Privacy policy

Effective from 13 November 2026. The Polish version of this policy is the binding one.

I respect your privacy. Below I explain what personal data I process in connection with this website, for what purpose, and what your rights are.

1. Data controller

The controller of your personal data is Prometica Mariusz Smulewicz, ul. I.J. Paderewskiego 34, 05-110 Jabłonna, Poland. For matters concerning personal data you can contact me by phone (+48 608 132 235) or by post at the address above.

2. What data I process and why

Using the website. The server hosting this website automatically records basic technical data: IP address, date and time of the visit, browser type and pages visited. I process this data to keep the website running and secure, on the basis of my legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR).

Contact and booking. When you call or book a consultation, I process the data you give me, usually your name and phone number, in order to respond and arrange a meeting. The legal basis is taking steps at your request before entering into a contract (Article 6(1)(b) GDPR).

Health information. Information about your health and life situation is processed only in connection with providing psychological help and psychotherapy (Article 9(2)(h) GDPR) and is covered by professional confidentiality.

Online booking. Bookings are made on kalejdoskopzmian.pl. Data processing on that website is described in its privacy policy (in Polish).

3. Cookies and visit statistics

Cookies are small files stored in your browser. On your first visit a banner lets you decide which of them you agree to. I use the following categories:

  • Necessary – keep the website working, for example by remembering your chosen language and your cookie choice. They do not require consent.
  • Analytics – I use Google Analytics, loaded through Google Tag Manager, to understand how many people visit the website, how they find it and which content they read. These cookies are used only with your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR). Google Analytics does not store full IP addresses, and I review the data only in aggregate.
  • Marketing – not currently used. If I introduce them, I will update this policy.

You can change or withdraw your consent at any time by clicking the cookie icon in the bottom left corner of the page. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal. You can also delete or block cookies in your browser settings.

4. Recipients of data

Data may be entrusted to providers who support me technically, in particular the hosting provider (Hostinger), only to the extent necessary for their services. If you consent to analytics cookies, data about your visit is also received by Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland), the provider of Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager. This data may be transferred to Google LLC in the USA on the basis of the European Commission’s adequacy decision (EU-US Data Privacy Framework). I do not sell data or share it for marketing purposes.

5. How long I keep data

Technical data is kept for as long as necessary to keep the website secure. Data collected by Google Analytics is kept for no longer than 14 months. Your cookie choice is remembered in your browser for 12 months. Contact data is kept until your enquiry is dealt with and, if we start working together, for the period required by law or until any claims become time-barred.

6. Your rights

You have the right to access your data, to have it corrected, erased or restricted, to data portability, and to object to processing based on legitimate interest. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Polish data protection authority, the President of the Personal Data Protection Office (Prezes Urzędu Ochrony Danych Osobowych, ul. Stawki 2, 00-193 Warszawa).

Providing data is voluntary, but without it I cannot arrange a meeting.

7. Changes to this policy

This policy may be updated, for example when the website’s features change. The current version is always available on this page.
