Such partners may provide information and advice on the operations carried out by TELEFÉRICO. In relation to payments, two procedures apply:

  • You pay the relevant amounts to the partner, in which case the partner will be the data controller. In these circumstances, we recommend that you read the partner’s policies and other terms and conditions.
  • You make the relevant payments directly via our website, in which case the present privacy policy will apply.

Users’ personal data will not be passed to any third party, unless subject to the consent of the user, or unless there exists some other legal basis for the data processing pursuant to Article 6 of the GDPR such as, for example, any requirement for TELEFÉRICO to comply with a legal obligation (lawfulness of data processing).

Without prejudice to the above, TELEFÉRICO has various entities that manage data processing under its direction, and access to the data is allowed by them, as trusted suppliers, to the extent that is strictly necessary for the delivery of services contracted with them. Such data processors operate under a contract which complies with the conditions and guarantees set down in Article 28 of the GDPR, and the relevant controls, inspections and audits are undertaken in this area to check that such data processors strictly comply with the signed contracts to this end and with the applicable legislation.

WILL ANY INTERNATIONAL TRANSFER OF YOUR DATA OCCUR?

You are advised that, in general, we do not expect to make any international transfer of your personal data, and we adopt the necessary measures and guarantees in compliance with current protection of personal data legislation.

PURPOSE OF THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA

In order to register, access and subsequently use the Application, the User must voluntarily provide details of a personal nature (essentially identity and contact details) to be incorporated into automated systems owned by TELEFÉRICO.

The gathering, storage, modification, structuring and ultimately, the removal of the data provided by Users constitute data processing by the Data Controller, for the purpose of ensuring the correct operation of the Application, maintaining the provision of services and/or business to the User, and for the management, administration, information needs, delivery and improvement of the service.

The personal data provided by the User—in particular, the email address—can also be used for sending out bulletins (newsletters), in addition to marketing communications and/or advertising of the Application, provided that the User has previously given their express consent to receive communications by electronic means.

LEGAL BASIS

The processing of the User’s data is undertaken and justified on the following legal bases:

  • The customer’s request for information and/or the contracting of the service of the Application, the terms and conditions of which will, in all cases, be made available to the User in advance, for their express consent.
  • The free, specific, informed and unequivocal consent of the User, who will have access to the present privacy policy—which the User must accept by means of a declaration or a clear confirmatory action, such as ticking a box provided for that purpose.

In the event that the User does not provide their data to TELEFÉRICO, or does so in a way that is inaccurate or incomplete, they will be unable to proceed to use the Application.

STORAGE OF PERSONAL DATA

The personal data provided by the User will be stored in the Data Controller’s systems and databases for as long as the User continues to use the Application, or until they request its removal.

In order to fulfil the legal responsibilities deriving from the data processing, the data will be stored for a minimum of five years.

RECIPIENTS

The data will not be communicated to any third party outside TELEFÉRICO, except where required by law—and, in any case, not without the User’s prior consent.

Furthermore, TELEFÉRICO may allow access by, or pass the personal data supplied by the User to third-party service providers with whom the company has signed data processing agreements, and who will only access the information in order to provide a service on behalf of the Data Controller.

RETENTION OF DATA

TELEFÉRICO advises the User that, as a provider of a data hosting service, and in accordance with the terms of Spanish Law 34/2002, 11 July, on Information Society Services and E-Commerce (LSSI), the company will retain for a maximum period of 12 months the information that is essential to identify the origins of the data stored and the time at which delivery of the service commenced.

The retention of this data does not affect the confidentiality of the communications, and can only be used within the framework of a criminal investigation or for the purpose of safeguarding public security, by being made available to the Ministry’s judges and/or courts who request them.

Any communication of data to State Law Enforcement Authorities will be effected in accordance with the terms of the protection of personal data regulations, and with all due respect to the same.

PROTECTION OF THE STORED DATA

The Data Controller will adopt the measures needed to ensure the security, integrity and confidentiality of the data in accordance with the terms of 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, and Spanish Organic Law 3/2018, 5 December, regarding the Protection of Personal Data and Guarantee of Digital Rights (LOPDGDD).

While the Data Controller will make and hold copies of the stored content on its servers, the entity cannot be held responsible for accidental loss or erasure of data by Users. Similarly, it cannot guarantee the full recovery of data erased by Users, as the said data may have been destroyed and/or modified during the time that will have elapsed since the last security copy was made.

The services supplied or delivered via the Application (apart from specific back-up services) do not include the recovery of content stored in security copies made by the Data Controller if the data has been lost through the actions of the User.

AUTHORISATION AND CANCELLATION OF DATA

To keep your personal data up-to-date it is necessary that you inform us about any change to them, otherwise we shall not answer for their veracity. Likewise, the User declares that all information they provide is accurate and valid for the purpose it is requested for and that it is provided by the User personally.

EXERCISE OF RIGHTS

TELEFÉRICO advises the User that the User holds the rights of access, rectification, limitation, erasure, objection and portability. These rights may be exercised by application via email to the email address info@volcanoteide.com
