The protection of private information concerning the Users of the Service is of paramount importance to us, and therefore we make every effort to ensure that you feel comfortable and safe while using the Service.
This Privacy Policy applies to all private information, including your personal data, that is collected and processed through the Service, and defines how we care for your personal data and your rights. It describes the principles of processing by us of information about you, including data and cookies.
To what extent and for what purpose do we process your personal data?
In connection with your use of the Service, your personal data is collected automatically. This includes data about your activity in the Service, i.e. your computer's IP number, the number and source of visits to the service, the time of the visit, the content viewed, the number and type of subpages opened. We do not use this information to identify you. This data is in the form of cookies – more about cookies later in the Policy.
The aforementioned personal data is processed by the Administrators for the following purposes:
- providing electronic services in the scope of making content collected in the Service available to Users, ensuring the user's ability to use the website's functions and contact with the Administrator – in this case, the legal basis for processing is its necessity for the performance of the contract (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR),

- for considering user complaints and defending against potential claims – then the legal basis for processing is the legitimate interest of the Administrators (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR),
- for maintaining the Administrators' profiles on social media (Facebook, LinkedIn) – then the legal basis for processing is the legitimate interest of the Administrators (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR),
- for monitoring and statistics of website visits concerning Google Analytics service – then the legal basis for processing is user consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR).
You can also contact us via email. Using this form of contact requires providing personal data necessary for correspondence and responding to your inquiry. You may also provide other data to facilitate the handling of your request. Personal data provided in an email will be processed for the purpose of correspondence, providing information, and responding to your questions, which constitutes the legitimate interest of the Administrators (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
The Administrators maintain their profiles, so-called „fan pages,” on social media platforms. Personal data processed through these platforms is administered by a third party. The processing of your personal data by this entity is governed by the laws to which the administrator of that service is subject, as well as its internal regulations. You can familiarize yourself with the privacy principles at the following addresses:
- LinkedIn: https://pl.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy,
- Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/privacy/center/,
- Instagram: https://privacycenter.instagram.com/.
The Administrators may also be independent administrators of personal data processed within the scope of fan page management, processing personal data on the following principles. Personal data is processed by each of the Administrators on their fan page on social media platforms for the following purposes:
- carrying out marketing activities consisting of informing about the activities of companies, co-administrators, within the scope of the Service and their offers via the fan page, including by sharing posts, which constitutes a legitimate interest pursued by the Administrator (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR);
- responding to private messages sent via the platform's functionality; in such a case, the legal basis for data processing is the Administrator's legitimate interest, consisting of conducting correspondence (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR);
- conducting discussions within posts placed on the fan page, enabling discussions using accounts created on a given social media platform, which constitutes a legitimate interest pursued by the Administrator (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR);
- obtaining statistical data – the Administrator may obtain statistical data regarding the fan page from the operator of LinkedIn, Instagram, or Facebook, which are generated based on the monitoring of your activity on the fan page by the data operator of LinkedIn, Instagram, or Facebook; in such a situation, the legitimate interest pursued by the Administrator is the analysis of statistical data concerning the fan page (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
In the case of any form of communication with the Administrator via the platforms: LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, your data indicated in your account details will be automatically made available to the Administrator: name, surname or nickname, as well as photo and other publicly available information. You can unfollow any of the Administrators' fan pages and delete your comments at any time.
How long do we store your personal data?
We store personal data in a form that allows identification of the data subject for as long as we need it for the purposes specified in this Privacy Policy. This period will vary depending on your interactions and cooperation with us.
As a general rule, data is processed for the duration of service provision or until an effective objection to data processing is lodged in cases where the legal basis for data processing is the legitimate interest of the Administrator. The data processing period may be extended if processing is necessary to establish and pursue any claims or defend against them, and after this period, only if and to the extent required by law. Your data obtained in connection with activities concerning our social media will be processed until you object to such processing.
Data related to network traffic analysis collected through cookies and similar technologies may be stored until the cookie expires. Some cookies never expire, therefore the data retention period will be equivalent to the time necessary for the administrator to achieve the goals related to data collection, such as ensuring security and analyzing historical data related to website traffic.
After the processing period, the data is irreversibly deleted or anonymized, i.e., deprived of characteristics that allow the identification of a given person. The deletion of personal data is complete and permanent. Personal data processed based on your consent will be stored until its withdrawal or the cessation of the processing purpose. We wish to note that the withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out based on consent before its withdrawal.
How do we protect your personal data?
All your personal data obtained through our Service is processed in a manner that ensures its security, in accordance with the provisions of generally applicable law, in particular in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, and repealing Directive 95/46/EC (GDPR).
Who is the recipient of your data and under what conditions do we transfer data to third countries?
Your personal data may be disclosed to persons authorized by the Administrators, to entities providing services to any of the Administrators, including technical and organizational services, email services, as well as to other entities, persons or authorities to the extent and on the terms resulting from generally applicable law. The recipient of your data may also be the provider of the Google Analytics tool – Google Ireland Ltd.
In the event of the need to disclose personal data to third parties, we require them to maintain confidentiality and security of information and to use it only to ensure the possibility of providing us with the given service.
We have entered into appropriate data processing agreements with entities to whom we entrust personal data.
Your data may be transferred outside the European Economic Area (EEA), in particular to Google LLC based in the USA.
Google LLC participates in the EU–US Data Privacy Framework, which has been recognized by the European Commission as providing an adequate level of personal data protection (EC decision of July 10, 2023).
In situations where data would be transferred to third countries not covered by the European Commission's decision establishing an adequate level of protection, the Controller applies appropriate safeguards, such as standard contractual clauses, in accordance with Art. 46 GDPR.
You can obtain a copy of the safeguards concerning data transfers outside the EEA by sending an inquiry to the Controller's e-mail address.
What are your rights regarding data processing?
In connection with the processing of your personal data and on the terms specified in the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), you have the right at any time to:
- access your personal data,
- request rectification of your personal data,
- request restriction of processing of your personal data,
- request erasure of your personal data, if the Controllers are not obliged by law to process them. Despite the request for erasure of personal data, in connection with lodging an objection or withdrawing consent, we may retain certain personal data to the extent necessary for the purposes of establishing, pursuing or defending claims. This applies in particular to personal data including: name, surname, e-mail address and browsing history, which data we retain for the purposes of handling complaints and claims related to the use of our services.,
- obtain information about the purposes of processing, categories of personal data processed, recipients or categories of recipients of such data, the planned period of storage of your data or the criteria for determining this period, the rights available to you under GDPR and the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, the source of this data, automated decision-making, including profiling, and the safeguards applied in connection with the transfer of this data outside the European Union,
- object to data processing,
- withdraw consent to data processing at any time.
In the case of a request, we will make every effort to process it as quickly as possible. However, it is not always possible to fulfill a request. For example, the right to erasure of data cannot be exercised if we are obliged to store data based on a legal provision. We will inform you in writing or by email about the processing of your request.
You have the right to lodge a complaint with the President of the Personal Data Protection Office as the supervisory authority regarding personal data protection, if you believe that your personal data is processed by the Controllers in a manner inconsistent with the provisions of personal data protection law.

What are „cookies” and how do we use them?
The Controllers use cookies, i.e. so-called „cookies”. Cookies are IT data, in particular text files, which are stored on your end device and are intended for use of the Service. Cookies usually contain the name of the website they come from, their storage time on the end device, and a unique number.
Cookies are used to create statistics that help understand how users use services. By using cookies, we will be able to continuously improve the Service.
Two main types of cookies are used within the Service: „session cookies” and „persistent cookies”. „Session” cookies are temporary files that are stored on the user's end device until they leave the website or close the software, i.e. the web browser. „Persistent” cookies are stored on the user's end device for a time specified in the cookie parameters or until they are deleted by the user.
Cookies used in the operation of the Service can be divided into the following categories: necessary, performance, and functional.
Necessary cookies are always active. Without these files, you cannot navigate the Service or use its functions. We process your data in this regard based on art. 6 sec. 1 lit. f GDPR. You can object to such processing of your personal data, but in practice, this will make it impossible or significantly difficult to use our website.
Performance cookies are files that collect information about how users use the website, e.g., data on the subpages that are most frequently visited. They are intended to improve the operation of the Service. They are sent to Google LLC, based in the United States. The domains to which cookies are sent are: googletagmanager.com, gstatic.com, google.com. These files can only be activated with your consent, expressed by clicking on the appropriate checkbox, which will appear after opening the Service. You can withdraw your consent at any time.
Functional cookies are used to save information about your choices, thanks to which we can offer improved and personalized functions. For example, cookies of this type may store information about tracking numbers entered in applications. These files can only be activated with your consent, expressed by clicking on the appropriate checkbox, which will appear after opening the Service. You can withdraw your consent at any time.
By accepting cookies, you consent to the storage of cookies on your computer for the purposes specified above.
You can block the storage of cookies on your device at any time. To do this, you should configure the settings of the browser you are using accordingly. The function to disable the possibility of storing cookies on your device can generally be found in the „settings”, „options”, or „preferences” of the web browser you are using. If you have doubts or need detailed information, you can use the „help” option of the web browser you are using.
What tools do we use in connection with the operation of the Service?
Google Analytics
For statistical and analytical purposes, the Administrators use Google Analytics, provided by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Thanks to this tool, Administrators can obtain information regarding viewership statistics, information about traffic on the Service, basic demographic data, etc., which constitutes the legitimate interest of the Administrators (art. 6 sec. 1 lit. f GDPR). Furthermore, Google Analytics also enables the creation of aggregate reports. This data is statistical in nature and cannot be linked to specific users or IP addresses in any way. This data is used by the Administrators to analyze user behavior, which aims to optimize and improve the Service we run.
Details regarding data processing within the Google Analytics service are available at: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245.
To ensure the protection of your privacy, we have enabled the IP anonymization function (anonymizeIp), which shortens the user's IP address before it is saved or further processed by Google. Thanks to this, the IP address is not stored in its full form, and the user cannot be identified solely based on this identifier.
You can block the operation of Google Analytics by installing a plugin provided by Google: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
