2. Nature, purpose and instructions
Processing covers recording, storage, display in the Shop's panel and sending e-mail notifications. The sole purpose is handling quotes and orders. MetronQ processes the data only on the Shop's documented instructions - using the Service's features constitutes such an instruction.

4. MetronQ's obligations
- Processing only for the purpose and to the extent defined in this DPA.
- Access limited to authorized persons bound by confidentiality.
- Technical and organizational measures: encryption in transit (TLS) and at rest, servers in the European Union, access control, backups.

5. Sub-processing
The Shop gives general authorization for the use of sub-processors. Current list: Hetzner Online GmbH (hosting and data storage, EU servers) and the e-mail provider handling notification delivery. MetronQ will give advance notice of intended changes, allowing the Shop to object.

- Backups are overwritten cyclically as part of the standard rotation.
