Privacy policy

This Privacy Policy (the Privacy Policy) explains how the law firm Advokatų profesinė bendrija NORDEN legal, legal entity code 305636770, registered office at Konstitucijos pr. 26, 08105 Vilnius, Lithuania (the Firm) processes the personal data you may provide on the website www.bankrotoadvokatas.lt (the Website), by contacting us by email or telephone, or by visiting the Firm’s office.

When you visit the Website or contact us by email or telephone, we may collect the following information:

• anonymous visitor statistics (see “Does the Website use cookies?” below);
• information you provide when sending us enquiries, requests or complaints (name, surname, email address, the text of your enquiry). We keep this data for 2 (two) years from the date we receive your enquiry;
• any other personal data you may provide to us at any time while using the Website or communicating with us. We keep this data for 2 (two) years from the date it is provided.

The Website does not use analytics, advertising or third-party tracking cookies. We count visits with Vercel Web Analytics, which works without cookies and does not identify you: only anonymous data is assessed (pages visited, the website you came from, country, device and browser type). To tell visits apart within a single day, a temporary value derived from the request is used; it is not stored.

We may disclose your personal data to data processors who provide services or perform work for us (providers of information technology, software maintenance and administration, security and document archiving services, among others) and who process your data on behalf of the Firm as data controller. Data processors may process personal data only on our instructions and only to the extent necessary. When engaging data processors, we take all necessary measures to ensure that they have implemented appropriate organisational and technical measures to keep personal data secure and confidential.

The Website is hosted by Vercel Inc. (USA), and messages from the enquiry form are delivered by Resend (USA). Some data may therefore be transferred to the United States. Both companies are certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework, which the European Commission recognised as ensuring an adequate level of protection by its decision of 10 July 2023 (Article 45 GDPR).

Your personal data is processed in accordance with the Law of the Republic of Lithuania on the Legal Protection of Personal Data and other applicable legislation.

When processing your personal data, we implement organisational and technical measures that protect it against accidental or unlawful destruction, alteration or disclosure, and against any other unlawful processing.

We keep your personal data for the periods set out in this Privacy Policy. When the retention periods expire, the data is deleted or destroyed.

Where your personal data is contained in documents (contracts, orders, requests and so on), we archive and keep it for the periods set out in the General Index of Document Retention Periods approved by order of the Chief Archivist of Lithuania.

In all cases we will keep your personal data no longer than required for the purposes of processing or by law, where the law sets a longer retention period.

You have the right to:

• submit a written request for information on whether data relating to you is being processed and, if so, to access your personal data and the following information: the purposes of processing; the categories of personal data concerned; the recipients or categories of recipients to whom your personal data has been or will be disclosed; where possible, the envisaged retention period or, if not possible, the criteria used to determine it;
• request that inaccurate personal data relating to you be corrected or incomplete data completed;
• request that we erase your personal data. This right is not absolute and applies where at least one of the following grounds exists: the personal data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed; you have withdrawn your consent and the data was processed solely on the basis of consent with no other legal ground; your personal data has been processed unlawfully; the data must be erased to comply with a legal obligation;
• request restriction of the processing of your personal data where one of the following applies: you contest the accuracy of the data, for a period enabling us to verify its accuracy; the processing is unlawful and you oppose erasure and request restriction instead; we no longer need the data for the purposes of processing but you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims. Where processing is restricted, we may process such data, except for storage, only with your consent, for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, for the protection of the rights of another person, or for reasons of public interest;
• request that we transmit the personal data we process to another data controller, where technically feasible;
• lodge a complaint with us if you believe that your rights as a data subject are or may be infringed.

• by email: tadas.ugintas@nordenlegal.lt;
• by post to Advokatų profesinė bendrija NORDEN legal, Konstitucijos pr. 26, 08105 Vilnius, Lithuania;
• in person at the office of NORDEN legal, Konstitucijos pr. 26, 08105 Vilnius, by prior arrangement.

We will reply to requests, complaints or demands in writing in the manner and within the time limits set by law, and will try to provide the information as quickly as possible, but no later than 30 days from receipt of your request.

If we have doubts about the identity of the person making a request, complaint or demand, we may ask for an identity document.

If we are unable to provide the information you need and/or you have concerns about how your personal data is processed, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the State Data Protection Inspectorate of Lithuania.
