Collecting data via Google Analytics
Our website uses a web analytics service called Google Analytics. Both Google and its Google Analytics service use cookies.

Google provides this information to third parties if this is required by law or if those parties process those data on behalf of Google. This type of usage is anonymous and involves pseudonymous data.

Data processing
Your data controller is Apcoa Polska Sp. z o.o. of Warsaw, Rondo ONZ 1, company registered number 0000129400 (Apcoa).
We collect, process and store our users’ personal data for the following purposes only:
To enter into and perform a contract if personal data are provided to perform it, including for accounting purposes (such as invoicing), in-house and external debt recovery processes, or complaint handling operations;
Where data are processed based on data subject’s consent – only within the scope and for the purposes of such consent;
To pursue the controller’s legitimate purposes, such as, without limitation, direct marketing of products and services or customer satisfaction surveys.
Our users’ personal data will not be transferred to third parties if this is not necessary to provide a service or perform a contract. However, personal data may be transferred to third parties for debt recovery or claim enforcement purposes, and to our IT providers, accounting service providers, marketing agencies (for marketing services), and the Controller’s related parties, including other members of its corporate group. We will also transfer those data to public authorities and bodies which have the right to access them, to comply with our legal obligation to disclose them, or where we are required to disclose them pursuant to a court order. At Apcoa, we take privacy of data very seriously. Our employees and subcontractors are required to maintain the confidentiality of data and comply with data protection laws, and access to such data is only granted to properly authorised persons.
We exercise due care to ensure that personal data are processed within the European Union, and where they are transferred outside the EU, we make sure they are only used for the purposes for which they were collected and that they are stored with adequate safeguards in place. We do not process personal data in, or entrust their processing to, non-EU countries, and should this be necessary, we make sure they are processed solely by entities that ensure an adequate level of protection.

You may request at any time that we erase any data we hold about you (‘right to be forgotten’) or that their processing be restricted. As a user, you also have the right to data portability, and the right to object to your data being processed for the legitimate purposes of Apcoa as the Controller, including for the direct marketing of its products or services, or profiling.

While as a data subject you have the right of access to data and the right to obtain information about them, you may not actively exercise this right more than once every six months. If this is done more frequently, we will charge a fee of PLN 50, payable to our account …, before we act on your request. The fee is permitted by law and will cover our reasonable expenses in connection with your right of access.
