3K AD Online Privacy Policy
Effective May 01, 2018
This Online Privacy Notice (“Privacy Policy”) explains how we handle the
Personal Data provided to us on websites, mobile sites, mobile applications,
and other digital services and products controlled by 3K AD that link to this
Privacy Policy (collectively, “3K AD Sites”). 3K AD is the data controller for
the processing of Personal Data under applicable law. This Privacy Notice does
not apply to 3K AD Sites that do not link to this Privacy Policy or to
third-party Web sites to which 3K AD Sites may link.
Types of Information We Collect Online
The types of Personal Data that we may collect while you use the 3K AD
Sites are described in this section and include both information that you
provide to us and information that we collect automatically when you use the 3K
AD Sites.
For purposes of this Privacy Notice, “Personal
Data” means information that identifies you or that could reasonably
be used to identify you. Examples of Personal Data include name, address,
telephone number, and email address.
Information You Provide
You do not have to register for a service or program to receive much of
the information available through 3K AD Sites. However, some of our content is
available only to registered or identified users and will require you to set up
a profile or provide specific information about yourself in order to provide
you the service.
Personal Data You Provide When Visiting 3K AD Sites
3K AD collects Personal Data that you provide on 3K AD Sites, for
example, when purchasing a product, to receive marketing products and

You may contact 3K AD to ask questions, discuss your concerns, or report
issues regarding our products. If you communicate with or request information
from 3K AD, you may be prompted to provide your contact information as well as
any Personal Data that is relevant to your request.
Information That May Be Collected Automatically
When you use the 3K AD Sites, we also may collect certain usage and
device information automatically as described below.
IP Address
We may record the Internet Protocol (“IP”) address of your computer or
other electronic device when you visit the 3K AD Sites. An IP address
identifies the electronic device you use to access the Sites, which allows us
to maintain communication with your computer as you move about 3K AD Sites and
to customize content.
Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies
We also collect information about your use of 3K AD Sites through
tracking technologies such as cookies and web beacons. A “cookie” is a unique
numeric code that is transferred to your computer to track your interests and
preferences and to recognize you as a return visitor. A “Web beacon” is a
transparent graphic image placed on a Web site, e-mail or advertisement that
enables the monitoring of things such as user activity and site traffic. These
technologies help remember your preferences and allow us to bring you the
content and features that are likely to be of greatest interest to you on the
basis of “clickstream” data that shows your previous activities on 3K AD Sites.
We utilize Google Display Advertising (such as Retargeting with Google
Analytics, Google Display Network Impression Reporting, DoubleClick Campaign
Manager integration, and Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting)
to (1) show you our ads on other websites based on your prior visits to 3K AD
Sites, and (2) better understand our ad impressions and use of ad services. In
connection with the Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting
service, we may use data from Google's interest-based advertising or
third-party audience data (such as age, gender and interests) with Google
Analytics to understand and improve our marketing campaigns and Site content.
Some of our online advertising takes place through Google Display
Advertising. As part of this program, we use Google Analytics features such as
Retargeting. In connection with that feature and others offered by ad networks,
we and the operators of ad networks, including Google, may use third-party
cookies (such as the DoubleClick cookie) – and in some cases first-party
cookies (such as the Google Analytics cookie) – to inform, optimize and serve
ads across the Internet, based on a user's past visits to 3K AD Sites. We also
may show you ads from some of our affiliated companies when you visit 3K AD
Sites.
You can opt out of Google Ads by visiting http://www.google.com/ads/preferences.
If you do not want your data used by Google Analytics, you can install the
Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on at the Google Analytics opt-out
page.
This 3K AD Site is not designed to respond to "do not track"
signals received from browsers.
To learn more about cookies and other tracking
technologies, including how to disable them, please visit http://www.allaboutcookies.org/.
Please note that some cookies are essential to the functioning of our Sites and
deleting or disabling them will reduce the site’s functionality.
Mobile Tracking
Some 3K AD Sites are available either as mobile applications or mobile
sites that you can use on your mobile device. If you use a mobile device to

information in addition to the other information described above: device or
advertising ID, device type, hardware type, media access control (“MAC”) address,
international mobile equipment identity (“IMEI”), the version of your mobile
operating system, the platform used to access or download the 3K AD Site (e.g.,
Apple, Google, Amazon, Windows), location information and usage information
about your device and your use of the 3K AD Sites.
Information Collected from Other Sources
We may combine information about you from a visit to one 3K AD Site with
information about you from visits to other 3K AD Sites. We may also combine
information about you that is collected through the 3K AD Sites with
information that we have collected offline, as well as with information
provided to us by third parties.
How We Use Your Information
We use your Personal Data to provide you the product and services you
request, communicate with you, improve your experience on the 3K AD Sites,
generally improve our products and services and for other internal business
purposes. These uses may also include the 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 of Personal Data. The Personal
Data we collect about you may be stored for five years following the most
recent interaction we have had with you, after which point it will be archived
only for so long as reasonably necessary for the purposes set out above, in
accordance with applicable laws.

about special promotions. In such cases, we will use your contact and other
Personal Data to send you marketing information.
Customized User Experiences
The Personal Data that you provide may be used to create customized
offers, information, or services tailored to your interests and preferences.
Also, we may use your IP address and the data that we obtain automatically

interest to you.
Business and Product Improvement
In order to discover new facts that could help 3K AD better understand
customer needs and help improve, develop, and evaluate product, services,
materials, and programs. 3K AD analyzes the information that you have provided.
For these purposes 3K AD does not use information that can directly identify
you.
Site Analytics and Improvement
We may use the information that you provide and the information we
collect automatically about your use of the 3K AD Sites to monitor user traffic
patterns and preferences for site improvement, analytics and optimization.
Legal Basis for Processing
Under European data protection laws, 3K AD must have a legal basis to
process your Personal Data. The legal basis that applies in an instance will
depend on for which of the specific purposes described above 3K AD is
processing your Personal Data:
·
In certain cases, 3K AD may ask for your consent to
collect and process your Personal Data. Should you choose to provide your
consent, you may later withdraw your consent by contacting us as described in
the “Your Privacy Choices” section. Please note that the withdrawal of consent
will not affect processing which has already occurred.
·
In other instances, the processing of your Personal
Data may be necessary in order to comply with an applicable law or regulation
or for the performance of a contract to which you are subject. You may not be
able to opt-out of this processing, or your choice to opt-out may impact our
ability to perform a contractual obligation otherwise owed to you.
·
In still other instances, 3K AD may process your
Personal Data based on 3K AD’s legitimate interests in communicating with you
about our products and services, and about scientific research and educational
opportunities. You have the right to opt-out of all such processing of your
Personal Data. You may do so by contacting us as described in the “Your Privacy
Choices” section.
Information We Share
We only share your Personal Data with third parties as described below.
We do not sell or rent Personal Data to third parties for their own marketing
purposes.
Third-Party Advertising and Online Behavioral
Advertising
You may be provided with online advertisements of 3K AD products and
services on third-party websites and mobile services that are tailored to you,
for example, on the basis of information that you provide to 3K AD or a
third-party website you are visiting, or of your browsing activity, purchases,
or interests. These types of tailored online advertisements may come through
several sources, such as the following:
·
We may share with our advertising service providers
your non-identifying information that we have obtained from cookies and other
tracking technologies on our 3K AD Sites.
·
Some 3K AD Sites participate in online behavioral
advertising (this is also sometimes called re-target advertising or interest-based
advertising). You can identify these sites by the “Advertising Choices” link in
the footer. Our advertising network partners may place and use cookies on 3K AD
Web sites and on other third-party Web sites to collect information about your
activities in order to provide you with online advertisements that are based on
your interests. When a 3K AD online behavioral advertisement is delivered to
you, you will see an “Ad Choices” icon. Clicking on the icon or link will take
you to a Web site where you can manage or opt out of the use of data about your
browsing history that is used for the delivery of online behavioral
advertisements. If you opt out, you may still see advertisements online,
including advertisements from 3K AD that are based on other information (e.g.,
based on the content of the page being viewed rather than your prior
clickstream activity). In some cases, data may still be collected about your
browsing activity by these third-party advertisers, but they will not use this
data to deliver advertisements that are based on your past online browsing
behavior. You can also opt out now by clicking here.
·
Some Web browsers may transmit “do-not-track”
signals to Web sites with which the browser communicates. As of the Effective
Date of this Privacy Notice, an industry standard has not yet been established
on how to respond to these signals. Therefore, 3K AD does not currently respond
to these signals. As discussed above, you can opt-out from advertisers that use
your browsing history to deliver online behavioral advertisements by
visiting adchoices.
Affiliates, Vendors and Suppliers
We have relationships with suppliers and affiliated companies, who help
us operate our business and for whom it may be necessary to have access to your
Personal Data in the course of providing services to 3K AD. We will not
authorize these parties to use your Personal Data for any purpose that is not
related to 3K AD and its related affiliates business operation, and we do not
share Personal Data from countries that require consent, unless consent has
been obtain in advance to sharing with related affiliates. We require them to
handle your Personal Data collected in accordance with this Privacy Notice.
Co-branded Sites
We may partner with other companies to provide you with content or
services on a joint or “co-branded” basis. At a co branded site, you will see
both the 3K AD logo and the logo of the co-branding partner displayed on your
screen. You should read the individual privacy policies of our co-branding
partners, as they may differ in some respects from ours. Reading these policies
will help you to make an informed decision about whether to provide your
information to a given site.
Product Reports
If you contact 3K AD regarding your experience in using one of our
products, we may use the information that you provide in submitting reports to
the designated government regulatory authority, as required of us by law.
Legal Rights and Obligations
In certain limited circumstances, 3K AD may need to disclose your
Personal Data in order to comply with a legal obligation or demand, such as to
comply with reporting obligations to our governing regulatory authorities
regarding the safety of our products, or in connection with the sale or
transfer of one of our product lines or divisions, which includes the services
provided through one or more of the 3K AD Sites. In such instances, we will
take measures to protect your Personal Data to the extent possible. We also
reserve the right to use Personal Data to investigate and prosecute users who violate
our rules or who engage in behavior that is illegal or harmful to others or to
others’ property.
Change in Organization
In the event 3K AD decides to reorganize or divest our business through
sale, merger, or acquisition, 3K AD may share Personal Data about you with
actual or prospective purchasers. We will require any actual or prospective
purchasers to treat this Personal Data in a manner consistent with this notice.
Children Privacy
3K AD does not knowingly collect or use any Personal Data directly from
children on 3K AD Sites (3K AD defines as “children” as minors younger than
18). We do not knowingly allow children to order our products, to communicate
with us, or to use any of our online services. If you are a parent and become
aware that your child has provided us with information, please contact us using
one of the methods specified below, and we will work with you to address this
issue.
Your Privacy
Choices
You have the right to see and get a copy of Personal Data about you that
we maintain as well as to ask us to make corrections to inaccurate or
incomplete Personal Data about you. You have the right to receive data you have
provided to us in a machine-readable format and to transmit that data to
another controller. You may also request the erasure of your Personal Data or
the restriction of its processing, or object to the processing of Personal Data
about you. To seek access to Personal Data about you, to file a concern, complaint,
or request for correction, or to opt-out of particular programs, please contact
our Privacy Office by clicking on the “Contact Us” link on the 3K AD Site you
are using, by using the 3K AD contact information on the 3K AD mobile
application you are using, or by emailing us at office@3k-solar.bg.
The Bulgarian Data Protection Authority is responsible for making sure
that privacy law is followed in Bulgaria. For more information about your
privacy rights, or if you are not able to resolve a problem directly with us
and wish to make a compliant, contact: Data Privacy Authority.
In all communications to 3K AD, please include your email address, the
Web site address, mobile application, and/or the specific 3K AD product to
which you provided Personal Data (e.g., 3K AD.com), and a detailed explanation
of your request. If you would like to delete, amend, or correct your Personal
Data and are contacting us by email, please put “Deletion Request” or
“Amendment/Correction Request” in the subject line of the email. We will
respond to all reasonable requests in a timely manner and may need to further
confirm your identity in order to process certain requests.
Data Security
3K AD maintains reasonable technical, administrative and physical
controls to secure any Personal Data collected through the 3K AD Sites.
However, there is always some risk that an unauthorized third party could
intercept an Internet transmission, or that someone will find a way to thwart
our security systems. We urge you to exercise caution when transmitting
Personal Data over the Internet, especially your financial-related information.
3K AD cannot guarantee that unauthorized third parties will not gain access to
your Personal Data; therefore, when submitting Personal Data to 3K AD Sites,
you must weigh both the benefits and the risks.
Third Party Sites and Social Media Plug-ins
This Privacy Notice does not apply to 3K AD Sites that do not link to
this Privacy Notice, or to third-party Web sites to which 3K AD Sites may link.
3K AD Sites may use social media plug-ins (e.g., the Facebook “Like” button, “Share
to Twitter” button) to enable you to easily share information with others. When
you visit 3K AD Sites, the operator of the social plug-in can place a cookie on
your computer or other electronic device that enables that operator to
recognize individuals who have previously visited our Site. If you are logged
into the social media Web site (e.g., Facebook, Twitter) while browsing on our 3K
AD Site, the social media plug-in allows that social media Web site to receive
information that you have visited our 3K AD Site. The social media plug-in also
allows the social media Web site to share information about your activities on
our 3K AD Site with other users of their social media Web site. These sharing
settings are managed by the social media Web site and governed by its privacy
policy.
Accessing Our Sites Globally
This site is owned and operated by 3K AD in the Bulgaria, but the
information you provide will be accessible to our affiliates, vendors, and
suppliers in other countries in accordance with this policy. Furthermore, if
you are visiting this site from a country other than the Bulgaria, your
communication with us will necessarily result in the transfer of information
across international borders. The level of legal protection for Personal Data
is not the same in all countries; however, we will take the security measures
described in this Privacy Notice in an effort to keep your information secure.
By using this site, you understand that your Personal Data will be stored and
processed in the Bulgaria and in any country to which we may transfer your
information in the course of our business operations.
Changes to Our Privacy Policy
We will only use Personal Data in the manner described in this Privacy
Policy in effect when the information was collected from you or as authorized
by you. However, and subject to any applicable consent requirements, we reserve
the right to change the terms of this Privacy Policy at any time. Any changes
to this Privacy Policy will be reflected on this page with a new effective
date. 3K AD encourages you to review this Privacy Policy regularly for any
changes. Any Personal Data collected upon your continued use of 3K AD Sites
will be handled in accordance with the currently-posted Privacy Policy.
