Privacy policy

Last updated: 2 November 2026

This policy explains what personal data we process, why we do it and what rights you have. We process data in line with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the laws of the Republic of Lithuania.

This is a translation. If the English and Lithuanian versions differ, the Lithuanian version prevails.

1. Who processes your data

The data controller is MB „Monic“ (company code 308127586, registered office T. Kosciuškos g. 17, LT-01100 Vilnius), which operates under the Tapio brand. Data about the company is kept in the Register of Legal Entities of Lithuania.

For any data question, write to info@tapio.lt or call +370 650 75536.

3. Cookies

This website does not use advertising, analytics or any other cookies that require your consent, and it uses no external fonts or tracking tools. If we start using such cookies in the future, we will ask for your consent first and update this policy.

4. Who we share data with

We do not sell your data. It may be accessed only by those who help us provide our services, and only as far as necessary:

  • our email and document service provider (Google Ireland Limited, Google Workspace);
  • our website hosting and security provider (Cloudflare, Inc.);
  • our contact form provider (Web3Forms);
  • other IT service providers whose tools we use to draft emails and handle enquiries;
  • public authorities, where required by law.

Some service providers may process data outside the European Economic Area. In such cases, safeguards provided for in the GDPR apply, such as standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission or an adequacy decision.

5. Your rights

You have the right to:

  • access your data and receive a copy of it;
  • have inaccurate data corrected;
  • have your data erased;
  • restrict the processing of your data;
  • receive your data in a common format and transfer it to another controller;
  • object at any time to the processing of your data for direct marketing – we will then stop using it for that purpose;
  • object to processing based on legitimate interest.

To exercise your rights, write to info@tapio.lt. We will reply within one month at the latest.

6. Where to complain

If you think your data is being processed improperly, please contact us first – we will do our best to resolve it. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the State Data Protection Inspectorate of Lithuania (L. Sapiegos g. 17, 10312 Vilnius, ada@ada.lt, vdai.lrv.lt).

7. Other important information

You are not required to provide your data, but without contact details we cannot reply to your enquiry or fulfil an order.

We do not make automated decisions that have legal effects on you, and we do not use profiling.

We apply appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect data against unauthorised access, loss or disclosure.

We may update this policy. The latest version is always published on this page.
