  • Principle of proactive responsibility: The controller is responsible for ensuring that the above principles are complied with.

Categories of personal data

The categories of data processed by Pons & Mansfeld are exclusively identification data. Under no circumstances will special categories of personal data within the meaning of Article 9 of the General Data Protection Regulation be processed.

Legal basis for the processing of personal data

The legal basis for the processing of personal data is consent. Pons & Mansfeld undertakes to obtain the express and verifiable consent of the user to the processing of their personal data for one or more specific purposes.

The user has the right to withdraw their consent at any time. Withdrawing consent is just as easy as giving consent. As a rule, the use of the website is not restricted by the withdrawal of consent.

In cases where the user must or can provide their data via forms in order to make enquiries, request information or for reasons related to the content of the website, they will be informed if the completion of one of these forms is mandatory because it is essential for the correct processing of the operation carried out.

Purposes of the processing for which the personal data are used

Personal data is collected and managed by Pons & Mansfeld in order to facilitate, expedite and fulfil the commitments entered into between the website and the user or to maintain the relationship established in the forms completed by the user or to respond to an enquiry or request.

Likewise, the data may be used for commercial purposes of personalisation, for operational and statistical purposes and for activities related to the corporate purpose of Pons & Mansfeld, as well as for the collection, storage of data and marketing studies to adapt the content offered to the user and to improve the quality, operation and navigation of the website.

At the time the personal data is collected, the user will be informed of the specific purpose or purposes of the processing for which the personal data will be used, i.e. the use or uses that will be made of the information collected.

Retention periods for personal data

Personal data will only be kept for as long as necessary for the purposes for which they are processed and, in any case, only for the following period: 24 months or until the user requests their deletion.

At the time the personal data is collected, the user will be informed of the period for which the personal data will be retained or, if this is not possible, of the criteria used to determine this period.

Recipients of personal data

The user's personal data will not be passed on to third parties.

In any case, the user will be informed of the recipients or categories of recipients of the personal data at the time the personal data is collected.

Personal data of minors

In accordance with the provisions of Article 8 of the GDPR and Article 7 of Organic Law 3/2018, of 5 December, on the Protection of Personal Data and Guarantee of Digital Rights, only persons over 14 years of age may give their consent to the lawful processing of their personal data by Pons & Mansfeld. For children under the age of 14, parental or guardian consent is required for processing, and processing is only lawful if the parent or guardian has given their consent.

Confidentiality and security of personal data

Pons & Mansfeld undertakes to take the necessary technical and organisational measures in accordance with the level of security appropriate to the risk of the data collected in order to ensure the security of personal data and to prevent the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss or alteration of personal data transmitted, stored or otherwise processed, as well as the unauthorised disclosure of or access to such data.

The website has an SSL certificate (Secure Socket Layer), which guarantees secure and confidential transmission of personal data, as the data transfer between the server and the user and during feedback is fully encrypted or scrambled.

However, since Pons & Mansfeld cannot guarantee the impregnability of the Internet or the total absence of hackers or other persons who fraudulently gain access to personal data, the controller undertakes to notify the user without undue delay in the event of a personal data breach that may result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons. According to Article 4 of the General Data Protection Regulation, a personal data breach is any breach of security leading to the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss or alteration of personal data transmitted, stored or otherwise processed, or to the unauthorised disclosure of, or access to, such data.

The controller shall treat personal data confidentially and undertakes to inform its employees, partners and all other persons to whom it makes the information accessible of this and to ensure that this confidentiality is maintained by means of a legal or contractual obligation.

Rights arising from the processing of personal data

The user has the following rights vis-à-vis Pons & Mansfeld, as recognised in the RGPD and Organic Law 3/2018, of 5 December, on the Protection of Personal Data and Guarantee of Digital Rights, and may therefore exercise them vis-à-vis the data controller:

  • Right of access: The user has the right to obtain confirmation as to whether or not Pons & Mansfeld is processing his/her personal data and, where that is the case, to obtain information about his/her specific personal data and the processing carried out or to be carried out by Pons & Mansfeld, as well as, among other things, the available information about the origin of this data and the recipients of the communications made or planned for this data.

    Right to rectification: The user has the right to rectify his/her personal data if they prove to be inaccurate or incomplete, taking into account the purpose of the processing.

    Right to erasure (‘right to be forgotten’): This is the user's right, unless otherwise provided for by applicable law, to obtain the erasure of their personal data if it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or processed; the user has withdrawn their consent to the processing and the processing has no other legal basis; the user has objected to the processing and there is no other lawful ground for the processing to continue; the personal data have been unlawfully processed; the personal data must be erased for compliance with a legal obligation; or the personal data have been collected as a result of a direct offer of information society services to a child under the age of 14. In addition to erasure, the controller, taking account of available technology and the cost of its implementation, shall take reasonable steps to inform controllers which are processing the personal data of the data subject's request to erase any links to such personal data.

  • Right to restriction of processing: This is the user's right to restrict the processing of their personal data. The user has the right to obtain the restriction of processing if they contest the accuracy of their personal data, the processing is unlawful, the controller no longer needs the personal data but the user needs it to assert claims, and if the user has objected to the processing.

    Right to data portability: In the case of automated processing, the user has the right to receive their personal data from the controller in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and to transmit those data to another controller. Where technically feasible, the controller shall transmit the data directly to that other controller.

    Right to object: This is the user's right to object to the processing of their personal data or to stop the processing of this data by Pons & Mansfeld.

    Right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling: This is the user's right not to be subject to an individualised decision based solely on automated processing of their personal data, including profiling, unless otherwise provided by law.

Therefore, the user may exercise their rights by sending a written communication to the data controller with the reference ‘RGPD-www.pons-mansfeld.com’, indicating

  • Name, surname(s) of the user and copy of the identity card.

Complaints to the supervisory authority

If the user considers that the way in which their personal data is processed constitutes a problem or a breach of the applicable regulations, they have the right to effective judicial protection and the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the country in which they have their habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged breach. In the case of Spain, the supervisory authority is the Spanish Data Protection Authority (http://www.agpd.es).

II. ACCEPTANCE OF AND CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY

It is necessary that the user has read and agrees to the conditions for the protection of personal data contained in this Privacy Policy, as well as that he accepts the processing of his personal data so that the Data Controller can proceed in the manner, during the periods and for the purposes indicated. Use of the Website implies acceptance of the Privacy Policy.

Pons & Mansfeld reserves the right to modify its privacy policy according to its own criteria or due to a change in legislation, case law or the doctrine of the Spanish Data Protection Agency. No changes or updates to this Privacy Policy will be expressly communicated to the user. The user is advised to consult this page periodically to be aware of the latest changes or updates.

This Privacy Policy has been updated to adapt it to 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 to Organic Law 3/2018 of 5 December on the Protection of Personal Data and Guarantee of Digital Rights.
