GENERAL PROVISIONS
This Website Privacy Policy is for informational purposes only, meaning it does not constitute a source of obligations for the Website users. The policy primarily contains rules regarding the processing of personal data by the Controller on the Website, including the grounds, purposes, and duration of data processing, the rights of data subjects, and information regarding the use of cookies and analytical tools.
The Controller of personal data collected via the Website is IQ CORPORATION P.S.A. with its registered office in Poland (address: Narutowicza 40/1, 90-135 Łódź); entered into the Register of Entrepreneurs of the National Court Register under number: 0000992173 by the District Court for Łódź-Śródmieście in Łódź, 20th Commercial Division; VAT ID: PL7252323396.
The Data Protection Officer (DPO) appointed by the Controller is Sylwia Paź (email: iod@pixelshark.eu).
Personal data on the Website is processed by the Controller in accordance with applicable legal regulations, in particular the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) (Regulation (EU) 2016/679).
Voluntariness of Data Provision
Using the Website is voluntary. Providing personal data is also voluntary, subject to two exceptions:
- Conclusion of Agreements: Failure to provide data necessary for the conclusion and performance of an agreement (e.g., electronic service agreement) results in the inability to conclude that agreement.
- Statutory Obligations: Providing personal data is a legal requirement under generally applicable laws that impose an obligation on the Controller to process data (e.g., for tax or accounting purposes).
GROUNDS FOR DATA PROCESSING
The Controller is entitled to process personal data if at least one of the following conditions is met:
- The data subject has given consent.
- Processing is necessary for the performance of a contract or to take steps at the request of the data subject prior to entering into a contract.
- Processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which the Controller is subject.
- Processing is necessary for the purposes of legitimate interests pursued by the Controller or a third party (except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights of the data subject).

DATA RECIPIENTS
The Controller uses external service providers (e.g., software providers, hosting, accounting) to ensure the proper functioning of the Website. Data is transferred only when necessary and only to the extent required for the specific purpose.
- Anti-spam Protection: The Controller uses Google reCAPTCHA v3 to protect against bots. It operates in the background by analyzing site usage.
- Social Plugins: The Website uses plugins from Facebook (Meta) and Twitter (X). These providers may collect data regarding your activity on the Website if you use these features.
PROFILING
The Controller may use profiling for direct marketing purposes (e.g., sending a discount code or a service proposal based on previous activity). However, automated decisions do not affect the possibility of using Website services or the conclusion of contracts. The user always makes the final, free decision whether to use a received offer.
RIGHTS OF THE DATA SUBJECT
Every data subject has the following rights:
- Right of access, rectification, restriction, erasure („right to be forgotten”), and portability.
- Right to withdraw consent at any time (without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal).
- Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority (In Poland: President of the Personal Data Protection Office – PUODO).
- Right to object to processing based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing.
To exercise these rights, contact the Controller via the email or postal address provided above.
