Processing techniques

The Owner employs appropriate security measures to protect the Data from unauthorized access, disclosure, modification, or destruction.

The data is processed using computers and/or IT-enabled tools, in accordance with organizational procedures and modes that are strictly related to the stated purposes. In addition to the Owner, certain types of persons in charge, involved with the operation of CSA Active (administration, sales, marketing, legal, system administration) or external parties (such as third-party technical service providers, mail carriers, hosting providers, IT companies, communications agencies) appointed, if necessary, as Data Processors by the Owner, may have access to the Data. The Owner can provide you with an updated list of these parties at any time.

 

Processing is permitted under the law.

If one of the following applies, the Owner may process Personal Data about Users:

  • Users have given their permission to use their information for one or more specific purposes. Note: Under some laws, the Owner may be allowed to process Personal Data until the User objects (“opts-out”), without relying on consent or any of the other legal bases listed below. This does not apply, however, if the processing of Personal Data is governed by European data protection legislation.
  • Data must be provided in order to fulfill the terms of a contract with the User and/or any pre-contractual obligations;
  • processing is required to comply with a legal obligation that the Owner is bound by;
  • processing relates to a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of the Owner’s official authority;
  • Processing is required for the purposes of the Owner’s or a third party’s legitimate interests.
  • In any case, the Owner will gladly assist in determining the specific legal basis for the processing, including whether the provision of Personal Data is a statutory or contractual requirement, or a condition of entering into a contract.

 

Place

The Owner’s operating offices and any other locations where the parties involved in the processing are located process the Data.

Data transfers may involve transferring the User’s Data to a country other than their own, depending on the User’s location. Users can check the section containing details about the processing of Personal Data to learn more about the location where such transferred Data is processed.

Users have the right to know the legal basis for Data transfers to countries outside the European Union, as well as to any international organization governed by public international law or established by two or more countries, such as the United Nations, as well as the security measures taken by the Owner to protect their Data.

Users can learn more about such transfers by reading the relevant sections of this document or contacting the Owner using the information provided in the contact section.

Time spent in retention

Personal Data collected for the Owner’s legitimate interests will be kept for as long as necessary to achieve those goals. Users can learn more about the Owner’s legitimate interests by reading the relevant sections of this document or contacting the Owner directly.

When the User has given consent to such processing, the Owner may be allowed to keep Personal Data for a longer period of time as long as that consent is not revoked. Furthermore, the Owner may be required to retain Personal Data for a longer period of time if required to do so by law or by an authority.

Personal Data will be deleted after the retention period has expired. As a result, after the retention period has expired, the right to access, the right to erasure, the right to rectification, and the right to data portability cannot be enforced.
