LEGAL BASIS AND PURPOSES OF PROCESSING PERSONAL DATA
For concluding and performing contracts – Under Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR, personal data may be processed for the purpose of entering into or performing a contract. To provide our products and services, we need to process your personal data.

Thus, if you have subscribed to the Newsletter, your personal data will be used to send marketing messages, offers, news, upcoming campaigns, and invitations to various events. Your personal data will be deleted when you cancel your Newsletter subscription.

We may collect personal data from you when you:
book a place for participation in events (directly or indirectly through our trusted partners),

This safety measure involves redirecting the user at the time of payment to a secured page, where each cardholder is registered through the assignment of an authorization code for each online transaction.
The cards accepted for payment are those issued under the VISA (Classic and Electron) and MASTERCARD (including Maestro, if they have a CVV/CV2 code) logos.

We also take into account the periods for which we may need to retain personal data to comply with legal obligations, to handle complaints and queries, and to protect our legal rights in the event of a claim.
When we no longer need your personal data, we will securely delete or destroy it. We will also consider whether and how we can minimize the amount of personal data we use over time, and whether we can anonymize your personal data so that it can no longer be associated with you or identify you, in which case we may use that information without further notice to you.
We may retain processed data for different periods of time, deemed reasonable, in accordance with the purposes indicated above. We store your data only for the period necessary to achieve the purpose for which we hold the data, to meet your needs, or to fulfill our legal obligations.

We adhere to strict security procedures for the storage and disclosure of your personal data and to protect it against loss, destruction, or accidental damage.

SSL is the industry-standard method for encrypting personal information and data, ensuring that it is safely transferred over the Internet.
All registration details are transmitted through an SSL connection with the help of a dedicated network infrastructure (Multiprotocol Label Switching – MPLS) and are stored in accordance with Data Security Standards.
We may disclose your information to trusted third parties for the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy. We require all such third parties to implement appropriate technical and operational security measures to protect your personal data, in compliance with Irish and EU data protection laws.

The information controlled by scoaladevele may be transferred, transmitted, stored, and processed within the EU or in countries other than the one in which you reside, for the purposes described in this policy. These data transfers are necessary to provide services at the highest level, as well as to continue delivering our materials at the best possible professional quality.

În conformitate cu GDPR, aveți o serie de drepturi cu privire la datele personale pe care scoaladevele.ro le prelucrează:
Right of Access to Processed Data – You have the right to access the personal data we hold about you. The first provision of such information will be made free of charge. If you require additional copies of the information already provided, we may charge a reasonable fee, taking into account the administrative costs of providing the information. Clearly unfounded, excessive, or repetitive requests may not receive a response.
Right to Rectification – You have the right to request that your data be rectified if it is inaccurate or outdated and/or to have it completed if it is incomplete. If you have an account, it may be easier to correct your own data through the “My Account” function or by email at office@yachtholiday.org.
Right to Erasure (“Right to be Forgotten”) – In certain cases, you have the right to obtain the deletion or destruction of your data. This is not an absolute right, as we may sometimes be legally or contractually required to retain your data.
Right to Restrict Processing – You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your data. This means that the processing of your data is limited so that we may store the data but not use or process it. This right applies in specific circumstances provided by the General Data Protection Regulation, namely:
– when the accuracy of the data is contested by the data subject (i.e., you), for a period enabling the controller (i.e., scoaladevele) to verify the accuracy of the data;
– the processing is unlawful and the data subject (i.e., you) objects to the erasure of the data and requests the restriction of its use;
– the controller (for example, scoaladevele) no longer needs the data for processing, but it is required by the data subject (i.e., you) for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims;
– the data subject (i.e., you) has objected to the processing based on the legitimate interests of the controller (in this case scoaladevele.ro), pending the verification of whether the legitimate grounds of the controller (scoaladevele.ro) override those of the data subject (i.e., you).
Right to data portability – You have the right to move, copy, or transfer the data that concerns you from our database to another. This applies only to the data you have provided, when the processing is based on your consent or on a contract and is carried out by automated means.
Right to object – You may object at any time to the processing of your data when such processing is based on a legitimate interest.
Right to withdraw consent at any time – You may withdraw your consent regarding the processing of your data whenever such processing is based on consent. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority – You have the right to file a complaint with the data protection authority in your country of residence or domicile to challenge the data protection practices carried out by scoaladevele.ro.
Right to object to the processing of your data for direct marketing purposes – You may unsubscribe or opt out of our direct marketing communications at any time. The easiest way to do this is by clicking the “unsubscribe” link in any email or communication we send you.
Right to object to the processing of your data when we carry out actions in the public interest or in our own legitimate interests or those of a third party – You may object at any time to the processing of your data when such processing is based on a legitimate interest.
Right to disable Cookies – You have the right to disable cookies. Internet browser settings are usually set by default to accept cookies, but you can easily adjust them by modifying your browser’s settings.
You can exercise these rights, either individually or cumulatively, very easily, by simply sending a request via email to: office@yachtholiday.org or by phone at: +40723987872.
