Concise, precise and bound by legal professional privilege.
We explain what data we collect, why, and for how long we keep it — and how your rights interact with the duty of attorney confidentiality, which in our profession takes precedence.
The controller of your personal data is Studziński i Partnerzy Adwokacka Spółka Partnerska, a partnership of Polish attorneys-at-law (adwokaci), with its registered office at ul. Stefana Okrzei 21/1, 57-300 Kłodzko, Poland; entered in the National Court Register (KRS) under no. 0000574996 (District Court for Wrocław-Fabryczna), tax ID (NIP) 883-185-86-17, REGON 362483268 (the „Firm").
For any matter concerning personal data you may contact us:
We have not appointed a Data Protection Officer, as we are not required to. Please use the contact details above for all data-related matters.
This policy covers the data of people who contact the Firm through the website, by e-mail or by telephone and — to the extent set out in point 04 — data processed in connection with providing legal assistance.
When you contact us we usually collect: your name, e-mail address, telephone number (if you provide it), the content of your message and any other information you choose to share.
Some data may reach us not from you but from our client — for example, the data of persons involved in a matter. Such data is covered by attorney confidentiality; see point 04.
We process your data for the following purposes:
Everything we learn in connection with providing legal assistance is covered by attorney confidentiality — from first contact, whether or not an engagement follows.
As a firm of Polish advocates, we are bound by legal professional privilege — attorney secrecy — under Art. 6 of the Polish Bar Act (Prawo o adwokaturze). Data-protection rules apply only in so far as they do not breach that duty (Art. 16a of the Polish Bar Act). In practice:
These limitations apply only to data covered by privilege. Data processed outside that scope — for example a general enquiry that does not disclose the substance of a matter — is subject to your rights in full (point 07).
Only authorised members of the Firm's team, bound by confidentiality, have access to the data. We use trusted providers who process data on our behalf under data-processing agreements:
We do not sell data and do not share it for marketing purposes. We may disclose data to bodies entitled to it under the law — subject to attorney confidentiality (point 04).
Under the Microsoft services, data may also be processed outside the European Economic Area; this takes place on the basis of GDPR-compliant mechanisms (including standard contractual clauses or adequacy decisions).
You have the right to: access your data and obtain a copy, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability, and to object to processing based on legitimate interest — to the extent provided by law. The exercise of these rights is limited by attorney confidentiality as described in point 04.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the President of the Personal Data Protection Office (Urząd Ochrony Danych Osobowych, ul. Stawki 2, 00-193 Warsaw, Poland), the supervisory authority for the Firm, if you consider that we process your data unlawfully.
To exercise your rights, write to wroclaw@studzinski.com.pl. We respond without undue delay and no later than one month of receiving a request.
Providing data is voluntary but necessary to handle your contact — without it we cannot respond to your enquiry. We do not take decisions based solely on automated processing and we do not carry out profiling.
Our hosting provider may keep standard access logs (including IP address, the date and time of the request, and browser type) to ensure the security and correct operation of the site (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Logs are retained in accordance with the provider's configuration.
We present team members' data on the site (name, professional title, biography, photograph) in order to introduce the Firm. The basis is the Firm's legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) and, as regards images, the consent of those persons.
We may update this policy, for example when the scope of the website changes. The current version is always available at this address.
