Your personal data may be transferred to data processors that process personal data under engagement from the controller, which may include among others: IT service providers, payment service providers, marketing agencies, etc.; however, such data processors process data based on an agreement with the controller and solely in accordance with the controller’s instructions.

In some cases, your information may be transferred to recipients in third countries, i.e., countries outside of the European Economic Area, if, for example, it is necessary to provide Services to you or if it is required by another valid legal basis. Information on this subject is available under each Service. Before transferring your personal data, we make sure that third countries, namely the countries outside the European Economic Area, provide an adequate level of protection for your personal data. However, in certain situations, the transfer of your personal data to third countries may entail risks due to the lack of a decision declaring an adequate level of protection outside the European Economic Area and the lack of safeguards and effective legal protection measures in third countries.

Cookies and other similar technologies
Wirtualna Polska and Trusted Partners upload information in the form of cookies or in a different form to end devices (e.g. computer, laptop, smartphone, Smart TV) and obtain access to information collected with the use of cookies and other technologies which identify end devices.
What are cookies?
Cookies are pieces of data, in particular text files, which are stored on an end device of the user of the Services, including portals and websites or apps. Cookies contain the domain name of the website from which they originate, the time they are stored on the end device and a unique name. Information stored in cookies is often necessary for the proper operation of a website. Cookies may store a unique number that identifies the user’s device, but the user’s identity is not determined on the basis of the number.
A publisher’s website may place a cookie on your browser if your browser allows it. Importantly, a browser only allows a website to access cookies placed by that website, not those placed by other websites.
Why do we use them?
We use cookies and other similar technologies for the following purposes:
- to provide the Services;
- to adjust the contents of portals, services and apps to the user’s preferences and optimizing the use of websites; e.g., cookies allow, in particular, for recognizing the user’s device and displaying the website appropriately, adjusted to their individual needs;
- to compile statistics that help us understand how users use the Services and apps, which enables us to improve their structure and content; research and measurements of the audience of our Services, editorial content including advertisements in order to analyze, evaluate, introduce, improve and develop our Services, websites, services or apps; for this purpose we also create segments of Users, or the audience of particular Services and content or their categories;
- to maintain the user’s session (after logging in), so that the user does not have to re-enter their login and password on each sub-page of a given website and app;
- to present advertisements, among others, in a manner that takes into account the user’s interests or place of residence (customization of the advertising message) and with a guarantee of exclusion of the possibility of repeated presentation of the same advertisement to the user, remarketing consisting in displaying advertisements of Clients whose sites you have visited or whose goods or services you have been interested in, e.g. you clicked on the Client’s advertisement earlier;
- to conduct surveys - especially in order to avoid presenting the same survey to the same audience multiple times and to present surveys in a way that takes into account the interests of the audience.
- to link multiple devices belonging to the same end-user to achieve one or more of the purposes described above.
What types of cookies do we use?
In view of the lifespan of cookies and other similar technologies, we use two main types of these files:
- session cookies - temporary files stored on the user’s end device until the user logs out, leaves the website and apps or shuts down the software (web browser);
- persistent cookies - stored in the user’s end device for the time specified in the cookie parameters or until they are deleted by the user.
In view of the purpose of cookies and other similar technologies, we use the following types of cookies:
- necessary for the operation of the service and apps - allowing for using our services, such as authentication cookies used for services that require authentication;
- files that ensure security, e.g. those used to detect abuses concerning authentication;
- performance cookies - making it possible to collect information about how websites and apps are used;
- functional cookies - allowing for "remembering" the user’s selected settings and personalizing the user interface, e.g. with regard to the user’s chosen language or region of origin, font size, appearance of the website and apps, etc.;
- marketing cookies - making it possible to deliver advertising content to users more tailored to their interests;
- statistical cookies - used to count statistics about websites and apps.
To ensure the convenience of using our services, we use the Local Storage (LS) technology, whose operation is similar in principle to cookies, but with slightly different properties. LS is a separate part of the browser’s memory used to store data saved by services. Access to Ls objects may be obtained only by a site operating on the same website from which the data was stored, but unlike cookies, these objects are not sent by the browser every time the server is referenced. The data in Ls is stored long-term by the browser and is not deleted when the browser is closed and neither does it have a specific expiration time. We emphasize that we do not use this technology to "track" or identify users, but only for convenience and to provide the best possible service level. We use the LS technology, for example, to remember settings, retain radio configurations, or store data on recommended entries.
We use the Web Push technology to provide you with short current notifications, especially the latest news, information about our Services and offers from our Trusted Partners and Advertisers.
Managing browser settings
Notifications are provided in real time and handled by the web browser you are using. For this reason, a unique identifier will be stored in your browser. In order to receive notifications from us, you must give consent to this. You can withdraw your consent to receive notifications at any time using your browser settings:
We process data about your approximate geographic location, and for this purpose, we use the technology provided by your web browser. We then use the approximate geographic location data to achieve one or more processing purposes, such as providing you with information about the weather at your location, traffic information, presenting advertisements for restaurants nearby. We cannot use your approximate location data unless you give your consent.
You can withdraw your consent at any time using your browser settings:
In addition, on our websites, we use technologies for statistical measurements coming from our Trusted Partners, especially Google Analytics and Gemius.
The above entities place special codes on your end devices that allow us to collect data used to count statistics and optimize our Services.
At any time a user may object to the collection of data by Google Analytics or Gemius by changing web browser settings.
Detailed information about the scope and purpose of processing your data and your rights can be found at the following links:
You can also prevent Gemius from having access to information about your activity on our website using the solutions available here:

When you browse our websites or use our mobile apps or other Services and when you provide us with an email address (to log in, sign up for a newsletter or for similar purposes), we may share your personal data or other information we collect from you, such as your email address (in hashed, pseudonymized form), IP address, mobile advertising ID or information about the browser or operating system you are using, with our Trusted Partner LiveRamp, Inc. and companies from its group. LiveRamp uses the information to create an online identification code to recognize you on your devices. This code does not contain any personal data allowing for identification and will not be used by the Company for re-identification. We place this code in our site cookie or use a LiveRamp cookie and allow it to be used in online and cross-channel advertising. This code may be shared with our Trusted Partners to make it possible for you to use content based on your interests or targeted advertising throughout your entire online experience (e.g., via websites, email, connected devices, apps, etc.). Trusted Partners may in turn use this code to combine demographic or interest-based information you have provided in your interactions with them.

You have the right to withdraw consent or to object to the processing of your personal data at any time.
In many cases, software for accessing websites (web browser) by default allows the storage of information in the form of cookies and other similar technologies on the user’s end device. A user may, however, change these settings at any time. A failure to make changes means that the aforementioned information may be placed and stored on the user’s end device, and thus that we will store information on the user’s end device and access that information. At the level of the browser used, a user may, for example, manage cookies on their own. Options offered by the most popular browsers include:
- accepting the use of cookies, which allows the user to take full advantage of the options offered by the websites;
- managing cookies at the level of individual websites chosen by the user;
- specifying settings for different types of cookies, for example, accepting persistent cookies as session cookies, etc..;
- blocking or deleting cookies.
Comprehensive information is available in the software (browser) settings. Selected details for those using particular web browsers:
We would like to inform you that restricting or disabling the use of cookies and other similar technologies may affect some of the functionalities available in our services.

Be careful. Make sure that you know who the person asking you for personal data is and what kind of institution they represent. Remember that you are the one who is protected by relevant regulations, including data protection laws.
