  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, including third countries where the European Commission has not conducted an assessment of the level of compliance.

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

The data protection officer can, upon request, provide you with more information about data transfers.

 

  1. SECURITY MEASURES

Thanks to the technical and organizational measures we take, we can guarantee a level of security consistent with the risks to the rights and freedoms of individuals regarding the points mentioned in section 2. To this end, we take into account the origin, scope, context, costs, and state of knowledge, as well as the purposes of the processing and the identified risks.

In addition, we comply with the PCI DSS security standard for the payment card industry, 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 necessary to conclude or perform the contract between you and us.

This is how we can offer and perform customer identification automation and “payment in 4 installments.” The basis for this operation is the analysis of various variables concerning the type of products, the services ordered, or the 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 request human intervention even though the decisions are automated; you will thus be able to give your opinion and/or object to the automated decision.

 

  1. POLICY UPDATES AND REVISION

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