Respecting the right to privacy of users who have entrusted Zoŗà (hereinafter "Zoŗà") with their personal data, including users of our services, contractors, and their employees, we declare that the data we collect is processed in accordance with national and European laws and under conditions ensuring its security.

Data Controller

The controller of your personal data, meaning the entity responsible for determining the purposes and means of data processing, is Adam Tyll - All Nominal Software Development, located at Narciarska 21/23/8, 94-101 Łódź, Poland.

  • Providing services – enabling users to access features such as interactive maps, an observation planner, weather forecasts, storage for photos, and a blog and forum platform.
  • Personalizing user experience – adjusting displayed content, such as celestial body data (sunrise and sunset times), based on the user's location and preferences.
  • Technical support and customer service – providing technical assistance and responding to user inquiries.
  • Data security and protection – ensuring user security and compliance with applicable data protection laws.
  • Marketing activities – for promotional purposes, such as informing users about new app features, astronomy events, or special offers, subject to user consent.

Data Recipients

In the course of its operations, Zoŗà may disclose your personal data to the following entities:

  • Government authorities or other entities authorized by law.
  • Entities supporting us in our operations, such as external IT systems providers (including Alphabet Inc. – Google), auditing firms, accounting services, or marketing partners, who process data based on agreements with Zoŗà and only in accordance with our instructions.

Rights Regarding Processed Data

Each person whose data is processed by Zoŗà has the right to:

  • Access their data and receive a copy.
  • Rectify or correct their data.
  • Delete their data.
  • Restrict the processing of their data.
  • Data portability, when the legal basis for processing is consent or contract.
  • Object to the processing of their data if the legal basis is the legitimate interest of the controller.
  • Withdraw consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of the processing carried out prior to its withdrawal.

More information on your rights can be found in Articles 12–23 of the GDPR. Additionally, you have the right to file a complaint with the supervisory authority, i.e., the President of the Personal Data Protection Office. More details are available on the authority's website.

Do you need to provide your data?

Providing personal data is necessary to access some of Zoŗà's features, such as personalized interactive maps, the observation planner, photo storage, or streaming capabilities. For other functionalities, like browsing general astronomy information or the event calendar, providing personal data is not required, and you can use these parts of the app anonymously.

If your data has been provided by another entity, such as in collaboration with a content creator or an astronomy organization, it will be processed only to the extent necessary for that collaboration.

In other cases, such as processing data for marketing purposes (e.g., notifications about new features or promotions), providing data is voluntary.

Data Transfer to Third Countries

As a general rule, personal data will not be transferred outside the European Economic Area (EEA). However, due to the nature of IT support services provided by our subcontractors, certain data may be transferred to recognized IT subcontractors outside the EEA in connection with maintaining IT infrastructure.

Automated Processing of Personal Data

Your personal data will not be used for automated decision-making (including profiling) in such a way that any decisions would have legal effects or similarly affect users, contractors, or their employees or collaborators.
