Basic terms and information

What is personal data?

The term “personal data” refers to every item of information about an identified or identifiable natural person (subject of data). An identifiable natural person is a natural person who can be directly or indirectly identified, particularly by means of a link to a certain identifier (name, surname, identification number, network identifier) or to one or more elements of such natural person’s physical, physiological, genetic, psychological, economic, cultural or social identity.

Special category of personal data

This involves only a new designation of sensitive personal data. It pertains to such personal data that can cause you difficulties in society, at work or at school or can cause you to suffer discrimination. Such personal data usually pertain to racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious affiliation or union membership. This may also refer to processing of genetic data, biometric data for the purpose of singular identification of a natural person and data on a given natural person’s health condition, sex life or sexual orientation.

Subject of data

A subject of data is a natural person to whom personal data pertain and who can be identified or is identifiable based on personal data.

Administrator of personal data

The personal data administrator is a natural person or legal entity that determines the purposes and means of processing personal data and is primarily responsible for processing. Unless stated otherwise in these principles or in the terms and conditions of a particular product, it applies that NEXT is the administrator of personal data.

Processor of personal data

The personal data processor is a natural person or legal entity that processes personal data for the administrator on the basis of the administrator’s instructions.

Processing of personal data

Personal data processing is any operation or set of operations that is executed with personal data or sets of personal data with or without the use of automated processes such as collection, recording, arrangement, organisation, structuring, adjustment or alteration, search, viewing, use, and making such data accessible by means of transfer, dissemination or other means of making data accessible, arrangement or combination, restriction, deletion or destruction of such data.

Which legal regulation governs the processing of personal data?

The processing of personal data is governed particularly by Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council (EU) 2016/679 of 27 April 2016 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/ES (hereinafter referred to as the “General Data Protection Regulation” or “GDPR”). In some case where such is allowed by the GDPR, national regulations can stipulate different rules. This is governed by Act No. 101/2000 Coll., on Protection of Personal Data.

When is it possible to process personal data?

For legal processing of your personal data, at least one of the conditions set forth in Article 6 of the GDPR must be fulfilled. In the event that this involves a special category of personal data, at least one of the conditions set forth in Article 9 of the GDPR must be fulfilled. In both cases, the principles of personal data processing set forth in Article 5 of the GDPR must be complied with.

Security of personal data

Technical, organisational and other measures

We strive to ensure that your personal data processed by NEXT have the maximum degree of security. For this purpose, we have implemented a range of technical and organisational measures that protect personal data against unauthorised and illegal processing and against inadvertent loss, destruction and damage.

We comply with the principal of minimisation of personal data. We process only the information about you that we absolutely need or information that you provide to us with your consent beyond the framework of absolutely necessary processing.

Period of personal data processing

The longest period of duration of personal data processing we apply at NEXT in relation to you is ten years from the date when the legal relationship between the data subject and NEXT terminated. The above-mentioned period arises from Act No. 89/2012, the Civil Code, as amended, or, as the case may be, Act No. 235/2004 Coll., on Value Added Tax, as amended. The reason for such processing is legal obligation or the legitimate interest of NEXT. Upon expiry of this period, all of your personal data will be deleted.

Other period of personal data processing

If you reach out to our contact centre with questions or in the case of ordinary communication with us, we will delete your personal data much earlier than in the time period stated above. We will retain your personal data only for the necessary period of time that we require for fulfilment of the purposes set forth in these principles of personal data protection or for the purpose of fulfilling obligations mandated by law.

If you would like to know which of your personal data we process, you can request such information via e-mail at osobniudaje@next.cz.

We would like to inform you that if we are not able to verify your identity electronically or if we have legitimate doubts about your identity, we will request that you present your identification card at the NEXT s.r.o. location at Na Pankráci 79, Prague 4. Only in that way can we ensure that we will not provide your personal data to someone who is impersonating you.

We will handle your request in the shortest possible time. Depending on the complexity and scope of your request, such handling may take up to several weeks.

Right to correction

If you determine that any of your personal data that we process are inaccurate or out-of-date, please inform us of such fact here.

You can also exercise your right “to be forgotten”. In such a case, we will delete all of your personal data that we process, with the exception of cases when processing is conducted for the purpose of fulfilling legal obligations or for reasons of our legitimate interest. In this case, we require the data subject’s identification before we carry out deletion of personal data.
