Certain third party service providers will receive personal data to process such data under appropriate instructions (“Processors”) as necessary for the processing purposes described here, such as Cloud service providers, Website Analytics service providers, or other service providers who support XAPT in maintaining our relationship with the data subjects. The Processors are subject to contractual obligations to implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures to safeguard the personal data, and to process the personal data only as instructed.

XAPT typically erases contracts, communications and business letters containing personal data, or redacts personal data from such documents, 5 (five) years after their termination or creation, as such data may be subject to statutory retention requirements, which often require retention of up to 5 (five) years.

If the processing is based on consent, in accordance to point (a) of Article 6(1) or point (a) of Article 9(2) of the GDPR, the data subject is entitled to withdraw consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
Data subject rights may be exercised by a written request through the contact details set forth in Section 2. of this privacy notice. XAPT shall comply with a request for the exercise of the rights of the data subject within one month of receipt. The date of receipt of the request is not included in the deadline. XAPT may, if necessary, extend this time limit by a further two months, taking into account the complexity of the request and the number of requests received. XAPT shall inform the data subject of the extension of the time limit, indicating the reasons for the delay, within one month of receipt of the request.
If the data subject considers that XAPT has breached applicable data protection requirements, the data subject may lodge a complaint with the data protection regulatory authority responsible for enforcement of data protection law in the country where the data subject normally resides or works, or in the place where the alleged infringement occurred.
The data subject may lodge a complaint in Hungary with the National Data Protection and Freedom of Information Authority (address: 1055 Budapest, Falk Miksa utca 9-11., postal address: 1363 Budapest, Pf. 9, e-mail: ugyfelszolgalat@naih.hu, website: www.naih.hu), or may go to court, and the court shall hear such cases as a matter of priority.

X. Data Security
XAPT has implemented generally accepted standards of technology and operational security in order to protect personal data from loss, misuse, alteration or destruction. Only authorised persons are provided access to personal data; such individuals have agreed to maintain the confidentiality of this information.
Although XAPT uses appropriate security measures once XAPT has received the data subject’s personal data, the transmission of data over the internet (including by e-mail) is never completely secure. XAPT endeavours to protect personal data but cannot guarantee the security of data transmitted to or by us.
