This contract is a commitment to compliance with GDPR and provides sufficient contractual guarantees for the implementation of appropriate technical and organizational measures, which ensure the protection of your rights.

In terms of the transmission of personal data to recipients outside of our group of companies, we only transmit data to third parties when this is required by law or necessary for the performance of the contract or where you have consented to the transmission. Under these conditions such third party recipients of personal data may be:

  • Other companies within our group for risk controlling due to legal or official obligations.

This may include service providers that provide services on our behalf, such as identity verification services, website hosting, data analysis, information technology and related infrastructure, customer service, email delivery, and auditing services. These service providers may need to access personal data to perform their services.

Service Providers are not authorized to use or disclose your information except as necessary to perform services on our behalf or comply with legal requirements. Service Providers are given the information they need only in order to perform their designated functions, and we do not authorize them to use or disclose any of the provided information for their own marketing or other purposes.

INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS

Some of our external third parties may be based outside the EEA so their processing of your personal data will involve a transfer of data outside the EEA. Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the EEA, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring a safeguard is implemented. Please contact us if you want further information on the mechanism used by us when transferring your personal data out of the EEA.

DATA SECURITY

We recognize the importance of protecting and managing your personal data. Any personal data we process will be treated with the utmost care and security. This section sets out some of the security measures we have in place.

  • Electronic data and databases are stored on secure computer systems with control over access to information using both physical and electronic means,
  • Our staff receive data protection and information security training,
  • We have detailed security and data protection policies which staff are required to follow when they handle your personal data.

As the security of Personal Information depends in part on the security of the device you use to communicate with us and the security you use to protect your credentials, please take appropriate measures to protect this information.

DATA RETENTION

We must retain personal data only for the minimum period necessary for the purposes set out in this Policy. Then, the data shall be canceled. By way of exception, the data may be stored to manage the ongoing claims and litigations, the execution of legal and/or regulatory obligations and/or answer to legally empowered authority requests. 

YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS

Under certain circumstances you have the following rights under data protection laws in relation to your personal data:

  • (i) You have the right to withdraw consent where you have previously given your consent to the processing of your Personal Information. To the extent that the legal basis for our processing of your Personal Information is consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal will not affect the lawfulness of processing before the withdrawal.
  • (ii) You have the right to learn if your Personal Information is being processed by us, obtain disclosure regarding certain aspects of the processing, and obtain a copy of your Personal Information undergoing processing.
  • (iii) You have the right to verify the accuracy of your information and ask for it to be updated or corrected. You also have the right to request us to complete the Personal Information you believe is incomplete.

  • (v) You have the right, under certain circumstances, to restrict the processing of your Personal Information. These circumstances include: the accuracy of your Personal Information is contested by you and we must verify its accuracy; the processing is unlawful, but you oppose the erasure of your Personal Information and request the restriction of its use instead; we no longer need your Personal Information for the purposes of processing, but you require it to establish, exercise or defend your legal claims; you have objected to processing pending the verification of whether our legitimate grounds override your legitimate grounds. Where processing has been restricted, such Personal Information will be marked accordingly and, with the exception of storage, will be processed only with your consent or for the establishment, to exercise or defense of legal claims, for the protection of the rights of another natural, or legal person or for reasons of important public interest.
  • (vi) You have the right, under certain circumstances, to obtain the erasure of your Personal Information from us. These circumstances include: the Personal Information is no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed; you withdraw consent to consent-based processing; you object to the processing under certain rules of applicable data protection law;  and the personal data have been unlawfully processed.

  • (vii) You have the right to receive your Personal Information that you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format and, if technically feasible, to have it transmitted to another controller without any hindrance from us, provided that such transmission does not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.
