Technical data and information from cookies are processed only to the extent necessary to:

  • ensure the proper functioning of the Service,
  • maintain system security,
  • diagnose and resolve technical issues.

3. Purposes of Personal Data Processing

Users' personal data is processed in the Service only to the extent and for the purposes necessary to provide the services offered by the Service, specifically:

  1. Service Provision
    • enabling the Client (company) to manage its own users,
    • enabling Users to use the functionalities assigned to their accounts, including notifications and access to Service content.
  2. Account Management and Authorization
    • maintaining the correctness and integrity of Client and User accounts,
    • in the case of login implementation: ensuring access security and authorization.

    • providing technical assistance and support in using the Service based on Client or User data.

4. Legal Basis for Personal Data Processing

The processing of Users' personal data in the Service is based on the provisions of GDPR, specifically:

  1. Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR – necessity for the performance of a contract

    Users' data is processed to the extent necessary to provide the Service's services to the Client (company) and to perform the functionalities assigned to user accounts.

  2. Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR – legitimate interests of the controller or processor

    Technical data, including information about the device, sessions, and potential IP addresses, are processed to ensure the security of the Service, monitor system correctness, diagnose technical problems, and prevent abuse. Legitimate interest also includes the ability to provide technical support to Users.

  3. Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR – legal obligation

    To the extent that the Service is obliged to comply with legal obligations (e.g., retaining data necessary for the Client's tax or accounting purposes), processing is carried out to fulfill these obligations.

5. Data Retention Period

Client (company) data is stored for the entire duration of the Service provision. If the Client ceases to use the services, the Client's and directly assigned Users' data is additionally stored for a period of up to 6 months to enable potential re-use of the Service and retain activity history. After this period, the Client's and Users' data is permanently and irreversibly deleted or anonymized, and recovery is not possible.

Users' data is stored as long as the Client uses the Service. This means that if the User's cooperation with the Client ends (e.g., termination of the employment contract, end of contractual cooperation), the User may lose access to the system, but the history of their activity in the Service remains preserved for the Client's needs, in accordance with their business requirements.

Technical data and system logs are stored only to the extent necessary to ensure the security of the Service and to diagnose and resolve technical problems, for no longer than is necessary to achieve these purposes.

6. Rights of Users and Clients

Users have the right to:

  1. Access to data – the right to request information from the controller (Client) about the personal data being processed concerning the User, including the purpose, scope, and storage period.
  2. Rectification of data – the right to request the controller (Client) to correct or complete inaccurate or incomplete personal data.
  3. Erasure of data ("right to be forgotten") – the right to request the controller (Client) to erase personal data, unless there are other justified grounds for their storage.

    Depending on the Client's business needs, the data erasure operation may be carried out in one of two variants:

    1. Irreversible deletion of the User's account along with the entire history of their activity in the Service.
    2. Anonymization of the User's account, as a result of which personal data is no longer linked to a specific person, allowing the preservation of activity history in the system, according to the Client's requirements.

    The Service Administrator carries out these operations solely based on the Client's instruction, who is the personal data controller for the Users.

  4. Restriction of processing – the right to request the controller (Client) to restrict the processing of data in cases provided for by GDPR.
  5. Objection to data processing – the right to object to the processing of personal data in cases provided for by GDPR.
  6. Complaint to the supervisory authority – the right to lodge a complaint with the President of the Personal Data Protection Office if it is considered that the processing of personal data violates the provisions of GDPR.
