2. in order to electronically provide the services of making the Website content available to Users – the legal basis for such processing is the necessity of processing to perform the contract (Article 6(1)(b) GDPR);

In order to carry out marketing activities, in some cases the Controller uses profiling. This means that through automatic data processing, the Controller assesses selected factors related to the Users in order to analyze their behaviors or to design future forecasts. This enables better matching of the displayed content to the individual preferences and interests of the User.

The duration of data processing by the Controller depends on the type of service provided and the purpose of processing. As a rule, the data is processed for the duration of the service, until the consent is withdrawn or an effective objection to data processing is raised in those instances where the legal basis for data processing is the Controller's legitimate interest.

The duration of data processing may be extended if the processing is necessary to establish and pursue or defend any claims, and afterwards, only if and to the extent required by law. After the lapse of the processing period, the data is irreversibly erased or anonymized.

We make every effort to notify all data subjects of the purpose of data processing, the legal basis for such processing, data retention period and any and all other information required under the GDPR in fulfilling the disclosure obligation.
