- How long do we process your personal information?
The period for which we process your personal data depends on the purpose of the processing. Thus, respectively:

- Do we process your personal data automatically (including through profiling) in a way that affects your rights?
We do not use profiling, nor do we process your data by automated means.
- How do we process personal information?
We process personal data in accordance with applicable law, in particular in accordance with the RODO. We are mindful of the following rules that guide us in processing your personal data:
- Adequacy Rule. We process only those data that are necessary to achieve the given purpose of the processing; for each process, we have carried out an analysis to meet this rule;
- Transparency Rule. You should have full knowledge of what happens to your data. This document, in which we try to give you full information about the rules of our processing of your personal data, is a manifestation of it;
- Rule of Correctness. We strive to keep your personal information in our systems current and truthful;
- Integrity and Confidentiality Rule. We take the necessary measures to safeguard the confidentiality and integrity of your personal information. We are continually improving these as the environment changes and technology advances. Safeguards include physical and technological measures to limit access to your information, as well as appropriate measures to prevent loss of your information;
- Accountability Rule. We want to be able to account for every action we take on your personal information, so that if you ask us, we can give you full and fair information about what we did with your information.
- What rights do you have?
Data protection laws give you a number of rights that you can exercise at any time. Provided you do not abuse these rights (e.g. unreasonable daily requests for information), the exercise of these rights is free of charge to you and should be easy to exercise.
Your rights include:
- The right to access the content of your personal information. This right means that you can request that we export the information we have about you from our databases and send it to you in one of the commonly used formats (e.g. XLSX, DOCX, etc.);
- Right to rectification. If you become aware that the data we process is incorrect, you have the right to ask us to correct it and we will be obliged to do so. In this case, we have the right to ask you to provide some document or other evidence to prove that the data has been changed;
- Right to restrict processing. If, despite our compliance with the adequacy principle, you believe that we are processing too much of your personal data for a particular process, you have the right to request that we restrict this processing. Insofar as your request does not contradict requirements imposed on us by applicable law we will comply with your request;
- Right to request deletion of data. This right, also known as the right to be forgotten, means your right to request that we delete from our database systems and records any information containing your personal data. Please note that we will not be able to do so if we are obliged by law to process your data (e.g. transaction documents for tax purposes, obligation to ensure accountability of our actions). In any case, however, we will delete your personal data to the fullest extent possible and, where this is not possible, we will ensure that your data is pseudonymized (which means that the data subject cannot be identified without an appropriate linking key), so that your data, which we must retain in accordance with applicable law, will only be accessible to a very limited circle of people;
- Right to transfer your data to another data controller. Under the RODO, you can ask us to export the data you have provided to us in the course of all our contacts into a separate file for onward transfer to another data controller;
- Right to withdraw consent. If we process your personal data on the basis of your consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time. The withdrawal of consent will not affect the lawfulness of processing that we have done on the basis of consent given before its withdrawal. However, we would like to inform you that your personal data in the scope covered by the withdrawn consent, i.e. in the scope of the purpose to which the consent referred, will cease to be processed for that purpose. Nevertheless, your personal data covered by your consent will continue to be processed for the purpose of complying with our obligations under the law, including in particular our obligation to account for the correctness of the processing of your personal data, possibly for purposes based on our legitimate interests.
You may exercise the rights referred to above by contacting us at: daneosobowe@agencjafaceit.pl or by mail to: FACE IT sp. z o.o. ul. Bagatela 10 lok. 31, 00–585 Warsaw, with the note: „Personal data”.
In matters related to personal data you can also write to us, if any action or situation you encounter raises your concerns, whether it is compliant with the regulations or does not accidentally violate your rights or freedoms. In this case we will answer your questions and concerns and address the issue promptly.
If you consider that we have in any way violated the rules for processing your personal data then you have the right to lodge a complaint directly with the supervisory authority (from 25 May 2018 this is the President of the Office for Personal Data Protection). In exercising this right you should give a full description of the situation that has arisen and indicate what action you consider to have violated your rights or freedoms. The complaint should be submitted directly to the supervisory authority.
- What is the right to object?
We would like to inform you separately that you also have the right to so-called objection to the processing of your personal data. You have the right to object if you do not want us to process your personal data for a specific purpose (e.g. marketing purposes).
You also have the right to object if the processing of your personal data is based on a legitimate interest or for statistical purposes, and the objection is justified by the particular situation you are in.
In this case, we will continue to process your data for other processes (for other purposes), but no longer for the purpose for which you objected. You can report your right to object to the e‑mail address: daneosobowe@agencjafaceit.pl or by letter to: FACE IT sp. z o.o. ul. Bagatela 10 lok. 31, 00–585 Warsaw, with the note: „Personal data”.
- Is it your responsibility to provide the data?
You provide your personal data to FACE IT voluntarily. There is no law that imposes a legal obligation on you to provide it.
However, if you wish to enter into a contract with us, you must provide data that will enable us to enter into and perform that contract, as well as to properly tax and document it for FACE IT accountability purposes.
Personal data provided for e.g. contact or marketing purposes are necessary for us to contact you or to conduct marketing activities to which you agree or at least do not object. If you do not provide it, our communication with you will be either impeded (e.g. if you provide only your telephone number but not your e‑mail address) or impossible (if you do not provide any contact data).
- Do we share your data outside the EU?
No, we will transfer your data to a third country or to international organizations.
