The purpose is to protect the data from accidental or unlawful destruction or alteration, accidental loss, unauthorised disclosure or access and other forms of unlawful processing.

  • collects and processes personal data that are adequate, relevant and not excessive, as required to fulfil the above-mentioned purposes, and
  • ensures that these data are kept up-to-date and accurate.

6. Data retention times

Without prejudice to your right to object to processing of your personal data and/or to request erasure, the ACIMAC group will retain your personal data only for the time necessary to fulfil the purpose for which they were collected and received or to meet legal or regulatory requirements.

When this period expires, your data will be removed from the ACIMAC group’s active systems.

7. Your legal rights

    • Processing is unlawful and you request restriction of processing or erasure of your personal data;

  • Right of access. You have the right to ask the ACIMAC group for confirmation as to whether it holds any personal data that concerns you, including information on which categories of personal data are in the ACIMAC group’s possession or control, the purpose for which they are used, where they were collected (if not submitted directly by you), and any parties to whom they have been transmitted;
  • Right to data portability. Upon your request, the ACIMAC group will transmit your personal data to another Controller, if technically feasible and provided the processing is based on your consent or is necessary for the performance of a contract.

In this eventuality, the ACIMAC group will no longer process your personal data unless it can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, or the processing is for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims. If you object to processing, please specify whether you intend to erase your personal data or restrict their processing.
