J12/2258/2005, e-mail: office@kadra.ro (the “Controller“, “we” or “Kadra“). As a personal data controller, through this Personal Data Protection Policy (the “Policy“) we inform you of the conditions under which we process your personal data when you visit our website or when you get in touch with us.
You can contact us at any time at:
Address: 15 Nikola Tesla Street, KADRA Building, Cluj-Napoca, Cluj County
E-mail: office@kadra.ro
This Policy has been drawn up in light of the requirements of the personal data processing legislation directly applicable in Romania, in particular Regulation (EU) 2016/679 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, and repealing Directive 95/46/EC (the “GDPR”), and Law no. 506/2004 on the processing of personal data and the protection of privacy in the electronic communications sector (“Law 506/2004″). Accordingly, the personal data we process is processed in accordance with the legal provisions mentioned above.
- Purpose of this Personal Data Processing Policy
Operating the Website and interacting with you requires the processing of personal data, and the protection of that data is a priority for us.
Through this Policy, we ensure the right of every data subject (the “Data Subject“, “you“, “your“) to be fully and clearly informed about the personal data we process (collect, use, store) when they visit or access the kadra.ro website (the “Website“), as well as about the purposes of the processing, the legal grounds and the period for which we process the data. Some data allows us to identify data subjects directly (e.g. first and last name), while other personal data is less obvious (e.g. the IP address of the device used to browse the Website). However, where such less obvious data, combined with other elements, leads to the identification of data subjects, it also constitutes personal data.
Where we indicate that the processing or provision of data is necessary, failure to provide that personal data will make it impossible for you to use the Website or for us to contact you. We will not be liable if you are unable to benefit from the Website’s features or the information requested because you refused to provide this personal data.
If the information in this document is unclear, or you believe information about the processing of your personal data is missing, please let us know using our contact details. We will try to clarify any issues so that, by the time you provide your personal data, you have all the information you need and understand the conditions under which Kadra processes it.
The provisions of this Policy take precedence over other provisions in documentation issued and communicated by Kadra (e.g. the General Terms and Conditions) regarding any matters related to the processing of personal data in connection with the Website.
In general, all information collected is used for the purpose for which you sent it to us, as stated at the time of collection or in this Policy. For details on the collection and processing of cookies and other similar technologies, such as tracking codes (“cookies”), please see our Cookie Policy, available here: https://kadra.ro/politica-privind-cookie-urile-ue/. It provides details including the purposes of processing and the third parties with whom we may share data. Through some cookies, Kadra may collect certain personal data for the purposes described in Section 4 of this Policy, including:
- we use your contact details to respond to requests you send us, either through the contact form or directly by e-mail or post;
- we use the e-mail address you provided to send you commercial information such as newsletters, promotions and offers, if you have given your consent;
- we use information collected through cookies, pixels or tracking codes to provide you with an optimised experience when using our website;
- we may use your data for statistical purposes, to assess customer satisfaction with our services. Your answers are strictly confidential and will be used exclusively to improve your browsing experience on the Website and our services.
If you choose not to provide personal information when requested, you may not be able to take part in certain activities and personalised features on our websites, and you may have limited access to our services and special offers. For example, if you choose not to share your e-mail address, you will not be able to receive our newsletter or contact us through the form on the website.
However, you do not need to provide any personal information simply to browse our websites and learn more about our products.

Data will also be sent to our consultants/specialists, subject to confidentiality and data security obligations.
- Who we share your personal data with
As a matter of principle, we do not transfer data to third parties.
Sometimes the transfer of data is necessary, but it will only take place to fulfil the purposes, or to ensure compliance with the legal obligations, explicitly detailed in the sections above.
(a) In certain circumstances, to fulfil the purposes mentioned above, we will share your data with our partners. In such cases, certain data is processed at our request by these partners, who act as our processors and with whom we have a contract to that effect. They are carefully selected, audited by us and contractually bound in accordance with Article 28 GDPR. When we share data with our partners, we require them to protect it through strict data security measures and to use your data only in accordance with our precise and clear instructions, specifying exactly which personal data they may process, the purposes of processing, and the manner of processing, storage and retention. Our partners are not authorised under any circumstances to use your data for their own purposes, or for any purposes or in any manner other than those specifically entrusted to them by us.
We choose our partners (those we collaborate with in various areas) and suppliers (those who perform certain functions/operations/activities on our behalf or for us) carefully and rigorously, and we share with them only the data strictly necessary for the services we entrust to them.
(b) We work with a number of partners whose products and/or services we sell. Sometimes we share your data with these partners: (i) to issue warranty/quality certificates, or (ii) to resolve complaints regarding products and/or services.
(c) We may use third-party service providers for certain activities necessary to fulfil the purposes mentioned above. These include, for example: companies that provide data storage services on external servers (or in the cloud), companies involved in preparing and/or delivering goods and/or services, and companies that support our marketing activities.
Given Kadra’s contractual obligations towards these partners and/or suppliers, and to protect ourselves from competition, we cannot disclose the names of all these partners and suppliers. We assure you, however, that we have chosen them carefully and rigorously, and we continuously ensure – through the specific obligations they assume contractually, through verification and audit mechanisms, and through clear and firm working instructions – that they meet our standards for protecting your personal data and implement appropriate IT security measures to protect it, including maintaining the highest degree of confidentiality.
(d) Public authorities/judicial bodies. We may transmit some of your personal data to the competent public authorities or institutions where this is required by the relevant legal provisions (e.g. fraud investigations, investigating and/or preventing money laundering, filing tax returns), or we may use the data to bring legal action or mount a defence in court to protect our rights.
(f) Mergers and acquisitions / business transfers. If we decide in the future to sell Kadra’s shareholdings or business (assets and liabilities, etc.), we will transmit your data to / provide access to it for potential buyers or successor companies, in order to carry out the analyses and audit necessary for the acquisition of the shareholdings/business (assets and liabilities, etc.) and to structure and implement the transaction. In this regard, we will ensure that any potential buyer has the security measures necessary to protect your data, and a data protection agreement will be signed for this purpose.
(h) When you exercise your rights regarding the personal data we process, you yourself are the recipient of that personal data (we share this data with you).
- How long we keep your personal data
Except for the periods specifically mentioned in this Policy, we will retain and keep your data only for as long as is actually necessary to fulfil the purposes set out in this Policy.
To show that we care about your data and your rights regarding it, we enable you to exercise the right to erasure of personal data in accordance with the erasure procedure described in the “Rights” section.
For purposes for which you have consented to the collection and use of personal data (in accordance with this Policy), we will process your data for that purpose until you withdraw your consent to processing for that purpose. However, we will retain the strictly necessary data if we are required to keep it in order to: (i) fulfil legal obligations, (ii) defend our rights in court, or (iii) report to the competent authorities.
Documents containing your personal data issued for/in the performance of obligations relating to a product purchase will be kept for as long as necessary for that purpose and in accordance with the legal provisions.
- How we keep your personal data
Security measures taken by Kadra
Kadra implements the technical and organisational measures necessary to collect, process and store data securely, including against unauthorised access and use. These measures include:
– Specific IT security means, e.g. firewalls that protect Kadra’s networks and IT infrastructure;
– Access to your data is strictly limited to those people within Kadra who need it to fulfil the purposes set out in this Policy, according to their responsibilities/duties;
– Appropriate administrative and organisational measures to ensure that people with access to the data maintain confidentiality, through training and individual assumption of responsibilities, including the signing of specific confidentiality contracts/clauses by both Kadra employees and Kadra’s partners/suppliers;
– Security of the premises where the servers storing your data are located, through specific physical security measures;
– Security of electronic and physical documentation relating to the performance of product and/or service supply contracts;
– Periodic review of data collection, processing and storage processes and procedures.
- Transfer of data to a third country
If we transfer your personal data outside the European Economic Area (EEA) – in the situations described in this Policy – such a transfer will only take place if the European Commission has recognised an adequate level of data protection for the third country concerned, if we have agreed an adequate level of protection with the data recipient (e.g. through the European standard contractual clauses), or if you have given us your consent – in any case, in compliance with the conditions and safeguards required by the GDPR. You can obtain more information about the list of third countries to which we may transfer your data, as well as the transfer safeguards implemented, using Kadra’s contact details for data protection matters.
- Data subjects’ rights regarding personal data
Because we are committed to protecting data subjects’ rights, we would like to inform you that you have a number of rights under the GDPR. We want to assure you that Kadra will respect these rights fully, promptly and in the most professional manner.
Social media platforms and search engines give you the direct ability to manage how they process, use and share your data. We encourage you to review the features these operators offer and manage their processing of your data according to your own decisions and interests, by reviewing their data processing policies.
If you would like more details about your rights regarding your personal data in relation to Kadra, you can contact us as described below. We will try to respond to your requests without delay and no later than 30 (thirty) calendar days (or within another reasonable period, under the conditions of the GDPR). To make sure that you are the owner of the data in respect of which you are exercising your rights, we may ask you for certain information/data to verify your identity, or for more details about your request. We also inform you that we may keep our correspondence with you in order to fulfil our specific obligation to keep records of your requests regarding Kadra’s processing of personal data.
We will not charge any fee for responding to/acting on your requests to exercise a right, unless you exercise that right excessively. Also, if you ask us for a written copy of your data, we will provide the first copy free of charge and may charge a reasonable fee for further copies.
If we have a legal basis to do so (e.g. your request is manifestly unfounded or excessive, in particular because of its repetitive nature), we may refuse your request, in which case we will tell you the reasons for the refusal.
We will respond to your request through the channel you used to contact us (e-mail, phone, post) or the one you specify in your request. To help us handle your requests efficiently and promptly, please make the subject line of your written e-mail request as descriptive as possible (e.g. “personal data portability”, “access request”).
- The right to be informed is ensured through this data processing Policy.
- The right of access to data
Through this Policy we provide details about the data, the purpose and the manner in which we process your data.
However, you may ask us at any time to confirm what data we collect and process about you, and you may request access to your data and the following information about it: the purposes of processing; the categories of personal data concerned; the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the data has been or will be disclosed; the envisaged period for which the data will be stored, or the criteria used to determine it; the existence of the right to request rectification or erasure of your data, restriction of processing or to object to processing; the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority; the source of any data obtained from third parties; and the existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, and, where applicable, meaningful information about the logic involved and the significance and envisaged consequences of such processing.
To exercise your right of access, you can send us your request easily and quickly via the contact form or by e-mail: contact@kadra.ro.
- The right to object to the processing of data for certain purposes
If you wish to object to the processing of data based on our legitimate interest, we may nevertheless continue processing if we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for further processing that override your interests, rights and freedoms, or if the purpose of further processing is the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
You can object directly at any time, unconditionally, by sending a written request using the contact form or by e-mail: contact@kadra.ro. We will act on your request without delay and respond within the stated time frame.
- The right to withdraw consent
If we process your data based on your consent, you can withdraw your consent at any time, and Kadra will no longer process your data for that purpose, unless Kadra can base further processing on another legal ground, in which case we will inform you as soon as possible and provide all relevant details.
You can withdraw your consent by sending a written request using the contact form or by e-mail: contact@kadra.ro. We will act on your request without delay and respond within the stated time frame.
- The right to erasure (“right to be forgotten”)
You have the right to ask us to erase your data in any of the following situations: (i) the personal data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which we collected or processed it; (ii) you withdraw the consent on which we process your data and there is no other legal ground for further processing; (iii) you object to processing based on our legitimate interest and we cannot demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that justify the processing and override your interests, rights and freedoms; (iv) you object to the processing of data for direct marketing purposes; (iv) the personal data has been processed unlawfully; (v) the personal data must be erased to comply with our legal obligations.
We may refuse your request for erasure only where: (i) we are required to comply with legal obligations; or (ii) it is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of our legal claims.
You can contact us to exercise your right to erasure easily and quickly via the contact form or by e-mail: contact@kadra.ro.
In addition, if your data is erased, we will inform our partners/suppliers with whom we carry out certain activities / who are authorised to process data on our behalf to erase any links to, copies or reproductions of that data.
- The right to restriction of processing
You have the right to obtain from us the restriction of processing of your data in the following situations: (i) you contest the accuracy of the data we process – in which case we will restrict processing for the period during which we verify the accuracy of the data; (ii) the processing is unlawful and you request only the restriction of its use (and oppose its erasure); (iii) although we no longer need your data for the purposes of processing, you require it for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims; or (iv) you object to processing where we rely on a legitimate interest – for the time it takes us to verify whether our legitimate grounds override your rights and freedoms.
In these situations, we will refrain from processing your data (except for storing it), so that it is not subject to any further processing. If we have already shared your data with our partners/suppliers by that time, we will notify them immediately of the restriction of processing, after first consulting you.
We may continue to process your data only if: (i) any of the situations described above is resolved, (ii) you consent to further processing, or (iii) such processing is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of our legal claims, for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of important public interest of the Union or of our country.
- The right to rectification
You have the right to obtain from us the rectification of your data if you find that the data we process is incorrect, incomplete or inaccurate. You can request the change from Kadra via the contact form or by e-mail: contact@kadra.ro.
We will correct your data without undue delay. Where we have justified grounds for not acting on your request, we will explain the reasons for this decision.
- The right to data portability
You have the right to request the transfer of your data held by us (i) to you, or (ii) to another controller you designate. The second option means you can ask us to transfer your data to another data controller.
