3) Cookies

Essential cookies ensure the site works properly and do not require consent. Non–essential cookies (analytics) require your prior consent. For details, see the /en/cookie-policy/Cookie Policy.

We share data only when necessary with: hosting and IT service providers, analytics provider (Google), and other processors subject to data processing agreements, as well as authorities where required by law.

You have the rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, and to object to processing based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, as well as the right to withdraw consent at any time (without affecting lawfulness before withdrawal). You can lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority (in Poland: President of the Personal Data Protection Office).

We use appropriate technical and organizational measures (TLS/SSL, access controls, backups) to protect personal data.
