This Privacy Policy only applies when the company processes personal data as a responsible party within the meaning of Act no. 90/2018 on personal protection and processing of personal data, for example when the company processes personal data of individuals who do business with the company, contacts who act on behalf of legal entities who do business with the company or applicants for jobs at the company.

This Privacy Policy does not cover the company's processing of personal information that takes place in connection with the provision of services to legal entities or in connection with partnership agreements.
