For What Purpose and on What Legal Basis Will We Process Your Data?

The purposes and legal bases for processing your personal data depend on the nature and reason why the Law Firm processes your personal data.

1. If you use the Law Firm’s website – your personal data will be processed to enable you to use the Website. This allows us to inform you about the profile, activities, and achievements of the Law Firm, which constitutes a legitimate interest of the data controller and serves as the legal basis for processing your personal data (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR). In this case, the legitimate interest of the Law Firm in processing your personal data also includes ensuring security related to the Website’s operation.

Possessing your personal data is neither a legal nor contractual requirement but is necessary for you to use the Website correctly. Processed data allow visitors to retrieve information from the Website’s servers, ensure proper Website functionality, and secure data belonging to the Law Firm.

2. If the Law Firm has obtained your personal data in connection with providing legal assistance (e.g., on your behalf, for companies/entities where you are employed, or for participants in cases you are involved in) – your data will be processed for legal assistance purposes, depending on the specific case the Law Firm has been engaged for (e.g., court representation, contract preparation, or legal opinions).

In such a case, your data is processed based on:

• Article 6(1)(b) GDPR, which states that processing is lawful if necessary for the performance of a contract or to take steps at your request before entering into a contract (such a contract is the engagement of the Law Firm for legal assistance);
• Article 9(2)(f) GDPR, which states that processing is lawful when necessary for establishing, exercising, or defending legal claims;
• Article 6(1)(c) and Article 9(2)(g) GDPR, which state that processing is lawful when specific legal provisions require it;
• Article 6(1)(e) and Article 9(2)(g) GDPR, which allow data processing when necessary for performing tasks in the public interest, including legal assistance provided by attorneys and legal advisers.

3. If the Law Firm has obtained your data in connection with an existing or potential employment or civil law contract, processing is necessary for contract performance or execution.

How Long Will We Retain Your Data?

Personal data will be processed as long as necessary for the described activities. Since defining a single, specific retention period is impossible, please contact us or our Data Protection Officer for details.

Who May Receive Your Data?

In accordance with applicable law, we may share your data with entities processing data on our behalf or other recipients, particularly IT service providers cooperating with the Law Firm.

Your data will not be transferred to third countries outside the EU unless required or justified, and such transfer will be conducted per legal regulations.
