KOREJZOVA LEGAL is the controller of your personal data within the meaning of Article 26 of the Regulation.

The controller has, among other things, agreed that the information obligation under Articles 13 and 14 of the Regulation, which can be fulfilled by publication in a manner allowing remote access (i.e., in the case of processing for the purpose of fulfilling a legal obligation or public task, and further in relation to electronically sent Messages), shall be fulfilled by the controller's publication on the KOREJZOVA LEGAL website. When providing legal services, this obligation is fulfilled directly by KOREJZOVA LEGAL v.o.s..

In matters of personal data, you can primarily contact the controller and exercise all the rights listed below in writing at the address of the registered office of KOREJZOVA LEGAL v.o.s., Korunní 810/140 E, CZ - 101 00 Prague 10, or by sending an email to info@korejzova.cz.

Changes to personal data can also be reported to these addresses. However, according to Article 23(3) of the Regulation, rights can also be exercised against each of the Joint Controllers.

3. What personal data do we collect and process about you?

We process your identification, address, and contact details, primarily obtained from you or from public registers (e.g., online databases of the Industrial Property Office, EUIPO, EPO, WIPO, or the Commercial Register).

4. For what purpose and on what legal basis do we process your personal data?

We process your personal data for the purpose of:

(a) concluding a Contract for Legal Representation, with the legal basis being representation of clients, where the contracting party is the data subject, or taking measures taken before the conclusion of the contract at the request of the data subject under Article 6(1)(b) of the Regulation;

(b) fulfilling obligations related to the conclusion and performance of Contracts imposed by legal regulations, especially Act No. 85/1996 Coll., on Advocacy, archiving obligations (under the Accounting Act, VAT Act, etc.), and the obligation to identify, possibly verify clients and record and verify their personal data from identity cards under Act No. 253/2008 Coll., on certain measures against legalization of proceeds from crime and financing of terrorism (hereinafter referred to as "AML Identification Obligation"). The legal basis is the fulfillment of a legal obligation that applies to the Joint Controller under Article 6(1)(c) of the Regulation;

(c) legitimate interests of the controller, including:

(i) transferring personal data within KOREJZOVA LEGAL for its internal administrative purposes, especially for their processing by selected employees within KOREJZOVA LEGAL v.o.s., or processors or other controllers duly authorized within KOREJZOVA LEGAL v.o.s.;

(ii) protecting the legal claims of the controller and primarily the client in any disputes related to provided legal services or processing of personal data, etc.;

(iii) sending commercial and informational communications regarding existing or prepared services of KOREJZOVA LEGAL v.o.s. to Clients for direct marketing purposes;

This involves processing data necessary for fulfilling obligations in providing legal services and for the legitimate interests of the controller. Providing data is therefore a mandatory contractual requirement without which contracts cannot be concluded and obligations fulfilled or legitimate interests of the controller fulfilled.

You can object to processing for the purpose of direct marketing at any time, and the controller will immediately cease processing for this purpose without further delay.

If we intend to or it is necessary to process your personal data for another purpose, we will provide you with information about this other purpose and any additional relevant information in advance.

Can the controller disclose your personal data to other recipients?
The controller cannot disclose your personal data to any other recipients. The controller is bound by the obligation of confidentiality under Act No. 85/1996 Coll., on Advocacy.

5. How long do we process your personal data?

We process your personal data collected for the purpose of providing legal services until obligations are fulfilled.

If, based on your request, a Contract is not concluded, we will promptly terminate the processing of your personal data, except for basic data, which we will retain for the purpose of protecting legal claims under Article 4(c)(ii) above, and contact data used for sending commercial communications under Article 4(c)(v) above.

If your objection to processing for the purpose of legitimate interests of the controller is successful, the processing of the relevant data will be terminated no later than 3 months from the dispatch of the notification of such compliance.

For the purpose of protecting the legal claims of the controller in the event of disputes arising from Contracts with Clients or in connection with the processing carried out, the controller will retain necessary data for up to one year after the expiration of all limitation periods arising from Contracts or pre-contractual negotiations, or related to the processing carried out.
