Definition of personal data

As defined by applicable law, personal data means information relating to an identified or identifiable individual, such as name, email address and telephone number.

Types and use of personal data collected

Coca-Cola HBC collects personal data directly from users or from authorised third parties when users interact with us as business partners, including as customers or prospective customers, consumers or job applicants. We also collect information about users through the site, although users may, in any case, visit our website without identifying themselves or disclosing personal information to us. For technical reasons, our servers collect source IP addresses, enabling users to connect to our platforms and use our services, without collecting visitors’ email addresses. In addition, for certain areas of our website, we need to collect users’ personal data for specific purposes, such as providing information requested by them or enabling users to register on the site. Data is collected and processed through the completion of online forms and whenever users contact our consumer service or send us emails containing their details. Users are not required to provide us with any additional information, where requested, that is not necessary or reasonably required to provide the services they have requested.

With regard to personal data required for the performance of a contract with us, if users do not provide us with their personal data, we may not be able to provide the requested services as described above. Conversely, for all data processing activities for which users have provided their consent, they have the right to withhold or withdraw such consent at any time without any adverse consequences for contracts entered into with us and/or services provided to them.

When we process users’ personal data for the purposes of pursuing our legitimate interests pursuant to Article 6(f) of the GDPR, our legitimate interests are appropriately balanced against users’ interests, as the processing is carried out only to the extent strictly necessary to pursue the purposes listed above. Such processing activities are not mandatory and users may object to such processing at any time in accordance with the procedures set out in this Privacy Notice. In such cases, the data will no longer be processed for the purposes listed above, unless Coca-Cola HBC demonstrates compelling legitimate grounds that override the interests of the user or where processing is required for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims pursuant to Article 21 of the GDPR.

Coca-Cola HBC reserves the right, in any event, to provide data subjects with additional privacy notices in exceptional cases where further and specific processing activities are carried out on personal data.

Disclosure and recipients of personal data

The personal data provided by users is stored on servers located in Crawley, United Kingdom, operated by Rackspace, which has a secondary establishment in Ireland, and may be processed by or transferred to our staff working outside the United Kingdom and to third parties, business partners, government bodies and law enforcement agencies, legal successors to our company and suppliers to whom we entrust processing on our behalf, some of whom are established outside the European Economic Area and operate on behalf of the company for the purposes and on the grounds set out in this Notice.

Parties established outside the EU to whom users’ personal data is transferred process the data, fulfil and deliver orders and provide support services on our behalf. We may also provide third parties with general information regarding the use of our site, but such information will not include data that enables users to be identified. We reserve the right to disclose users’ personal data where required by law, or where we believe disclosure is necessary to protect our rights and/or comply with obligations relating to legal proceedings, a court order, a request from a regulatory body or any legal action brought against us.

Except where required by law, we will not share, sell or distribute personal data provided by users without their consent.

Finally, if the company enters into a joint venture or merges with another company, or if the company is sold, users’ data may be disclosed to our new business partners or owners.

Transfer of personal data outside the EU

As the company operates in many countries, users’ personal data may be processed and/or stored by staff members or suppliers in countries outside the EU whose data protection laws may be less stringent than those in force in the EU, including, in particular, Armenia, Belarus, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Moldova, Montenegro, Nigeria, Russia, Serbia, Switzerland and Ukraine. In all cases, we endeavour to ensure that users receive the same level of protection for their personal data as they would within the EU, including by ensuring that personal data is stored securely and processed in accordance with our instructions and for the specified purposes.

Certain countries outside the EU have been approved by the European Commission as providing safeguards that are essentially equivalent to those provided by EU data protection laws, and therefore no additional safeguards are required for the transfer of personal data to these jurisdictions (for the complete list, users may visit http://ec.europa.eu/justice/data-protection/international-transfers/adequacy/index_en.htm). In the case of third parties established in countries not approved by the European Commission (such as Russia), we have entered into agreements incorporating the Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission, which impose equivalent data protection obligations on the recipient, unless applicable data protection law allows us to carry out the transfer without such formalities.

If users wish to learn more about the specific safeguards applied to the transfer of their personal data, they may contact us using the details provided in the "Contact Us" section.

How we protect users’ personal data

Users under the age of 16

Users under the age of 16 must obtain the consent of a parent or guardian before providing us with their personal data. Users who have not obtained such consent may not provide us with their personal data.

Other websites

Our website contains links to other websites that are not under our control and are not subject to this Privacy Notice. If users access other websites using the links provided, the operators of those websites may collect users’ information, which will be used in accordance with their own Privacy Notices, which may differ from ours. We accept no responsibility for the privacy notices of other operators or for the manner in which they process users’ personal data. Before providing personal data to third-party websites, we encourage users to read the privacy and cookie notices and the terms and conditions of the websites linked to, referred to or accessed.

Security of personal data collected and retention periods

We implement strict technical and organisational security measures to protect users’ data against unauthorised and unlawful processing, accidental loss, destruction and damage, both online and offline. We will retain users’ data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected and, thereafter, for the period required by law.

In particular, we retain personal data in identifiable form only for as long as necessary to pursue the processing purposes for which the personal data was collected. We do not retain personal data for longer than necessary to fulfil legitimately identified business purposes or for as long as required by applicable law. We establish data retention periods in accordance with relevant laws and regulations within our records of processing activities and must provide justification where personal data is retained for periods longer than the maximum period permitted under legal or corporate requirements, where applicable.

Certain data must be retained to protect the company’s interests, for evidentiary purposes and, more generally, to comply with good business practices. Reasons for retaining data may include:

  • Litigation
  • Incident investigations
  • Security incident investigations
  • Regulatory requirements
  • Protection of intellectual property

Internet transfers and limitation of liability

Although the company takes reasonable measures to protect against viruses and other harmful components, the nature of the internet makes it impossible to guarantee that users’ browsing will be uninterrupted or error-free, or that a website, its servers or emails sent by us will be free from viruses or other harmful components.

How to contact us and data subject rights, including rights to access and update personal data

Access, updating and deletion of data

Users have the right to access the personal data we hold about them and may also ask us to make any necessary changes to ensure that their personal data is accurate and up to date or to delete personal data held by us. Users also have the right to request restriction of processing or to object to the processing of personal data held by us. Users may ask us to provide personal data held by us to other service providers of their choice. In such cases, users may contact us using the details provided in the Contact Us section below.

Withdrawal of consent

Where we have requested users’ consent to process their personal data, such consent may be withdrawn at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent carried out before its withdrawal. In such cases, users may contact us using the details provided in the Contact Us section below.

Complaints

Users may lodge a complaint with the national data protection authority. In particular, the Italian national authority is the Garante per la Protezione dei Dati Personali (Italian Data Protection Authority), whose contact details are available at www.garanteprivacy.it.
