Therefore, the legal basis of processing is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR, which allows for the processing of data that is necessary for the execution of the contract or the initiation of actions at the request of the person affected by the data before the contract is concluded. The performance of the contract means the collection of data for the purposes of the contract, and then the collection of the data necessary to determine your inheritance claim. Finally, we will also collect your data necessary for the payment of the inheritance due. Providing the data is voluntary but necessary for the performance of the contract, and the rejection of sharing them makes its effective performance impossible.

After the performance of the contract, we will process your data on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, and this requirement allows for this in the case of a justified interest of the data controller.
Our interest may be:

– fulfilment of legal obligations, in particular tax obligations,

– defence or assertion of claims in connection with the contract.

Period of storage of data
Your data will be processed during the period of the determination of heirs of a deceased, although it is difficult to estimate the time required to carry out this activity. After that, the data will be processed for the duration of the case when the inheritance certificate is issued. After this period, the data remains in the resources of Hoerner Polska for the purpose of proving the proper fulfilment of the contract in relation to the respective case, for a period of 7 years from the end of the case.

Categories of data recipients

In connection with the inheritance proceedings, your data will also be disclosed to a certain extent to other heirs. The need to obtain documents from offices makes it also necessary for your data to be passed on to them in accordance with legal requirements as they can provide us with the information necessary for executing the case.

Our company also uses the services of a computer scientist and bookkeeping with whom contracts for data processing have been concluded.
