1. Who is responsible for your data?
The data controller for this website is Helomu, operating from aleja Niepodległości 43, Szczecin, Poland. For any question regarding how your personal data is processed, you can contact us at [email protected] or by phone at +48 914 401 177. This policy applies to visitors of helomu.info and to individuals who contact us through the forms on this site.
2. What information do we collect?
We collect the information you actively provide through the contact form, namely your name, email address, phone number, and the content of your message. We do not ask for any special categories of data, and we ask that you avoid including sensitive information in your message. Basic technical data, such as browser type and approximate location derived from IP address, may also be processed automatically as part of normal website operation, and, where you consent, through analytics cookies described in our Cookie Policy.
3. What is the legal basis for processing?
Where you submit the contact form, processing is based on your consent and on our legitimate interest in responding to inquiries about our workshops, in accordance with Article 6(1)(a) and Article 6(1)(f) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Where cookies are used for analytics or preference purposes, processing relies on your consent, which you may withdraw at any time through the cookie settings available on this site.
4. How long do we keep your data?
Contact form submissions and related correspondence are retained for as long as necessary to respond to your inquiry and for a reasonable period afterward in case of follow-up questions, typically not exceeding twenty-four months unless a longer retention period is required by Polish law, such as accounting obligations under the Polish Accounting Act. Analytics data, where consented to, is retained according to the retention settings of the relevant tool and is generally anonymized or deleted after a defined period.
5. Do we share your data with third parties?
We do not sell personal data. Limited data may be shared with service providers who support the operation of this website, such as hosting providers or analytics tools, acting as data processors under agreements consistent with Article 28 of the GDPR. We do not transfer personal data outside the European Economic Area unless an appropriate safeguard, such as Standard Contractual Clauses, is in place.
6. What are your rights?
Under the GDPR and the Polish Act on the Protection of Personal Data, you have the right to access your data, request correction or erasure, restrict or object to processing, and request data portability where applicable. You also have the right to withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal. To exercise any of these rights, contact us at [email protected].
7. Can you lodge a complaint?
If you believe your data has been processed unlawfully, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Polish supervisory authority, the Prezes Urzędu Ochrony Danych Osobowych (President of the Personal Data Protection Office, UODO), or with the supervisory authority of your habitual residence within the European Union.
8. Is providing your data mandatory?
Providing your data through the contact form is voluntary, but necessary if you wish us to respond to your inquiry. Without the required fields, name, email, phone, and message, we would not be able to process or reply to your submission.
9. Does this site use automated decision-making?
No. We do not use automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you.
10. How can this policy change?
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our practices or applicable law. The date at the top of this page indicates when it was last revised. We encourage you to review it occasionally.
