II.2. Purposes of processing and legal foundation for processing

II.2.1. Processing personal data without your agreement

These are generally situations where we are obliged to hand over certain personal data as a condition for offering you our product/service, or when we are entitled to process your personal data obtained in another manner.

  1. We are legally entitled to process your data without your agreement for the following purposes of adhering to our legal obligations, primarily
    1. To avoid the occurrence of damages to our company’s assets;
    2. To prevent fraudulent behaviour to which our company could be subjected;
    3. To fulfil any obligations when identifying and checking the client pursuant to the Act on Selected Measures against the Legitimisation of Proceeds of Crime and Financing of Terrorism;
    4. To fulfil the identification obligation in relation to the client on the basis of the Act on the Residence of Foreign Nationals.
  2. Concluding or fulfilling a contract with you.

    This primarily means the actual realisation of the contractual relationship between our company and you. The personal data is necessary, for example, to realise the contractual relationship without any excessive legal risks, including negotiations on the conclusion or change to contracts with you.
  3. The protection of rights and interests protected by law, especially for
    1. The protection of rights and interests protected by law of our company, the enforcement of receivables, the implementation of collateral or the other application of receivables, the evolution and development of the provided services;
    2. Negotiations with those interested in the transfer of our company’s receivables from the client, or another form of the transfer or assignment of receivables, including the related implementation, and other related negotiations with third parties, especially the information of providers of related collateral, etc.;
    3. The resolution of all disputes, particularly for the purpose of conducting litigation or other disputes.
  4. Our justified interests.

    These are primarily situations where a contractual/client relationship exists between you and our company.

II.2.2. Processing personal data with your agreement

These are generally situations where you voluntarily agree with us processing your personal data. On the basis of your agreement our company processes your personal data for the following purposes:

  1. Client care; these are activities that do not represent the fulfilment of contracts or other legal framework for the processing of personal data and which include the following activities:
    1. Market research;
    2. Acquiring feedback regarding the controller’s products and services;
    3. monitoring the behaviour of clients on our company’s webpages in relation to the offered services (thus, this purpose does not apply to actual acquisition of information on the behaviour of the users of our company’s webpages through cookies, which is described in the section on electronic means of communication and mobile applications below);
  2. The offer of products and services; this is primarily about the dissemination of information, offering our company’s products and services, and by various means (mail, electronic means, including e-mail and messages sent to mobile devises, telephone calls and through webpages).

The provisioning of personal data for the purpose of caring for you is our contractual requirement and not providing it can lead to not concluding the contract or not providing adequate care.

II.3. Scope of clients’ processed data

Our company processes your personal data in the scope required for the fulfilment of the aforementioned purposes. We process contact data (contact addresses, telephone numbers, e-mail and fax addresses and other similar contact data) and identification data (name, surname, date of birth, address of permanent residence, type, number and validity of identification; for entrepreneurs also the company ID number and tax ID number) and video camera recordings.

II.4. Method of processing personal data

The method by which our company processes your personal data includes manual and automated processing in our company’s information systems and in physical form.

Your personal data is primarily processed by the employees of our company and also third parties to the required extent. Before any handover of your personal data to third parties, we always conclude with this party a written contract, which includes the same guarantees for the processing of personal data as our company is required to adhere to in accordance with its legal obligations.

II.5. Recipients of personal data

Your personal data is primarily accessible to the employees of our company in connection with the fulfilment of their job obligations, during which it is necessary to handle the clients’ personal data, though only to the extent which is required in each particular case and while observing all security measures.

In addition to this, your personal data is passed on to third parties that contribute to the processing of the personal data of our company’s clients, or they can be given access to this personal data for another reason in accordance with the law.

The handover of the data is generally to:

  1. Our law firm, JUDr. Rostislava Dolečka, Attorney, Company ID No.: 662 13 011;
  2. Providers of accounting services; and
  3. Processors that provide us with server, web, cloud and IT services.

Before any handover of your personal data to a third party, we always conclude a written contract with this party, in which we regulate the processing of personal data so that it includes the same guarantees for the processing of personal data as our company adheres to in accordance with its legal obligations.

II.7. Sending personal data abroad

Your personal data is processed within the Czech Republic and is not sent to countries outside of the European Union.

II.8. Period of processing personal data

The clients’ personal data is only processed by our company for the period that is necessary with regard to the purposes of its processing. We continually assess whether the need to process certain personal data necessary for a certain purpose still remains valid. If we ascertain that it is no longer required for any of the purposes for which it was processed, we liquidate the data. Internally, however, we have assessed the normal period of use of personal data in relation to certain purposes, after the expiry of which we assess the need to process the relevant personal data for the given purpose with particular thoroughness. In this context it is also true that the personal data processed for the purpose of:

  4. The protection of rights and interests protected by law in the form of video camera recordings; the relevant personal data is usually useable for a period of thirty days.

You are not obliged to grant our company your agreement with the processing of your personal data and you are also entitled to withdraw this agreement. Please keep in mind that we are also entitled to process some personal data for certain purposes without your agreement. If you withdraw your agreement for such a case, we will end the processing of the relevant personal data for the purposes requiring the appropriate agreement, though we may be entitled or even obliged to continue to process this personal data for other purposes.
