We transfer your data exclusively to entities located within the European Economic Area and therefore subject to EU data protection regulations, or to those that are bound by an appropriate security standard. The transfer of data to third countries is not currently practised or planned by us.

We process your personal data only for the period necessary to fulfil the purpose of their storage or for as long as required by law, in particular until the expiry of any potential claims or the expiry of archiving obligations arising from legal provisions, including obligations relating to the retention of accounting documents.

In the case of processing personal data for the purpose of providing the newsletter service, using training registration forms, and enabling access to materials related to topics covered on the Website, your personal data will be processed for the period necessary to provide the service, until you resign from it.

In the event of processing personal data based on your consent, your data will be stored until such consent is withdrawn. You may withdraw your consent at any time, including consent to the processing of data for marketing purposes of entities cooperating with the Controller. The withdrawal of consent to processing will not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before its withdrawal.

In the case of processing your data on the basis of the Controller’s legitimate interest, the Controller will cease processing the data earlier if you effectively lodge an objection to the processing of data.
