  1. TRANSFERS OUTSIDE THE EUROPEAN UNION

Most of the time, your data is kept within the European Union.

However, when our service providers are located in countries outside the European Union, we share some of your data with third countries, such as third countries where the European Commission has not made an assessment of the level of compliance.

In this case, we do what is necessary to ensure that this data sharing is done in compliance with the relevant regulations and that the protection of your privacy and fundamental rights is guaranteed (for example, by using contractual clauses of the European Commission).

The data protection delegate can, if you request it, give you more information about the data transfer.

 

  1. SECURITY MEASURES

Thanks to the technical and organizational measures we take, we can guarantee a level of security in accordance with the risks to the rights and freedoms of individuals with regard to the points mentioned in point 2. To do this, we take into account the origin, scope, context, costs and state of knowledge, the purposes of processing, but also the identified risks.

In addition, we are up to date with the PCI DSS payment card industry security standard, which reflects our commitment to security.

 

  1. PROFILING AND AUTOMATED DECISION-MAKING

Through the automated processing we use (profiling for example), you are subject to legal effects that affect you.

All of this is essential for the conclusion or execution of the contract that binds you to us.

This is how we can propose and carry out the automation of customer identification and "payment in 4 installments". The foundations of this operation are related to the analysis of different variables concerning the type of products, the services ordered, or the customer profile.

If the risk is assessed with these statistics as being too great (fraud/unpaid), then this payment method will not be offered.

However, if you wish, you can obtain human intervention, although the decisions are automated, you will then be able to give your opinion and/or oppose the automatic decision.

 

  1. POLICY UPDATE AND REVISION

Our personal data policy will be updated whenever necessary to always be in line with the applicable regulations for the protection of your data (at least every three (3) years).
