  1. TRANSFERS OUTSIDE THE EUROPEAN UNION

Most of the time, your data is stored 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 carried out an assessment of the level of compliance.

In this scenario, we take the necessary steps to ensure that this data sharing is done in accordance with the relevant regulations and that the protection of your privacy and fundamental rights is guaranteed (for example, through the use of contractual clauses from the European Commission).

The data protection delegation 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 that is appropriate to the risks to the rights and freedoms of natural persons with regard to the points mentioned in point 2. For this, we take into account the origin, scope, context, costs and state of knowledge, the purposes of the processing, but also the identified risks.

Furthermore, we are compliant with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), which reflects our commitment to security.

 

  1. PROFILING AND AUTOMATED DECISION-MAKING

Due to 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 offer and implement automated customer identification and "4x payment". The foundations of this system are linked to the analysis of various variables concerning the type of products, services ordered, or customer profile.

If the risk is assessed using these statistics as being too high (fraud/non-payment), then this payment method will not be offered.

However, if you wish, you can obtain human intervention even though the decisions are automated, so you can give your opinion and/or oppose the automated decision.

 

  1. POLICY UPDATE AND REVISION

Our policy regarding personal data will be updated whenever necessary to ensure it is always in compliance with applicable data protection regulations (at least every three (3) years).
