WHICH DATA WE PROCESS, HOW AND FOR HOW LONG
AD HOC processes your data in several ways:
a) Upon your enrolment in and attendance of our education programmes and your taking of tests, we collect the necessary set of personal data of the attendants and parents of underage attendants (name, surname, address, date of birth, phone number, e-mail address, for students also their student card number) for the purposes of enrolment, the taking of the placement test and the conclusion of contract for attending the classes, issuing of diplomas, certificates and invoices. We make sure that the necessary scope of collected data stays compliant with the accounting and tax regulations, and we destroy the tests and documentation created during the classes in a secure manner, 12 months after the end of classes. We keep the original diplomas and certificates for five years after the end of the final knowledge test so that you can still collect them personally during this time.
b) When providing translation, copy editing, proofreading and court interpreter’s certified translation services, we collect the necessary set of your personal data (name, surname, phone, e-mail address) and all data that you voluntarily deliver to us within texts and originals of the documentation for which you seek translation, proofreading and certified translation services, to which we are bound by the professional obligation of secrecy. We make sure that the necessary scope of collected data stays compliant with the accounting and tax regulations, and we store the texts and original documentation with the use of the highest security measures. We permanently destroy them in a secure manner, no later than 15 years after the delivery of translation, copy editing, proofreading and certified translation services.
c) When we hire you as an external lecturer, teacher, translator or court interpreter, we collect the necessary set of your personal data which we need during the contractually agreed engagement, and we make sure that the necessary scope of the collected data is compliant with the accounting and tax regulations.
d) Upon your employment with us, we collect your resume and job application and the necessary set of your personal data required in accordance with the regulations for the purposes of concluding the employment contract. If we are unable to employ you at that moment, we will keep your data for another year, based on your consent, for the purposes of potential employment during that period. We permanently and securely delete and destroy data, resumes, job applications and other documents of candidates who have not been employed, unless they give us their consent for further retention.
e) Newsletters are sent based on our legitimate interest solely to our education programme attendants for whom we know for certain that they will be interested in new classes or based on the consent of potential attendants whose necessary personal data we use up to the moment of the person’s request to be removed from the list of recipients or their consent withdrawal, at which occasion we delete them permanently.
