Security policy
Communication between the user and the BaseLinker.com website is done using a secure, encrypted SSL protocol.
Service activities are performed immediately if any malfunction of the server or network infrastructure is detected.
Twice a day all data entered into the system is backed up.
In the case of changes in external systems with which the system is integrated (e.g. Allegro.pl service), the application is adjusted to the current requirements of these services in an immediate manner so as to ensure continuous and correct operation of the system with as few interruptions as possible.
The server that is used by the BaseLinker system is located in a Data Center monitored 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Only authorized administrators are allowed to operate servers. The server room is protected against fires, access by unauthorized persons and has a power supply independent of city power.
Each user's account is protected by a login and password. The password is stored in an encrypted form (hash) - if you lose your password, you can only set a new password. It is not possible to recover a password based on its encoded form.
Because all data is stored on our server, customers do not have to worry about theft or failure of their computer. In such cases, their data will be available immediately from another computer.

The websites operated by BaseLinker, like most websites, use the so-called cookies. These files:
- are stored in the memory of your device (computer, telephone, etc.),
- do not alter the settings of your device.
On websites operated by BaseLinker, cookies are used for the following purposes:

AUTOMATED DECISION MAKING
As a general rule, your personal data will not be processed by automated means (including profiling) in such a way that any decisions could be made as a result of such automated processing, that other legal effects would be produced or that it would otherwise materially affect our customers, contractors and their employees/associates.
Where automated decision-making is intended, we will provide separate information in advance, including details of how such decisions are made and the consequences of such processing. In cases of automated decision-making, you have the right to challenge this decision and obtain human intervention on the part of the Controller.
PROFILING
We perform profiling within the Website - with regard to you, this will be the case if you allow (e.g. through the relevant settings of your browser) such actions. This profiling consists of automatically assessing which products or services you may be interested in, using information about the content you have viewed. As a result, advertisements for products or services displayed on the online services you use will be more relevant to you and your needs.
The profiling we perform does not result in decisions that produce legal effects for you or affect you in a similarly significant way.
ANALYTICAL ACTIVITIES
We conduct analytics activities on the Website in order to make the Website more intuitive and accessible - this will be the case for you if you have allowed (e.g. by appropriate settings on your browser) such activities. As part of the analytics, we will take into account how you navigate the Website, e.g. how much time you spend on a given subpage, or which areas of the Website you click on. This allows us to adapt the layout and appearance of the Website and the content published therein to the needs of Users.
GOOGLE ANALYTICS AND GOOGLE TAG MANAGER
The websites operated by BaseLinker use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited ('Google'). Google Analytics uses cookies. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, due to activation of IP anonymisation on these websites, your IP address will be truncated beforehand by Google in Member States of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be sent to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On our behalf, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide other services relating to website traffic and internet usage to us. The IP address provided by Google Analytics will not be merged with other data held by Google.
The purpose of data processing is to evaluate the use of the website and compile reports on the activities on the website. Based on the use of the website and the internet, other related services will be provided. The processing is based on our legitimate interest.
Google Analytics collects data about IP addresses, network location, date of visit, operating system, browser type. You can prevent the storage of cookies by using the appropriate setting of your browser software; however, please note that if you do this, you may not be able to use all the features of this website to the fullest extent possible.
In addition, you can prevent the collection by Google of the data generated by the cookie and the data related to your use of the website (including your IP address), as well as the processing of this data by Google, by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under the following link: Browser Add On to disable Google Analytics. In addition or as an alternative to the browser add-on, you can prevent tracking by Google Analytics on our pages by clicking on this link. An opt-out cookie will be installed on your device. This will prevent Google Analytics from collecting this website and this browser in the future, as long as the cookie remains installed on your browser.
HTTP request logs can be used by Google Tag Manager. Read more about Google Tag Manager in the Privacy and data security document.
Based on our legitimate interests (i.e. interest in the analysis, optimisation and economic performance of our online offering within the meaning of Article 6 (1)(f) of the GDPR) we use social plugins ('plugins') of the social network facebook.com, operated by Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland ('Facebook'). The plugins can represent elements of interaction or content (e.g. videos, graphics or text inserts) and can be identified by one of the Facebook logos (white 'f' on a blue tile, terms 'Like', 'Thumbs Up' or 'sign') or are identified by the addition 'Facebook Social Plugin'. The list and appearance of Facebook social plugins can be viewed here.
When you use functions on a website that contains such a plug-in, your device establishes a direct connection to the Facebook servers. The content of the plug-in is transmitted by Facebook directly to the user's device and incorporated by the user into the online offer. In this process, user profiles can be created from the processed data. We have no influence over the amount of data that Facebook collects via the plugin, so we inform users of how this works to the best of our knowledge.
By integrating the plugins Facebook is informed that the user has accessed the relevant page. If a user is logged into Facebook, Facebook can attribute the visit to their Facebook account. If users interact with the plugins, for example by using the Like button or the function to leave a comment, the information is sent from the device directly to Facebook and stored there. If the user is not a member of Facebook, it is still possible that Facebook will obtain the IP address.
The purpose and scope of data collection and further processing and use of data by Facebook, as well as the associated rights and options for setting user privacy protection, can be found in Facebook's privacy policy.
If you are a Facebook user and do not want Facebook to collect data about you via this website and link it to your data stored on Facebook, you must log out of Facebook and delete your cookies before using our website. Other settings changes regarding the use of data for advertising purposes are possible in your Facebook profile settings. The settings are adapted to all devices, such as desktop computers or mobile devices.
We use a 'user action pixel' called 'Facebook Pixel', a service provided by Facebook on our website. With its help, we can track users' actions after viewing or clicking on a Facebook ad. This allows us to track the effectiveness of Facebook ads, which we use for statistical and market research purposes. The data collected in this way is anonymous to us, i.e. we do not see the personal data of individual users. However, this data is stored and processed by Facebook, which we inform you about to the best of our knowledge. Facebook may link this data to your Facebook account and use it for its own advertising purposes, in accordance with Facebook's data use policy. You can prevent Facebook and its affiliates from displaying advertisements on and off Facebook.
HOTJAR
We use cookies associated with Hotjar to monitor user activity for statistical purposes, as well as to make decisions about improving the website.
Information about cookies from HotJar Ltd is available on this page. The Privacy Policy of HotJar Ltd. is available here.
DATA SECURITY
When processing your personal data, we use organisational and technical measures in accordance with the relevant legislation, including the use of encryption of the connection using an SSL certificate.
VOLUNTARY PROVISION OF PERSONAL DATA
Giving data is necessary to conclude agreements and to account for the conducted business and BaseLinker's fulfilment of legal requirements. To the remaining extent (in particular, for BaseLinker to process data for individual marketing purposes) providing data is voluntary.
SOURCE AND CATEGORIES OF PROCESSED DATA
As a general rule, we process data obtained directly from you. If you did not provide us with your personal data, we obtained it from our User, a contractor or from another entity that had a valid legal basis for providing it (e.g. from your representative or from an entity that had your consent to provide us with the data). In the event that you, as a User, configure the integration of your account with another platform, we will obtain data from the providers of such platform - in principle through the API protocol enabling the integration and by any other means necessary to provide functionality and handle any related organizational issues.
We acquire personal data to the extent necessary to fulfil the purposes of the processing. If data is collected for the purpose of concluding and performing an agreement, the most common are: name, surname, identification data, postal address, e-mail address, telephone number, order data, invoice data and contact history with BaseLinker support. In case of concluding a written agreement, we also process the PESEL (Personal ID) number. In the case of electronic transaction processing - also login, password, as well as purchase and activity history.
DATA RECIPIENTS
To the extent necessary to achieve the purposes of processing, the recipients of your personal data may be external entities, on the basis of a concluded agreement on the entrustment of personal data processing, or in order to provide services specified in the agreement or work commissioned for BaseLinker or to ensure cooperation and communication between BaseLinker and its affiliates, contractors and associates. Recipients, in addition to those identified within the information about data processing on the Website and on the websites operated by BaseLinker, may be:
- entities providing accounting services, audit services, legal services;
- IT service providers, in particular, hosting services, server administration and provision or maintenance of IT systems, cloud computing service providers, software providers used by BaseLinker in the ordinary course of business;

TRANSFER OF PERSONAL DATA TO THIRD COUNTRIES
Your personal data will as a rule not be transferred outside the European Economic Area ('EEA'). However, given the services provided by BaseLinker's subcontractors in the provision of support for ICT services and IT infrastructure, and the supply of software for use in the ordinary course of business, BaseLinker may outsource certain IT activities or tasks to recognised subcontractors operating outside the EEA, which may result in your data being transferred outside the EEA.
Recipient countries outside the EEA, as decided by the European Commission, provide an adequate level of protection of personal data in accordance with EEA standards. For recipients within countries not covered by the European Commission's decision, in order to ensure an adequate level of this protection, BaseLinker concludes agreements with recipients of your personal data based on standard contractual clauses issued by the European Commission in accordance with Article 46(2)(c) of the GDPR.
A copy of the standard contractual clauses can be obtained from BaseLinker by turning to the contact details provided above. The method used by BaseLinker to secure your data complies with the principles provided for in Chapter V of the GDPR. You may request further information about the safeguards applied in this regard, obtain a copy of these safeguards and information about where they are available.
