1.   Overview

 

1.1. What Are Personal Data?

The Personal Data mean any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (“data subject”). This will include data such as name, address, date of birth, telephone number or email address (this list is not exhaustive).

The Personal Data are processed in accordance with the GDPR, i.e. 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 (General Data Protection Regulation)

 

1.2. What Are Your Rights in Relation to the Processing of Your Personal Data?

You have the right to:

  • access your data, including to obtain a copy of the data;
  • transfer the data;
  • rectify and delete the data;
  • restrict data processing;
  • where a decision (based on data) is taken by fully automated means, you have the right to obtain human intervention on the part of the Controller, as well as the right to express your views and to challenge that decision; in this case, the Controller shall provide meaningful information about the logic involved, as well as the significance and the envisaged consequences of such processing for the data subject;
  • not be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you, unless the conditions set out in the GDPR are fulfilled;
  • file a complaint with the supervisory body (the President of the Office for Personal Data Protection) – ul. Stawki 2, Warsaw 00-193. 

 

Note!

Right to object

Whenever your Personal Data are processed pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) or (e) of the GDPR (see below in Section 2), i.e. based on the so-called legitimate interest or public interest, you may object at any time. You may object using the contact details indicated in the introduction to the Privacy Policy.

 

(See more about your rights at: www.uodo.gov.pl). We also encourage you to read the leaflet on your rights available at https://www.gov.pl/cyfryzacja/rodo-informator

 

1.3. How Can You Tell Us that You Want to Exercise Your Rights?

You can exercise your rights in person at the Controller's office, by mail or email (see above for the Controller's contact details).

In response to your request, you may be asked to provide the data necessary to identify your Personal Data (among others, to find them) or to verify your identity (confirming that you are the person you claim to be). In this case, only the Personal Data will be processed to the extent necessary to document the proper performance of the obligations related to the request (including proper documentation of withdrawal of consent) for the purposes of defence against claims (Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, the so-called legitimate interest of the Data Controller) and to fulfil the obligations arising from the GDRP (including ensuring accountability under Article 6(1)(c) of the GDPR). For these purposes, the data will be processed, at the latest, until the end of the period of limitation of potential claims related thereto.

According to the GDPR, the information shall be provided in writing, or by other means, including, where appropriate, by electronic means. When requested by the data subject, the information may be provided orally, provided that the identity of the data subject is proven by other means.

 

1.4. What Does 'Consent-based Data Processing' Mean?

If the Personal Data are processed on the basis of consent (e.g. using the image for promotional purposes - see more in Section 2), remember that:

  • the consent is always voluntary;
  • the consent may be revoked at any time in person at the Controller's office, by mail or email (see above for contact details);
  • The withdrawal of consent shall not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal;
  • after the withdrawal of consent, the data will no longer be used, they will be deleted or anonymised, which does not, however, preclude the processing of data to the extent necessary to prove that the statement of withdrawal of consent has been registered and implemented, which is the legitimate interest of the Data Controller in defending against claims and demonstrating compliance with the regulations on the protection of Personal Data (Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, the so-called legitimate interest of the Data Controller) – at the latest, until the end of the period of limitation of these claims.

 

1.5. Who Has Access to Personal Data?

Your Personal Data will only be accessed by authorised employees/cooperators acting on the Controller's instructions. The data may also be disclosed to service providers, e.g. IT service providers supporting the Controller's purposes listed below (after the conclusion of relevant data processor agreements). The data may also be disclosed to the recipients that are separate Data Controllers, e.g. public administration bodies, at their request.

For the details on the purposes of disclosure, see below in the parts discussing different purposes of data processing (see Sections 2 and 3).

 

1.6. Is the Provision of Data Voluntary?

The provision of data is, in principle, voluntary. Whenever the provision of data is:

  • Voluntary but necessary to achieve specific objectives (e.g. email contact via online form); or
  • mandatory (e.g., it is required by law), you will be informed about it separately and clearly (e.g. on a form through which Personal Data are collected).

 

1.7. Where does the Controller collect data from?

As a rule, the Controller collects data directly from you.

We use other sources to collect the data for the purpose of tax verification of business partners, using publicly available sources (e.g. National Court Register (KRS) / Central Registration and Information on Business (CEIDG) / registers of taxpayers published by public administration bodies), at the stage of conclusion and performance of the agreement. When we obtain data from another source, you will be informed about this separately and clearly.

 

1.8. What Categories of Data Are Processed? 

The Controller processes only regular data, including contact details indicated in Section 1.7.

 

We do not process special categories of data, i.e. the information that could disclose: racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, or trade union membership, as well as genetic data, biometric data for the purpose of uniquely identifying a natural person, data concerning health or data concerning a natural person's sex life or sexual orientation.

 

1.9. Changes to this Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to change the Privacy Policy, which may be affected by the development of Internet technology, possible changes in the law on Personal Data protection. We will inform about any changes in a visible and understandable way through our website at www.datascience.house

The usage data are not combined with information such as your name, email address and other data that makes it possible to easily identify you as a visitor to the website. 

 

3.5. Personal Data Protection

The information collected through cookie mechanism and usage data may constitute Personal Data within the meaning of the GDPR in certain exceptional situations. If the information indicated above is qualified as Personal Data, the Controller is the Personal Data Controller. Even if there are doubts whether a certain category of information belongs to Personal Data, the Controller introduces mechanisms to protect this information in the same way as Personal Data.

The processing of these categories of data to the extent that it is necessary for the correct performance of the website (“required” cookies) is based on the so-called legitimate interest of the Controller (Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. In order to do this:

  • log files may be occasionally analysed to determine: which web browsers are used by the visitors to the website; which sections, pages or subpages are the most or the least frequently visited or browsed; whether the website structure is error-free;
  • it may be required to prevent unauthorised access to the website and distribution of malicious codes, interrupt “denial of service” attacks, and prevent damage to computer and electronic communication systems.

In the above cases, you have the right to object (when data are processed under Article 6(1)(f) of the GDRP).

By agreeing to install “optional” cookies (e.g., analytical cookies provided by Google Analytics / marketing cookies), you acknowledge that the information collected in this way will be used to study the preferences of people using our website for the purpose of improving our website performance. In this case, the basis for data processing is Article 173(2) of the Telecommunications Law (Journal of Laws of 2004, No. 171, item 1800) in connection with Article 6(1)(a) of the GDRP. As indicated in Article 174 of the Telecommunications Law, the provisions on the protection of Personal Data apply to obtaining the consent of the subscriber or end user.

You can withdraw your consent and delete cookies from your device at any time. The withdrawal of consent shall not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

Data recipients: IT companies providing services to the Controller.

 

3.6. Deletion of Data Collected through Cookie and Usage Data Mechanism

Personal Data will be deleted or anonymised at the latest after the expiration of the period of limitation of potential claims related to the use of the website (no later than 1 year from the date of fixation), or earlier if you make an effective objection. The provision of data is voluntary, but necessary to achieve the above mentioned purposes.
