As part of the support service, you may be asked to activate your video camera in order to facilitate technical support personnel in assisting you.

Where you consent to enabling it, the Company might potentially process your image as captured during the video call.

In any event, the Company confirms that the sole purpose of enabling your video camera is to facilitate the technician in providing you with appropriate support. Accordingly, we ask that, where possible, you point the camera solely at the product for which you are requesting assistance, it being understood that the Company will nonetheless process any images of you for the sole purpose indicated above, without recording or storing it in any way.

Basis of processing: execution of a contract or precontractual measures. Where you voluntarily enable your video camera for support purposes, providing any images of you will be mandatory for the purposes of providing support service.
