3. Purposes and legal bases of processing
- providing the Service - Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (necessary for performance of the contract);

- delivering notifications (email, web push, in-app) solely on the basis of individual User preferences available in the Profile;
- compliance with legal obligations of the Controller - Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR.
4. Data retention period
Personal data is retained for the duration of the Account. Upon Account deletion, identification data is anonymised, while historical links to completed Requests remain in the database to preserve the integrity of ratings and settlements. Verification documentation attachments are removed 90 days after the decision, raw HTML references - after 30 days.
5. Data recipients
Technical data may be transferred to entities providing hosting, S3-compatible object storage, email-delivery and push-notification infrastructure to the Controller. All recipients act on the basis of data-processing agreements. Data is not transferred to third countries outside the EEA without ensuring appropriate safeguards.
6. User rights (GDPR)
The User has the right to:
- access their data and obtain a copy - a full data export is available in "Profile" → "My data" (the "Download my data" button);
- request rectification of data - directly from the profile editor;
- deletion of data ("right to be forgotten") - the "Delete account" button in "My data"; deletion is irreversible;
- restriction of processing, data portability and the right to object;
- withdraw consent to specific notification channels at any time (the preferences matrix in the Profile);
- lodge a complaint with the President of the Personal Data Protection Office.
7. Cookies and similar technologies
The Service uses only cookies and local storage strictly necessary for operation (e.g. session token, notification settings). We do not use third-party marketing or profiling cookies. The consent banner allows confirmation of acquaintance with the rules; non-acceptance does not restrict access to informational content of the Service.
8. Security
Communication with the Service is over TLS. Passwords are not used - login relies on one-time email codes (OTP), optionally reinforced by a second factor (TOTP). Chat attachments are available exclusively via short-lived signed URLs (presigned URL).
9. Changes to the Policy
The Controller may amend the Policy. The current version is always available at this page address; material changes will be communicated to the email address associated with the Account 14 days in advance.
