HOMAD PERSONAL DATA POLICY - COMPLIANCE
HOMAD undertakes every effort to comply fully with the applicable national and EU legislation on the protection of personal data and, in particular, with the arrangements and requirements laid down in the General Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016. In doing so, HOMAD has set up and follows protocols of operation, compliance and monitoring for the lawful, fair and accurate processing of personal data in a proportionate manner to the purposes for which the personal data are collected, as described below, through the use of appropriate organisational and technical measures and modern technological means, such as encryption, pseudonymisation, and under the principles of minimisation of the data collected, the determination of the purpose for which the personal data are being processed, as well as the storage period. To this end, HOMAD employs well informed and properly trained staff in order to ensure respect of privacy, confidentiality and integrity of personal data and of the general principles laid down by the General Regulation and to provide the appropriate and necessary safeguards for the lawfulness of the processing. In accordance with the requirements of the General Regulation, HOMAD as the controller has updated all the contracts of its employees and external staff in order to provide better services and to ensure the maximum protection for personal data. In addition, it makes every effort to ensure that the cooperating third parties which are processing the personal data of its employees and clients are properly certified and trained and act in accordance with explicit and clear instructions, so that the processing on behalf of HOMAD fulfils all the requirements of the General Regulation.
COLLECTION AND USE OF PERSONAL DATA
This website does not collect personal data of visitors through Cookies. Data which may fall within the scope of the concept of personal data referred to in Article 4 of Regulation (EU) No 679/2016 shall be collected and processed only in the event that a visitor requests an electronic quote for the purchase of any HOMAD product by telephone or e-mail. The information requested from HOMAD in this case is the minimum possible and only the absolutely necessary (e.g. name and e-mail address) for the purpose of facilitating the communication with the user/visitor and (b) the drawing up of the financial quote. When sending financial offers, at the request of a user/visitor and before the final registration of their data, users/visitors receive information about the intention of HOMAD to collect and process their data for the above purposes only. In addition, they are always asked to give their explicit consent to the collection and processing of their data by HOMAD, clearly specifying the purposes for which these data are to be collected and processed. By sending an email containing a financial offer, the visitor/user is informed by means of a standard footnote for (a) the terms of use of the service; (b) the HOMAD policy for personal data; (c) the rights of the user (e.g. correction of data, withdrawal of consent, withdrawal request, etc.), as well as for the modalities for the exercise of those rights. HOMAD maintains and stores the above personal data for the reasonable time required until the relevant sales contract (electronic ordering, payment of the sale price, etc.) is drawn up. In the case of the electronic preparation of a contract for the sale of any product of the company, HOMAD requests, collects and stores the minimum and strictly necessary personal data of the contractor/user/visitor (name, address, contact telephone numbers, e-mail address, fiscal registration number) for the purpose of (a) the proper fulfilment of the sales contract, (b) the organisation of its client base, (c) the handling and organisation of the orders, (d) the shipment and delivery of the goods to the buyer-client and (e) the issue of the legal purchase documents and the keeping of its accounting records under the terms of the applicable legislation. In the event that a sales contract between HOMAD and the user/visitor is not prepared (non-acceptance of the submitted financial offer) and provided that the user does not explicitly grant his consent to the collection and storage of his transferred personal data, HOMAD will automatically and definitely delete all data or information, which it received by email or telephone, at the pre-contractual stage. HOMAD reserves the right to keep a record of the consents received from each visitor/user, as well as of any later communication with them concerning the collection and processing of their personal data, in order to protect its legitimate interests.
In all cases, where the information and data is acquired by HOMAD from data subjects spontaneously and without its own participation and initiative (e.g. by unilateral and unannounced sending by the data subjects), HOMAD shall automatically and definitively delete any corresponding information received without its own initiative, consent and request.
Before disclosing the personal data of a third person to HOMAD the user must first have obtained the consent of the person concerned by those personal data, both in terms of disclosure and processing of such data, in accordance with the present policy and the requirements of the General Regulation.
HOMAD S.A.. commits to make every effort to preserve the integrity of the above data, taking every care at technical and organisational level. The data collected will not be shared, communicated and otherwise knowingly delivered to third persons, nor transferred outside the EU for purposes of direct marketing of its services or any other third party, or for any other reason, without the prior express consent of the persons concerned.
