Masterfield shall protect the personal data by appropriate measures, in particular against unauthorized access, alteration, transmission, disclosure, deletion or destruction, unavailability due to accidental destruction and damage resulting from a change in the technology used. Should Masterfield hire a third-party processor for the purpose of processing, it shall inform the data subjects of the fact of processing and the person of the processor prior to the consent to processing being given. The external processor may not make any substantial decisions affecting the processing, and may process any personal data obtained pursuant to the instructions of Masterfield as the controller; it may not perform data processing for its own purposes, and is obliged to store and preserve personal data as required by Masterfield as the controller. During data controlling and processing, only Masterfield and its external processor - if the latter is used - may access the data, as well as the employees of Masterfield and its external processor - if the latter is used - who take part in realizing the processing goals laid down in these Data Processing Guidelines, and who are bound by an obligation of non-disclosure by their employment contract and the legal regulations related to their employment regarding all data they learn. They may not disclose, use or make them available to third parties or make them public.
LEGAL BASIS AND PURPOSE OF PROCESSING
Personal data may be processed based on the consent of the data subject, stipulated by law or a decree of a municipality (mandatory processing). Before initiating the processing of data, the data subject shall be informed by Masterfield that the processing is based on consent or is mandatory. Before initiating the processing of data, the data subject shall be informed by Masterfield of the purpose and legal basis for processing, the persons authorized to process their data, the period for processing and the scope of persons to whom their data may be disclosed to. Information on the rights of the data subject regarding processing, as well as the possibilities of legal remedy may be found in these Data Processing Guidelines. Masterfield processes data for the following purposes:
- identifying the data subject, distinguishing them from other data subjects, keeping in contact with the data subject,
- performing other record-keeping obligations,
- preparing statistics and analyses,
- handling complaints,
- marketing activities,
- performing processing and data provision stipulated by law
If Masterfield is engaged in providing courses falling under Act LXXVII of 2013 on adult education, then during the processing stipulated by law, it shall, in accordance with section 21 sub-section (4) of Act LXXVII of 2013, provide data for statistical purposes, and to store and process those data from the date of their creation until the data subject asks them to be erased, as per section 21 sub-section (6).

As per Act CXXVII of 2007 on value-added tax, section 169 point e), the mandatory contents of invoices include the name and address of the buyer of a product or the user of a service, thus Masterfield performs processing with regard to these data, as well.

When Masterfield processes the data not out of its legal obligation, then it always does so with the data subject’s consent, as per section 5 sub-section (1) of the Information Act. Applying for a course constitutes consent to the data on the application form being processed.
