  1.  Personal Data recipients.

We may share your data with the following categories of entities:

a) subcontractors, i.e. entities whose services we use when processing data and with which we have personal data processing entrustment agreements in place: e.g. 

  • providers of a Newsletter service programme; 
  • providers of an application package for companies, including electronic mail; and
  • hosting provider and entities providing IT support services for us; and
  1. entities to which we are entitled to transfer your data by applicable law.

 The detailed list of data recipients is available on request.

  1. Transferring data outside the European Economic Area.

Due to the technical solutions applied while processing the Newsletter service Users’ personal data, including cloud, email, CRMs, solutions supporting forms placed on a website and its other functions, your Personal Data processed by us may be transferred to a third country, i.e. a country which is not a member of the European Economic Area (EEA).  

We at all times inform of the intention to transfer personal data outside the EEA upon the collection thereof. The level of the Personal Data protection outside the European Economic Area differs from the level ensured by European law. Due to the above, we transfer Personal Data outside the EEA only when it is necessary and after we ensure an adequate Data protection level.

In addition, we inform that in connection with the usage of the said tools your Data may be transferred to the United States of America. At present, the USA is not subject to the European Commission decision on an adequate level of Personal Data protection – in line with the European law standard. In view of the lack of adequate safeguards, there is a risk of inadequate protection of Personal Data collected by the said tools, including the risk of American public authorities having access thereto. Such situation may result in the restriction of your rights related to Personal Data protection which you shall enjoy by the European Union law.

Upon each transfer we act with due care so that we ensure an adequate level of Personal Data protection (safeguards) by virtue of legal mechanisms provided for in RODO, specifically we care that the transer be based on:

▪ the European Commission decision on an adequate protection level (in the case of countries with respect to which such decision was issued);

▪ binding corporate rules approved of by a competent supervisory body; and

▪ standard contractual clauses approved of by the European Commission.

Data may be transferred also irrespective of our failure to apply legal mechanisms securing Personal Data processing outside the EEA.

You may contact us to obtain detailed information on Personal Data transfer outside the European Economic Area, including copies of safeguards.   

  1. Duration of data storage.

Your data will be processed for as long as it is necessary to fulfil the said processing purposes, i.e. for the time necessary to provide the Newsletter Service, but no longer than until you unsubscribe from the Newsletter or we discontinue to issue the Newsletter.

  1. Rights of data subjects.

Under RODO, you have the right to:

a)    access your data and receive copies thereof;
b)    correct your data;
c)    remove your personal data;
d)    restrict your data;
e)    transfer your data; and 

f)    file a complaint –  if you assume that the processing is in breach of RODO, you have the right to file a complaint with a supervisory body both in Poland (with the President of the Personal Data Protection Office, info line: 606 950 000), and in the Member State of your habitual residence, your place of work, or of the alleged breach.

We inform that the technique used when sending newsletters enables us to determine if and when you opened an email and which links in such email you activated.
