On May 25, 2018, a new data privacy law known as the EU General Data Protection Regulation (or the “GDPR”) becomes effective. The GDPR requires ARTION Conferences & Events to provide Users with more information about the processing of their Personal Data.
Legal grounds for processing your Personal Data according to The GDPR
The legal grounds for us processing your Personal Data for the purposes set out in above will typically be because:
You provided your consent,
• It is necessary for our contractual relationship,
• The processing is necessary for us to comply with our legal or regulatory obligations,
• The processing is in our legitimate interest as an event planning and organizing platform.
Transfers of Personal Data
ARTION Conferences & Events, as a company, may be in need of transferring your Personal Data outside of the country from which it was originally provided. This may be intra-group or to third parties that we work with who may be located in jurisdictions outside the EEA, Switzerland and the UK which have no data protection laws or laws that are less strict compared with those in Europe. Whenever we transfer Personal Data outside of the EEA, Switzerland or the UK, we take legally required steps to make sure that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your Personal Data.
Which Personal Data We Might Transfer: In order to process booked and purchased services within our third-party platforms, we can transfer personal data of our clients, their defined sub-users, their customers and third-party service providers if defined in our system. The personal data we might transfer includes following items;
In case the event organization is held in Greece, we do not transfer personal data to another country but keep them in our servers.
Personal Data retention
We retain your Personal Data for as long as necessary to provide you our services, or for other important purposes such as complying with legal obligations, resolving disputes, and enforcing our agreements.
Your rights
Data protection law provides you with rights in respect of Personal Data that we hold about you, including the right to request a copy of the Personal Data, request that we rectify, restrict or delete your Personal Data, object to profiling and unsubscribe from marketing communications. Please note that requests to exercise data protection rights will be assessed by us on a case-by-case basis. There may be circumstances where we are not legally required to comply with your request because of the laws in your jurisdiction or because of exemptions provided for in data protection legislation.
If you have a complaint about how we handle your Personal Data, please get in touch with us. If you are not happy with how we have attempted to resolve your complaint, you may contact the relevant data protection authority as well.
ARTION Conferences & Events as a data controller and a data processor
EU data protection law makes a distinction between organizations that process Personal Data for their own purposes (known as “data controllers”) and organizations that process personal data on behalf of other organizations (known as “data processors”). If you have a question or complaint about how your Personal Data is handled, these should always be directed to the relevant data controller since they are the ones with primary responsibility for your Personal Data.
ARTION Conferences & Events may act as either a data controller or a data processor in respect of your Personal Data, depending on the circumstances.
