Contents

This policy explains what personal data we process when operating the website stromyvcr.cz, why we do so and what rights you have. We comply with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR), Czech Act No. 110/2019 Coll., on the Processing of Personal Data, and Czech Act No. 127/2005 Coll., on Electronic Communications, and we also take into account privacy laws in force in the USA (in particular the California CCPA/CPRA and similar laws of other states).

Providing data in the contact form is voluntary; however, without an e-mail address we cannot reply to you. No automated decision-making or profiling with legal effects takes place.

4. Cookies and local storage

Ordinary visitors receive no cookies from us. Traffic measurement by w3min.com works without cookies. The TOPlist counter loads a tracking image from its own server, through which it processes the technical data listed in Section 3. In the browser's local storage (localStorage), the website only remembers your choice of light/dark mode and the fact that you have closed the offer of another language version. This data never leaves your device and is strictly necessary for a function you have requested (Section 89(3) of the Czech Electronic Communications Act, Art. 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive).

Google reCAPTCHA is loaded only once you start filling in the contact form, and it may store its own cookies necessary to detect automated bots. Editorial staff use a single session cookie to log in to the administration area.

5. Recipients and processors

  • Hosting provider in the EU – operation of the server and database.
  • Cloudflare, Inc. – content delivery network (CDN) and protection against attacks; processes IP addresses and technical data.
  • TOPlist (toplist.cz) – visitor counter and traffic statistics.
  • w3min.com – anonymous, cookie-free traffic statistics.
  • Google Ireland Ltd. / Google LLC – reCAPTCHA v3 (Google Privacy Policy).
  • OpenAI and Anthropic – artificial intelligence tools used by the editorial team to prepare and translate articles. We do not transfer visitors' personal data to these services, only editorial texts.

6. Transfers of data outside the EU

Some processors (Google, Cloudflare) may also process data in the USA. Such transfers are based on the European Commission's adequacy decision (EU-US Data Privacy Framework), under which these companies are certified, or on standard contractual clauses (Art. 46 GDPR).

7. Your rights under the GDPR

  • the right of access to your personal data (Art. 15),
  • the right to rectification (Art. 16) and erasure (Art. 17),

10. Security

The website is available exclusively over an encrypted HTTPS connection. We use up-to-date software, access restrictions, encrypted password storage and protection against automated attacks. Access to data is limited to the strictly necessary group of people.
