Rights under the GDPR
Providing personal data is voluntary, however, depending on the circumstances, refusing to provide data or requesting their removal may prevent the Law Firm from contacting you, providing you with information about events and activities of the Law Firm or providing the service.

Sending commercial information electronically, e.g. by e-mail, is conditioned by receiving your prior consent. In accordance with the principles set out in the legal provisions on the protection of personal data – and to the extent provided for therein – you have the right to access your personal data, rectify it, delete it or limit its processing, the right to transfer data and the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority (President of the Office for Personal Data Protection). Some of these rights may not apply to the processing of data as part of the provision of legal assistance. If you do not want the Law Firm to process your personal data for marketing purposes, you may object at any time or withdraw your consent to the processing of personal data for this purpose at any time, provided that the withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on its basis before the withdrawal of consent.
