1.3 Right to rectify inaccurate data
If we hold inaccurate or incomplete personal data on you, you may request the rectification of such data. After receiving your request, we will correct such personal data without undue delay.
1.4 Right to erasure (“Right to be forgotten”)
You have the right to request us to erase your personal data and for us to act on the request without undue delay, where one of the following grounds applies:
(a) Your data are no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which they were originally processed
(b) You withdraw consent and we have no other legal basis for processing your data
(c) Our basis of lawfulness for processing is our legitimate interests, and you claim that we have no legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interest, rights, and freedoms
(d) The processing is for direct marketing, and you object to this
(e) We have been unlawfully processing your data
(f) We have to erase your data for compliance with a legal obligation in EU or Member State law to which we are subject
(g) Our basis of lawfulness for processing the data is consent given by a guardian for a child, and either (I) you are the guardian and the child is still under the age of consent, or (II) you are the child now older than the age of consent.
Please note that we cannot erase your personal data to the extent that processing is necessary:
(a) for exercising the right of freedom of expression and information;
(b) for compliance with a legal obligation which requires processing;
(c) for reasons of public interest in the area of public health;
(d) for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes in so far as the request is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the objectives of such processing; or
(e) for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims
Your data will continue to exist temporarily on backup files after this deletion, but we use IT security techniques to ensure that these are accessible only for the purpose of restoring the database in the event of a loss of data and that they cannot be copied to reveal data. We destroy backup files on a rotating basis within [N MONTHS].
1.5 Right to withdraw consent
Where you have given us consent for any processing, you have the right to withdraw consent at any time. You can do this by sending a request to the email address given in the relevant subsection of section 2 below, which lists the different activities for which we manage personal data. Alternatively, you can write to us at the address in section 1.12 below.
Note that the withdrawal of your consent does not affect the lawfulness of any processing we have already carried out.
1.6 Right to request restriction of processing
You can request that Danubius restricts the processing of your personal data where one of the following applies:
- You contest the accuracy of the personal data
- We no longer have a basis of lawfulness for processing, but you oppose us erasing the data and you request that we restrict their use instead
- We no longer need the data for the original purpose, but you require them for the establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims
- You object to our processing on the grounds that we state our legal basis as “our legitimate interests” but you claim that your “interests, rights, and freedoms” override these.
If the data processing is restricted based on your objection, such personal data may only be processed with your consent, with the exception of storage, or:
a) for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims
b) for the protection of the rights of another person, or
c) for reasons of important public interest of the EU or of a Member State.
Where we restrict processing, we shall inform you before we lift the restriction.
Operational practicalities may prevent us restricting processing precisely as envisaged by GDPR, but in such a case we will work with you to try to find a satisfactory resolution.
1.7 Right to object to processing
You have the right to object to our processing your personal data where:
- Our basis of lawfulness for processing is “our legitimate interests” but you claim that your “interests, rights, and freedoms” override these
- We process your data for direct marketing purposes, including “profiling” to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing. (Profiling is automated decision making which analyses or predicts aspects such as your economic situation, personal preferences, behaviour, or location.) Where you make such an objection we shall no longer process your data for such purposes.
1.8 Right not be subject to automated decisions
You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, if this produces legal effects on you or similarly significantly affects you.
However, this does not apply:
(a) if the decision is necessary for us to perform a contract with you or if we have your explicit consent, or
(b) if the automated process is authorised by a EU or Member State law which also defines measures we have to follow which safeguard your rights, freedoms, and legitimate interests.
In case a), we must implement appropriate measures to protect your rights, freedoms and legitimate interests, including at least your right to request human intervention on our part, to express your point of view and to submit an objection to the decision.
1.9 Data portability
GDPR gives a data subject the right in certain circumstances to receive the personal data concerning him or her “in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format”. The right includes having the personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible.
Where you apply under 1.2 above for access to your own personal data, we will normally supply this in a commonly-used electronic format, unless you specifically ask us to send you a written copy.
1.10 Right to complain to a “Supervisory Authority”
If you believe that we have treated you unfairly or unlawfully under GDPR, you can complain to a Supervisory Authority for data protection. If you are normally resident in an EU country other than Hungary, you have the right to raise a complaint with the Supervisory Authority of that country. This link will give you the name and contact details:

1.11 Right to an effective judicial remedy against a controller or processor
If you believe that your rights under GDPR have been infringed as a result of the processing of your personal data in non-compliance with GDPR, you have the right to an effective judicial remedy.
Proceedings against a controller or a processor shall be brought before the courts of the EU Member State where the controller or processor has an establishment. Alternatively, such proceedings may be brought before the courts of the EU Member State where your habitual residence is.
In Hungary, regional courts shall have jurisdiction in handling the case. Data subjects can also choose to bring actions at regional courts of their domicile or residence. Even individuals with no locus standi can be parties to the proceedings. The Authority has the option to intervene for the data subject to succeed in the proceedings.
Court proceedings shall be governed by GDPR, by the provisions of Act V of 2013 on the Civil Code, Book Two, Part Three, Title XII (Sections 2:51 to 2:54), as well as by other legislative provisions applicable to court proceedings.

2.16 Automatically recorded data, cookies and “remarketing codes”
2.16.1 Automatically recorded data
When you open our website on a device (such as a laptop or desktop computer, a smartphone or a tablet) select data of that device will be automatically recorded. The data automatically recorded include the IP address of your device, the date and time of your visiting our website, the browser type and the domain name and address of your Internet provider. The recorded data will be automatically logged by the web server of the website, without requiring your consent or any dedicated activity on your part. The system uses the recorded data to automatically generate statistical data. These data cannot be associated with other personal data except where such an association is mandated by law. These data will exclusively be used in an aggregated and processed form, to correct errors and improve the quality, of our services, and for statistical purposes.
Purpose of data processing:
The technical development of the informatics system, to monitor of the service, and to generate statistical data. In case of fraudulent activities these data can also be used – in co-operation with the user’s Internet provider and the law enforcement authorities – to determine the source of such fraudulent activities.

2.16.2. Cookies and similar technologies
What are cookies?
Cookies are small, text-based files which are stored on the hard disk drive of computers or smart devices until their validity end date set within the cookie file, and is activated (sending a notification to the web server of the website) every time the website is opened in a browser on the device. Websites use cookies for the purpose of recording information regarding the use of the website (pages visited, time spent on the pages, browsing information, logouts etc.) and personal settings – but these data cannot be associated with the visitor’s identity. Cookies allow the websites’ operators to maintain user-friendly sites and enhance the user experience their websites offers to their visitors.
On platforms where cookies are not available or cannot be used, other technologies are applied to achieve goals similar to those of using cookies – examples include the ad-IDs used on Android-based mobile devices.
Cookies come in two types: “session cookies” and “persistent cookies”.
• “Session cookies” are only stored on the computer or smart device temporarily while the visitor is using the website; these cookies allow the system to “remember” certain information, so the visitor will not have to provide them every time they open the website. The validity period of session cookies is limited to the duration of the use of the website; the purpose of the use of session cookies is to prevent the loss of data (for example when filling in a longer form). At the end of each use of the website – each session – as well as when the browser is closed cookies of this type are automatically deleted.
• “Persistent cookies” will remain stored on the computer or smart device after the website is closed. Cookies of this kind are used to allow the website to identify returning visitors. Persistent cookies identify returning visitors by associating the server-side ID with the user, therefore they are an essential part of the functionality of websites which require the users to be authenticated – for example on web stores, netbanking websites and webmail sites. The persistent cookies do not contain personal data, they can only be used for the unique identification of users by associating them with the proper item in the database stored on the web server of the website. The inherent risk of using persistent cookies is that they can only identify the web browser as opposed to the user themselves, so if a user uses a public access point – such as a computer in an Internet café or a public library – to log in to a web store and fails to log out of the store at the end of their session another person can have unauthenticated access to the web store, being falsely identified by the system as the original (and therefore authenticated) user.
How can I allow and disable cookies?
Most Internet browsers automatically allow cookies, but the users can delete or reject them. As every browser is different you can set your cookie preferences manually in the Settings section of your browser. If you do not want to allow any cookies of our website on your device you can modify your browser settings so you are notified of cookies sent to your device, or you can simply reject all cookies. You can also delete the cookies stored on your computer or mobile device, any time. For more information on modifying the browser settings please consult the Help function of your browser. Please note that if you choose to disable cookies you limit the functionality of the website.
