- carefully select its processors and ensure data security through appropriate data processing agreements;
- ensure the integrity, authenticity and protection of the processed data.

The Data Controller seeks to avoid disclosure of Data Subject data to third parties; however, disclosure may be unavoidable in certain cases. Data may be disclosed primarily in the following circumstances:
- Transfers to authorities: In connection with the conclusion, performance and termination of contracts, the Data Controller may be subject to statutory reporting obligations. Accordingly, data are primarily transferred to the Hungarian National Tax and Customs Administration (NAV). Further disclosures may occur upon official request or suspicion of criminal activity.
- Disclosure of contact data: For the purpose of performing contracts, it may be necessary to maintain contact with clients, partners and other persons. Accordingly, the Data Controller may disclose the Data Subject’s business contact details (primarily name, business e-mail address, business telephone number, job title) to third parties, as specified in the underlying contract.
- Carriage: For the performance of contracts, the Data Controller uses carriers to whom certain recipient data (name, address, contact person, contact details) must be disclosed. The carriers used are listed in Sections IV/2 and IV/3 of this Notice.
Beyond the above cases, the Data Controller may also disclose data to third parties in compliance with applicable legal regulations.
3. Physical Storage of Data
Some data are processed and stored via servers located at the Data Controller’s registered office.
Transfers to third countries may occur only on the basis of an adequacy decision, appropriate safeguards, standard data protection clauses, statutory derogations applicable to the specific situation, or, ultimately, the Data Subject’s consent. Where the recipient country does not provide an adequate level of data protection, the Data Controller or another member of its corporate group ensures contractual safeguards of the strictness required by law. The Data Controller bears full responsibility for the lawfulness of data transfers and the security of the data.
Back-up copies are stored in Hungary.
4. Retention Period
The Data Controller stores Data Subject data for the periods specified above for each processing purpose, after which the data are deleted. Where statutory provisions require longer retention, data will be stored for the period prescribed by law.
VI. Measures Implemented by the Data Controller in the Field of Data Protection

In the event of known unauthorised access to personal data involving a high risk to the Data Subject, the Data Controller shall notify the Data Subject without undue delay.
Where data transfer is necessary, the Data Controller ensures appropriate protection of the transferred data, for example by encrypting the datasets. The Data Controller bears full responsibility for data processing carried out by third parties.
