Privacy Policy

Effective Date: March 22, 2026 · Last Updated: August 27, 2026

Bibliotheca Polascini provides information about books, publications, authorship, medicine, literature, and related external resources. This page explains both how privacy is handled on this website and the legal limitations that apply to the informational material published here. The use of this website is further governed by our Terms of Use.

1. Introduction and Data Controller

Welcome to Bibliotheca Polascini. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and applicable data protection laws. This policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you visit our website.

The controller responsible for the processing of personal data in connection with this website is:

No data protection officer has been appointed, as the website is operated by an individual and does not carry out large-scale or systematic processing that would require one under Article 37 GDPR.

2. Information We Collect

We collect basic technical information to ensure the website functions securely and continuously. When you interact with our cookie consent banner, we store your preference locally in your browser's local storage to prevent prompting you repeatedly. We do not collect personally identifiable information unless you explicitly volunteer it by contacting us.

3. Cookies, Browser Storage and External Resources

This website does not set any analytics, advertising, or tracking cookies. The only item stored in your browser is a single local storage entry that remembers the choice you made on our cookie consent banner, so that you are not prompted repeatedly. This entry is written only after you select "Accept" or "Reject"; nothing is stored before you make a choice. If optional analytics are introduced in the future, they will be loaded only after you explicitly choose "Accept" on the consent banner.

Every asset needed to display this website — stylesheets, web fonts, scripts, and images — is served directly from this website's own server. No content delivery network, font service, or other third-party host is contacted when you open a page. Your IP address is therefore not disclosed to any third party as a result of visiting this site, and no third party is in a position to observe your browsing here.

4. Hosting

This website is hosted by Websupport, s.r.o., a hosting provider established in Slovakia, with servers located in the European Union. Like virtually all hosting providers, Websupport keeps standard server and access logs (such as IP addresses, timestamps, and requested pages) for security and operational purposes. These logs are maintained by the hosting provider as part of the ordinary operation of its infrastructure.

5. Data Retention

Your consent preference is stored solely in your own browser's local storage and remains there until you clear your browser data. No personal data is stored on the server side beyond the standard hosting logs described above.

6. Your Rights under GDPR

As a user located in the European Union or accessing European infrastructure, you possess several core privacy rights under the GDPR:

  • The right to be informed about how your data is used.
  • The right to access the personal data we hold about you.
  • The right to rectification of any inaccurate or incomplete data.
  • The right to erasure ("right to be forgotten").
  • The right to restrict processing of your personal data.
  • The right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority, the Úrad na ochranu osobných údajov Slovenskej republiky (dataprotection.gov.sk).

7. Contact Information

If you have any questions, concerns, or requests regarding this Privacy Policy or your personal data, please reach out via email at: lubomir@polascin.net.

Accuracy of Information

Reasonable efforts are made to keep the information on this website accurate and up to date. However, no representation or warranty is made that all information is complete, correct, current, or free from error. Medicine, science, publishing, and online information sources evolve continuously, and new developments may change how existing information should be interpreted.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the author and publisher of this website shall not be liable for any loss, damage, or injury, including direct, indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, arising out of or connected with the use of, inability to use, or reliance on the information contained on this website.
