Privacy Policy

How I handle personal data on advokatni.net and in the provision of legal services, in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR).

1. Data controller

JUDr. Tomáš Elbert, Attorney-at-Law, with registered office at Školská 694/32, 110 00 Prague 1, Czech Republic, Company ID (IČO) 03658554, registered with the Czech Bar Association under reg. no. 16037. Contact: [email protected], tel. +420 739 661 038.

2. What data I process and why

• If you contact me on your own initiative (by e-mail or phone): I process the data you provide (name, contact details, content of your enquiry) in order to handle your request and possibly provide legal services. The legal basis is taking steps prior to entering into a contract and my legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(b) and (f) GDPR).
• Provision of legal services (if you become a client): processing is governed by the legal services contract and by special legislation. Such data is subject to the attorney's duty of confidentiality under Section 21 of Act No. 85/1996 Coll., on the Legal Profession.
• Website operation: the website runs on Cloudflare infrastructure (hosting and protection provider), which briefly processes technical data including IP addresses for operation and security. The website currently uses no analytics or advertising cookies.

3. Retention period

I process data for as long as necessary for the given purpose (handling your enquiry, duration of the contractual relationship) and thereafter for the period required by law, in particular the archiving obligations of an attorney.

4. Recipients and processors

Data may be made available to IT and hosting providers (Cloudflare) and to my accountant, always under appropriate safeguards. Otherwise I do not disclose data to third parties unless required by law.

5. Transfers outside the EU

In connection with Cloudflare (a US provider), data may be transferred to third countries (in particular the USA) on the basis of appropriate safeguards (the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses).

6. Your rights

You have the right of access to your data, to rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, to object, and to data portability. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority, which is the Office for Personal Data Protection (Úřad pro ochranu osobních údajů), Pplk. Sochora 27, 170 00 Prague 7, www.uoou.gov.cz. You may exercise your rights at the e-mail address above.
