Our Privacy Notice
BEFORE WE BEGIN
The purpose of data protection legislation is to protect the rights and privacy of individuals (“Data Subjects“) in respect of the Processing of Personal Data concerning them. “Personal Data” is any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (known as a “data subject”). A person is “identifiable” if he or she can be identified, directly or indirectly, not only by things such as a name or an identification number, but also by things such as location data or some factor specific to (for example) the physical, physiological or social identity of that person. More common examples of Personal Data include names, identification numbers, contact information, identity documents and photographic images. “Processing” covers any activity involving Personal Data and includes such things as the collection, recording, storage, adaptation, use, disclosure and destruction of Personal Data.
Each member of the AGILEUM Group will process Personal Data in accordance with Applicable Data Protection Law.
After four years of preparation and debate the GDPR was finally approved by the EU Parliament on 14 April 2016. Enforcement date: 25 May 2018.
The EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) replaces the Data Protection Directive 95/46/EC and was designed to harmonize data privacy laws across Europe, to protect and empower all EU citizens’ data privacy and to reshape the way organizations across the region and worldwide approach data privacy
The EU General Protection regulation is considered the most important change in data privacy regulation in 20 years. Tech companies as AGILEUM routinely manage regulatory changes as part of everyday operations, but GDPR will likely have far greater impact than past mandates.
