If we utilize external service providers to process your personal data, such processing is carried out on our behalf. In such cases, we remain responsible for protecting your personal data.

  • Categories and Purposes of Personal Data Processed

We process and use the following categories of personal data:

  1. Employees: Name and surname, personal identification number (OIB), date of birth, address, number of children, education, phone number, email address, bank account number, length of work experience, health and pension insurance numbers (HZZO and HZMO), and other related data.

Personal data is collected and processed for the purposes of establishing an employment relationship, concluding employment contracts, exercising employment-related rights, and similar functions.

  • Applicants: Name and surname, phone number, email address.

This data is collected solely for the purpose of candidate selection during recruitment.

Clients: Mobile and landline numbers and email addresses are collected with their consent for contact purposes.

  • Supervisory Board Members: Name and surname, date of birth, personal identification number (OIB), residence address, bank account number, and bank name.

Personal data is collected and processed for the functioning of the Supervisory Board, communication, and payment of compensation for their work.

  • Students, Pupils, and Volunteers: Name and surname, personal identification number (OIB), date of birth, residence address, parental consent (for minors), phone number, and email address.

This data is collected and processed for the execution of contractual obligations and tasks related to the controller’s operations.

  • External Collaborators: Name and surname, personal identification number (OIB), address, bank account number and bank name, date of birth, phone number, and email address.

Personal data is collected for the purposes of concluding contracts and communication.

Your personal data is generally deleted upon the termination of the relationship or contract, but no later than the expiration of all legal obligations related to data retention.

All personal data is used exclusively for the purposes for which it was collected and with the consent provided.

Collected data will not be shared with third parties in any way, except for legally mandated purposes.

In some cases, instead of deletion, data may be anonymized.  Anonymization permanently removes all information linking the data to an individual. Within the scope of a business relationship, you are required to provide personal data necessary for establishing and maintaining the relationship and fulfilling related contractual obligations.  If such data is not provided, we may be compelled to decline the conclusion of a contract, suspend its implementation, or terminate the existing agreement. You are not required to provide consent for the processing of data that is irrelevant or not legally mandated for contract execution.

  • Legal Basis for Personal Data Processing

The processing we perform is based on:

  1. Legal obligations.
  2. Contract execution and actions preceding the contract.
  3. Your consent.
  4. Legitimate interest
  • Retention Period

Personal data is stored, archived, and disposed of in accordance with legal regulations, internal acts, and decisions of the controller.

Basic personal data is generally deleted after all legal obligations related to data retention have expired.

  • Managing Consent

You can withdraw your consent for contact at any time.  Similarly, you can object to our processing of your personal data at any time.

Changes to your consent can be made via a written request sent to the following address:  CENTAR ZA NESTALU I ZLOSTAVLJANU DJECU, Osijek, Dunavska ulica 53., OIB 27772905220, as data controller or via email at info@cnzd.org

If you withdraw your consent, your data will not be used in the aforementioned purposes.

Should you wish to give your consent again, you can do it at any time.

If we process your personal data without consent—where such processing is necessary for entering into or fulfilling a contract with us or for meeting legal obligations—you must provide the required data. Failure to do so will prevent us from fulfilling our contractual obligations to you or entering into a contract with you.

Withdrawal of consent does not affect the legality of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
