The Website uses Google Analytics, which is an online web statistics and web analytics tool that gives insight into the Website's data traffic, provided by Google. We use this tool to create statistics for the purpose of adapting the content of our web pages to Users' preferences and continuously optimising them.

The transfer of personal data in such a case is based on the standard contractual clauses concluded by the Controller with the tool provider. We encourage you to read the contents of the agreement on the processing of personal data, including the content of the standard contractual clauses constituting a part of it.

Facebook's business tools.

In connection with the use of Facebook's business tools, we and Facebook serve as joint controllers within the meaning of Article 26(1) of GDPR, based on agreements between the joint controllers entered into for the purpose of defining the respective responsibilities within the scope of ensuring compliance with the obligations under GDPR. In accordance with these arrangements, we are responsible for providing you with the following information:

The use of business tools constitutes pursuit of the legitimate interests of the Controller and our trusted partners (Article 6(1)(f) of the RODO), consisting in conducting marketing activities (behavioural advertising) and measuring the effectiveness of advertisements.

For more information on data processing, see Facebook's Data Policy (including information that Facebook is a Joint Controller, information required by Article 13(1)(a) and (b) of GDPR, information on how Facebook processes data, the legal grounds, and how to enforce data subjects' rights against Facebook) at this link: https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy.

Facebook is responsible for ensuring that the rights of data subjects are enforced in accordance with Articles 15-20 of GDPR with respect to personal data stored by Facebook after joint processing.

Facebook also acts as our processor and may transfer personal data outside the European Economic Area. The transfer of personal data may take place on the basis of an adequacy decision (regarding appropriate degree of protection) taken by the European Commission or on the basis of standard contractual clauses in accordance with the European Commission's decision, or on the basis of your explicit consent.

In connection with the transfer of data to the United States, the Controller has taken care to use only suppliers that provide guarantees of a high degree of protection of personal data. These guarantees derive, in particular, from suppliers' participation in the   "EU-US Data Privacy Framework" program, established under the Commission (EU) Decision of 10th July 2023, stating that an adequate level of personal data protection is provided by the so-called "EU-US Data Privacy Framework."

You can manage your privacy settings from your Facebook account.
