The data controller is VON ZANTHIER & DACHOWSKI Kancelaria Prawnicza sp. k. with its registered office in Poznań (ul. Garbary 56, 61-758 Poznań, telephone: +48 61 858 25 50 , email: poznan@vonzanthier.pl ) (hereinafter referred to as "VON ZANTHIER & DACHOWSKI", "we" or "us").

Your IP address is processed. The processing is carried out for the purpose of displaying the contents of the website to you. The legal basis for the processing of the data is the protection of legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 (1) lit. f EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) as well as the processing for the implementation of pre-contractual measures pursuant to Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR, insofar as you request this.

The legitimate interest referred to in Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR consists in the fact that third parties (Internet server operators) must be involved in transmissions via websites for technical reasons. Without the involvement of third parties, it is not possible to display the content in your Internet browser. The involvement of third parties is limited to those directly involved in the communication process.

Your internet browser may also send us additional data without our prompting, such as the date and time of access or the name and URL of the file accessed, as well as data about your system, e.g. browser type and version, operating system used, the name of the access provider if you clicked on a hyperlink on a third-party site that refers to our website, the address of this third-party site ("referrer") and the name of your computer. This information is temporarily stored in a so-called log file. This data is processed for the following purposes: to ensure a smooth connection to the website, to ensure comfortable use of our website, and to evaluate system security and stability. The legal basis for the processing of the data is the protection of legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

The legitimate interest referred to in Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR consists in our desire to offer you a secure, functional and user-friendly website.

VON ZANTHIER & DACHOWSKI will delete the data immediately after the conclusion of the contact with you, unless otherwise specified below. If you request deletion beforehand, the data will be deleted immediately, unless there is another legal basis for processing.

The website is managed by 3st kommunikation GmbH, Taunusstraße 59-61, 55118 Mainz, on behalf of DIRO AG, Große Bleichen 32, 20354 Hamburg, as a so-called further processor of commissioned data in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR.

The data subject has the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to their particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning them which is carried out by us on the basis of legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR); this also applies to profiling based on these provisions.

6a. LinkedIn

Law Firm’s LinkedIn Profile

• The controller of the personal data processed in connection with operating our LinkedIn profile (hereinafter: the “Profile”) is VON ZANTHIER & DACHOWSKI Kancelaria Prawnicza sp. k. (the “Law Firm”). A separate controller of the data is also the owner of the platform – LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company – which processes users’ data in accordance with its own privacy policy and terms and conditions.

• Our Profile is public in nature – publicly available content (e.g. posts, comments) may be visible to other users of the platform and to third parties browsing content on the internet. Users visiting the Profile may view comments and materials that you make available there.

• By visiting our Profile, you make available to us, among other things, your account name, the content of comments and reactions, online identifiers, and the IP address of your device; the scope of data visible to us depends on your account privacy settings.

• We process this data for the purpose of operating the Profile, communicating with users, informing them about our initiatives (including events and recruitment), and building relationships with our audience. The legal basis is our legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR) in promoting our activities and maintaining ongoing communication with users. We also process data for the purpose of pursuing claims or defending against claims.

• With regard to the use of statistical/analytical tools made available by the platform, joint controllership may apply to the Law Firm and LinkedIn (e.g. LinkedIn Page Analytics), while the details of such processing are governed by the rules of that platform.

• We store data only for as long as necessary to achieve the purposes of processing.

• Recipients of the data may include:

• entities providing services to us (e.g. processors), to the extent necessary to carry out our instructions under relevant agreements;

• the owner of the LinkedIn platform – in accordance with its privacy policy;

• other users of the platform visiting our Profile (with regard to public content).

• Data processing on social media platforms is international in nature. The transfer of data by particular platforms outside the EEA takes place on the basis of standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission or on the basis of adequacy decisions – in accordance with the processing principles set out by the relevant platform in its privacy policy. Information controlled by LinkedIn will be transferred to or transmitted to the United States or other countries outside the user’s place of residence, or may be stored or processed there for the purposes described in its privacy policy (more information: https://www.linkedin.com/help/linkedin/answer/a1343190/?trk=microsites-frontend_legal_privacy-policy&lang=en

). The level of protection of personal data outside the European Economic Area (EEA) differs from that guaranteed under European law. However, the United States has entered into an agreement with the EU (the Data Privacy Framework), under which organisations certified by the U.S. Department of Commerce are regarded as providing an adequate level of protection. LinkedIn has obtained the above certification.

• At any time, you have the right to request access to your data, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability, as well as the right to object in cases provided for by law, and the right to lodge a complaint with the President of the Personal Data Protection Office.

Advertising and marketing activities on LinkedIn

• In connection with our promotional activities, we may use LinkedIn advertising tools, including the LinkedIn Insight Tag, provided by LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland (“LinkedIn”). This tool enables us to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns run on LinkedIn, analyse user actions after they click on a LinkedIn ad and visit our website, create audience groups for remarketing activities, and obtain aggregated statistical information about the recipients of our advertisements.

• In connection with the use of the LinkedIn Insight Tag, the following data in particular may be processed: the URL of the visited page, the referring URL, IP address, date and time of the visit, information about the device and browser, and information about user activity on the website. According to LinkedIn, directly identifying data is deleted within 7 days, and the remaining pseudonymised data is deleted within 180 days.

• Our use of marketing cookies/identifiers (including activation of the Insight Tag) is based on your prior voluntary consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR). Consent may be withdrawn at any time in the cookie settings, without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before its withdrawal.

• With regard to statistics/analytics created using the provider’s tools, joint controllership with LinkedIn may apply to the extent that the purposes and means of processing are jointly determined (e.g. analytical modules made available to administrators of pages/profiles); details and the allocation of roles result from the solutions adopted on the LinkedIn platform.

• The recipient of the data is LinkedIn (as the provider of the tool and operator of the platform) – in accordance with its privacy policy. Transfers of data by the platform may be cross-border and take place outside the EEA, using standard contractual clauses or adequacy decisions in accordance with the rules of that platform. More information about LinkedIn’s data processing principles can be found in LinkedIn’s privacy policy and LinkedIn’s cookie policy.

• If the user makes use of a contact/lead form made available as part of an advertisement on LinkedIn, we process the data voluntarily provided by the user for the purpose of contacting the user, presenting information about our services, sending informational materials, or initiating discussions regarding potential cooperation. The scope of the data depends on the content of the form and may include, in particular, first and last name, email address, telephone number, company name, position, and other professional data provided by you. The specific purpose of the data processing is indicated each time in the content of the relevant form.

• You have the following rights: the right of access to your data, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability, the right to object to processing – in cases specified by law – and the right to lodge a complaint with the President of the Polish Data Protection Office.

If you are logged in there, the platform can assign the visit to your user account. The processing of data on the platforms' websites is governed exclusively by their privacy policies.
