Privacy Policy

I. General provisions
1.    The operator of the www.browarkleparz.pl website (the “Website”) is Fracthon Zbożowa Sp. z o.o. Sp. k. of Kraków, ul. Mogilska 43, 31-545 Kraków, entered into the Register of Businesses, a part of the National Court Register (KRS), under number 0000691370, NIP (tax identification number): 6762534832 (the “Website Operator,” the “Operator,” or the “Company”) e-mail address: [email protected], telephone number: +48 517 707 717.

2.    The Website obtains information about users and their behaviors in the following ways:
a)    when you upload data yourself, e.g. through a contact form;
b)    by gathering data when you are using the Website, e.g.:
- by means of storing cookies on end devices;
- by means of collecting server logs.

3.    If this Privacy Policy is amended, the Operator shall immediately publish the new version on this sub-page.

II. Information about cookies

1.    Cookies are IT data (mainly in the form of text files) that are collected and stored on your end device when you use the Website. Cookies allow for recognizing your device and adjusting the Website to your preferences. Cookies contain a unique number, information about the name of the website from which they come, and information about how long they will be kept on the end device. The Website Operator is responsible for placing cookies on your end device and has access to them. 

2.    Cookies are used to:
a)    gather data and compile statistics, allowing the Website Operator to precisely investigate how users brows the webpages comprising the Website. In this respect, we use Google Analytics and Hotjar. The data collected in this way also makes it possible to improve the functioning of the particular elements of the Website;
b)    produce user profiles in order to display personalized ads, which mainly come from the Google network. Google AdWords and other Google tools use the cookies technology in order to remember which websites you viewed on your device. Google stores on its servers the data obtained from cookies and uses this data to display ads on the websites you visit. The Website Operator, as an advertiser using Google services, has no access to the cookies stored in this way on your device, but may request that ads be displayed to selected recipients, e.g. all users that visited the Website within the last seven days;
c)    produce user profiles in order to display personalized ads on Facebook. The Website uses the so-called “Facebook conversion pixel.” This pixel tracks visits by users and their behaviors when they navigate around the Website. This allows us to request Facebook to display ads to the users who visited the Website (remarketing) or the particular webpages of the Website. Afterwards, the Operator receives from Facebook statistical data that concerns exclusively ads efficiency, with no references to specific persons. This way, we can check the efficiency of ads on Facebook and Instagram for statistical purposes and for purposes related to market research. If you have a Facebook or Instagram account, you can find information about data protection at https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/ and at https://help.instagram.com/155833707900388.

3.    The Website uses the following types of cookies:
a)    “session cookies,” which are temporary files. Your end device stores them until you close the browser, leave the Website, or log out;
b)    “persistent cookies,” which are permanent. Unlike session cookies, they are stored on your end device for the time specified in their parameters or until they are deleted.

4.    Cookies that are stored on your end device may be used both by the Website Operator and the entities cooperating with the Operator.

5.    If the Website contains links to other websites, the Website Operator shall not be liable for the privacy policies of other websites and recommends that you read them after being redirected to the given website.

6.    Deleting and blocking cookies.
a)    By default, every kind of software intended for browsing websites allows for placing cookies on the user’s end device. However, you can change the browser’s settings so that it blocks cookies. At any time, you can also delete the cookies stored on your device. Detailed information concerning the blocking and deleting of cookies is available in the settings of your browser. Google Analytics can be blocked by using the following add-on: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.
b)    If you limit the use of cookies, some of the elements of the Website may not function properly.

c)    The Company guarantees that in connection with using services and technologies, it transfers personal data exclusively to US-based entities that have joined the Privacy Shield program in line with the European Commission Implementing Decision of 12 July 2016 (details are available at https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection/data-transfers-outside-eu/eu-us-privacy-shield_en). 
d)    The entities that have joined the Privacy Shield program guarantee that they will comply with high personal data protection standards in force in the European Union. As a result, using their services and technologies in the process of personal data processing is lawful.
