In the event of a deletion request based on an objection, the Controller shall delete the data without delay, unless retention is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
  • Data transfer: during processing, the Controller uses HubSpot, Inc. as a processor for storing the data and operating the CRM. HubSpot’s processing is carried out in accordance with the GDPR rules applicable in the EU, on the basis of contractual safeguards provided by HubSpot, such as an EU-level data processing agreement and standard contractual clauses (SCCs).

The camera recordings are processed exclusively by the owner/operator of the building for the purposes and under the conditions set out in its own privacy notice.

No camera surveillance takes place in the areas related to the Company’s operations, meaning on the office floor or inside the office, and the Company does not carry out processing for such purposes.

Access to personal data in relation to camera recordings may occur only in exceptional cases, such as a legal dispute, security incident or authority procedure, in accordance with the procedure of the building operator, in compliance with the applicable laws, or in the case of explicit and voluntary consent.

Information on the processing relating to camera surveillance in the building, the retention period of the recordings and the provisions relating to data subject rights are contained in the separate privacy notice published by the building operator.

In accordance with its policies and the applicable data protection requirements, the Controller ensures, through information security measures, that the Data Subject’s personal data are protected, among other things, against unauthorised access, unauthorised alteration and deletion, and takes the necessary measures to prevent damage to the data.

Personal data are stored at the Controller’s registered office in paper form and electronically. The Controller ensures the physical protection of both paper-based and electronically stored data, and the latter are also protected by password protection.

In order to ensure the security of IT systems, the Controller protects the IT systems with a firewall and, in order to prevent external and internal data loss, uses antivirus and anti-malware software in the O365 system. The Controller makes daily backups of electronically stored data. The Controller stores the backups on its own server.

The Controller ensures that unauthorised persons cannot access, disclose, transmit, modify or delete the processed data. The processed data may be accessed only by the Controller’s employees, assigned according to job roles, to the extent necessary, in a specified manner and according to authorisation levels, and by the processors engaged by the Controller. Persons with access to personal data are subject to confidentiality obligations in relation to the Data Subject’s personal data.

10. MANAGEMENT OF PERSONAL DATA BREACHES

The Controller takes all measures to avoid personal data breaches. A personal data breach is a breach of security resulting in the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure of, or unauthorised access to, personal data transmitted, stored or otherwise processed. The Controller reports a personal data breach to the Hungarian National Authority for Data Protection and Freedom of Information without delay, unless the personal data breach is unlikely to result in a risk to the rights and freedoms of Data Subjects. The Controller keeps records of personal data breaches, together with the measures related to each breach. If the breach is serious, meaning it is likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of the Data Subject, the Controller informs the Data Subject of the personal data breach without undue delay.

Any person who detects a personal data breach as described above in relation to personal data processed by the Controller may report it to the Controller using any of the contact details provided in this Notice.

11. RIGHTS RELATED TO DATA PROCESSING

11.1 Right to request information (based on Articles 13–14 of the GDPR)

The Data Subject may request information in writing from the Controller on:

  • which of their personal data are processed, for what processing purpose, on what legal basis, for how long and from what source;
  • whether a processor is used and, if so, the name and address of any processor and its activity related to processing;
  • to whom, when, on what legal basis and regarding which personal data the Controller granted access or to whom it transferred the personal data;
  • the circumstances and effects of any personal data breach and the measures taken to remedy it.

The Controller shall comply with the Data Subject’s request within no more than 30 days by sending a response letter to the contact details provided in the request. If the request is sent to the Controller electronically, the Controller’s response shall also, where possible, be provided electronically.

11.2 Right of access (based on Article 15 of the GDPR)

The Data Subject has the right to obtain confirmation from the Controller as to whether personal data concerning them are being processed and, where such processing is taking place, has the right to access the personal data processed.

The Controller shall provide the Data Subject with a copy of the personal data undergoing processing, unless this is prevented by another legal provision. If the Data Subject submitted the request electronically, the information shall be provided in a commonly used electronic format, unless the Data Subject requests otherwise.

11.3 Right to rectification and completion (based on Article 16 of the GDPR)

The Data Subject may request in writing that the Controller amend any of their personal data, for example the Data Subject may change their email address or postal contact details at any time, or may request that the Controller rectify any inaccurate personal data processed by the Controller.

Taking into account the purposes of the processing, the Data Subject has the right to request the completion of incomplete personal data.

The Controller shall comply with the request within no more than 30 days and shall inform the Data Subject by email or letter sent to the contact details provided by the Data Subject.

11.4 Right to erasure (based on Article 17 of the GDPR)

The Data Subject may request in writing that the Controller erase their personal data without undue delay where one of the grounds specified in Article 17 of the GDPR applies.

The Data Subject has the right to have the Controller erase the personal data concerning them without undue delay if the processing has no purpose, if the Data Subject has withdrawn their consent and there is no other legal basis for the processing, if in the case of an objection there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, if the data have been unlawfully processed, or if the data must be erased for compliance with a legal obligation.

11.5 Right to blocking/restriction of processing (based on Article 18 of the GDPR)

The Data Subject may request in writing that the Controller block their personal data by clearly marking the restricted nature of the processing and ensuring that the data are handled separately from other data. Blocking shall last as long as the reason indicated by the Data Subject makes the storage of the data necessary.

The Data Subject may request the blocking of data, for example, if they believe that the Controller has processed the data unlawfully but, for the purposes of an authority or court procedure initiated by the Data Subject, it is necessary that the Controller not delete the data. In this case, until the authority or court contacts the Controller, the Controller shall continue to store the personal data and shall subsequently delete them. The Data Subject may also request blocking if they contest the accuracy of the personal data, in which case the restriction applies for the period enabling the Controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data. It may also be requested if the Controller no longer needs the personal data for processing purposes but the Data Subject requires them for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

11.6 Right to data portability (based on Article 20 of the GDPR)

The Data Subject may request in writing to receive the personal data concerning them, which they have provided to the Controller, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, and has the right to transmit those data to another controller without hindrance from the Controller, where:

  • the processing is based on consent pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR or Article 9(2)(a), or
  • the processing is based on a contract pursuant to Article 6(1)(b); and
  • the processing is carried out by automated means.

11.7 Right to object (based on Article 21 of the GDPR)

The Data Subject may object in writing to the processing of their personal data under Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, where processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by the Controller or by a third party. In such a case, the Controller shall no longer process the personal data unless the Controller demonstrates compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights and freedoms of the Data Subject, or which are related to the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

11.8 Right to withdraw consent (based on Article 7(3) GDPR)

The Data Subject has the right to withdraw their consent at any time. Withdrawal of consent shall not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal. It must be possible to withdraw consent as easily as it was given.

12. ENFORCEMENT AND LEGAL REMEDIES RELATED TO DATA PROCESSING

If the Data Subject considers that the Controller does not act lawfully in the processing of their personal data, the Controller requests that the Data Subject in all cases first communicate their comment or claim to the Controller, using the contact details indicated earlier in this Notice, in order to handle the comment as quickly and effectively as possible.
