§ 2. Protection of privacy and personal data
Data concerning Users is processed by the Owner in accordance with legal provisions. Personal data of Users obtained by the Owner is processed on the basis of consent given by the User or the occurrence of another premise authorising the processing of data under the provisions, in particular the Regulation.
The Owner takes particular care to protect the interests of the persons to whom the data relates, and in particular ensures that this data is:
- processed lawfully, fairly and in a transparent manner for Customers and other persons to whom the data relates;
- collected for specified, explicit and legitimate purposes and not further processed in a manner incompatible with those purposes;
- adequate, relevant and limited to what is necessary for the purposes for which it is processed;
- accurate and, where necessary, kept up to date;
- kept in a form which permits identification of the data subject for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which the data is processed;
- processed in a manner that ensures appropriate security of personal data, including protection against unauthorised or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction or damage, using appropriate technical or organisational measures.
The Owner applies appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure a level of protection of processed personal data appropriate to the nature, scope, context and purposes of processing, as well as the risk of a breach of the rights or freedoms of natural persons.
The Owner strives to systematically modernise the IT, technical and organisational measures used to protect this data; in particular, the Owner ensures updates to the IT security measures to protect against viruses, unauthorised access and other threats arising from the operation of the IT system and telecommunications networks.
For every User who has in any way provided their data to the Owner, the Owner ensures access to the data and the exercise of other rights of data subjects, in accordance with the applicable legal provisions in this regard; in particular, such persons have the right to:
- withdraw consent to the processing of personal data;
- obtain information regarding their personal data;
- control the processing of data, including its completion, updating, rectification and deletion;
- object to processing or request a restriction of processing;
- lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority and use other legal remedies to protect their rights.
The Owner may process personal data in an automated manner, including through profiling, in accordance with the principles set out in the Regulation. In such a case, the purpose of the Owner's actions is marketing or the need to personalise messages sent to Users (including matching information to the needs or expectations of the User). The User has the right to object to such processing of their data — this objection may be expressed by sending a message to the Owner's address: tom@tomtransport.pl.
A person with access to personal data processes it solely on the basis of authorisation from the Owner or a data processing agreement, and solely on the Owner's instructions.
§ 3. Cookies
Cookies identify the User, which allows the content of the website they are using to be tailored to their needs. By remembering their preferences, it enables the content directed at them, including advertisements, to be appropriately matched. The Owner uses Cookies to guarantee an appropriate level of Website comfort, and the collected data is used only within the company to optimise its operations.
Cookies are used for the purpose of:
- adapting the content of the Website to the User's preferences;
- optimising the use of the Website, in particular by recognising the User's end device;
- creating statistics;
- maintaining the User's session;
- delivering advertising content to the User.
Cookies may be placed on the User's end device.
The collected data is used to monitor and check how Users use the Website, in order to improve the Website's functioning and ensure more effective and trouble-free navigation.
It should be remembered that in some cases, independent of the Owner, software installed by the User on the end device used for browsing websites (e.g. a web browser) introduces the default storage of Cookies on the User's end device. Users may change their Cookie settings at any time. These settings may be changed, among other things, in such a way as to block the automatic setting of Cookies or to inform about their placement on the User's end device each time. Detailed information in this regard is available in the settings and instructions relating to the software (web browser).
The User has the option at any time to disable or restore the option of collecting cookies by changing the settings in the web browser.
Changing the settings constitutes an expression of objection, which may cause difficulties in using the Website in the future. Completely disabling the option to accept Cookies will not mean an inability to browse the content posted on the Website, with the exception of that to which access requires logging in.
Failure to change the settings means that data will be placed on the User's end device (using the Website will result in Cookies being automatically placed on the User's end device).
Data stored on the User's end device does not cause configuration changes on the User's end device or in software installed on that device.
Information regarding Cookies also applies to other similar technologies used within the Website.
