  1. 4. Legal basis for Data Processing:

Depending on the type of contact or case, the appropriate legal basis defined in the relevant legislation.

4.1. Consent of the data subject 

Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, and repealing Directive 95/46/EC, pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council (General Data Protection Regulation) (hereinafter: GDPR), data processing may only take place if the data subject, through a clear affirmative act, such as a written—including electronic—or oral statement, gives their voluntary, specific, informed, and unambiguous consent to the processing of personal data relating to the natural person. Such consent is also deemed to have been given if the data subject checks a box to that effect while viewing a website, as well as any other statement or action that, in the given context, clearly indicates the data subject’s consent to the intended processing of their personal data.

If data processing serves multiple purposes at the same time, consent must be given for all purposes of data processing.

Visiting the website, registering for events, data processing for marketing purposes, and in the case of job applications, the legal basis for data processing is the data subject’s consent pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR.

The provision of personal data included in the application submitted for the position is not based on any legal or contractual obligation, nor is it a prerequisite for entering into a contract; and the applicant is not required to provide this information; however, in such a case, the Archdiocese will not be able to consider the application for the job posting due to the lack of data.

4.2. Legal Basis for the Performance of the Contract 

In the case of contracts entered into by the Archdiocese, the legal basis for data processing is Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR, meaning that the processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, or is necessary for taking steps at the data subject’s request prior to entering into a contract.

4.3. Legal basis related to legitimate interests

The legal basis for recording footage from the security camera surveillance system is the legitimate interest of the Archdiocese, pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR.

After taking all circumstances into account, the Archdiocese determined that, in the interest of the safety of persons present in the buildings operated by it and its internal units, the maintenance of order in those buildings, and the protection of property—taking into account the short retention period of the recordings, careful data security measures, and the safeguards ensuring the exercise of the data subject’s rights—the operation of the camera surveillance system is lawful. Based on the results of this assessment, the benefits achievable through data processing overall outweigh any potential disadvantages caused by recording and storage, and do not result in a significant infringement of interests.

  1. Source of the personal data processed

The archdiocese obtains the data from the party contacting it.

  1. 6. Recipients of personal data, or categories of recipients

The employees designated for handling the specific matter within the archdiocese, solely for the purpose of performing their job duties.

Depending on the type and necessity of the data processing in question, the Archdiocese may engage a data processor in accordance with applicable laws; further information on this matter can be provided on a case-by-case basis.

  1. Retention period for personal data 

In the case of contracts, the archdiocese retains the personal data specified in the contract for 8 years following the relevant year in accordance with the provisions of the Accounting Act. In the case of registrations for events, the data is stored for the duration of the event, and if separate consent is given for further communication, until the withdrawal of consent. The handling of CVs submitted for job applications occurs until the advertised position is filled, or until the applicant withdraws their consent to data processing.

  1. Processing of Minors' Personal Data

In the case of minors under the age of 18, consent, authorization, or approval for the processing of the minor’s personal data must be provided by the parent or legal guardian exercising parental authority over the minor.

  1. Data Security
