Who we are
This website, frompara.com, is operated by PARA SIA, registration number 44103139495, Mazā Juglas iela 3F, Rīga, LV-1064, Latvia. We are the controller of personal data processed through cookies on this site.
Questions about this policy, or about your data: [email protected]
What cookies are
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They let the site remember things between page loads — that you're signed in, what's in your basket, which language you chose.
Some cookies are needed for the site to work at all. Others are optional and only used if you agree to them.
How we handle cookies
When you first visit, a banner asks you to choose between accepting all cookies or only the essential ones. We set no optional cookies until you accept them. If you choose essentials only, or close the banner without choosing, nothing optional is placed on your device.
We also block third-party content — embedded video and social media — from loading until you accept optional cookies. That means those services can't set cookies or receive your data before you've agreed.

Data outside the European Economic Area
Some of the third-party providers listed above are based in the United States, so accepting optional cookies may involve transferring your data outside the EEA. These transfers rely on the EU–US Data Privacy Framework and on the providers' standard contractual clauses. You can find details in each provider's own privacy policy.
Changing your mind
You can withdraw or change your consent at any time, and it takes no more effort than giving it did:
- Use the Update My Cookie Preferences button at the top of this page
- Or delete this site's cookies in your browser settings, which brings the banner back on your next visit
Withdrawing consent doesn't affect anything processed before you withdrew it.
You can also block or delete cookies directly in your browser. Every browser handles this differently — look under Settings, Privacy, or Help. Blocking essential cookies will stop the shop working.
Do Not Track
We don't respond to browser Do Not Track signals, as there's no agreed standard for how they should be interpreted.
Your rights
Under the GDPR you have the right to access your personal data, correct it, have it erased, restrict or object to its processing, and receive a copy in portable form. Write to us at [email protected] and we'll respond within one month.
If you believe we've handled your data improperly, you can complain to the Latvian supervisory authority:
Datu valsts inspekcija Elijas iela 17, Rīga, LV-1050 [email protected] · +371 67223131 www.dvi.gov.lv
More information
How we handle personal data generally is set out in our Privacy Policy.
