  1. DATA PROCESSING PRINCIPLES

Personal data can be processed (Article 5(1) of the Privacy Act), if

  • the data subject gives its consent, or
  • it is ordered by law or – on the basis of the authorisation of the law and within the scope specified therein – by decree of a local government.

The declaration of an incapacitated minor and a minor with limited capacity to act requires the consent of his or her legal representative (Article 6(3) of the Privacy Act)., except for parts of services where the declaration is intended for registration occuring on a massive scale in everyday life and does not require special consideration.

Personal data may be processed only for specified purposes, for excercising a right or performing an obligation. The data processing must comply with this objective at all stages. (Article 4(1) of Privacy Act).

Only personal data may be processed which is necessary for the purposes of the data processing, which is adequate to achieve those purposes, and only to the extent and for the duration necessary for those purposes. (Article 4(2) of Privacy Act).

Personal data can only be processed with consent based on proper information. The data may not be disclosed to third parties. The data controller does not further process the personal data in its possession, and therefore does not give an order for data processing.

The data subject (Article 20(2) of the Privacy Act) must be informed – in a clear, comprehensible and detailed manner – of all facts relating to the processing of his or her data, in particular the purpose and legal basis of the processing, the person authorised to process the data, the duration of the processing and who may access the data. The information should also cover the rights and remedies of the data subject in relation to the processing.

The personal data processed must comply with the following requirements:

  • their collection and processing are fair and lawful
  • to be accurate, complete and, where necessary, timely
  • they are stored in a way that ensures that the data subject can be identified only for the time necessary for the purpose for which they are stored

The unrestricted use of a general and unified identity number is prohibited.

Personal data may be transferred and different processing operations may be combined where the data subject has given his or her consent or where the law permits it and where the conditions for processing are met for all personal data.

Personal data (including special data) may be transferred from the country to a data controller or processor in a third country, irrespective of the data medium or the means of transmission, if the data subject has given his or her explicit consent or if the law so permits and the third country ensures an adequate level of protection for the personal data concerned during the processing of the data transferred. Transfers to EEA States shall be treated as if they were transfers within the territory of Hungary (Article 8 of Privacy Act).

  1. RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF DATA SUBJECTS

The Data Subject may request information about the processing of his or her personal data (Article 14 of the Privacy Act) and may request the rectification or – with the exception of data processing required by law – the erasure of his or her personal data in the manner indicated when the data were collected or through the data controller.

At the request of the Data Subject, the Data Controller shall provide information on the data processed by it (Article 15 of the Privacy Act), the purpose, legal basis and duration of the processing, the name, address (registered office) and activity of the data processor, as well as the persons who receive or have received the data and the purpose of the data processing.

The Data Subject may request information from the Foundation at any time in writing, by registered letter with acknowledgent of receipt sent to the Foundation’s address or by e-mail to [email protected]. The Foundation will consider a request for information sent by letter to be authentic if the user can be clearly identified from the request sent.

The request for information may cover the user’s data processed by the Foundation, their source, the purpose, legal basis and duration of the processing, the names and addresses of any data processors, the activities related to the processing and, in the case of transfer of personal data, who has received or is receiving the user’s data and for what purpose.

The Foundation shall provide the information in writing in a comprehensible form within the shortest possible time from the date of the request, but not later than 25 days. This information shall be provided free of charge if the person requesting it has not yet submitted a request for information in the same subject to the data controller in the current year. In any other case, the data controller may set a fee.

The Foundation shall delete personal data (Article 17 of the Privacy Act) if the processing is unlawful, the data subject requests it, the purpose of the processing has ceased, or the statutory period for storing the data has expired, or the court or the Data Protection Supervisor has ordered it.

The Foundation shall notify the data subject of the rectification and erasure, as well as all those to whom the data were previously transmitted for processing. It may refrain from notifying the Data Subject, if this does not violate the Data Subject’s legitimate interest with regard to the purpose of the processing (Article 18(1) of the Privacy Act).

The Data Subject may object to the processing of his or her personal data (Article 21 of the Privacy Act) if

  • the processing (transfer) of the personal data is necessary solely for the purposes of the exercise of a right or legitimate interest of the data controller or of the data importer, unless the processing is required by law;
  • the personal data is used or transmitted for direct marketing, public opinion polling or scientific research purposes;
  • the exercise of the right to object is otherwise permitted by law.

The Foundation shall examine the objection within the shortest possible period of time from the date of the request, but not later than 15 days, and shall inform the applicant in writing of the outcome of the examination, with the simultaneous suspension of the processing.

If the objection is justified, the Foundation shall terminate the processing, including further collection and transfer of data, and block the data and notify the objection and the action taken on the basis of the objection to all those to whom the personal data concerned by the objection have been previously disclosed and who are obliged to take measures to enforce the right to object.

The Data Subject may take the Foundation to court if his or her rights are infringed. The case shall be given priority by the court (Article 22(1) of the Privacy Act).

The data controller is liable to the Data Subject for any damage caused by the data processor and the data controller is also liable to pay the data subject’s damages in the event of a personal injury caused by the data processor. The data controller shall be exempt from liability for the damage caused and from the obligation to pay compensation if it proves that the damage or the infringement of the Data Subject’s personal rights was caused by an unforeseeable cause outside the scope of the processing.
