IX. DESCRIPTION OF THE MOST IMPORTANT TOOLS OF COOPERATING ENTITIES
In order for us to provide our Services and to improve and analyze them, we also rely on the services and tools of other entities. These entities carry out the purposes specified by us, with the understanding that, in certain cases, they may also, with the help of the data obtained from our Services/Mobile Apps, carry out their own purposes and the purposes of their cooperating entities.
The following is a selection of information about the services and tools we use, which you should be aware of as it relates to the protection of your personal data:
a. Analytics - Google Analytics
We use the Google Analytics tool provided by Google Inc. ("Google") based in the USA. This is a web analytics service that is performed by Google (Google is the processor here) on our behalf using cookies. The information produced by the cookies about your use of the Website/Mobile Application, a description of which can be found here: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=pl, is transmitted to and stored on a Google server in the USA. IP anonymization has been activated on our Services, which truncates in advance the IP addresses of Google users in member states of the European Union or in other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only exceptionally will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. The anonymization takes place immediately after the data is received, even before it is saved. On our behalf, Google will use the acquired information to verify your use of our services, to create reports on their functionality and to provide additional services to us related to the use of digital services or the Internet, in particular Google Analytics reports on the services provided according to demographic and interest criteria. The IP address transmitted by your browser within Google Analytics will not be combined with other Google data.
We would like to inform you that you can prevent the storing of data that has been acquired by means of a cookie and data (including IP address) related to your use of the website by Google, as well as prevent the processing of such data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=pl.
In Mobile Apps, there is no way to block the functioning of this tool. The only solution here is to remove the app in question.
b. Social plug-ins
With some content on our Services, so-called social plugins for social media such as Facebook, Google+ and Twitter are used. Using these features, you can share particular content with a friend from the respective social networks or recommend them.
When using these social media plug-ins, such as the Facebook "Like" button, the Google+ button or Twitter, personal data may be collected by these social media sites in the manner described below.
When browsing the content of our Services in which a social plug-in has been integrated, the social network establishes a direct connection with the search engine. Through this, the social network receives, among other things, information that you have visited us from a given IP address or device ID. This occurs regardless of whether you are currently logged in or registered at all with the social network in question.
If you are simultaneously logged in to a particular social network, the social network automatically attributes your visit to the site to your profile. Also, when you use social plugins and, for example, recommend an article or other content, the social network may attribute this information to your profile. If you do not want the social network to assign your visit to our sites to your respective user account, you should log out of the respective site for the duration of your use of our sites.
We would like to point out that the data collected in connection with social plug-ins can only be exchanged between your browser and the operator of the social network. We have no knowledge of the content of the downloaded and transmitted data. For this reason, we recommend that you read the current data protection guidelines of the social network operators indicated below.
Our pages may use the so-called "Like" button of Facebook Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2 Ireland. Facebook's privacy policy can be found at: https://www.facebook.com/policy.php.
The Google+ button is operated by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. The corresponding privacy policy can be found at: http://www.google.com/intl/de/+/policy/+1button.html.

X. SECURITY
We are concerned about the security of the processing of personal data and therefore we use appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data from unauthorized disclosure and access, from accidental or unlawful destruction and from loss. However, you must be aware that no method of data transmission over the Internet and no method of electronic or physical storage is completely secure.
XI. CHANGES TO THE PRIVACY POLICY
As the scope of our services continues to change, as technology, standards and requirements for doing business on the Internet change, we may, and sometimes will, need to modify the Privacy Policy in the future. With each modification, the new version of the Privacy Policy will appear on the Services' pages with an appropriate notice and will be effective in its new wording as of the date of notification of the modification through its posting on the relevant Service. Thus, we encourage you to review the Privacy Policy periodically, and you can find out if the Privacy Policy has changed since you last reviewed it by checking the notice of the effective date at the beginning of the document.
