3.1 Hosting

The hosting service we use provides the following services: infrastructure and platform services, memory space, storage and database services, security and maintenance services that we use to manage the website.

Based on our legitimate interest in an effective and secure provision of our website to users in accordance with paragraph 1f of Article 6 of the GDPR in conjunction with Article 28 of the CDPR, we or our hosting provider process the inventory data, contact details, content data, contract data, website usage data, metadata and communication data of customers, stakeholders and visitors on this website.

3.2 Access data

When you use this website, we collect information about you. We automatically collect information about your behavior as a user and about your interaction with us, as well as register information about your computer or mobile device. We collect, store and use data about each visit to our website (so-called server log files). Access data includes:

  • Name and URL of the requested file
  • Search date and time
  • Transferred amount of data
  • Successful retrieval message (HTTP response code)
  • Browser type and browser version
  • Operating system
  • URL referrer (i.e. the page from which the user came to the website)
  • Websites that the user's system accesses through our website
  • User’s Internet service provider
  • IP address and requesting provider

We use log data without identifying you as an individual and without creating any profile for statistical assessments to manage, secure and optimize our website, as well as for anonymous registration of the number of visitors to our website (traffic), and degree and nature of the use of our website and services, as well as for financial reporting to measure the number of referrals made by cooperation partners. Based on this information, we can provide personalized content considering user location, analyze traffic, eliminate errors and improve the quality of our services.

This also contains our legitimate interest in accordance with paragraph 1f of Article 6 of the CDPR.

If this is necessary for security purposes or for providing services or making payments for the service, for example, if you use one of our commercial offers, we store IP addresses in log files for a limited period of time. Once the order process has been completed or the payment has been made, we will delete the IP address if it is no longer required for security purposes. Also, we store IP addresses in cases when we have a specific suspicion of having committed illegal acts in connection with the use of our website. In addition, as part of your account, we keep the date of your last visit (for example, when registering, logging in, cross-referencing, etc.).

3.3 Information files (cookies)

To optimize our website, we use the so-called session cookies. Session cookies are small text files that are sent from the appropriate servers and stored temporarily on your hard drive when you visit a website. These files contain a so-called session identifier, through which various requests from your browser can be linked in a shared session. This will allow you to recognize your computer when you re-enter our website. Once your browser is closed, these cookies will be deleted. For example, with their help you can use the shopping cart function when visiting several pages.

We also use a small amount of persistent cookies (also small text files stored on your device) that remain on your device and allow us to recognize your browser during your next visit. These cookies will be stored on your hard drive and will be deleted after a specified time. Their lifespan is from 1 month to 10 years. With the help of cookies we can present our offer to you in a more convenient, efficient and safe way, for example, to show you a page with the information corresponding to your interests.

You can configure your browser in such a way that you will be notified in advance about the forthcoming placement of cookies on your device and decide in each case whether to exclude the reception of cookies in certain cases or at all, or completely block the maintenance of cookies.

At your instruction, your account can be deleted at any time at no cost, other than the cost of data transmission in accordance with the basic tariffs. To this end, the only thing you need to do is to send a text message to the mail requisites specified in paragraph 1 (for example, by email, fax, letter). Then we will delete your personal data that we have stored, unless we need to save it for processing orders or in connection with the requirements of the storage legislation.

When you contact us (for example, through a contact form or by email), we use your data to process the request, as well as in case there are additional questions.

If data processing is carried out either to perform pre-contractual arrangements at your request or to fulfill the contract, if you are already our client, the legal basis for such data processing is paragraph 1b of Article 6 of the CDPR.
