Within the framework of the operation of the Website, the following grounds, purposes and duration of the processing of personal data are distinguished:

concerning the NEWSLETTER SUBSCRIPTIONS

The legal basis for the processing of personal data is Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR, i.e.:

the consent given by the User when completing and submitting the contact form,

the User's consent to receive commercial information by e-mail expressed in the form or by mail,

as well as Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, due to the Data Controller's legitimate interest in the possible establishment, assertion or defence of contractual claims;

for the duration of the handling of the contact form, but no longer than until the User revokes his or her consent in this respect,

The Data Controller informs that the transfer of personal data outside the European Union entails a risk of uncontrolled data processing or loss.

The Data Controller does not make automated decisions and does not apply profiling with regard to the Users' personal data, unless the User consents to the operation of advertising cookies through the browser settings and the selected range of preferences in the so-called cookie banner. In this case, this profiling consists of automatically assessing which products or services the User may be interested in, using information about the content the User has viewed, and on this basis, the User - as part of the use of the online services - is shown advertisements for products or services tailored to the User. This profiling does not result in decisions that produce legal effects for the User or affect the User in a similarly significant manner.

The provision of personal data is voluntary, but necessary to use the services offered by the Data Controller.

The User has the right at any time:

to obtain confirmation from the Data Controller as to whether it is processing the User's personal data, as well as the right of access to such data, including the right to request a copy of the data (Article 15 of the GDPR),

With regard to data processing based on the User's consent, the User has the right to withdraw his or her consent to the processing of personal data at any time, which does not affect the validity of the processing prior to the withdrawal of consent.
