Personal Data Processing

1. Registration for Competitions

  • Registration for competitions organized by us, such as Pieniny Ultra-Trail, is possible after creating an user account at zapisy.strefaprzygod.pl.
  • During registration, we collect data including: name, surname, e-mail address, phone number, gender, and exact date of birth.
  • This data is required for organizing the event (start lists), communication (e-mail), safety during the race (phone number), and processing results.
  • Users set their own password, which is anonymized and known only to them, to access and edit their data at any time.
  • We may use anonymized data for statistical purposes and service development.
  • Payments are handled by third-party systems; we only store information about the payment method.
  • We regularly delete outdated data; paper-based start lists are stored for up to 14 days after the competition.
  • User accounts are maintained indefinitely to allow easier registration for future events and independent data management.

2. Online Store

  • Pieniny Ultra-Trail online store allows guest purchases without registration.
  • We store address details, e-mail, and phone numbers solely to facilitate delivery and provide status updates.
  • Payment events are processed by third-party providers; we only record the payment method.
