E. PROVISION OF DATA

Where data is provided on the grounds of the legal bases referred to in Article 6(1)(b), (c) and (f) of the GDPR, the provision of data is necessary in order to pursue the aforementioned purposes. Where data is provided on the grounds of the legal basis of consent referred to in Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR, the provision of data is purely optional and the failure to provide the data or the failure to grant the aforementioned consent will prevent the purposes of profiling, marketing and data enrichment from being pursued, but will not prevent the user from registering on the Website or App or from using the services agreed under a contract.

The data will be processed by:

  • a. employees and partners of the data controllers who have been authorised to collect, use, disclose or process the personal data;

In the event that the processing is based on the user’s consent or on the contract and that it is processed automatically, the user has the right to be sent their data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format and, where technically feasible, to have it transmitted to another controller without hindrance.

Users have the right to withdraw their consent, at any time, to the processing of their data for marketing and/or profiling purposes and to object to the processing of their data for marketing purposes, including for profiling related to direct marketing.

If the user prefers, they can ask to be contacted for such purposes solely via traditional methods, and can object to receiving communications solely through automated means.

Users also have the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority in the Member State in which they normally live or work or in the State in which the alleged breach occurred.

I. DATA PROCESSING FOR BROWSER PURPOSES

In the course of their normal operation, the IT systems and software used to run the Website and App acquire certain personal data. This data transfer is inherent to the use of internet communication protocols.
Such data is not collected for the purpose of identifying a particular data subject but, due to its nature, could, when processed and combined with other data held by third parties, enable users to be identified.
Data that may be collected in this way includes the user’s IP address, type of browser or operating system, URI (Uniform Resource Idenfier), domain name and address of the referring/exit pages, time at which the server request was made, the method used and data on the response received, additional browsing data (see our Cookies Policy) and other data relating to the user’s operating system or computer set-up.
This data may also be used to identify a user and determine liability in the event of any cybercrimes against the Website or App.
