The Data Controller processes personal data in compliance with the Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, and repealing Directive 95/46/EC (General Data Protection Regulation; hereinafter referred to as “GDPR”), and in compliance with relevant national personal data protection legislation.

The Data Controller only collects and processes personal data in compliance with the specified purposes and to the extent and for the time necessary for the purposes specified below.

The Data Controller collects and processes the Data Subjects’ data within the following scope:

  • identification data
  • contact information
  • bank details (if provided)
  • records of communication, which may contain information about persons authorised to act on behalf of the client, including the client’s employees, provided by such persons themselves, and
  • other information that the Data Controller learns while providing legal services (in particular, information provided by the client or the adverse party, or information from public sources).

The aforementioned data may relate to the client or to any other persons affected by the provision of the legal services (adverse party, contract party, etc.).

In connection with the discharge of the Data Controller’s contractual obligations, statutory obligations (keeping tax and accounting documents on file) must be performed as well and personal data are also processed due to the Data Controller’s legitimate interests, in particular for the purpose of inspection and provability of the provided legal services, for debt collection and for filing legal claims.

Such records are filed for at least 10 years after the termination of the contractual relationship unless the law (in particular, the Act on Archiving and Record Service, Act on Legal Profession, or the GDPR) specifies that the Data Controller must keep them for a longer period of time.

2. Consent to Personal Data Processing

Personal data processing may also be based on the Data Subject’s consent to personal data processing if provided after 25 May 2018.

Unless the information herein suggests otherwise, personal data will only be made accessible to the Data Controller’s or processor’s authorised employees and only to the extent necessary for the purposes of the processing. The Data Controller does not intend to transfer any personal data to any third countries or international organisations.
