If You submit Your application electronically, the information will also be provided electronically, unless You request in advance to provide it in different way.

Your request must also provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify You are the person or an authorized representative of a person whose personal data we are processing. When submitting a request, You can confirm Your identity in one of the following ways: if the application is submitted by means of electronic communication, it must be signed with an electronic signature or it must be submitted from the e-mail that You provided when You submitted request on our Website and/or which we have in our database and can identify You.

We will endeavor to process requests for exercising data subject rights and provide You with the information as soon as possible, but no later than 30 calendar days from the date of receipt of request.

Requests are processed and information and data are provided free of charge, but we reserve the right, in certain cases, to either waive Your rights (where the request is unreasonable or disproportionate or repetitive), or the provision of information may be subject to charges – a reasonable fee considering the administrative costs of providing information or communication.
