In just 5 points
Who are we?
Al-Mar Técnicas Ortopédicas S.L. (hereinafter, “3DS / 3DSquad”) is the party responsible for processing your personal data. This means that we decide how and for what purposes we use your data, undertaking to process it in a lawful, transparent and secure manner.
What do we use your data for?
We will use your personal data to manage your registration as a user, process your online orders and purchases, manage payments, shipments, returns and warranties, respond to your enquiries and quotation requests, as well as to send you commercial communications where you have authorised us to do so or where there is a legal basis for it.
Why may we use your data?
We process your data because it is necessary to perform the sales contract when you place an order, to comply with legal obligations, to handle requests made by you and, in certain cases, because you have given us your consent or because there is a legitimate interest that supports such processing.
With whom do we share your data?
We may share your data with providers that supply services necessary for the operation of our business (technology platforms, payment gateway, transport companies, financial institutions, web hosting providers, etc.), as well as with Public Authorities where there is a legal obligation.
Your rights
You may exercise your rights of access, rectification, erasure, objection, restriction of processing and portability of your personal data, as well as withdraw your consent at any time where the processing is based on it.

2. For what purpose do we process your personal data?
Depending on how you interact with our website, we may process the following categories of data:
- Identification and contact data: name, surname, address, telephone, email, company name, tax IDs (CIF/NIF/VAT), etc.
- Financial and transactional data: payments, orders, returns, invoicing, etc.

- Browsing data and use of the website.
- Commercial information when you request to receive communications.
- Curricula vitae submitted through the channels enabled for this purpose.
As regards payment data, the full card details and payment methods are processed directly by the payment gateway (Stripe); 3DS / 3DSquad does not store the full card details.
Your data will be processed for the following purposes:
- Manage your registration as a user of the website, where such functionality exists.
- Manage the purchase of products and services made through our online store.
- Manage payments, shipments, deliveries, returns and warranties.
- Manage enquiries, quotation requests, information requests and customer service.
- Send communications relating to your orders or contracted services.

Automated decisions. The website performs an automated technical analysis of the CAD file you upload (volume, mesh integrity and dimensions) for the sole purpose of providing you with an indicative quotation. This operation is purely technical, runs in your own browser and produces no legal effects on you, nor does it involve profiling. The final acceptance of any order always requires human intervention by our team.
Special categories of data (health data) — art. 9 GDPR. Our manufacturing service is a technical processing of geometry and is not intended to collect health data. We ask that you do not include personal health data (nor third-party personal data) in the files, images, file names or notes you send us, unless it is essential for the commission. If, due to the nature of a custom-made part (for example, an orthosis or an element of anatomical adaptation), it were necessary to process data that could be considered health data, such processing will be limited to what is strictly necessary to carry out your commission and will be based on your explicit consent (art. 9(2)(a) GDPR), which you give by voluntarily sending us that information and confirming the order. You may withdraw that consent at any time by writing to almar3ds@gmail.com.
3. Social media
3DS / 3DSquad maintains corporate profiles on various social networks. Users’ interaction with these profiles entails the processing of personal data in accordance with the privacy policies of each social network and with this Privacy Policy. The purpose is to manage the company’s corporate presence, provide information about products and services, respond to enquiries and maintain the relationship with users and followers.
4. Legal basis for processing
The processing of your personal data is based on the following legal grounds:
- Performance of a contract (art. 6(1)(b) GDPR): to manage orders, payments, shipments, returns, warranties and contracted services, as well as pre-contractual measures requested by the data subject (e.g. quotation requests).
- Compliance with legal obligations (art. 6(1)(c) GDPR): tax, accounting, commercial, consumer and any other applicable legal obligations.
- Consent of the data subject (art. 6(1)(a) GDPR): for sending commercial communications, contact forms, newsletter subscriptions or any processing that requires prior authorisation.
- Legitimate interest (art. 6(1)(f) GDPR): to ensure the security of the website, prevent fraud, improve our services and send commercial communications about products or services similar to those previously contracted, in accordance with article 21.2 of Spanish Law 34/2002 (LSSICE).
Where the requested data is mandatory for the provision of a service or the handling of a request, this will be expressly indicated. Refusal to provide it may prevent the proper handling of the request or the provision of the service.
5. Retention periods
Personal data will be retained only for the time necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected and, thereafter, for as long as legal, contractual or any other type of liability may arise. In particular:

- Supplier and collaborator data: for the duration of the contractual relationship and, thereafter, during the periods required by tax, accounting and commercial regulations (generally 6 years).

- CAD and design files provided by the customer: up to 24 months from the last production, in order to enable future reorders by the customer, unless there is a prior express deletion request.
- Data from enquiries and requests without a contract (leads): data from mere enquiries (chat, contact forms, quotation or information requests) that do not result in a contractual relationship will be retained for a maximum of 24 months from the last contact, unless there is a prior deletion request, after which it is deleted or anonymised.
- Commercial communications or newsletter data: until consent is revoked or an unsubscribe request is made, and thereafter blocked during the liability periods.
