Foundation – direct marketing of our products or services), in
accordance with the Polish law, in particular in compliance with the
Personal Data Protection Act of August 29, 1997. The collection of

secure server of the Foundation and in the professional
GetResponse.com system, which provides us with the service of
professional newsletter delivery. Full access to the database is
available only to a small number of authorized employees and
subcontractors of the Foundation who administer the database
(including the IT company and Getresponse.com). As the personal data
administrator of the users of our websites, we may contractually

foreign entities, pursuant to Article 31 of the Personal Data
Protection Act of August 29, 1997.

is no longer used.

their personal data in a different way, is given access to the data
concerning them in order to verify, modify, or delete it. Providing
