1 - WHY IS THIS PERSONAL DATA PROTECTION POLICY NECESSARY AND WHAT IS ITS GOVERNING PRINCIPLES?

 

ROLEAR is dedicated to protecting the personal data of its Clients, Website Users, its App or Newsletter Subscribers, Employees, Job Applicants, Trainees and Trainers, in all situations where such data is processed, and as such it has drawn up this Policy, which underpins its underlying commitment to complying with Personal Data protection rules and with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) ((EU) Regulation 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016) and Law no. 58/2019 of 8 August which ensures execution of the aforementioned Regulation within our legal system, and with all other applicable legislation and also ensuring compliance by its Processors.

ROLEAR is dedicated to protecting the confidentiality of all personal data and it has adopted all measures it deems adequate to ensure the accuracy, integrity and confidentiality of personal data, as well as complying with all other principles that govern data processing, described as follows:

The principle of lawfulness determines that it shall only be possible to process personal data if there is a sufficiently legitimate reason for doing so. To comply with this principle, Rolear processes personal data in the following situations: in compliance with legal obligations; in undertaking pre-contractual due diligence; when executing a contract; because it has obtained consent; because it has legitimate interest in doing so..

To comply with the principle of fairness, Rolear processes personal data fairly: on the one hand taking into account its interests and those of its Processors, while on the other those of the data subjects.

The principle of transparency means that information or communication related to the processing of personal data should be easily accessible and comprehensible, and formulated in a clear and simple manner. In order to ensure compliance with this principle, any information or communication concerning processing personal data is provided by Rolear in a concise, transparent, intelligible and easily accessible manner, using clear and simple language.

The principle of purpose limitation stipulates that data should be collected for purposes that are specific, explicit and legitimate and cannot be processed in the future in a manner that is incompatible with the purposes for which they were collected. Rolear ensures compliance with this principle and does not process data for purposes that are different from those for which they were collected.

The principle of data minimisation means that the data that is to be processed must be adequate, relevant and limited to that which is required by the purposes that determine the processing. To comply with this principle, Rolear only processes personal data when the purpose of the processing cannot be achieved in a reasonable manner by any other means, i.e., when the respective processing is in fact necessary.

The principle of accuracy requires that personal data be correct and updated whenever necessary, and appropriate measures taken to allow inaccurate data to be erased or rectified without delay. To comply with this principle, Rolear offers the data subject all the necessary mechanisms for rectification.

The principle of storage limitation requires that personal data be stored only for the period that is required for the purposes of the processing. Rolear shall erase the personal data once the pre-established period for which the data was collected has ended.

The principle of integrity and confidentiality requires that personal data be processed in a manner that ensures its security, including protection against the data’s unauthorised or illegal processing, loss, destruction or accidental damage. Rolear has adopted appropriate technical and organisational measures to prevent use of data by unauthorised persons.

The principle of accountability requires creating adequate and effective measures and data protection policies based on criteria of risk, adaptability and proportionality of measures that guarantee compliance with GDPR principles and obligations, and, when requested, demonstration thereof to the supervisory authorities. Rolear ensures compliance with this and other principles stipulated in Article 5. of the GDPR and is able to prove that the technical and organisational measures that it has adopted allow for such compliance.

The principle of proportionality is part of the general principles of law of the European Union, requiring that any act carried out is able to achieve the sought after objective and does not go beyond what is necessary to achieve it, and when there are alternative means that are less likely to affect the privacy of the people in question these means shall be implemented. Rolear adopts this principle and always bears in mind the importance of adopting an approach that is proportional to the processing of personal data.

Lastly, Rolear ensures that the Processors who process Personal Data on its behalf comply with the same principles and act with the same amount of confidentiality and security;
