Access to personal data: Upon the User’s request, the Controller provides information on whether it processes personal data regarding the User, and if so, grants access to the personal data and informs them of the following information:
- the purpose(s) of processing;
- the categories of personal data concerned;
- in case of transfer of the User’s (as Data Subject’s) personal data, the legal basis and recipient(s) of the transfer;
- the planned duration of processing;
- the User’s (as Data Subject’s) rights regarding rectification, deletion, and restriction of processing of personal data, and objection to the processing of personal data;
- the possibility of legal remedy;
- the source of the data;
- the name, address, and processing-related activity of the data processor(s).
The Controller provides a copy of the personal data undergoing processing to the User free of charge. For any further copies requested by the User, the Controller may charge a reasonable fee based on administrative costs. If the User submitted the request electronically, the information must be provided in a widely used electronic format, unless the User requests otherwise. The Controller is obliged to provide the information in an intelligible form upon the User’s request without undue delay, but at the latest within 30 days from the submission of the request. The User may submit the access request at the Controller’s contact details specified in this Privacy Policy.
Rectification of processed data: The User is entitled to request the rectification of inaccurate personal data or the completion of incomplete data, taking into account the purpose of processing (indicating the correct data), at the Controller’s contact details specified in this Privacy Policy. The Controller performs the rectification in the registry without undue delay and notifies the User thereof in writing.
Deletion of processed data (right to be forgotten): The User may request that the Controller delete personal data concerning them without undue delay, and the Controller is obliged to delete personal data concerning the User without undue delay if one of the following reasons exists: a) the personal data are no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed; b) the User withdraws consent and there is no other legal ground for the processing; c) the User objects to the processing of their personal data; d) the personal data have been unlawfully processed; e) the personal data have to be erased for compliance with a legal obligation in Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject; f) the personal data have been collected in relation to the offer of information society services to children.
If the Controller has made the personal data public (made it available to third parties) and is obliged to delete it pursuant to the above, it shall take reasonable steps, including technical measures, taking into account available technology and the cost of implementation, to inform controllers processing the personal data that the User has requested the erasure by such controllers of any links to, or copy or replication of, those personal data.
Personal data does not have to be deleted if processing is necessary:
- for exercising the right of freedom of expression and information;
- for compliance with a legal obligation which requires processing by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject or for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller;
- based on public interest in the area of public health;
- for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes, insofar as the right to erasure is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the objectives of that processing; or
- for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.
Restriction of processing: The User is entitled to obtain from the Controller restriction of processing instead of rectification or deletion of personal data if one of the following applies:
- the User contests the accuracy of the personal data, in which case the restriction applies for a period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data;
- the processing is unlawful, and the User opposes the erasure of the data and requests the restriction of their use instead;
- the Controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but they are required by the User for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims; or
- the User has objected to processing; in this case, the restriction applies pending the verification whether the legitimate grounds of the Controller override those of the User.
If processing is restricted, such personal data shall, with the exception of storage, only be processed with the User’s consent or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the Union or of a Member State. The Controller informs the “Data Subject,” at whose request processing has been restricted, before the restriction of processing is lifted.
The Controller accepts requests for information, rectification, restriction, or deletion via the customer service operated by the Data Processor at the info@fino.hu e-mail address. The Controller sends electronic mails from the info@fino.hu e-mail address. The Controller immediately informs the User in a reply message about the conditions and procedure contained in this point following the receipt of the deletion request.
Notification obligation regarding rectification or erasure of personal data or restriction of processing: The Controller communicates any rectification or erasure of personal data or restriction of processing to each recipient to whom the personal data have been disclosed, unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort. The Controller informs the User about those recipients if the User requests it.
Right to object: The User may object to the processing of their personal data if the processing:
- is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the Controller;
- is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by the Controller or by a third party;
- is based on profiling.
In the case of the User’s objection, the Controller shall no longer process the personal data unless it demonstrates compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights, and freedoms of the User or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims. If personal data are processed for direct marketing purposes, including profiling related thereto, the User shall have the right to object at any time to processing of personal data concerning them for such marketing.
The Controller informs the User without undue delay, but at the latest within 30 days of receipt of the request, about the measures taken following the request for access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection, and data portability. If necessary, taking into account the complexity of the request and the number of requests, this deadline may be extended by two further months. The Controller informs the User of any such extension within one month of receipt of the request, together with the reasons for the delay. If the User makes the request by electronic form means, the information shall be provided by electronic means where possible, unless otherwise requested by the User.
If the Controller does not take action on the request of the User, the Controller shall inform the User without delay and at the latest within 30 days of receipt of the request of the reasons for not taking action and on the possibility of lodging a complaint with a supervisory authority and seeking a judicial remedy. Upon the User’s request, the information, communication, and any actions taken based on the request must be provided free of charge. Where requests from a User are manifestly unfounded or excessive, in particular because of their repetitive character, considering the administrative costs of providing the information or communication or taking the action requested, the Controller may charge a reasonable fee or refuse to act on the request. The burden of demonstrating the manifestly unfounded or excessive character of the request rests on the Controller.
- How do we ensure the security of the User’s data?
The Controller ensures the security of the User’s personal data and takes the technical and organizational measures and establishes the procedural rules that ensure that the recorded, stored, or processed data are protected, and prevents their destruction, unauthorized use, and unauthorized alteration. The Controller also undertakes to call upon every third party to whom it transfers or hands over the data based on the User’s consent to comply with the requirement of data security. The Controller ensures that unauthorized persons cannot access, disclose, transfer, modify, or delete the processed data. The processed data may only be known to the Controller and its employees, or the Data Processor(s) used by it; the Controller does not hand them over to third persons not authorized to know the data. The Controller does its utmost to ensure that data is not damaged or destroyed even accidentally. The Controller prescribes the above commitment for its employees participating in the data processing activity and for the data processor(s) acting on the Controller’s behalf.
The User acknowledges and accepts that in the case of providing their personal data via contact—despite the fact that the Controller possesses modern security tools to prevent unauthorized access to or interception of data—the protection of data on the Internet cannot be fully guaranteed. In the event of unauthorized access or data knowledge occurring despite efforts, the Controller is not responsible for such data acquisition or unauthorized access or for any damage caused to the User for these reasons. Furthermore, the User may also provide their personal data to third parties who may use it for unlawful purposes or in an unlawful manner.
The Controller does not collect special data under any circumstances, i.e., data revealing racial origin, belonging to a national and ethnic minority, political opinion or party affiliation, religious or other philosophical beliefs, trade union membership, health status, pathological addiction, sexual life, or criminal record.
- What is a data breach and how do we handle it?
A data breach is any event that results in the unlawful handling or processing of personal data processed, transmitted, stored, or handled by the Controller, in particular unauthorized or accidental access, alteration, disclosure, deletion, loss, or destruction, as well as accidental destruction and damage. The Controller is obliged to report the data breach to the National Authority for Data Protection and Freedom of Information (hereinafter: NAIH) without undue delay, but no later than 72 hours after becoming aware of the data breach, unless the Controller can prove that the data breach is unlikely to result in a risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons. If the notification cannot be made within 72 hours, the reason for the delay must be indicated, and the required information may be provided in phases without further undue delay.

If the User detects a circumstance indicating a breach of these, they may make a report to the Controller. If it arises that their right to the protection of personal data has been violated, they may turn to the court having jurisdiction according to the governing laws, or to the following authority:
