We may collect name and surname, email address and contact details, ticket and registration details, payment and invoice information, photos and video recordings from events, and marketing preferences.

We use personal data to process ticket purchases and registrations, send tickets, QR codes and event information, issue invoices and manage refunds, organize events and communicate with participants, respond to questions and complaints, document and promote our events, and send marketing emails where permitted. We process data under GDPR Article 6(1)(b) for contracts, Article 6(1)(c) for legal obligations, Article 6(1)(f) for legitimate interests, and Article 6(1)(a) where consent is required. Our legitimate interests include event administration, security, responding to enquiries, and documenting our activities.

Marketing emails are sent only when legally permitted, including where you have given consent. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in our emails or by contacting us. Unsubscribing does not affect essential information about tickets you have purchased.

Our events may be photographed or recorded. We may use event photos and videos on our websites, social media, and promotional materials where permitted by law. Close-up images of identifiable participants will be published only with an appropriate legal basis and any required permission. You can contact us with questions or objections about the use of your image.

We share personal data only when necessary with trusted service providers, such as ticketing and payment platforms, email and newsletter services, event registration and management services, accounting and technical service providers, and event partners where necessary and legally permitted. These providers receive only the data needed for their services and must protect it as required by law.

Some service providers or event partners may operate outside the European Economic Area. Where personal data is transferred internationally, we use safeguards required by GDPR, such as adequacy decisions or Standard Contractual Clauses, where applicable. Information about relevant safeguards is available on request.

We keep personal data only as long as necessary. Ticket and registration data is kept for event administration and any applicable claims, invoice and accounting data for periods required by law, marketing data until consent is withdrawn or there is no longer a lawful basis, and photos and recordings while needed for lawful documentation and promotion, subject to regular review. After the applicable retention period, data is deleted or anonymized.

Under GDPR, you may have the right to access and correct your data, request deletion or restriction of processing, object to processing, request data portability, withdraw consent at any time, and file a complaint with the Polish Data Protection Authority (UODO). To exercise your rights, contact info@polishgraphicdesign.com.

Providing the information needed to purchase tickets and register for events is necessary to complete the booking. Marketing consent is optional. We do not use personal data for automated decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects.

For privacy questions, contact info@polishgraphicdesign.com. We may update this Privacy Policy when our services or legal requirements change. The latest version will be available on our website.
