    • The right to data rectification and erasure. If you find that your data is incomplete or inaccurate, you can contact the DPO and we will look into your case. You can also ask us to remove your data. We will be able to do this if there are no other legal acts that oblige us to keep the data.

    Please note that in order to exercise your rights, we will need to establish your identity. Also, if a request is of a large volume, we may charge a fee for its fulfilment.

    When the Institution acts as a data processor, we follow the data controller’s instructions and the provisions of the data processing agreement.

    You are responsible for ensuring that the data you provide to us is accurate, correct and complete. If the data you have provided changes, you must inform us immediately by email. We will not be liable in any event for any damage caused to you as a result of you providing incorrect or incomplete personal data or failing to inform us of any changes to such data.

  • 10. TO WHOM AND WHEN CAN WE TRANSFER YOUR DATA?

    We may transfer your personal data when:

    • You have given your consent to the transfer;
    • We must do so in the manner prescribed by laws when required by a public authority / law enforcement body / pre-trial investigation authority, court or their representatives, when suspecting a criminal offence, in the event of a dispute, e.g., by the STI, the Centre of Registers, the FCIS, the Police, the Disputes Commission, criminal intelligence authorities, etc.
    • We use a data processor or partners for certain data processing operations:
      • audit firms;

If it is necessary to transfer data to other countries, we may rely on the European Commission’s adequacy decision (if the European Commission decides that the adequate level of data protection is ensured in the specific country where the data recipient is established and/or carries out its business). Other mechanisms may also be used to ensure adequate data protection, such as standard contractual clauses enshrined in legal acts regulating personal data protection.
