Who we are?

We are called the Data Controller – this means that we are responsible for determining the purposes of collecting and processing your personal data, and we are required to provide you with all information related to your privacy on our websites.

As for the details, below you will find the details of our Company:

EDISONDA Prosta spółka akcyjna with its registered office in Krakow (31-039), Dietla Street 52/9, registered in the Register of Entrepreneurs under KRS number: 0001036444, having NIP (tax number): 6793017492 and share capital of PLN 205.685,77.

We have also appointed a person in our structure who takes care of the appropriate level of people’s privacy.

Contact e-mail to our DPO: iod@edisonda.pl

What data do we collect about you?

We collect information about you when you provide it to us while using our services.

Information you provide to us

We collect information about you when you enter it into the services or otherwise provide it to us directly.

Personal information you provide through our services

This includes our websites that we own or operate. We collect data that you submit to these sites, including social media or social networking sites operated by us. For example, you provide us with personal information when you provide feedback or participate in any interactive features, surveys, contests, promotions, sweepstakes, activities or events. An additional action when you disclose personal information to us through our sites is when you participate in recruitment and apply for a position.

Information we collect automatically when you use the services

We collect information about you when you use our websites, including when you browse our websites and take certain actions on our websites.

Device and connection information

We collect information about your computer, phone, tablet or other device you use to browse our websites. Through your device, we also collect, among other things, information about your operating system, browser type, IP address, referring page URLs/device IDs, geographic location, age range and activity on the site. We use your IP address and/or your country preferences to provide you with a better experience on our websites.

Cookies and other tracking technologies

We use cookies and other tracking technologies (e.g. Google services: Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Youtube, and Facebook services: Facebook Pixel) to recognize you and your characteristics. These activities allow us to conduct analytical activities, e.g. to study traffic on our website, and marketing activities, e.g. to display advertisements.

How do we use the data we collect?

We use your personal data to:

  • provide you with newsletter services, including sending you commercial information. We will send you newsletters upon your consent to do so, or due to our legitimate interest to maintain positive business relationships with customers.
  • organize corporate events that require us to collect your data in order to send you an invitation or allow you to attend the event. In this case, data processing is based on your consent or our legitimate interest to maintain positive business relations with customers.
  • carry out other forms of marketing of the Controller’s own services, including maintaining fanpage-type websites, answering your questions and organizing promotions and other types of corporate events – in such case the basis for processing is your consent and/or the necessity of processing your personal data for the performance of the contract and the fulfillment of the Controller’s legitimate interest, which is to be considered marketing of its own services.
  • carry out a recruitment process, i.e. to collect applications for a given position, conduct meetings with the candidate and select a candidate who meets the requirements of the offer on the basis of your consent or activities aimed at concluding a contract with you.
  • purposes related to safety and security: we use your information to detect, prevent and respond to potential or actual security incidents and to monitor and protect against other malicious or illegal activities on our service.
  • protect our legitimate business and legal interests and to protect our own claims, as well as to defend ourselves against possible claims, to exchange correspondence. In this case the basis of processing is our legitimate interest of the Controller, which we consider to be the fulfillment of the Controller’s statutory activities.
  • profiling, which helps us to adjust the information sent to you. In practice, this is segmenting of users of the site based on the data collected on the website, e.g. if you have read an article related to a certain content, we may display you an advertisement related to such content. We base this on your activities undertaken on the site, interests, position, age range and geographic location. The basis for processing is our legitimate interest of the Controller, which we consider to be the fulfillment of the Controller’s statutory activities

How we store and secure the data we collect

This looks different in each process. If you want to know exactly the storage times look at the information clauses tab.

How to take exercise the rights granted to you by GDPR?

Depending on the specific processing activity, you have a corresponding catalog of rights that you may be entitled to. These include:

  2. the right to rectify data,
  3. the right to erasure of data,
  4. the right to restrict processing,

Transfers of data outside the European Economic Area (EEA)

International transfers of the personal data we collect

In most cases, your personal data will not be transferred to a third country/international organization outside the EEA. In case of the provision of a newsletter service, personal data may be transferred to a third country, among others, to the USA. In any such case, we verify the provider to ensure adequate standards of personal data protection and enter into Standard Contractual Clauses with the provider, which is one of the measures for secure data transfer.

In the case of servicing certain clients, personal data, including the personal data of their employees, may be transferred to another Grant Thornton International affiliate located in a third country. Safeguards for such transfer are Standard Contractual Clauses, which are an appendix to the Inter Firm Agreement operating within Grant Thornton International.
