What will we use your data for?

In general, your personal data will be used so that we can interact with you and provide our services.

It may also be used for other activities, such as sending you advertising or promoting our activities.

Why do we need to use your data?

Your personal data is necessary for us to interact with you and provide our services. To this end, we will provide you with a series of checkboxes that will allow you to decide clearly and simply how your personal information is used.

Who will have access to the information we ask you for?

In general, only duly authorized staff of our organization will have access to the information we ask you for.

Likewise, entities that need access to your personal information so that we can provide our services may also have access to it. For example, our bank will know your details if payment for our services is made by card or bank transfer.

Likewise, public or private entities to which we are required to provide your personal data in order to comply with a law will also have access to your information. For example, tax law requires us to provide the Spanish Tax Agency with certain information about financial transactions that exceed a certain amount.

If, apart from the cases mentioned above, we need to disclose your personal information to other entities, we will first ask for your permission through clear options that will allow you to decide on this.

How will we protect your data?

We will protect your data with effective security measures based on the risks involved in using your information.

To this end, our organization has approved a Data Protection Policy, and annual checks and audits are carried out to verify that your personal data is secure at all times.

Will we send your data to other countries?

Around the world, some countries are safe for your data and others are less so. For example, the European Union is a safe environment for your data. Our policy is not to send your personal information to any country that is not safe from a data protection standpoint.

If, in order to provide the service, it is essential to send your data to a country that is not as safe as Spain, we will always ask for your permission first and apply effective security measures to reduce the risks of sending your personal information to another country.

How long will we keep your data?

We will keep your data for the duration of our relationship and for as long as the law requires us to. Once the applicable legal periods have ended, we will delete it securely and in an environmentally friendly way.

What are your data protection rights?

At any time, you can contact us to find out what information we hold about you, correct it if it is inaccurate, and delete it once our relationship has ended, where legally possible.

You also have the right to request that your information be transferred to another organization. This right is called “portability” and may be useful in certain situations.

To exercise any of these rights, you must send a written request to our address, together with a copy of your national ID card (DNI) so that we can identify you.

At our organization’s offices, we have specific forms for exercising these rights, and we can help you fill them out.

To learn more about your data protection rights, you can visit the website of the Spanish Data Protection Agency (www.agpd.es).

Can you withdraw your consent if you change your mind later?

You can withdraw your consent at any time if you change your mind about how your data is used.

For example, if you were once interested in receiving advertising about our products or services but no longer wish to receive it, you can let us know using the objection form available at our organization’s offices.

If you believe your rights have not been respected, where can you file a complaint?

If you believe that our organization has not respected your rights, you can file a complaint with the Spanish Data Protection Agency through any of the following channels:

Will we create profiles about you?

Our policy is not to create profiles of the users of our services.

However, there may be situations in which, for service, commercial or other purposes, we need to create information profiles about you. One example could be using your purchase or service history to offer you products or services tailored to your tastes or needs.

In that case, we will apply effective security measures that protect your information at all times from unauthorized people who may try to use it for their own benefit.

Will we use your data for other purposes?

Our policy is not to use your data for purposes other than those we have explained. If, however, we need to use your data for different activities, we will always ask for your permission first through clear options that will allow you to decide on this.
