Privacy Policy

What data the miara.org.pl portal processes, for what purpose, who processes it and what rights data subjects have.

Data provenance is hidden. Every block has an expandable Provenance item.

Introduction

content present

Draft for legal review. This policy is a draft; a lawyer will review it before final publication. The technical description matches the state of the portal on 2026-10-03; we will update the policy after every change (forms, Help desk, new services).

3.1. Visiting pages — web server

content present

The server on which the portal runs, like any web server, processes the IP address and technical data of the request (e.g. the page address, the browser) while the connection lasts. This data is needed to deliver the page and ensure security (protection against attacks). Legal basis: the controller's legitimate interest — security and operation of the portal (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). The retention period of logs is given in section 5.

3.2. Visit statistics — Rybbit

content present

We count visits with Rybbit, which runs on a server controlled by the foundation and its technical operator, not in a service of a third-party advertising company. The settings we applied:

  • no cookies and nothing is stored in the visitor's browser;
  • the IP address is not stored in the statistics database; a hash, with a daily salt, is created from it (together with browser data), so visits by the same person on different days cannot be linked;
  • no session recording and no storing of URL parameters;
  • the statistics script loads from the portal's domain (miara.org.pl), so the browser does not connect to a foreign domain for this purpose;
  • statistics do not cover the editorial panel or form pages;
  • the statistics dashboard is to be public (in line with the foundation's principle of transparency); we will give its address once it is launched.

The purpose is to know which content is read. Legal basis: legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).

3.3. Team accounts and the editorial panel

content present

The portal's editorial panel is available only to the foundation's team. Login is handled by the Supabase Auth service. We process the email address and data necessary for logging in and securing the account (e.g. user identifier, session data). Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (security and operation of the portal) and, for collaborators, Art. 6(1)(b) or (f). Visitors do not create accounts.

3.4. Email

content present

When you write to the foundation's address (e.g. fundacja@miara.org.pl), we process the content of your message and your email address in order to reply and to keep correspondence. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR; if the message concerns concluding a contract or cooperation — point (b). Email is handled by a mail server (Stalwart) controlled by the foundation and its technical operator. The retention period of correspondence is given in section 5.

3.5. Forms and the Help desk

content present

At the time this page is published, the portal does not offer forms that collect personal data from visitors. Before forms are launched (including the Help desk for people harmed by an AI system's decision), the policy will be supplemented; a data protection impact assessment is planned beforehand.

We will conclude data processing agreements (DPAs) with Supabase and the other providers before launching features that process personal data in their services. Because the provider is a US company while the data is stored in the EU, any transfer outside the European Economic Area takes place on the basis of standard contractual clauses or another mechanism provided for in Chapter V of the GDPR.

Data is not passed to advertising networks or data brokers.
