Applicable Laws

In accordance with the General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR), this privacy policy complies with the following regulations.

Personal data must be:

1. processed in a lawful, fair and transparent manner with regard to the data subject (lawfulness, fairness, transparency) ;
2. collected for specified, explicit and legitimate purposes and not further processed in a way incompatible with those purposes; further processing for archival purposes in the public interest, for scientific or historical research or for statistical purposes shall not be considered, in accordance with Article 89(1), as incompatible with the original purposes (purpose limitation);
3. adequate, relevant and limited to what is necessary for the purposes for which they are processed (purpose minimisation) ;
4. accurate and, where necessary, kept up to date; all reasonable steps must be taken to ensure that personal data which are inaccurate, having regard to the purposes for which they are processed, are erased or rectified without delay (accuracy);
5. kept in a form which permits identification of data subjects for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which the data are processed; personal data may be kept for longer periods insofar as they will be processed solely for archival purposes in the public interest, for scientific or historical research or for statistical purposes in accordance with Article 89(1), provided that appropriate technical and organisational measures required by the Regulation are implemented to safeguard the rights and freedoms of the data subject (conservation limitation);
6. processed in such a way as to ensure appropriate security of personal data, including protection against unauthorised or unlawful processing and accidental loss, destruction or damage, by means of appropriate technical or organisational measures (integrity and confidentiality).

Processing shall be lawful only if and insofar as at least one of the following conditions is met:

1. the data subject has consented to the processing of his or her personal data for one or more specific purposes;
2. processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party or in order to take steps at the request of the data subject prior to entering into a contract;
3. processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which the controller is subject;
4. processing is necessary in order to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person;
5. processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller;
6. processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party, unless the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject which require the protection of personal data prevail, in particular where the data subject is a child.

For residents of the State of California, this Privacy Policy is intended to comply with the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). If there are any inconsistencies between this document and the CCPA, state law will apply. If we find any inconsistencies, we will amend our policy to comply with the relevant law.
