1. General provisions and contact details

This policy (“Policy”) applies to the handling of any information (personal data) concerning identified or identifiable natural persons (data subjects) by Cordia Management Szolgáltató Korlátolt Felelősségű Társaság (“Cordia Management”) and/or Cordia Agent Hitelszervező és Ingatlanforgalmazó Korlátolt Felelősségű Társaság (“Cordia Agent”).

All data handling activities below that are carried out according to this Policy independently by one of the Cordia companies will appear separately under that company’s name. Those activities carried out jointly by Cordia Management and Cordia Agent (together “Cordia”) will be referred to as such. Joint data handling means that Cordia Management and Cordia Agent will determine the purpose and methods of any given data handling jointly. The joint data processors will determine in the agreement created between them, how their responsibilities are divided for the purposes of fulfilling their tasks according to EU 2016/679 General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”). The key points of the agreement must be made available to the data subject.

If you have any questions or remarks concerning this Policy, please contact Cordia at one of above contact details prior to using the website and prior to providing any information or data in accordance with this Policy.

If you provide Cordia with personal data through a third-party service (for example, through a social media page), you may be subject to the data handling policy and other terms of use of that given service, for which Cordia bears no responsibility.

2. Updates and access to the Policy

Cordia reserves the right to unilaterally modify the Policy, following any prior modifications, after which such modification shall come into effect. Modification of this policy can especially take place if it is necessary due to legal changes, data protection authority practice, company or employee demand, new personal data handling activities, or newly discovered security risks. Upon your request, we will be happy to provide you with an up-to-date hard copy of the Policy.

3. Other data protection conditions

During use of the individual separate services, you may be subject to specific data protection conditions that you will be informed of prior to using the given service.

4. The scope of handled data and the purpose of data handling

The scope of personal data processed by Cordia Management and/or Cordia Agent, the purposes of data handling, the duration of the data handling and those authorised to access the data is presented in detail in the table below.

The data management objectives are summarised as follows:

  • Preparation of a real estate sales contract between the clients of Cordia Management and the sellers of the properties they wish to purchase.
  • Property management services, as well as use of related real estate leasing, real estate brokerage and other services.
  • Online account creation on a Cordia website.
  • Sending of advertising materials via e-mail and/or with telephone inquiries (direct business acquisition) by Cordia.
  • Preparation of loan and account contracts related to the real estate sales contract by OTP Bank Nyrt.
  • Installation and operation of Smart Home systems and tools for the automisation of your home.

If a data handling objective is necessary for the validation of legitimate interests of Cordia or a third party, Cordia will make available the weighing test used in determining legitimate interest if a request has been made through any of the above contacts.

Cordia particularly calls the attention to all involved parties that those involved have the right to object, at any time and for reasons connected to their personal situation, to the legitimate interest-based handling of their personal data, including profiling based on the provisions mentioned. In this case, Cordia will cease handling personal data unless it proves that the data handling is justified by such compelling reasons which give it priority over the interests, rights and freedoms of the involved party, or which are connected to the submission, enforcement or protection of legal claims. If the handling of personal data occurs for direct business acquisition purposes, the involved party has a right to object at any time to the handling of their personal data for this purpose, including profiling, if it is connected to direct business acquisition. When unsubscribing from advertising materials, a confirmation link will be sent to the e-mail address you’ve provided, which you must click to confirm your unsubscribe request. Confirmation is important because Cordia must be sure that the person wishing to unsubscribe is not a robot, is acting in their own name, is confirming the request through their own e-mail account and is using a genuine e-mail address. The confirmation link is valid for 48 (forty-eight) hours. The deadline to unsubscribe begins upon confirmation. If you do not confirm the unsubscribe request within 48 hours, the link will expire and a new one must be requested.

If this Policy indicates the limitation period for the satisfaction of requirements as the data handling period, the act interrupting the limitation period extends the data handling period to a new time of limitation.

5. Transfer of personal data to our contracted partners

In addition to the contracted partners separately named in this policy, Cordia uses the below contracted partners for the completion of tasks related to data handling activities.

The contracted partners are summarised as follows:

  • salesforce.com EMEA Limited – storage services.
  • Attention CRM Consulting Kft. – website development and management.
  • LEAD GENERATION Kft. – customer service.
  • DONE Digital Kft. – website development.
  • Silver Frog Informatikai Kereskedelmi és Szolgáltató Kft. – storage services.
  • Hidden Design Kft. – storage services.
  • Wavemaker Hungary Média, Tartalom és Technológia Kft. – media planning and media purchasing tasks.
  • Cordia vendors – preparation of sales contracts.

The contracted partner acts as a so-called ‘data processor’: it handles the personal data outlined in this policy on behalf of Cordia. Cordia may only use such data processors which provide adequate guarantees, in particular concerning expertise, reliability and resources, regarding the implementation of technical and organisational measures to ensure compliance with GDPR requirements, including data handling security. The specific tasks and responsibilities of the data processor are specified by the contract between the data processor and Cordia. Following the handling of data on behalf of Cordia, the data processor will return or delete the personal data at Cordia’s decision, unless EU law or that of a member state applicable to the data processor prescribes its storage

7. Personal data relating to children and third parties

With the exception of when parental consent is provided, persons under 16 years of age are not permitted to provide any personal data.

By providing personal data, you declare and affirm that you have considered the above and that your legal capacity related to providing personal data is not limited.

If you do not have the right to independently provide personal data, you must acquire the permission of the appropriate third party (i.e. legal representative, guardian, other persons you are representing), or provide another form of a legal basis to do so. In relation to this, you must be able to consider whether the personal data to be provided requires the consent of a third party. To this point, you are responsible for meeting all the necessary requirements, as Cordia may not otherwise come into contact with the data subject and Cordia shall not be liable or bear any responsibility in this regard. Nevertheless, Cordia has the right to check and verify whether the proper legal basis has been provided with relation to the handling of data at all times. For example, if you are representing a third party, we reserve the right to request the proper authorisation and/or consent of the party being represented with relation to the matter at hand.

We will do everything in our power to remove all unauthorised information provided and ensure that such information is not forwarded to any third party, or used for our own purposes (advertising or any other activity). We request that you inform us immediately should you become aware that a child or any other third party has provided any personal data of yours that you have not properly authorised them to do so.

8. Data security

Data processed by Cordia is protected by the restrictions applied to the access of information. For example, only those who require it, in the interests of and for the purposes listed previously, have access to the data.

9. Your data protection rights and legal options for remediation

Your data protection rights and legal options for remediation are detailed in the relevant provisions of the GDPR (particularly in GDPR articles 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 77, 78, 79, 80 and 82). The following summary contains the most important provisions, as well as information provided accordingly by Cordia, on your rights and legal options for remediation regarding data handling.

Please note that with respect to profiling (sending of promotional materials and handling of related apartment-seeking preferences) described above in this Policy, you are entitled to request personal intervention from Cordia, and to express your position in written form and make it known to Cordia. You may also object to the decision which follows the results of the profiling. In such a case, Cordia will investigate the decision with personal intervention and in consideration of the information you have provided, and will inform you of the outcome.

The information must be provided in writing or in other forms – including electronically in some cases. Verbal information may also be provided upon request, provided that you have otherwise confirmed your identity.

Electronic identity confirmation will occur through a confirmation link that will be sent to the e-mail address you’ve provided, which you must click to confirm your information request. Confirmation is important because Cordia must be sure that the person requesting the information is not a robot, is acting in their own name, is confirming the request through their own e-mail account and is using a genuine e-mail address. The confirmation link is valid for 48 (forty-eight) hours. The deadline for receiving the information begins upon confirmation. If you do not confirm the information request within 48 hours, the link will expire and a new one must be requested.

Cordia will inform you of any measures taken in response to your request without undue delay, but in any case within one month of the arrival of your application for legal remediation (see GDPR articles 15-22). If necessary, taking into account the complexity and number of applications, this deadline can be extended by two additional months. Cordia will inform you within one month of receiving the request of the extension of this deadline by indicating the reasons for the delay. If you submitted your request electronically, you must be informed electronically whenever possible unless otherwise requested.

If Cordia takes no action following your request, you will be informed of the reasons for the failure to act without delay and at most within one month of receipt of your request. You will also be informed that you may submit a complaint with a supervisory authority and exercise your right to judicial redress.
