INFORMATION NOTICE on PERSONAL DATA

  1. WHO IS THE CONTROLLER OF YOUR DATA?

The data controller is the Organizer of the Contest, namely:

RTCLab sp. z o.o., with its registered office in Gdańsk at al. Grunwaldzka 212, 80-266 Gdańsk, entered into the register of entrepreneurs of the National Court Register kept by the District Court Gdańsk-Północ in Gdańsk, VII Commercial Division of the National Court Register under number KRS 0000613170, with share capital of PLN 50,000 and tax ID (NIP): 5842748894

  1. WHY DO WE PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA?

The primary purpose for which we process your personal data is the organization and execution of the Contest, including handling complaints and claims.

The basis for processing your data is the agreement (comprising the Contest Rules) entered into by submitting an entry to the Contest.

We will also process your data for accounting, tax, and archiving purposes. In such cases, the basis for processing your data will be legal regulations that require us to process data for accounting and tax purposes.

We will also process the collected data for the purpose of pursuing our rights and defending against claims, in which case the basis for processing your data will be the legitimate interest of the data controller.

We may also process your data for our own direct marketing purposes, which will also be based on our legitimate interest as the data controller.

Should new purposes for data processing arise, we will inform you accordingly.

  1. ARE YOU REQUIRED TO PROVIDE YOUR PERSONAL DATA?

For the conclusion and performance of the agreement (Contest Rules), we collect only the data necessary to perform the agreement. Failure to provide the data necessary to conclude and perform the agreement will make it impossible for us to enter into or perform the agreement with you. This also applies to data we must collect due to legal obligations (e.g. data for invoices).

If we collect your data based on your consent, such consent is entirely voluntary. Lack of consent will result in failure to take the actions specified in our request for consent.

  1. TO WHOM WILL WE DISCLOSE YOUR DATA?

Recipients of your data will include:

  1. The Contest Organizer;
  2. Authorized employees and associates of the Organizer, to whom your personal data will be disclosed in order to fulfill their duties;
  3. Entities that the Organizer contracts to process your personal data on our behalf (processors), such as tax advisors, law firms, advertising agencies;
  4. Other data recipients – e.g., Organizer’s partners, sponsors, banks, courier companies, telecommunication companies, companies in our capital group;
  5. Public authorities, including tax offices, the police, and law enforcement agencies, in connection with their proceedings.
  6. HOW LONG WILL WE KEEP YOUR DATA?

The data retention period is linked to the purposes and bases of the processing.

Your personal data resulting from the conclusion of an agreement, service execution or warranty/guarantee will be processed for the period during which claims related to that agreement may arise, i.e., for 6 years + 12 months from the end of the year in which the agreement was performed. The above-mentioned 6 years is the possible limitation period for your claims. We have extended this period by an additional 12 months to account for claims made at the last moment or problems with delivery, and counting from the end of the year allows us to set a single deletion date for agreements ending in a given year.

Data processed for marketing purposes, including direct marketing of our products and services, will be processed until you object or withdraw your consent, but not longer than 3 years from your last contact with us.

Data processed for accounting, tax and archiving purposes will be stored for 6 years from the end of the year in which the Contest concluded.

If we acquire any rights from you (e.g. copyright or a license), then we will process your data for the entire period during which we hold or use that right.

After the above periods, your personal data will be deleted or anonymized.

  1. WHAT RIGHTS DO YOU HAVE IN CONNECTION WITH OUR PROCESSING OF YOUR DATA?

You have a number of rights in relation to our processing of your data, including:

  1. The right to request access to your personal data and the right to have it corrected, deleted (“the right to be forgotten”), or the processing restricted;
  2. The right to object to the processing of personal data for direct marketing purposes, which will result in us stopping such processing for direct marketing;
  3. The right to object, for reasons related to your particular situation, if the data is processed on the basis of the legitimate interest of the controller. However, we will continue to process personal data if we have a justified reason;
  4. The right to data portability for data processed in connection with the execution of the agreement or based on your consent;
  5. If the basis for processing is your consent, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

You can exercise the above rights:

  1. by emailing: [email protected]
  2. by traditional mail sent to the Organizer's address,
  3. directly at the Organizer’s registered office.
