This Privacy Policy applies to you if you access our Website or otherwise engage with H—T.
This Privacy Policy describes how your Personal Data is collected, used, and otherwise processed when you use the Website. It also outlines the legal basis and purpose for data retention, the rights of the Data Subject, and other matters related to the processing of Personal Data.
H—T acts as the Controller within the meaning of the General Data Protection Regulation in relation to the Personal Data it collects and processes. H—T implements organizational, technical, and administrative measures to ensure that Personal Data is not processed in an unauthorized or unlawful manner, and to prevent accidental loss, destruction, or damage of such data.
H—T primarily collects Personal Data directly from the Data Subject but may also collect it from other sources (for example, from submitted documentation or publicly available sources). The type of Personal Data collected depends on the subject matter and nature of the Data Subject’s relationship with H—T. H—T primarily collects and processes the following:
The subject of processing depends on the category of the Data Subject, as well as the corresponding legal basis and purposes of the processing. While providing legal services, H—T may also collect certain Personal Data of other individuals, such as the opposing party, their legal representative, witnesses in judicial or other proceedings, expert witnesses, notaries public and their employees, etc.
The processing of most of the Personal Data collected by H—T is prescribed by binding legal regulations in the fields of legal services, commercial law, tax law, accounting, and related areas. Therefore, you are required to provide such data, and H—T is legally obligated to process it in accordance with applicable legislation. If you fail to provide such mandatory Personal Data, H—T will be unable to deliver the appropriate legal services. Furthermore, the provision and processing of the Data Subject’s Personal Data may be based on a contractual obligation of the Client or business partner and may constitute a necessary condition for establishing and properly maintaining mutual business communication. The provision of Personal Data may also be voluntary, based on the Data Subject’s freely given and informed consent, which may be withdrawn at any time.
H—T processes Personal Data based on one or more of the following legal grounds:
H—T collects Personal Data for the purpose of providing legal services, organizing and managing its business operations, fulfilling legal duties and obligations related to its professional activities, as well as for accounting, administrative, marketing and promotional purposes, to notify competent authorities, and to retain data in accordance with regulations on anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing, as well as to comply with other applicable legislation.
Access to the Personal Data of Clients and their representatives is granted exclusively to H—T employees, to the extent necessary for the performance of tasks within the scope of their job responsibilities. This specifically includes members of management, employees, attorneys, and associates involved in handling a particular case concerning a specific Client.
Where necessary to achieve the Purpose for which the Data Subject’s Personal Data was collected, H—T may grant access to such data to third parties providing professional support to H—T, such as in the fields of accounting, finance, IT services, and similar. Such third parties are bound by confidentiality and personal data protection obligations in accordance with applicable personal data protection regulations. In addition, H—T may grant access to or allow the processing of the Data Subject’s Personal Data by competent public authorities, where required by applicable law.
The retention period of Personal Data depends on legal obligations and the purpose of the processing. H—T will not retain Personal Data longer than reasonably necessary to achieve the purpose for which the data was collected, unless a longer retention period is required by law or other applicable regulation. When the Personal Data is no longer needed by H—T, it will be destroyed or anonymized. In the case of anonymization, such data is no longer considered Personal Data, as the identity of the Data Subject can no longer be determined.
Data of individuals who have applied for a job or submitted an unsolicited application and who have been entered into the candidate database will be retained for 12 months from the conclusion of the recruitment process or from the date of recording the open application.
The Data Subject is entitled to the following rights regarding the processing of their Personal Data:
