Last updated: September 2026

1. Who We Are

Matrix Intelligence Consulting ("we", "our", or "us") is operated by MI - CONSULTING, s.r.o., a company registered in Slovakia (IČO: 36215317), with registered office at Čsl. odboja 98, 040 11 Košice, Slovakia. We are the data controller for any personal information collected through our website, services, and client engagements.

2. Information We Collect

We collect and process the following categories of information:

  • Contact information — name, email address, company name, and job title when you fill out our contact form, book a meeting, or email us directly.
  • Communication data — contents of emails, meeting bookings, and messages you send us.
  • Client project data — where we act as a data processor under contract, we handle technical data, code repositories, and system configurations strictly as directed by the client.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use your information for the following purposes:

  • To respond to inquiries and schedule consultations
  • To deliver consulting and engineering services under contract
  • To send occasional service-related updates (not marketing — we do not send newsletters)
  • To improve our website and service delivery
  • To comply with legal obligations under Slovak and EU law

4. Legal Basis for Processing (GDPR)

Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), we process personal data on the following lawful bases:

  • Consent — when you voluntarily contact us or book a meeting
  • Contractual necessity — when we deliver services under a signed agreement
  • Legitimate interest — for basic business operations
  • Legal obligation — for tax, accounting, and regulatory compliance

5. Data Sharing & Third Parties

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data. We share data only with:

  • Google Workspace — for email (Gmail), calendar (Google Calendar), and meeting scheduling. Google's privacy policy applies to data processed through these services.
  • Google Fonts — this page requests font styles and files from fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com. When your browser makes those requests, Google receives network request information, including your IP address and browser request details, and handles it under the Google Privacy Policy.
  • Service providers — hosting and infrastructure providers who process data on our behalf under strict data processing agreements.
  • Legal authorities — when required by law or to protect our legal rights.

Our site does not load advertising or analytics scripts. If you follow an external booking or service link, the destination provider's privacy terms apply.

6. Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary:

  • Inquiry and contact data: up to 2 years after last correspondence
  • Client project data: as specified in the client contract, typically 5 years for legal compliance

7. Your Rights

Under GDPR, you have the right to:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you
  • Rectify inaccurate or incomplete data
  • Erase your data (right to be forgotten), subject to legal retention requirements
  • Restrict or object to processing
  • Data portability — receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format
  • Withdraw consent at any time

To exercise any of these rights, email us at contact [at] miconsulting.sk. We will respond within 30 days.

8. Cookies

The reviewed website code does not set analytics, advertising, or session cookies and does not load advertising or analytics scripts. The remote Google Fonts requests described above are network requests to Google rather than cookies set by this website. External destinations you choose to visit may use cookies under their own policies.

9. Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect personal data, including encryption in transit (TLS), access controls, and regular security reviews. Client project data is handled within your infrastructure or isolated environments per contractual agreement.

10. Contact & Supervisory Authority

For privacy-related inquiries, contact us at contact [at] miconsulting.sk.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Slovak Data Protection Authority (Úrad na ochranu osobných údajov Slovenskej republiky) at dataprotection.gov.sk.
