2. Scope of this policy

This Privacy Policy applies to personal data processed when you visit meapood.com, contact ME&P by email or telephone, use the website contact interface, or otherwise communicate with us in relation to our services, projects or business activities.

3. Personal data we may process

Depending on how you interact with ME&P, we may process identification and contact data such as your name, email address, telephone number, company or organisation, professional role, and any information you voluntarily include in a message or business enquiry.

The current website does not create user accounts and does not operate an online customer database. The contact form prepares an email in the visitor's own email application; the information entered is not submitted to or stored in a website database by this static version.

4. Purposes and legal bases

We may process personal data for the following purposes:

• Responding to enquiries and pre-contractual requests — to understand your request, communicate with you and assess possible services or cooperation. The legal basis may be steps taken at your request before entering into a contract.
• Managing contractual and business relationships — where a relationship is established, to provide, coordinate and administer agreed services. The legal basis is the performance of a contract or steps connected with it.
• Business correspondence and relationship management — to maintain professional communications with clients, prospects, partners and institutional contacts where this is necessary for our legitimate business interests and does not override your rights and freedoms.
• Compliance with legal obligations — where processing is required by applicable accounting, tax, corporate, regulatory or other legal requirements.
• Direct marketing — only where legally permitted. Where consent is required, communications will be sent only after valid consent and you may withdraw that consent at any time.

5. Data minimisation

Please do not send special-category or highly sensitive personal data through the website or ordinary email unless it is genuinely necessary and an appropriate secure channel has been agreed with ME&P.

6. Recipients and service providers

Personal data may be accessed by authorised ME&P personnel and, where necessary for the requested service, by carefully selected professional advisers, accountants, technical specialists, IT or hosting providers, and other service providers acting under appropriate confidentiality and data-protection obligations.

We may also disclose data where required by law, a competent authority, court order or other binding legal obligation.

7. International transfers

ME&P works with international clients and partners. If personal data needs to be transferred outside the European Economic Area, ME&P will use an applicable lawful transfer mechanism and appropriate safeguards where required by the GDPR.

8. Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including the management of enquiries, contractual relationships, legal obligations, accounting requirements, dispute resolution and the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims. Retention periods may therefore vary according to the nature of the relationship and applicable law.

9. Your rights

Subject to the conditions and limitations of the GDPR, you may have the right to request access to your personal data, rectification of inaccurate data, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability, and to object to certain processing. Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw consent at any time without affecting processing carried out before withdrawal.

To exercise your rights, contact info@meapood.com. We may need to verify your identity before responding to a request.

10. Complaints

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a competent supervisory authority. In Bulgaria, the supervisory authority is the Commission for Personal Data Protection (CPDP), 2 Prof. Tsvetan Lazarov Blvd., 1592 Sofia, Bulgaria. Information on complaints is available on the CPDP website.

11. Security

ME&P applies reasonable technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal data against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, accidental loss or destruction. No method of transmission or storage can, however, be guaranteed to be completely secure.

12. External websites and services

The website may contain links to third-party websites, maps, institutional sources or social platforms. Those third parties operate under their own privacy notices and ME&P is not responsible for their independent processing activities.

13. Cookies and local storage

The current version of meapood.com does not use analytics, advertising or behavioural-tracking cookies. For details about the limited browser storage used by the site, please read our Cookie Policy.

14. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy when website functionality, business practices or legal requirements change. The date shown at the top of this page identifies the latest published version.

Important: this policy reflects the current static website configuration. If analytics, advertising pixels, embedded third-party media, CRM forms, newsletter tools, automated marketing or other tracking technologies are added, this policy and the consent mechanism must be reviewed before those tools are activated.
