Who has access to your personal data?
Only our duly authorised employees or associates will have access to your personal data, to the extent that this is necessary for the performance of their duties.

Our billing data is entrusted to a professional accounting firm for processing.
We also use workflow and records management tools such as Microsoft Office 365, all of which provide an appropriate level of security for the range of data we process there, based on appropriate contracts and safeguards. If the servers were to be located outside the European Economic Area, we use appropriate legal mechanisms to ensure the security of the transferred data.

Revocation of consent – you can revoke your consent to the processing of your personal data at any time, however without affecting the legality of processing performed prior to such revocation.
Erasure of data – in certain situations, GDPR gives you the so-called “right to be forgotten.” You can exercise this right if we are still processing your personal data, particularly in the following cases:
– the data is no longer vital for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed;

– you have objected to the processing of your personal data for marketing purposes;
– your data is processed in a manner that violates the law;
– the law requires erasure of your personal data.
Restriction of processing – in certain situations, you can demand, that we limit our activities basically only to storing information about you, when:
– you question the correctness of personal data that we are processing – for a period of time that allows us to determine the correctness of that data;
– the processing of your personal data violates the law, but you prefer restriction of processing rather than erasure of the data;
– we no longer need your personal data for the purposes of processing, but you need it for establishing, pursuing, or defending your legal claims;
– you have objected to the processing of your personal data – only until such time as it is determined whether your interests take precedence over our legitimate interests.
Data portability – you have the right to receive your data in a commonly-used format that can be read by a computer, and also to have your data sent to another data controller, if:

– when our processing is based on our legitimate interest;
– when we process your personal data for purposes related to scientific or historical studies, or for statistical purposes.
Remember, however, that when despite of your objection we conclude that there are important, legitimate grounds for processing that override your interests, rights and freedoms, or for establishing, pursuing or defending claims, we will continue to process your personal data, which were subject of your objection, to the necessary extent. If you disagree with such an assessment of the situation, you can exercise your right to file a complaint with the relevant public authority (more information below).
Complaints to the relevant public authority – in connection with our actions as the data controller, you have the right to file a complaint to the relevant public authority, which in Poland is the President of the Personal Data Protection Office (PUODO).
