Information collected in logs is processed primarily for purposes related to the provision of services, i.e. for:

In such a case, the legal basis for processing would be the legitimate interest of GoldenLine consisting in analysing the Users' activity and their preferences;

Detailed rules for the processing of personal data for marketing purposes are described in the MARKETING section below.
2. Registration on the Website
When you decide to register on the Website, you must provide the data necessary to create and maintain the Profile (name and e-mail address).
You can also provide additional information to complete your Professional Profile, which will allow the service to be implemented in full. Such data can be deleted at any time, and their provision is completely voluntary.
The Personal Data you provide during the registration and filling your Professional Profile are processed:
- in order to provide you with services related to running and maintaining the Profile on the Website. The legal basis for the processing of data required during registration is the fact that they have to be processed to perform the agreement, and in respect to processing of the data provided to complete the Profile, the legal basis is the User’s consent;
- for analytical and statistical purposes, which allow GoldenLine to constantly improve the quality of the services provided on the Website and tailor its functionalities to your needs.

3. Contact forms
You can contact us by using our electronic contact forms. Using the form requires providing certain Personal Data which are necessary for us to be able to contact you and respond to your inquiry. You can also provide other data to facilitate contact or handling of your inquiry. Providing data marked as mandatory is required in order for the inquiry to be received and handled, and failure to do so results in the inquiry being impossible to handle.

GoldenLine can use profiling in order to implement its profile services. Consequently, your behaviour on the website – e.g. the job offers you displayed, information about your experience you provided – is used by GoldenLine to provide you with content which might interest you.
The above-mentioned activities may include:
- providing content - in particular job offers - that match your stated preferences, e.g. you have stated that you want to receive information about new job offers for a „senior accountant”;
- providing content - in particular job offers - selected on the basis of the data provided by you on the Profile;
- providing content - in particular job offers - selected on the basis of analysing your behaviour on the Website.
Our legitimate interest in recommending job offers tailored to your preferences and activities constitutes the legal basis for the processing of Personal Data in order to personalise and adjust the content of the Website. This is an integral part of implementation of the Profile service in GoldenLine and if you do not consent to this form of profiling, GoldenLine will be unable to continue to provide you with the Profile service.
