The protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data is a fundamental right. Article 8(1) of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union (the 'Charter') and Article 16(1) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU) provide for the right of everyone to the protection of personal data concerning him or her.

 

The principles and rules relating to the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of their personal data should, irrespective of the nationality or place of residence of natural persons, respect their fundamental rights and freedoms, in particular the right to the protection of personal data.

 

The principles of personal data processing are the basis of the activity of each entity that uses personal data in its activity, regardless of their quantity and type.

 

Each economic operator or public institution that processes personal data must ensure compliance with the rights and obligations provided by the GDPR, and MAZILU AND PARTNERS CONSULTING SRL has understood the importance of the principles of personal data processing and has implemented internal policies and procedures that ensure compliance with the fundamental rights of individuals whose data are processed in its daily activity.

In this way, the Company has ensured and will ensure that it processes and will process only personal data that are really necessary, for the purposes established according to its specific activity, being able to demonstrate this compliance.

The principles imposed by the Regulation, which the Company has implemented and respects in its activity are:

  • The principle of responsibility
  • Principle of transparency
  • Principle of purpose limitation
  • Principle of data minimization necessary for the purpose of processing
  • Principle of data accuracy
  • Principle of data storage limitation
  • Principle of integrity and confidentiality

 

The principle of responsibility is that guideline according to which the data controller must implement compliance policies and processes in accordance with the provisions of the GDPR. The company has taken steps and adopted this principle in its activity, being able to prove compliance with it through the policies and procedures it has implemented.

The company has taken steps and adopted this principle in its activity, being able to prove compliance with it through the policies and procedures it has implemented.

Transparency of processing is the principle under which the controller has clear and specific obligations to inform the data subject, both when it obtains the data directly from the data subject and when it obtains them from third parties.

This principle is respected by informing individuals completely, correctly and objectively before the processing of personal data or in the event of any subsequent change regarding the personal data collected and the processing carried out.

MAZILU AND PARTNERS CONSULTING SRL provides complete, correct and objective information to the data subjects, providing them, upon request, when processing their personal data, with information regarding:

  • Purpose of processing;
  • Limitation of processing;
  • Accuracy of the processed data;
  • Period of use of the processed data;
  • Data protection conditions;
  • Possible disclosure of data to third parties / data transfers abroad;

The request for the manifestation of consent for the processing of personal data contains all the information regarding the processing of personal data, the company using a clear and 3 accessible language, through which it provides complete information. The company ensures compliance with this principle, its provisions being implemented through consent forms.

According to the Principle of Purpose Limitation of Processing, personal data must: "be collected for specified, explicit and legitimate purposes and shall not be further processed in a manner incompatible with those purposes; Further processing for archiving purposes in the public interest, for scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes shall not be considered incompatible with the original purposes ."

The company has proceeded to identify the purposes for which it processes each category of data, committing itself both by the Internal Regulation and by the other policies adopted, to process personal data only for the purpose for which they are collected.

In cases where processing is carried out for a purpose other than the initial one, the Company will obtain the prior and express consent of the data subject.

Obtaining consent for secondary purposes will be done through consent forms, in accordance with the provisions of the GDPR.

According to the principle of minimising the data necessary for the purpose of the processing, the data processed "must be adequate, relevant and limited to what is necessary in relation to the purposes for which they are processed ."

In order to comply with this principle, the Company has analyzed the personal data it processes, starting from the purpose of the processing, and has determined which of these data are necessary for the purposes established in the Company's activity, proceeding to delete the data for which there is no clear, legitimate and thorough purpose.

Data for which there is no clear, legitimate and thorough purpose for processing have been deleted from the Company's database.

According to the principle of data accuracy, the data processed must be: 'accurate and, where necessary, up-to-date; all necessary measures must be taken to ensure that personal data which are inaccurate, having regard to the purposes for which they are processed, are erased or rectified without delay .'

The company has implemented mechanisms to ensure that the personal data it processes are accurate and constantly updated.

According to the principle of limiting data storage, the controller is responsible for ensuring that the data it processes are: "kept in a form that allows the identification of data subjects for a period not exceeding the period necessary to fulfil the purposes for which the data are processed; Personal data may be stored for longer periods to the extent that they will be processed exclusively for archiving purposes in the public interest, for scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes, in accordance with Article 89(1), subject to the implementation of the appropriate technical and organisational measures provided for in this Regulation in order to safeguard the rights and freedoms of the data subject. "

Personal data will not be kept for a longer period of time than is necessary for the purpose for which it was collected.

For the purposes of their protection, personal data should not be retained by data controllers for longer than is necessary to fulfil the purpose for which they were processed, unless personal data are retained for:

  • archiving in the public interest
  • scientific or historical research
  • statistical purposes.

The retention of personal data for periods incompatible with the purposes of the processing or with the legitimate interest of the data controller exposes it to loss and damage to the data, and to potential sanctions from the Supervisory Authority.

Thus, the company has ensured and ensures that personal data are not kept longer than necessary to fulfill the purpose for which they are processed, unless they are kept for archiving in the public interest, for scientific, historical research or statistical purposes.

According to the principle of integrity and confidentiality, it is necessary that data be: "processed in a way that ensures adequate security of personal data, including protection against unauthorized or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction or damage, by taking appropriate technical or organizational measures".

The company or institution processing the data is obliged to process the personal data diligently and in good faith, using, in order to prevent cyber attacks, appropriate technical means.

The operator has implemented the privacy policy, through which it ensures the protection of personal data, both against external risks (cyber attacks) and against possible internal incidents (unauthorized access, loss, accidental deletion).

The Company also undertakes to process personal data diligently and in good faith, using, in order to prevent cyber attacks (malware, ransomware), appropriate technical means.

In the event of a security incident involving loss or theft of personal data, the company undertakes to promptly inform (no later than 72 hours) both the supervisory authority and the individuals concerned, in accordance with the provisions of Regulation (EU) 679/2016 and the policy on the management of security breaches.
