The notice presents users with two primary options for accessing content. The first is a free service that includes targeted advertising.

Alternatively, users can opt for a paid subscription, iDNES Premium, which costs 199 Czech Koruna per month.

The notice details the various ways user data may be processed, including creating profiles for personalized content and advertising, measuring ad and content performance, and analyzing audience engagement through statistics.
