8. Transfers of Data Outside the EEA
Some third-party cookie providers have their registered office outside the European Economic Area or use infrastructure in third countries (in particular in the United States). Consequently, Users’ data collected through the cookies of those providers may be transferred outside the EEA. The Controller ensures that any transfer of data outside the EEA takes place on the basis of appropriate safeguards as referred to in Chapter V of the GDPR, in particular:
with respect to U.S. providers certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (DPF) – European Commission Implementing Decision of 10 July 2023 No. C(2023) 4745 finding an adequate level of data protection (among others, Google LLC, LinkedIn Corporation and Meta Platforms, Inc. are currently certified under the DPF – their status should be verified on an ongoing basis in the DPF register); in other cases – standard contractual clauses (SCCs) adopted by the European Commission (Implementing Decision 2021/914 of 4 June 2021) together with additional safeguards resulting from a transfer impact assessment (TIA). Upon a request addressed to rodo@ttms.pl, the Controller will provide information on the specific transfer mechanism applied to the User’s data.
9. How to Manage Cookies?
9.1. CMP Panel
The Website uses a consent management platform (CMP). Through it, the User may at any time:
\review detailed information about the cookies used on the Website and the Controller’s trusted partners; grant or refuse consent to optional cookies, separately for each category (functional, analytical, marketing); withdraw previously granted consent at any time. The CMP is available:
on the first entry to the Website – in the form of a consent banner; at any subsequent time – by clicking the “Cookie settings” link in the footer of the Website. Rejecting optional cookies in the banner is just as easy as accepting them – both options are available at the first level of the banner. The absence of consent to optional cookies does not limit the ability to use the Website in its basic scope.
9.2. Web Browser Settings
Independently of the CMP, the User may manage cookies through the settings of their web browser. Most browsers allow the User to:
block all cookies or cookies of specific entities; delete stored cookies; receive notifications when cookies are being set. Detailed instructions on managing cookies in popular browsers are available on the websites of their manufacturers:
Google Chrome – support.google.com/chrome Mozilla Firefox – support.mozilla.org Microsoft Edge – support.microsoft.com Apple Safari – support.apple.com Note: changing browser settings also affects essential cookies and may therefore limit or prevent the use of certain functionalities of the Website. Essential cookies cannot be disabled in the CMP, as they are necessary for the operation of the Website.
10. User Rights
WTo the extent that the use of cookies involves the processing of the User’s personal data, the User has the following rights under the GDPR:
the right of access to data and to obtain a copy thereof (Article 15 GDPR); the right to rectification of data (Article 16 GDPR); pc. the right to erasure of data (Article 17 GDPR); the right to restriction of processing (Article 18 GDPR); the right to data portability (Article 20 GDPR); the right to object to processing based on the Controller’s legitimate interest (Article 21 GDPR) – including an objection to direct marketing (including profiling for that purpose) without the need to state a reason; the right to withdraw consent at any time (Article 7(3) GDPR) – with respect to optional cookies for which the legal basis is consent; withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out prior to its withdrawal; the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority – the President of the Personal Data Protection Office (UODO) – if the User considers that the processing of data infringes the provisions of the GDPR. Rights are exercised at the request addressed to rodo@ttms.pl or by another means indicated in section 2 of this Policy.
11. Relationship with the Privacy Policy
This Cookie Policy supplements the Privacy Policy of the Website, available at https://ttms.com/cookies/. The Privacy Policy sets out in detail the rules for the Controller’s processing of Users’ personal data, including the full scope of information required by Article 13 GDPR.
In the event of any conflict between the provisions of the Cookie Policy and the Privacy Policy, the provisions of the Privacy Policy prevail – except for the provisions specifically governing the use of cookies, which are set out in this document.
12. Changes to the Cookie Policy
The Cookie Policy is reviewed and updated on an ongoing basis, in particular in the event of:
changes in the law; b. the introduction of new cookie tools or providers on the Website; the discontinuation of existing tools; changes in the position of supervisory authorities (the President of the UODO, the European Data Protection Board). The Controller will inform Users of material changes in a manner appropriate to the nature of the change, in particular by posting information on the Website and – where applicable – by displaying the consent banner again.
The current version of the Policy is effective as of 12 June 2026.
