Consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR): When you voluntarily submit the contact form, you consent to us processing your data for the stated purposes.
Legitimate Interests (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR): To respond to your inquiries and maintain records for business operations, where this does not override your rights.
You may withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us (see Section 9), but this will not affect the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.

Contact form data will be stored for up to 30 days after we respond to your inquiry, or longer if required for ongoing business discussions.
After this period, data will be securely deleted or anonymized, in accordance with Polish accounting and tax regulations where applicable.

With service providers (e.g., email hosting or CRM tools) who process data on our behalf under strict confidentiality agreements and GDPR-compliant contracts (e.g., processors in the EEA).
Data submitted via the contact form may be transferred to and stored on our servers located in the United Kingdom. Such transfers are safeguarded by the EU Commission's adequacy decision for the UK, which ensures an equivalent level of data protection and has been extended until December 27, 2025.
If required by law, such as in response to a court order or regulatory request from Polish or EU authorities.
