Register of Personal Data

In compliance with the GDPR and the LOPD-GDD, we inform you that the personal data collected by ECUAS through the forms on its pages will be incorporated and processed in our files in order to facilitate, expedite and fulfil the commitments established between ECUAS and the User, or to maintain the relationship established in the forms that the User fills out, or to respond to a request or query. Likewise, in accordance with the provisions of the GDPR and the LOPD-GDD, unless the exception provided for in Article 30.5 of the GDPR applies, a register of processing activities is kept which specifies, according to their purposes, the processing activities carried out and the other circumstances established in the GDPR.

Principles applicable to the processing of personal data

The processing of the User's personal data will be subject to the following principles set out in Article 5 of the GDPR and in Article 4 and following of Organic Law 3/2018, of 5 December, on Personal Data Protection and guarantee of digital rights:

• Principle of lawfulness, fairness and transparency: the User's consent will always be required, after providing fully transparent information about the purposes for which personal data is collected.
• Principle of purpose limitation: personal data will be collected for specified, explicit and legitimate purposes.
• Principle of data minimisation: the personal data collected will be only those strictly necessary in relation to the purposes for which they are processed.
• Principle of accuracy: personal data must be accurate and always kept up to date.
• Principle of storage limitation: personal data will be kept in a form that permits identification of the User for no longer than is necessary for the purposes of its processing.
• Principle of integrity and confidentiality: personal data will be processed in a manner that ensures its security and confidentiality.
• Principle of proactive accountability: the Data Controller will be responsible for ensuring that the above principles are complied with.

Categories of personal data

The categories of data processed on ECUAS are solely 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. ECUAS undertakes to obtain the explicit and verifiable consent of the User 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. It shall be as easy to withdraw consent as to give it. As a general rule, withdrawal of consent shall not affect the use of the Website.

On occasions when the User must or may 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 completion of any of them is mandatory because it is essential for the proper development of the operation carried out.

Purposes of the processing of personal data

Personal data is collected and managed by ECUAS for 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 fills out, or responding to a request or query.

Likewise, the data may be used for commercial purposes of personalisation, operational and statistical purposes, and activities inherent to ECUAS’s corporate purpose, as well as for the extraction, storage of data and marketing studies to adapt the Content offered to the User, as well as to improve the quality, operation and navigation of the Website.

At the time personal data is obtained, the User will be informed about the specific purpose or purposes of the processing to which the personal data will be destined; that is, the use(s) to which the collected information will be put.

Retention periods for personal data

Personal data will only be retained for the minimum time necessary for the purposes of its processing and, in any case, until the User requests its deletion.

At the time personal data is obtained, the User will be informed about the period during which the personal data will be kept, or, when that is not possible, the criteria used to determine this period.

Recipients of personal data

The User's personal data will not be shared with third parties.

In any case, at the time personal data is obtained, the User will be informed about the recipients or categories of recipients of the personal data.

Personal data of minors

Respecting the provisions of Article 8 of the GDPR and Article 7 of Organic Law 3/2018, of 5 December, on Personal Data Protection and guarantee of digital rights, only persons over 14 years of age may give their consent for the lawful processing of their personal data by ECUAS. If the User is under 14 years of age, the consent of parents or guardians will be required for the processing, and it will only be considered lawful to the extent that they have authorised it.

Secrecy and security of personal data

ECUAS undertakes to adopt the necessary technical and organisational measures, according to the level of security appropriate to the risk of the data collected, in order to guarantee the security of personal data and to prevent the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss or alteration of personal data transmitted, stored or otherwise processed, or unauthorised communication of or access to such data.

The Website has an SSL (Secure Socket Layer) certificate, which ensures that personal data is transmitted securely and confidentially, as the transmission of data between the server and the User, and in feedback, is fully encrypted.

However, because ECUAS cannot guarantee the impenetrability of the Internet or the total absence of hackers or others who fraudulently access personal data, the Data Controller undertakes to notify the User without undue delay when a personal data breach occurs that is likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons. Following the provisions of Article 4 of the GDPR, a personal data breach is understood as a breach of security leading to the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure of, or access to, personal data transmitted, stored or otherwise processed.

Personal data will be treated as confidential by the Data Controller, who undertakes to inform and guarantee by means of a legal or contractual obligation that such confidentiality is respected by their employees, associates, and any person to whom they make the information accessible.

Rights arising from the processing of personal data

The User has over ECUAS and may, therefore, exercise against the Data Controller the following rights recognised in the GDPR and Organic Law 3/2018, of 5 December, on Personal Data Protection and guarantee of digital rights:

• Right of access: The User's right to obtain confirmation as to whether ECUAS is processing their personal data or not, and if so, to obtain information about their specific personal data and the processing that ECUAS has carried out or carries out, as well as, among other things, the information available on the origin of such data and the recipients of the communications made or planned.
• Right of rectification: The User's right to have their personal data modified if it is inaccurate or, having regard to the purposes of the processing, incomplete.
• Right of erasure ("the right to be forgotten"): The User's right, unless current legislation provides otherwise, to obtain the deletion of their personal data when it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or processed; the User has withdrawn their consent to the processing and there is no other legal basis; the User objects to the processing and there is no other legitimate reason to continue it; the personal data has been unlawfully processed; the personal data must be deleted to comply with a legal obligation; or the personal data has been obtained as a result of a direct offer of information society services to a minor under 14 years of age. In addition to deleting the data, the Data Controller, taking into account the available technology and the cost of its implementation, must take reasonable steps to inform the controllers who are processing the personal data of the data subject's request for deletion of any links to that personal data.
• Right to restriction of processing: The User's right to restrict the processing of their personal data. The User has the right to obtain 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: Where 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. Where technically possible, the Data Controller shall transmit the data directly to that other controller.
• Right to object: The User's right not to have their personal data processed, or for ECUAS to cease processing it.
• Right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling: The User's right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing of their personal data, including profiling, unless current legislation provides otherwise.

Therefore, the User may exercise their rights by written communication addressed to the Data Controller with the reference "GDPR-https://ecuas.org/", specifying:

• Name, surname(s) of the User and copy of their ID. In cases where representation is permitted, identification of the person representing the User by the same means will also be required, as well as the document accrediting the representation. The photocopy of the ID may be replaced by any other legally valid means that proves identity.
• Request with the specific reasons for the request or information to which access is sought.
• Address for notification purposes.
• Date and signature of the applicant.
• Any document accrediting the request made.

This request and any other accompanying document may be sent to the following address and/or email:

Links to third-party websites

The Website may include hyperlinks or links that allow access to third-party websites other than ECUAS, and which are therefore not operated by ECUAS. The owners of such websites will have their own data protection policies, and they themselves are, in each case, responsible for their own files and their own privacy practices.

Complaints to the supervisory authority

If the User considers that there is a problem or infringement of the current regulations in the way their personal data is being processed, they shall have the right to effective judicial protection and to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the State in which they have their habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement. In Spain, the supervisory authority is the Spanish Data Protection Agency (https://www.aepd.es/).

II. ACCEPTANCE AND CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY

It is necessary that the User has read and agrees with the conditions on the protection of personal data contained in this Privacy Policy, as well as that they accept the processing of their personal data so that the Data Controller can proceed with it in the manner, for the periods and for the purposes indicated. Use of the Website will imply acceptance of its Privacy Policy.

ECUAS reserves the right to modify its Privacy Policy, according to its own criteria, or motivated by a legislative, jurisprudential or doctrinal change of the Spanish Data Protection Agency. Changes or updates to this Privacy Policy will not be explicitly notified to the User. The User is recommended to consult this page periodically to be aware of the latest changes or updates.

This Privacy Policy was updated to comply with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data (GDPR) and Organic Law 3/2018, of 5 December, on Personal Data Protection and guarantee of digital rights.
