The company collects and processes personal data on the following legal bases:
Notification of individuals by email (e.g. newsletters)
The company may inform its clients, customers, and users of its services about its services, events, education, offers, and other content on their email address based on the performance of legitimate activities. An individual may at any time request the cessation of such communication and the processing of personal data and cancel the receipt of messages via the unsubscribe link in the received message, or submit a request by email or regular mail to the company’s address.
The legal bases for data processing are legitimate interest and consent. Data will be processed until the withdrawal of the message receipt or until the withdrawal of consent or until the purpose of the processing is fulfilled. The withdrawal of consent does not affect the legality of the processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
Execution of the concluded contract
In cases where an individual enters into a contract with the company, this constitutes the legal basis for the processing of personal data. The company may process personal data for the conclusion and execution of the contract, such as the sale of goods and services, preparation of an offer, participation in various programs, etc. If the individual does not provide personal data, the company cannot conclude the contract, nor can the company provide the service or deliver goods or other products following the concluded contract, as it does not have the necessary data for execution. On this basis, the company processes only and exclusively those personal data that are necessary for the conclusion and proper performance of contractual obligations.
The legal basis for data processing is the contract. The retention period is until the purpose of the contract is fulfilled or up to 6 years after the termination of the contract, except in cases where a dispute arises between the individual and the company concerning the contract. In such a case, the company retains the data for 10 years after the final court decision, arbitration, or court settlement, or if there was no court dispute, for 6 years from the date of amicable resolution of the dispute.
Legitimate interest
The company may also process personal data based on a legitimate interest it pursues. This is not permissible when such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the individual to whom the personal data relate, which require protection of personal data. In the case of using a legitimate interest, the company conducts an assessment following the legislation. The processing of personal data of individuals for direct marketing is considered to be carried out in a legitimate interest.
The company may process personal data of individuals collected from publicly accessible sources or within the scope of lawful business activities, also to offer goods, services, employment, informing about benefits, events, etc. To achieve these purposes, the company may use regular mail, telephone calls, email, and other telecommunications means. For direct marketing, the company may process the following personal data of individuals: name and surname of the individual, address of permanent or temporary residence, telephone number, and email address. The company may also process these personal data for direct marketing without the individual’s explicit consent. The individual may at any time request the cessation of such communication and the processing of personal data and cancel the receipt of messages via the unsubscribe link in the received message or submit a request by email or regular mail to the company’s address.
The legal base for data processing is a legitimate interest. Data will be processed until the withdrawal of the receipt of messages or until the purpose of the processing is fulfilled. The withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
Processing Based on Consent
If the company lacks a legal basis for processing based on law, contractual obligation, legitimate interest, or the protection of an individual’s life, it may request the individual’s consent. Thus, it can process certain personal data of the individual for the following purposes, when the individual gives their consent:
If an individual consents to the processing of their personal data and later decides they no longer wish to do so, they can request the cessation of processing of their personal data by submitting a request via email or regular mail to the company’s address. The revocation of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on the consent before its withdrawal. After receiving a revocation or deletion request, the data must be deleted no later than 15 days. The company may also delete this data before the revocation if the purpose of processing the personal data has been fulfilled or if required by law.
Exceptionally, the company may refuse a deletion request for reasons stated in the General Data Protection Regulation, in cases of exercising the right to freedom of expression and information, complying with a legal obligation for processing, reasons of public interest in the field of public health, for purposes of archiving in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes, statistical purposes, or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.
The legal basis for data processing is consent. The data will be processed until the revocation or withdrawal of consent, or until the purpose of processing is fulfilled. The revocation of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its revocation.
Protection of the vital interests of individual
The company may process the personal data of an individual to whom the data relates if it is necessary to protect their vital interests. In urgent cases, the company may seek an individual’s personal document, check whether that person exists in its database, review their medical history, or make contact with their relatives, for which the company does not need the individual’s consent. This applies in cases where it is necessary to protect the vital interests of the individual.
The company will retain personal data only for as long as necessary to achieve the purpose for which the personal data were collected and processed. If the company processes data based on the law, it will retain them for the period prescribed by the law. Some data are kept for the duration of cooperation with the company, while some data must be kept permanently. Personal data processed by the company based on a contractual relationship with the individual will be retained for the period necessary to execute the contract and for 6 years after its termination, except in cases where a dispute arises between the individual and the company regarding the contract. In such a case, the company keeps the data for 10 years after a final court decision, arbitration, or court settlement, or, if there was no court dispute, for 6 years from the day of the amicable resolution of the dispute. Personal data that the company processes based on the individual’s consent or legitimate interest will be kept until the revocation of consent or until a request for deletion of data is made. Upon receipt of the revocation or request for deletion, the data will be deleted without undue delay. The company may also delete these data before the revocation if the purpose of processing the personal data has been achieved or if required by law. In the case of exercising the individual’s rights, the company keeps the personal data of this individual until the matter has been finally decided, and thereafter in accordance with the final decision in the matter.
Exceptionally, the company may refuse the request for deletion for reasons such as: exercising the right to freedom of expression and information, fulfilling a legal obligation of processing, reasons of public interest in the field of public health, purposes of archiving in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes, or statistical purposes, enforcement or defense of legal claims. After the retention period expires, the company must effectively and permanently delete or anonymize the personal data so that they can no longer be associated with a specific individual.
The company may entrust certain personal data processing operations to a contractual processor based on a data processing agreement. Contractual processors may process entrusted data exclusively on behalf of the controller, within the limits of their authorization as stipulated in the written contract or another legal act, and by the purposes defined in this personal data protection policy.
The contractual processors with whom the company works are primarily:
For better oversight and control over contractual processors and the organization of their contractual relationships, the company also maintains a list of contractual processors, where all specific contractual processors with whom the company cooperates are listed.
Under no circumstances will the company transfer personal data of an individual to third unauthorized parties. Contractual processors may only process personal data within the framework of the company’s instructions and must not use the personal data for any other purpose.
The company as the controller and its employees do not transfer personal data to third countries (outside the member states of the European Economic Area – EU members, Iceland, Norway, and Liechtenstein) or international organizations, except to the USA, where relationships with contractual processors from the USA are regulated based on standard contractual clauses (template contracts adopted by the European Commission) and/or binding corporate rules (adopted by the company and approved by regulatory authorities in the EU).
