection and Freedom of Information operates a system on its website specifically for reporting data protection incidents, which allows submissions to be made electronically.
The data controller keeps a record of data protection incidents, detailing the facts surrounding the incident, its effects, and the measures taken to address it. The data controller must maintain records of incidents, including their causes, events, and the scope of personal data affected. Additionally, the register must include the effects and consequences of the incidents, the corrective actions taken, and the controller’s conclusions (e.g., why the incident was not reportable, or if the report was delayed, the reason for the delay).
An incident need not be reported to the supervisory authority if it is unlikely to result in a risk to the rights and freedoms of individuals.
If the data protection incident is likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of the data controller’s customers, clients, or partners, the affected party must be informed without delay. The information provided to the affected party must clearly and understandably describe the nature of the data protection incident and provide the most important details and actions taken.
The data subject does not need to be informed in the following cases:
In the event of a violation of their rights, the data subject has the right to appeal to the courts against the data controller. The court will handle the case on an expedited basis.
A complaint can be filed with the National Authority for Data Protection and Freedom of Information:
