  1. DATA TRANSFERS TO THIRD COUNTRIES

 

In certain cases, the personal data provided by data subjects may be shared with clients classified as third-country entities under applicable law. The Data Controller relies on adequacy decisions issued by the European Commission to determine whether a third country provides an adequate level of data protection. In other cases, standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission or applicable legal exemptions are used to govern such transfers.

 

  1. RIGHTS OF THE DATA SUBJECT

 

Data subjects may request information regarding the processing of their personal data, request the correction or deletion of their data via cv@kibit.hu, request restriction of processing, and have the right to data portability and to seek legal remedy. In Hungary, complaints can be submitted to the National Authority for Data Protection and Freedom of Information (NAIH), or the data subject may turn to a court of law.

 

1.RIGHT TO INFORMATION AND ACCESS

 

The data subject has the right to know what personal data the Data Controller stores and how it is processed. Requests must be submitted in writing (email or post). The Data Controller will respond in a commonly used electronic format unless otherwise requested in writing. No oral information is given by phone.

 

Access includes information on:

 

– the scope, purpose, duration, and legal basis of processing

 

– data transfers: to whom data has been or will be transferred

 

– data source identification

 

The first copy of the personal data will be provided free of charge. Additional copies may incur a fee based on administrative costs. Electronic requests will receive electronic responses unless otherwise specified by the data subject.

 

2.RIGHT TO RECTIFICATION

 

Upon written request, the Data Controller will correct any inaccurate personal data or supplement incomplete data without undue delay. All recipients of the data will be informed of the rectification unless this proves impossible or requires disproportionate effort. The data subject will be informed of these recipients upon request.

3.RIGHT TO RESTRICTION OF PROCESSING

 

 

The data subject may request restriction of processing if:

 

– they contest the accuracy of the personal data (restriction applies while accuracy is verified);

 

– the processing is unlawful, but deletion is opposed, and restriction is requested instead;

 

– the controller no longer needs the data for processing, but the data subject requires it for legal claims;

 

– the data subject objects to processing pending verification of overriding legitimate interest by the controller.

 

If restriction is applied, the Data Controller may only store the data unless:

 

– the data subject consents to further processing;

 

– the data is required for legal claims;

 

– the data is needed to protect another natural or legal person;

 

– or processing is mandated by public interest law.

 

The data subject will be notified in advance if the restriction is lifted.

 

4.RIGHT TO ERASURE (‘RIGHT TO BE FORGOTTEN’)

 

 

Upon request, the Data Controller will delete the data subject’s personal data without undue delay if:

– the data is no longer needed for the original purpose;

 

– the data subject withdraws consent and there is no other legal basis;

 

– the data subject objects to processing and there are no overriding legitimate grounds;

 

– the data was processed for direct marketing (including profiling);

 

– the data was processed unlawfully;

 

– the data relates to a child under information society services.

 

This right may not be exercised if processing is necessary for:

 

– freedom of expression and information;

 

– public health interests;

 

– archiving, research, or statistical purposes, where deletion would render the processing impossible;

 

– legal claims.

 

5.RIGHT TO DATA PORTABILITY

 

The data subject may receive and reuse their personal data (provided by them to the controller) across different services. This applies only to data the data subject submitted directly and not derived or inferred data. The Data Controller may require in-person identity verification before fulfilling such requests. This right does not imply automatic deletion from the controller’s systems.

 

6.RIGHT TO OBJECT

 

The data subject may object in writing to processing based on:

 

– public interest (Article 6(1)(e) GDPR), or

 

– legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR).

 

Processing must cease unless the Data Controller can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds overriding the data subject’s interests or necessary for legal claims. Objections are assessed by the Managing Director, who informs the data subject of the result in writing.

 

  1. REQUEST HANDLING DEADLINES AND PROCEDURES

 

The Data Controller must respond to any of the above requests within one month. In complex cases or high volumes, this deadline may be extended by two months, with notification within the first month. If requests are unfounded or excessive, the Data Controller may charge a reasonable fee or refuse the request. Responses are provided in the same format the request was received (electronic if emailed).

 

  1. ENFORCEMENT OPTIONS

 

Requests may be submitted via email or post. The Data Controller may verify identity before fulfilling requests. If identification is not possible, the request may be rejected. Legal remedies include submitting complaints to NAIH (Hungary) or pursuing claims in court.

 

  1. DAMAGES AND LIABILITY

 

Anyone who suffers material or non-material damage due to a GDPR violation may claim compensation from the Data Controller or processor. Processors are liable only if they acted outside instructions or violated specific obligations. Liability is waived if the party proves no responsibility for the damage.

 

  1. DATA PROTECTION INCIDENT HANDLING

 

A data protection incident is a breach that results in the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure of, or access to, personal data. The Data Controller maintains a log with details of such incidents. Unless the incident poses no risk to rights and freedoms, both the data subject and supervisory authority will be notified within 72 hours.

 

  1. BACKUP POLICY

 

The Data Controller ensures regular secure backups to enable recovery. Backups are stored in cloud infrastructure, retained for 5 years, and managed via anonymized logs and automatic deletion policies. Access to backups is restricted to authorized personnel with authentication.

 

  1. OTHER PROVISIONS

 

The Data Controller reserves the right to unilaterally amend this Privacy Notice. Changes take effect as stated unless objected to in writing. Data accuracy is the responsibility of the data provider. The applicant is responsible for ensuring proper legal basis and informing data subjects (e.g., referees) before submitting their data.
