Our website also uses various plugins for social networks.

Social Media plugins

On our website, we use the so-called social media plugins. When a user accesses a page with one or more such buttons, his browser establishes a direct connection to the server of the social network and downloads the direct button from that server. At the same time, the social media provider will know that the user has visited the corresponding page on our website. We have no influence on the data collected by the social media providers using these buttons. If you want to prevent collecting this information, please log out of your social media account before visiting our website. In addition, social media providers set cookies, unless the user blocks the acceptance and storage of cookies in the settings of your browser.

Twitter plug

Our website has built-in functions provided by Twitter. When a user uses Twitter and the “retweet” feature, the pages they visit are linked to their Twitter account and disclosed to other users. If the user is not logged in to his Twitter account, after clicking the Twitter button, the Twitter login page will be displayed to enter his login and password. In this way, his data will also be transferred to the Twitter provider. We would like to point out that we do not know the content of the transmitted data and we do not know how it is used by the Twitter provider. For more information, see Twitter’s privacy policy.

Instagram plug

Our website has built-in functions offered by Instagram.

If you are logged into your Instagram account, you can click the Instagram button to link the content on our website to your Instagram profile. This means that Instagram makes it possible to relate visits to our pages with your user account. If the user is not logged in to his Instagram account, after clicking the Instagram button, the Instagram login page will be displayed to enter the login and password. We would like to expressly point out that we do not receive information about the content of the transmitted data or its use by the provider of Instagram.

For more information, see Instagram’s privacy policy.

LinkedIn Lead Gen Forms

LLI uses LinkedIn Lead Gen Forms to promote Sponsored Content and Sponsored LinkedIn InMails for recruitment and marketing campaigns. After clicking on the LLI ad, LinkedIn users will see a form in which there will already be data from the user’s profile on LinkedIn, such as name and surname, contact details, company name, seniority, position and city. After submitting the form, the LinkedIn user will connect to LLI. For more information, see LinkedIn’s privacy policy.

LEGAL BASIS for the processing of personal data of our websites’ visitors, including in social media, and the use of social media plugins and tools:
  • Pursuing the legitimate interest of promoting LLI’s services and brand.
  • Pursuing the legitimate interest of attracting, identifying and recruiting highly qualified employees.
  • Pursuing a legitimate interest in improving the experience of our website’s visitors and optimizing our services .
  • Pursuing a legitimate interest in the effective provision of information and services and the conduct of our business in an effective and lawful manner.
  • Our legitimate interest in developing and improving our website and your user experience.
  • Express consent of the visitor.

Data obtained by providing services

When you engage in professional services, we collect and use personal information when we have legitimate business reasons to do so in connection with the services. In the context of providing professional services to clients, LLI also processes personal data of persons who are not directly our clients (e.g. employees, clients or suppliers of our clients). Most of the personal data that we collect and use to provide our services is data that our clients provide to us voluntarily (or that we collect from external sources at the request of our clients).

For this reason, if you are a customer of LLI, it will generally be clear to you what kind of personal data we collect and use. This information may include:

  • Basic information such as your name and surname, company name, job title and relationship with the person.
  • Contact details such as postal address, e-mail address, and telephone numbers.
  • Financial information, such as payment information.
  • Any other personal data relating to you or third parties that you provide to us in order to receive our services.

We also process special category data for some services. For example, in some countries, the performance of services involves processing details of payments made by our customer, their spouse and their dependents in relation to trade union membership, political party, medical treatment or charity. These data are collected intentionally and will be used only if it is necessary in connection with the provision of the service for which the data was collected.

Most of the personal data we collect and use to provide our services is delivered voluntarily by our customers (or collected by us from external sources upon their request). Accordingly, if you are a customer of LLI it will usually be obvious to you what personal data we collect and use. This information may include:

  • Basic information such as your name and surname, company name, job title and relationship with the person.
  • Contact details such as postal address, e-mail address, and telephone numbers.
  • Financial information, such as payment information.
  • Any other personal data relating to you or third parties that you provide to us in order to receive our services.

We use this information:

  • To provide services to our clients.

  • For accounting and tax purposes.
  • For marketing and business development purposes.
  • To meet our legal and regulatory obligations.
  • To establish, perform and assert legal rights.
  • For documentation and statistical purposes.

Due to the wide variety of services we provide, we process many categories of personal data.

We process personal data of persons listed in our database of contacts (former, current and potential clients and persons employed by or cooperating with such clients and other persons in the database of business contacts, which include alumni, consultants, regulatory authorities and journalists) in our CRM systems . CRM systems support the implementation of marketing operations at LLI. Opinion-making LLI materials, newsletters, marketing materials, information about training courses, surveys and invitations to participate in events can be sent to people from the contact database in our CRM systems.

  • Name and surname, position, address, e-mail address, telephone and fax numbers.
  • Name of the employer or organization with which the data subject cooperates.
  • Marketing preferences.

We do not intentionally collect sensitive data, unless the data subject provides us with such information himself when participating in one of our events.

Attendees at LLI events taking place at external venues must bring an ID with photo to verify their identity in order to ensure the protection of our employees, property and information, and to prevent unauthorized persons from accessing LLI events taking place off-site.

LLI may take photos and make audio and audiovisual recordings in public places during LLI events. We use such messages in our marketing materials. The image and voice of event participants will be recorded. Recordings will be edited, duplicated, shown, published or disseminated.

LEGAL BASIS for the processing of event participants personal data:

  • Pursuing the legitimate interest of protecting our employees, property and information, and preventing unauthorized persons from gaining access to LLI events taking place outside the company’s premises.
  • Pursuing the legitimate interest in providing information on LLI, our services and the events we organize.

Social Media

LLI uses various social platforms, including for recruitment and marketing purposes.

Providers collect personal data of users, including statistical and analytical data on the use of social media platforms, including information about websites viewed, likes, recent visits and entries that have been published by the user or aroused his interest. If user wish to access such data or to invoke one of your other rights (such as the right to object to the processing of your data), please contact the provider of the relevant social platform. Some social media providers transfer LLI aggregate data about our pages, including information about the number of likes in response to our content or the number of posts, our pages visitors, photos downloaded by users, or clicks on links posted by us.

Recruitment

We collect data from candidates and information about them in connection with job offers at LLI.

In general, the data we collect about people applying for a job with our company includes a curriculum vitae or CV, identification documents, proof of education, career information, employment information and references.

We use candidates’ personal data to match their skills, experience and education with specific job offers at LLI. The collected information is passed on to the relevant managers recruiting for a given position and to people involved in the recruitment process, who decide to invite the candidate for an interview. Should the candidate progress to the interview phase (or its equivalent) and the subsequent stages of the recruitment process, the LLI will collect further information. Information collected in this case includes interview notes, evaluation results, feedback and details of the offer.

In connection with carrying out the recruitment activities, including the consideration of applications and the implementation of new employees, we will also collect data from candidates belonging to specific categories of data, if such an obligation is provided for in the labour law. Information has a significant impact on the future working environment at LLI or the provision of future employee benefits, and where the law allows for the collection of such information, the basis for collecting it is the explicit consent of the person concerned. Some employees will also need a criminal background check to assess their eligibility to work for LLI or for LLI’s clients.

  • Directly from the candidate – inter alia the information that the candidate provided while applying for the position directly on the LLI website with job offers
  • From recruitment agencies – for example, when a recruitment agency that has contact details for a candidate presents you as a potential candidate for a given position
  • Publicly available sources on the Internet – for example, where your job profile is shared online (e.g. on your current employer’s website or on a job network website such as LinkedIn)
