DEFINITIONS

This Privacy Policy is supported in terms used by the European legislator in the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The Privacy Policy must be readable and understandable to the general public, customers and business partners.

For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, it is understood by:

▪ Personal data – Personal data means any information that, relating to one other, allow identifying or making identifiable a live individual. Different types of information that relate to one other to identify an individual also constitute personal data. Any personal data that has been anonymised, encrypted or pseudonymised that may, in any way, be identifiable again constitutes personal data. An identifiable natural person is one that can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by referencing an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier, or one or more specific factors of the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural, or social identity of that natural person.

▪ Data subject – The data subject is any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data is processed by the controller.

▪ Data treatment – treatment is any operation or set of operations that is performed on personal data or sets of personal data (whether or not by automated means), such as collection, recording, organisation, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, dissemination by transmission, disclosure or availability, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction, regardless of the way it is performed (digital and/or hard copy).

▪ Treatment restriction – The restriction of treatment consists of the identification of personal data stored with the aim of limiting treatment thereof in the future.

▪ Pseudonymisation –Pseudonymisation is the treatment of personal data in such a way that personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without using supplementary information, provided that such supplementary information is kept separately and is subject to technical and organisational measures to ensure that personal data cannot be attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.

▪ Controller – the Controller is the person, natural or legal, public or private, public authority, agency or other body that, individually or jointly, determines the purposes and means of treatment of personal data; where the purposes and means of such treatment are determined by Union or Member State law, the controller or the specific criteria applicable to their nomination may be provided for by Union or Member State law.

▪ Subcontractor – The Subcontractor is a natural or legal person, public or private, public authority, agency or other body that treats personal data in the name and on behalf of the data controller.

▪ Cross-border treatment – cross-border treatment of personal data occurs when a data controller or subcontractor treats data in a number of Member States or is likely to affect data subjects in more than one Member State.

▪ Consent – The consent of the data subject is a freely given, specific, informed, and unequivocal manifestation of the will of the data subject – by means of a statement or unequivocal positive act – that the personal data relating to them should be the object of treatment.
