How do we collect your personal data?

Where the legal basis for your personal data processing is the conclusion or fulfilment of a contractual relationship, personal data need to be provided for conclusion of the contract. Failure to provide personal data results in failure to conclude a contractual relationship. Where the legal basis for your personal data processing is our compliance with any legal obligation, your personal data need to be provided for legal purposes. Failure to provide personal data may result in failure to secure the completed task or to issue the decision you are requesting from us. Where the legal basis for your personal data processing is a legitimate interest and we use the legal basis for your personal data processing, you are obliged to tolerate this processing, but you have the right to object to it.
Where the legal basis for your personal data processing is
consent to the personal data processing, you are not obliged to provide your personal data. You are entitled to withdraw the given consent at any time. Failure to provide personal data should not have any negative and significant consequences for you, but the comfort of using some services and your information about news may be reduced.
