5. Cookies
The website uses cookies and similar technologies that store data in your browser. We divide them into three groups:
- Essential - required for the website to work. They remember your consent choices and whether you have chosen the light or the dark theme. They are set without your consent, because without them the site cannot work correctly.
- Analytics - anonymous visit statistics, with no profiling. Set only after you have given consent.
- Marketing - tailoring content and measuring the effectiveness of promotional activity. Set only after you have given consent.
You can withdraw your consent at any time - withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out before it was withdrawn. You can change the settings with the button below or with the ‘Cookie settings’ link in the footer of every page. You can also delete and block cookies in your browser settings - some features of the website may then behave differently.
6. Data recipients
Data may be accessed by the providers that handle technical services for us, only to the extent necessary to carry out the tasks entrusted to them:
- the website hosting provider,
- the email provider,
- the analytics tool provider - only after you have consented to visit statistics.
Data is not transferred outside the European Economic Area. If we introduce a tool in future that involves such a transfer, information about it and about the basis for the transfer will be added to this policy before the tool goes live.
7. How long we keep data
| Data | Retention period |
|---|---|
| Form and email correspondence | Up to 12 months after the matter is closed and, in the event of a dispute, until any claims become time-barred |
