Personal data and processing of personal data
We offer you a quiet room for meeting and concentration, which is comfortable, private, and quiet (the “Quiet Room”). Renting out the Quiet Room is our service (the “Service”).

As a data controller, we obtain personal data directly from the data subject (“You”) when you visit our website or contact us through the website. As a data controller, we determine the purposes and means of processing personal data, as well as the conditions.
As an authorized processor, we receive personal data from our legal entity clients, primarily businesses that order the Service (rental of the Quiet Room) from us.
When processing personal data as an authorized processor, we do so in accordance with written instructions from the data controller and, if a data processing agreement has been concluded, according to the terms of the agreement.
