The categories of data processed in AVISUAL EUROPE, S.L. are only identifying data. In no case are special categories of personal data processed within the meaning of Article 9 of the GDPR.

Legal basis for the processing of personal data

The legal basis for the processing of personal data is consent. AVISUAL EUROPE, S.L. commits to obtaining the User’s express and verifiable consent for the processing of their personal data for one or more specific purposes.

The User shall have the right to withdraw their consent at any time. Withdrawing consent will be as easy as giving it. As a general rule, the withdrawal of consent will not condition the use of the Website.

On occasions when the User must or can provide their data through forms to make inquiries, request information, or for reasons related to the content of the Website, they will be informed if completing any of them is mandatory because they are essential for the proper execution of the operation.

Purposes of processing personal data

Personal data is collected and managed by AVISUAL EUROPE, S.L. with the purpose of facilitating, expediting, and fulfilling the commitments established between the Website and the User or maintaining the relationship established in the forms that the latter completes or to address a request or inquiry.

Likewise, the data may be used for commercial purposes of personalization, operations and statistics, and activities proper to the corporate purpose of AVISUAL EUROPE, S.L., as well as for the extraction, storage of data and marketing studies to adapt the Content offered to the User, as well as improve the quality, operation and navigation of the Website.

Personal data of minors

Respecting the provisions of Articles 8 of the GDPR and 13 of the RDLOPD, only those over 14 years of age may grant their consent for the lawful processing of their personal data by AVISUAL EUROPE, S.L. If it is a minor under 14 years of age, the consent of parents or guardians will be necessary for the processing, and this will only be considered lawful to the extent that they have authorized it.

Secrecy and security of personal data

AVISUAL EUROPE, S.L. commits to adopting the necessary technical and organizational measures, according to the level of security appropriate to the risk of the data collected, in such a way that the security of personal data is guaranteed and the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss or alteration of personal data transmitted, stored or otherwise processed, or the unauthorized communication or access to such data is avoided.

However, because AVISUAL EUROPE, S.L. cannot guarantee the impregnability of the internet or the total absence of hackers or others who fraudulently access personal data, the Data Controller commits to communicating to the User without undue delay when a personal data security breach occurs that is likely to entail a high risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons. Following the provisions of Article 4 of the GDPR, a personal data security breach is understood to mean any breach of security that occasions the destruction, loss or accidental or unlawful alteration of personal data transmitted, stored or otherwise processed, or the unauthorized communication or access to such data.

Personal data will be treated as confidential by the Data Controller, who commits to inform and guarantee through a legal or contractual obligation that such confidentiality is respected by its employees, associates, and any person to whom the information is made accessible.

Rights derived from the processing of personal data

The User has the following rights recognized in the GDPR over AVISUAL EUROPE, S.L. and can, therefore, exercise them against the Data Controller:

Right of access: It is the User’s right to obtain confirmation of whether AVISUAL EUROPE, S.L. is processing their personal data and, if so, to obtain information about their specific personal data and the processing that AVISUAL EUROPE, S.L. has carried out or is carrying out, as well as, among other things, the available information on the origin of said data and the recipients of the communications made or planned of the same.
Right of rectification: It is the User’s right to have their personal data modified if it is inaccurate or, taking into account the purposes of the processing, incomplete.
Right of erasure (‘right to be forgotten’): It is the User’s right, unless current legislation establishes otherwise, to obtain the erasure of their personal data when these are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or processed; the User has withdrawn their consent to the processing and there is no other legal basis for it; the User objects to the processing and there is no other legitimate reason to continue with it; the personal data have been processed unlawfully; the personal data must be erased in compliance with a legal obligation; or the personal data have been obtained as a result of a direct offer of information society services to a minor under 14 years of age. In addition to erasing the data, the Data Controller, taking into account the available technology and the cost of its application, must adopt reasonable measures to inform the controllers who are processing the personal data of the data subject’s request for erasure of any link to those personal data.
Right to restriction of processing: It is the User’s right to limit the processing of their personal data. The User has the right to obtain the restriction of processing when they contest the accuracy of their personal data; the processing is unlawful; the Data Controller no longer needs the personal data, but the User needs it to make claims; and when the User has objected to the processing.
Right to data portability: In case the processing is carried out by automated means, the User shall have the right to receive from the Data Controller their personal data in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, and to transmit it to another data controller.

2. Cookie policy

Access to this Website may involve the use of cookies. Cookies are small amounts of information that are stored in the browser used by each User – on the different devices they may use for browsing – so that the server remembers certain information that will later and only be read by the server that implemented it.

Cookies that allow a person to be identified are considered personal data. Therefore, the Privacy Policy described above will apply to them. In this sense, for the use of the same, the consent of the User will be necessary. This consent will be communicated, based on an authentic choice, offered through an affirmative and positive decision, before the initial treatment, removable and documented.
