What are your rights?

You have rights in order to keep control over your personal data. If you have a question or a problem with how we use your data, please contact us.

1. Guarantee of a fair and lawful processing

Your personal data are always processed for the legitimate purposes stated at point 4. They are collected and treated in a suitable, relevant and non-excessive manner, and are not kept longer than required for achieving the targeted aims.

All technical and security measures were taken to limit as much as possible the risks of illegal, unauthorised access and processing of your personal data. In case of intrusion in its computer systems, Zinacor shall immediately take all measures required for reducing damage to the minimum.

2. Right of access

If you can prove your identity, you can gain access to information on the processing of your personal data. Thus, you have the right to know the purpose of the processing, the categories of data concerned, the categories of recipients to whom data are sent, the criteria used for determining how long data are kept, and the rights you can exercise over your data.

3. Right to rectification

Inaccurate or incomplete personal data can be rectified. The users are primarily responsible for themselves making the required changes in their “user account”, but you can also send us a request for rectification in writing.

4. Right to erasure (or “right to be forgotten”)

Moreover, you have the right to obtain the erasure of your personal data under the following circumstances:

• Your personal data are no longer required given the purpose;
• You withdraw your consent for the processing of your data and there is no other legal basis for the processing;
• You have validly exercised your right to object;
• Your data were subject to illegal processing;
• Your data must be deleted in order to comply with a legal obligation.

Zinacor decides at its own initiative about the presence of the above-listed criteria.

5. Right to restrict processing

Under certain circumstances, you have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted, namely in case of contesting the accuracy of your personal data, if your data have been unlawfully processed, if your data are required within the framework of a legal claim or for allowing Zinacor the time to check if you have validly exercised your right to erasure.

6. Right to object

Moreover, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data. Zinacor shall stop the processing of your personal data unless it succeeds in proving that there are compelling legitimate reasons in favour of the processing, which prevail over your right to object.

7. Right to data portability

You have the right to obtain the personal data you provided us with, in a structured, machine-readable format that is commonly used. At your request, these data can be transferred to another service provider, unless this is technically impossible.

8. Right to withdraw your consent

You can withdraw your consent to the processing of your personal data at any time. The withdrawal of your consent does not affect the validity of processing operations prior to its withdrawal.
