Register of Personal Data

In compliance with the GDPR and the LOPD-GDD, we inform you that personal data collected by LITW through the forms made available on its pages will be incorporated into, and processed in, our file for the purpose of facilitating, expediting and fulfilling the commitments established between LITW and the User, maintaining the relationship established through the forms completed by the User, or dealing with a request or query made by the User. Likewise, in accordance with the GDPR and the LOPD-GDD, unless the exception set out in Article 30(5) of the GDPR applies, a record of processing activities is maintained, specifying, according to their purposes, the processing activities carried out and the other particulars required under the GDPR.

Principles applicable to the processing of personal data

The processing of the User’s personal data shall be subject to the following principles, set out in Article 5 of the GDPR and Article 4 et seq. of Organic Law 3/2018, of 5 December, on the Protection of Personal Data and the Guarantee of Digital Rights:

Categories of personal data

The categories of data processed by LITW are identification data only. Under no circumstances are special categories of personal data, within the meaning of Article 9 of the GDPR, processed.

Legal basis for the processing of personal data

The legal basis for the processing of personal data is consent. LITW undertakes to obtain the User’s express and verifiable consent for the processing of their personal data for one or more specific purposes.

The User has the right to withdraw their consent at any time. It shall be as easy to withdraw consent as it is to give it. As a general rule, withdrawal of consent will not affect the User’s ability to use the Website.

Where the User must or may provide their data through forms in order to make enquiries, request information, or for reasons relating to the content of the Website, they will be informed if completion of any of the fields is mandatory because such information is essential for the proper handling of the request in question.

Purposes for which personal data is processed

Personal data is collected and managed by LITW for the purpose of facilitating, expediting and fulfilling the commitments established between the Website and the User, maintaining the relationship established through the forms completed by the User, or dealing with a request or enquiry.

The data may also be used for commercial purposes of personalisation, operational and statistical purposes, and activities related to LITW’s corporate purpose, as well as for the extraction and storage of data and marketing studies, in order to tailor the Content offered to the User and to improve the quality, functioning and navigation of the Website.

At the time personal data is obtained, the User will be informed of the specific purpose or purposes for which the personal data will be processed; that is, the use or uses that will be made of the information collected.

Personal data retention periods

Personal data will only be retained for the minimum period necessary for the purposes of its processing and, in any event, only for the following period: 5 years, or until the User requests its deletion.

At the time personal data is obtained, the User will be informed of the period during which the personal data will be retained or, where this is not possible, the criteria used to determine that period.

Recipients of personal data

The User’s personal data will be shared with the following recipients or categories of recipients:

Should the Data Controller intend to transfer personal data to a third country or international organisation, the User will be informed, at the time the personal data is obtained, of the third country or international organisation to which the data is intended to be transferred, as well as of the existence or absence of a European Commission adequacy decision.

Personal data of minors

In accordance with Article 8 of the GDPR and Article 7 of Organic Law 3/2018, of 5 December, on the Protection of Personal Data and the Guarantee of Digital Rights, only persons aged 14 or over may lawfully give their consent to the processing of their personal data by LITW. Where the data subject is under 14, the consent of a parent or guardian is required for the processing to be considered lawful, and it will only be lawful to the extent that such consent has been given.

Secrecy and security of personal data

LITW undertakes to adopt the technical and organisational measures necessary, in line with the level of security appropriate to the risk associated with the data collected, so as to guarantee the security of personal data and prevent its accidental or unlawful destruction, loss or alteration, whether transmitted, stored or otherwise processed, and to prevent unauthorised disclosure of, or access to, such data.

The Website has an SSL (Secure Socket Layer) certificate, which ensures that personal data is transmitted securely and confidentially, with data transmission between the server and the User, and vice versa, being fully encrypted.

However, since LITW cannot guarantee that the internet is impregnable, nor the complete absence of hackers or others who may fraudulently gain access to personal data, the Data Controller undertakes to notify the User, without undue delay, of any personal data breach likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons. In accordance with Article 4 of the GDPR, a “personal data breach” means a breach of security leading to the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss or alteration of personal data transmitted, stored or otherwise processed, or unauthorised disclosure of, or access to, such data.

Personal data will be treated as confidential by the Data Controller, who undertakes to inform its employees, associates and any other person to whom it makes the information accessible, and to ensure, by way of a legal or contractual obligation, that such confidentiality is respected by them.

Rights arising from the processing of personal data

The User has, and may therefore exercise against the Data Controller, the following rights recognised under the GDPR and Organic Law 3/2018, of 5 December, on the Protection of Personal Data and the Guarantee of Digital Rights:

The User may therefore exercise their rights by means of written communication addressed to the Data Controller, with the reference “GDPR-litwstudio.com”, specifying:

This request, together with any accompanying documents, may be sent to the following email address:

Email: info@litwstudio.com

Links to third-party websites

The Website may include hyperlinks or links providing access to web pages belonging to third parties other than LITW, and which are therefore not operated by LITW. The owners of such websites will have their own data protection policies and will each be responsible for their own files and their own privacy practices.

Complaints to the supervisory authority

Should the User consider that there is a problem or breach of current legislation in the way their personal data is being processed, they have the right to effective judicial protection and to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the State where they have their habitual residence, place of work, or the place where the alleged breach occurred. In the case of Spain, the supervisory authority is the Spanish Data Protection Agency (Agencia Española de Protección de Datos) (https://www.aepd.es/).

II. ACCEPTANCE OF, AND CHANGES TO, THIS PRIVACY POLICY

It is necessary for the User to have read and agreed to the terms regarding the protection of personal data set out in this Privacy Policy, and to have accepted the processing of their personal data, in order for the Data Controller to be able to carry out such processing in the manner, within the periods, and for the purposes indicated. Use of the Website implies acceptance of its Privacy Policy.

LITW reserves the right to amend its Privacy Policy, at its own discretion or as a result of a change in legislation, case law, or guidance from the Spanish Data Protection Agency. Changes or updates to this Privacy Policy will not be notified explicitly to the User. The User is advised to check this page periodically to keep informed of the latest changes or updates.

This Privacy Policy has been updated to comply with 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 (GDPR), and with Organic Law 3/2018, of 5 December, on the Protection of Personal Data and the Guarantee of Digital Rights.
