- our accounting and tax advisors,

How we obtain your personal data
Most often, we obtain your personal data directly from you as our clients. In such a case, the provision of personal data is voluntary; possible refusal to provide some personal data may affect the quality of the provided legal service. We may also obtain personal data about you from publicly available sources, from public authorities or from other persons.
If you are not our client, we usually obtain your personal data from our clients or from other public or other legal sources. In this case, we may obtain personal data about you without informing you, and even against your will, based on our legal authorization and obligation to perform our profession.
Your data subject rights
If we process personal data about you based on your consent to the processing of personal data, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent prior to its withdrawal. Regardless, you have the right to object to the processing of personal data at any time.
As a client, you have the right to request access to your personal data, as well as request their correction. If we process personal data when providing legal services, neither as a client nor as another natural person (e.g. counterparty) do you have the right to object to such processing according to Art. 22 GDPR.
You have the right to file a complaint with the Office for Personal Data Protection or the Slovak Bar Association at any time.
