Rules and Scope of Personal Data Processing at the Company

We process your personal data to the extent necessary to provide the specific service you are using from us. All processing is always carried out in accordance with the GDPR and applicable legislation, and only for a predetermined purpose and based on a relevant legal basis. The most common purposes of processing include, but are not limited to:

  • maintaining a registry of users of the Pilsenská karta system;
  • maintaining a registry of users of the Pilsenská vstupenka system;
  • maintaining records of “fare evaders”;
  • operating an online store for promotional items;
  • issuing newsletters.

In doing so, the company ensures compliance with the fundamental principles of lawfulness, fairness, transparency, purpose limitation, data minimization, accuracy, limited storage, integrity, confidentiality, and controller accountability. The rules for processing personal data are defined in the company’s internal guidelines.

PMDP processes personal data that falls into the following categories:

  • identification data;
  • address data;
  • descriptive data;
  • data on the use of services;
  • data regarding third parties (e.g., a legal guardian in the case of minors).

PMDP does not process special categories of personal data, such as data regarding ethnic origin, political party affiliation, religious affiliation, etc.

We retain your personal data only for as long as strictly necessary and archive it in accordance with the statutory retention periods required by law. We process data for the duration of the contractual relationship or other legal basis. Once the legal basis for processing no longer applies, we destroy or anonymize the personal data. We have strict internal rules in place to verify the lawfulness of retaining personal data, and we do not retain data longer than is necessary for the purpose of processing.

PMDP also processes your personal data to safeguard PMDP’s legitimate interests; such processing does not require the consent of data subjects. We always carefully assess the existence of a legitimate interest.

Recipients and Processors

We process and store the personal data you have provided to us primarily within PMDP. We also collaborate with external processors when processing certain data. We carefully select the entities with which we collaborate based on guarantees that they will ensure the technical and organizational protection of the personal data we transfer to them. Processors may process personal data on behalf of PMDP exclusively on the basis of a personal data processing agreement. Your data is transferred, for example, to the following processors:

  • partners of the Pilsenská karta system;
  • partners of the Pilsenská vstupenka system (cultural event organizers or ticket sellers);
  • the operator of the Pilsenská Karta Clearing Center;
  • the provider of municipal ICT services.

Recipients of personal data may also include courts, bailiffs, public authorities, the Czech Police, etc.

PMDP does not transfer data to third countries.
