By registering with Greener Act, the Client expressly consents to Greener Act sending information about products and services that may be of interest to the Client, using personal data for the purposes of direct marketing through any communication channel, namely by using email, SMS, MMS or other forms of automatic calling.
As a general rule, Greener Act treats your Personal Data based on one of the following grounds of lawfulness:
• Treatment is necessary for the execution of the Terms and Conditions between the Client and Greener Act;

3. Your Rights and Preferences
Based on the law applicable to the processing of Personal Data, the Clients may exercise their rights related to their Personal Data. Please note that, in some cases, Greener Act will not be complying - in full - with the Clients’ requests, as such rights may be dependent on the verification of certain conditions, or because Greener Act will have to balance the Clients’ rights with the rights and obligations of Greener Act to handle Clients’ Personal Data, as explained below:

Right of erasure
The Clients have the right to request the deletion of their Personal Data, for example, when the Personal Data collected is no longer necessary to fulfill the original purposes, when the Personal Data has become obsolete, or when the Clients exercise their right to withdraw consent.
