Personal data

Some of the cookies we use constitute personal data and therefore you have the right to:

The controller of your personal data, i.e. the entity that decides on the purposes and means of processing, is the POLIN Museum of the History of Polish Jews with its registered office in (00-157) Warsaw, 6 Anielewicza Street. You can contact the Controller by sending a letter by post to our registered office address.
A Data Protection Officer appointed by the Controller supervises the correctness of the processing of personal data. The Data Protection Officer may be contacted in writing, by post, using the address: ul. Anielewicza 6, 00-157 Warszawa, via an e-mail: [email protected] or over the phone: 22 471 03 41.
Your personal data will be processed to provide the basic functions of our website. If you have given the relevant (voluntary) consent, your data will also be processed in order to provide you with services, offers and communications tailored to your preferences and to analyse website traffic and provide social media functions (depending on the preferences you have indicated).
The recipients of your personal data are the entities to which the Controller subcontracts the performance of activities that require data processing (processors). Pursuant to applicable law, the Administrator may transfer data to entities processing them on behalf of the Administrator on the basis of contracts for the outsourcing of personal data processing (e.g. consultants, auditors, IT service providers) and to other entities authorised on the basis of applicable regulations (e.g. courts, law enforcement agencies) – upon a legally binding request.
As a rule, personal data will not be transferred outside the European Economic Area (hereinafter: "EEA"). However, given the provision of services by our subcontractors in the delivery of support for ICT services and IT infrastructure, the Museum may outsource certain activities or IT tasks to recognised subcontractors operating outside the EEA, which may result in the transfer of your data outside the EEA. According to the European Commission's decision, recipient countries outside the EEA shall ensure an adequate level of protection of personal data in accordance with EEA standards. For recipients in the territory of countries not covered by the European Commission's decision, in order to ensure an adequate level of this protection, the data exporter (controller or processor acting on the controller's instructions) shall conclude contracts with the recipients of the personal data, which shall be based on the standard contractual clauses issued by the European Commission in accordance with Art. 46 sec. 2 letter c of the GDPR.
The data will be stored for the period necessary to fulfil the purposes specified above or, in the case of consent, no longer than until the withdrawal of the consent given, and thereafter until the statute of limitations for possible claims or until the expiry of data retention obligations under the law.
You have the right of access to the content of your data and, unless otherwise provided by law, the right to rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, the right to data portability and the right to object to data processing.
If your personal data is processed on the basis of your consent, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of your consent prior to its withdrawal.
As your personal data is processed on the basis of the controller's legitimate interest, the controller will no longer process it for the indicated purpose if you object to such processing. You have the right to object at any time, free of charge, to the processing of personal data concerning you where the processing of your personal data is carried out on the basis of a legitimate interest and the objection is based on your particular situation.
You have the right to lodge a complaint with the data protection supervisory authority, i.e. the President of the Personal Data Protection Office.
The provision of data is voluntary, but necessary for the provision of services.
Your personal data will not be used for the purpose of automated decision-making (including in the form of profiling) in such a way that such automated processing could result in any decision that would produce legal effects or similarly have any effect on you.
You can obtain more information on how to exercise your rights, as set out above, by contacting the Controller or the Data Protection Officer as set out in sections 1 and 2.
The controller shall make every effort to ensure that all physical, technical and organisational measures are in place to protect personal data against accidental or intentional damage, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure, use or access, in accordance with all applicable regulations.
