VII. Automated Decision-making and Profiling
We would like to inform that your personal data allow us to make automated decisions, including profiling.
We do not use your data to make any automated decisions about you which could affect your legal rights.
The profiling we perform takes place when at least one of the following actions is being analyzed – active interaction with the content posted by the Organization, website activity, form of support (including membership fees and donations), first name and/or postal code provided voluntarily. Profiling allows us to adjust the frequency of our contact with you and send you content that fits your preferences. In case of membership fees, profiling helps us verify the list of our active supporting members and fulfill our obligations to provide information about events held by the Organization near you.
Automated decision-making is based on customizing the content we provide and, in some cases, categorizing our users’ profiles, e.g. in accordance with their involvement in the Organization.
Automated decision-making is compliant with the law as profiling does not take place without the user being informed about it or is essential to signing contracts with our users and performing the stipulations mentioned therein, such as determining the amount of overdue fees.
Aforementioned decisions should not significantly affect your situation as they are not legally effective. The only consequences of our profiling are that you receive customized messages and your supporting member status may be changed.
If you disagree with our decision, you have every right to object, e.g. by filing a complaint. In order to do that, please contact us at iod@otwarteklatki.pl and provide the reason(s) why you think our decision was wrong. We will make sure that your complaint is investigated by an authorized person (such submissions are not handled by any IT systems).
Like the majority of organizations, we use services provided by third parties that often require us to share your personal data. For that reason, your personal data may be processed by the following entities:
In addition, it may happen that, on the basis of the applicable law or a decision issued by a competent authority, we have to share your data with other public or private entities. Thus, it is very difficult for us to predict who may request your personal data. However, we would like to ensure our users that every request is thoroughly examined so that your data is not accidently shared with anyone who is unauthorized.
The Organization never sells or rents your personal data or any details regarding our website visits and traffic patterns.
IX. Sharing Personal Data with Third Countries
We would like to inform that, in accordance with the statutory activities of the Organization and/or provision of its services, we may share your personal data with entities outside the European Economic Area.
The GDPR introduces certain limitations to sharing personal data with third countries as they do not adopt European laws and may therefore compromise the safety of the personal data of European citizens. For that reason, each administrator of personal data is obliged to identify the legal basis of every share.
In our case, your personal data may be shared with the USA and/or Switzerland.
The processors of personal data whose services we use are all participants in the EU-US Privacy Shield program created for the purposes of sharing data between the European Union and the USA. Tresorit, one of our service providers registered outside the European Economic Area in Switzerland, has pledged to meet all the requirements pertaining to the processors of personal data specified by the GDPR.
In relation to our cooperation with entities participating in the Privacy Shield program, we would like to inform that when sharing your personal data with the USA and Switzerland we do not employ any protective measures specified by the GDPR, including binding corporate rules or standard contractual clauses.
In case of sharing your personal data with third countries which, according to the European Commission, do not meet minimum requirements of the personal data protection, we share your data only after having received your explicit and voluntary consent. Considering the circumstances, however, we cannot guarantee that your personal data will be sufficiently secured. Sharing your data with any third country always poses certain risks.
If you feel concerned about our ways of sharing your data, we are more than happy to provide further explanation on our privacy policy.
X. Period of Storage of Personal Data
In accordance with the applicable law, we do not process your personal data indefinitely. We do that for as long as it is necessary for us to achieve our objective (e.g. carry out a recruitment process). After that period, your personal data are permanently removed or destroyed.
We would like to inform that you have the right to:
We respect your rights resulting from the provisions on the protection of personal data and do our best to utilize them.
Nevertheless, we would like to emphasize that these rights are not absolute and can therefore be legally overruled. If it happens that we reject your request, we can ensure that we do so only after having analyzed your case thoroughly, and when such rejection is imperative.
When it comes to your right to object, you are legally entitled to object to the processing of your personal data on the basis of the legitimate interest of the Administrator of Personal Data (described in point III) and in relation to your particular situation. However, in accordance with the applicable law, we may refuse to accept your objection if we succeed to prove either of the following:
There are reasonable grounds for processing your data, which take precedence over your interests, rights and freedoms;
There are grounds for establishing, vindicating or defending our claims.
Moreover, you always have the right to object to the processing your data for our marketing purposes. We will stop processing your data in this way immediately after having received your objection.

In the absence of specific provisions in this Privacy Policy, the provisions of on the protection of personal data are applicable.
