Data control will occur upon the user’s declaration, which is voluntary, and based on adequate information. This declaration contains the user’s explicit consent that during the usage of the page, data that she granted access to, as well as data generated about her, will be used. The plea of the data control is explicit consent according to Art. 5, Section 1 a) of Act CXII of 2011 on the Right of Informational Self-Determination and on Freedom of Information.
The aim of the handling of the recorded data is publishing personalized content and advertisements, statistics, development of the IT system, protection of user rights. Data shared by users during the usage of the service can be used by the Company with the aim to construct user groups, and to show them targeted content and/or advertisements on websites that use the Application.
Controller is not allowed to use data for aims other than described above. It is also set forth in this Regulation that data transfer between Controller and its partners can be done without separate consent. Sharing of personal data to third party or authority – unless explicit law requires it – is permissible only upon resolution by an authority or with explicit and prior consent by the user.
Controller does not check personal data controlled. The person who shared the data is responsible for its validity.
Controller places a “cookie” (small piece of data) on the computer of the user, in order that personalization is possible. With the usage of the Application, the user accepts the placement of cookies on her computer.
Controller, acting as technological provider, can ensure that, during the usage of the Application or visit of a partner website, partners of Controller, especially Google Inc. store, with the help of cookies, any prior visit and that they show advertisements.
The cookie can be deleted from the user’s computer, and also set her web browser to block the usage of them.

Blocking of cookies can potentially cause websites to become less comfortable for the user.

We let the user know that the court, the prosecutor or the investigating authority can contact the Controller, for the purpose of information, data transmission, or making available documents. In this case Controller, for the authorities, when the respective authority specified the exact aim and scope of the data, shares personal data to the extent that is absolutely essential for the purposes of the investigation.
We give further notice about data control not listed in this policy at the point of data record.
5. Principles of data control

The Company, as Controller, undertakes that it will treat data acquired in accordance with provisions set forth in Infotv. and data protection principles set forth in the current Regulation and it does not transfer data to third parties.
An exception from the measures set forth in this part is usage of data in a statistically summarized form which does not contain the name of the user, or any other information from which the user can be identified. Thus, this process is not considered Data Control or Data Transfer.
The Company, in certain cases – official contact by the court or police, legal proceedings due to copyright, property right or other infringement, or their reasonable suspicion, with the aim of prejudicing the interests of the Company, or imperiling the services of the Company, etc. – makes data concerning the user available for third parties.
The system of the Company can gather data about the activity of the user, data that cannot be connected with data given by the user at the time of registration, nor with data generated by visiting other websites or using other services.
The user should be informed about the aim of Data Control and about who treats or processes their data. Information about Data Control is considered adequate when a law rules about existing Data Control – data record by means of forwarding or connecting.
Each case when the Company intends to use data for purposes other than that was specified at the initial data record, it informs the User and receives her explicit consent, or provides her with the opportunity to deny usage.
The Company, as Controller, respects the regarding limitations set forth by the law at data input, record, and management.
The Company obliges itself that it applies care with the security of the data, does all the necessary measures in terms of technology and organization, and establishes the rules of procedure that ensure security of data recorded and prevent them from loss, unauthorized use and unauthorized modification. It also obliges itself that it will inform all third parties to whom data may be transferred to respect its duties.
Controller locks personal data when the concerned user requests it, or when information available indicates that deletion would harm the lawful interests of the user. Personal data locked this way may only be treated insofar as the data control aim, which excluded deletion of personal data, persists.
The concerned User, together with all to whom data was transferred, must be notified about correction, or deletion of her data. Notification may be omitted in case this does not harm lawful interest of the concerned user with respect to the aim of Data Control.
7. Duration of data control
Control of Personal data specified by the User will pertain as long as the User unsubscribes – with its username – and at the same time requests deletion of her data. The deadline for deletion is 10 working days from the receipt of the User’s request. In this case, data will be deleted from all Controllers defined in the current Regulation.
In case of unlawful, misleading use of Personal data, crime committed by the User, or attack against the system, Controller is authorized to delete the registration of the User and at the same time delete all her data. Nevertheless, in case of suspected criminal responsibility or civil responsibility, Controller is authorized to keep the data for the duration of the proceedings.
Personal data provided by the User – also in case the User does not unsubscribe from the service or with deletion of her registration does not terminate rights for her data, her stored comments and uploaded content stays – can be controlled by the Company, as Controller, as long as User does not request explicitly, in written form, termination of control. The User’s request to terminate Control without unsubscribing from the service does not affect her right to use the service, but she might not be able to use certain services without Personal data. Data is deleted within 10 working days from the receipt of request.
Data stored automatically during functioning of the system are stored from their generation to a certain period that ensures safe functioning of the system. The Company ensures that these automatically recorded pieces of data cannot be connected with other personal data – except in cases where the law provides otherwise.

With respect to systems of Third party providers, for data provided in their systems, their privacy policies are authoritative.
Regarding data made available on certain social media platforms, Data Controller is the Third party provider that makes possible sharing of content, its service is governed by its own terms of use and privacy policy.
