The legal basis for the processing of personal data is consent. Midrinet undertakes to obtain the express and verifiable consent of the User for the processing of their personal data for one or more specific purposes.

The User shall have the right to withdraw their consent at any time. Withdrawing consent shall be as easy as giving it. As a general rule, the withdrawal of consent shall not condition the use of the Website.

In cases where the User must or may provide their data through forms to make inquiries, request information, or for reasons related to the content of the Website, they shall be informed in case the completion of any of them is mandatory because they are essential for the correct development of the operation carried out.

Purposes of the processing to which the personal data are intended

Personal data are collected and managed by Midrinet for the purpose of facilitating, expediting, and fulfilling the commitments established between the Website and the User or the maintenance of the relationship established in the forms filled out by the latter or to respond to a request or inquiry.

Likewise, the data may be used for commercial purposes of personalization, operational and statistical purposes, and activities inherent to the corporate purpose of Midrinet, as well as for the extraction, storage of data, and marketing studies to tailor the Content offered to the User, as well as to improve the quality, functioning, and navigation of the Website.

If the User is under 14 years of age, the consent of their parents or guardians will be required for the processing, and this shall only be considered lawful to the extent that they have authorized it.

Confidentiality and security of personal data

Midrinet undertakes to adopt the necessary technical and organizational measures, according to the level of security appropriate to the risk of the data collected, in order to ensure the security of personal data and prevent their destruction, loss, or accidental or unlawful alteration of personal data transmitted, stored, or otherwise processed, or the unauthorized communication or access to such data.

However, since Midrinet cannot guarantee the impregnability of the internet or the total absence of hackers or others who fraudulently access personal data, the Data Controller undertakes to inform the User without undue delay when a breach of the security of personal data occurs that is likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons. Following the provisions of Article 4 of the GDPR, a breach of the security of personal data is understood to be any breach of security resulting in the destruction, loss, or alteration, accidental or unlawful, of personal data transmitted, stored, or otherwise processed, or unauthorized communication or access to such data.

Personal data shall be treated as confidential by the Data Controller, who undertakes to inform and guarantee, by means of a legal or contractual obligation, that such confidentiality is respected by its employees, associates, and any person to whom it makes the information available.

Rights derived from the processing of personal data

The User has over Midrinet and may, therefore, exercise against the Data Controller the following rights recognized in the GDPR and Organic Law 3/2018, of December 5, on the Protection of Personal Data and guarantee of digital rights:

Right to rectification: It is the User’s right to have their personal data rectified if they are inaccurate or, taking into account the purposes of the processing, incomplete.

In addition to erasing the data, the Data Controller, taking into account the available technology and the cost of its implementation, must take reasonable measures to inform the data controllers who are processing the personal data of the data subject’s request for deletion of any link to that personal data.

Right to restriction of processing: It is the User’s right to restrict the processing of their personal data. The User has the right to obtain the restriction of processing when they contest the accuracy of their personal data; the processing is unlawful; the Data Controller no longer needs the personal data, but the User needs it to make claims; and when the User has objected to the processing.

Right to data portability: In cases where processing is carried out by automated means, the User shall have the right to receive their personal data from the Data Controller in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, and to transmit them to another data controller. Where technically feasible, the Data Controller shall transmit the data directly to that other controller.

Right to object: It is the User’s right not to have their personal data processed or to cease processing by Midrinet.

Right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling: It is the User’s right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing of their personal data, including profiling, except as provided by current legislation.
