This Privacy Policy explains what personal identifiable information (“Personal Data”) Svarmi collects from you and how we use that data.
Our privacy policy should be readable and understandable. To ensure this, we would first like to explain some of the terms used.
Personal Data is all information about a specific or identifiable natural person. An identifiable natural person is a person that can be identified, directly or indirectly, by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or one or more specific physical, physiological, genetic, mental characteristics, economic, cultural, or social identity of this natural person.
An affected person is any identified or identifiable natural person whose Personal Data is processed by the controller.
Processing is any process or set of operations performed on Personal Data or Personal Data, whether automated, recorded, organized, structured, stored, adapted, or changed, accessed, consulted, used, transmitted, disseminated, or otherwise made available, directed, or combined, restricted, deleted or destroyed.
Profiling is any form of automated processing of Personal Data consisting of the use of Personal Data to evaluate certain aspects of a natural person, to analyse, or predict aspects of work performance, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, the reliability, the behaviour, the location or the movements of this natural person.
Anonymisation is the process of removing personal identifiers, both direct and indirect, that may lead to an individual being identified. Once data is truly anonymised and individuals are no longer identifiable, the data will not fall within the scope of the GDPR.
Pseudonymisation is the processing of Personal Data in such a way that the Personal Data can no longer be assigned to a specific person without the use of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separate and subject to technical and organizational measures to ensure that the Personal Data is not assigned to a specific or identifiable natural person.
Responsible for processing is the natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or other body which, alone or in concert with others, determines the purposes and means of processing Personal Data; where the purposes and means of such processing are determined by the Union or Member State law, the controller or the specific criteria for their designation may be determined by the Union or Member State law.
The processor is a natural or legal person, public authority, government agency or other body that processes Personal Data on behalf of the controller.
Recipient is a natural or legal person, agency, agency, or other entity to which the Personal Data is disclosed, whether or not it is a third party. However, authorities which may obtain Personal Data under a specific investigation under the Union or national law shall not be considered as beneficiaries. The processing of these data by these authorities will be in accordance with the applicable data protection rules for the purposes of processing.
Third parties are natural or legal persons, authorities, agencies, or bodies other than the data subject, the controller, the processor, and persons authorized to process Personal Data under the direct supervision of the controller or the processor.
The consent of the data subject is any free, specific, informed, and unambiguous presentation of the data subject’s wishes, by which they declare their consent to the processing of the Personal Data concerning them by means of a declaration or a clear affirmation.
