Privacy Policy

Unless otherwise specified, this Policy is also intended as information – pursuant to art. 13 of the GDPR 679/2016 – provided to those who interact with the services offered by the website. Detailed information on the processing of personal data are reported, where necessary, in the pages relating to individual services offered. Such information is aimed at defining the limits and methods of data processing for each service, based on which the visitor may freely express his/her consent and eventually authorize the collection of data and its subsequent use.

Scope of this policy

This Privacy Policy relates to this website and not to any other websites not belonging to the GlobalBusinessGroup that may be consulted by the user through links.

Ownership and responsibility

The data controller of the personal data collected through this website, which can be reached at www.globalbusiness.group and dpo@globalbusiness.group, is Dirk Hinze. In addition, personal data may be processed by persons appointed as internal and external Data Processors, as well as by Data Trustees appointed to manage the service requested. More detailed information on the names of the internal and external Data Processors can be addressed by writing to gdpr@globalbusiness.group

Optional provision of data

The provision of the personal data requested from the interested party – unless otherwise specified – is optional, but failure to provide such data may make it impossible to obtain what has been requested.

Type of data acquired and purpose of processing

The website has a mainly informative function regarding the activities carried out by the Globalbusinessgroup. Therefore, in most cases, there is no collection of personal data from the navigator. In some cases, such as the “contact us” or “newsletter” sections, in order to allow or facilitate a personal communication or the transmission of our newsletter, the user is asked to fill in a data collection form.

When browsing the site, information about the visitor can therefore be acquired in the following ways:

Navigation data

The computer systems and software procedures used to operate this website acquire, during their normal operation, some personal data whose transmission is implicit in the use of Internet communication protocols. This category of data includes: IP addresses, the type of browser used, the operating system, the domain name and addresses of websites accessed or exited from, information on the pages visited by users within the site, access time, the length of time spent on each page, internal path analysis and other parameters relating to the user’s operating system and computer environment. These technical/informatics data are collected and used only in an aggregate and immediately non-identifying way; they could be used to ascertain responsibility in case of hypothetical computer crimes against the site.

Cookies

Regarding the installation of cookies by this website, please refer to our Cookie policy.

Data provided voluntarily by the visitor

This is all the personal data that the visitor freely releases on the site, for example, to register and/or access a reserved area, request information on a particular product or service using a form, write to an e-mail address or call (in VoIP mode) a toll-free number to have direct contact with customer service. In these cases, you will be provided with a privacy policy that specifies the use of your data and other information required by law. In some cases, this information may be used for the purpose of user profiling. Where this occurs, appropriate information will be provided, and free and specific consent will be acquired for marketing and/or profiling purposes.

Transmission of e-mails to the company

When you send us electronic notes, the company will be provided with certain personal data, such as your e-mail address and the information in the body of the message. This data will be used only for the purpose of establishing a mutual communication and will not be communicated, disseminated, or transferred abroad.

Request for newsletters or information material

The personal data provided by users who request dispatch of informative material (brochures, newsletters, acts and regulations, etc.) are used for the sole purpose of providing the service requested and are communicated to third parties only if necessary for this purpose (dispatch service of the documentation published, by persons who carry out this instrumental activity on behalf of the Company, being specifically authorized).

Method of acquiring consent (if required)

Should the intention be intended to use the personal data collected through this website for purposes that require the prior consent of the person concerned (for example, for subsequent promotional activities or for profiling), the user will be asked to freely give specific consent by selecting the corresponding option in the form that follows the legal notice.

Methods of data processing and storage

Personal data is processed mainly using electronic procedures and media for the time strictly necessary to achieve the purposes for which the data was collected. The user, however, has the right to obtain the cancellation of his/her data in the presence of legitimate reasons.

Place of data storage

The processing operations connected to the web services of this site take place in Lausanne, Switzerland and the offices of the director of marketing and his team members which manage the relevant server. The personal data is handled only by the technical staff of this company, specifically appointed for the processing, or by any persons in charge of occasional maintenance operations.

Security measures

Specific security measures are observed to prevent the loss of data, unlawful or incorrect use and unauthorized access.

Scope of circulation and dissemination of data

The personal data acquired through this website can be accessed only by persons acting on behalf of the Data Controller who have been specifically designated as data processors or persons in charge of processing; these data are not disseminated.

Exercise of rights

The subjects to whom the personal data refer have the right at any time to obtain confirmation of the existence or otherwise of such data and to know its content and origin, verify its accuracy or request its integration or updating, or rectification (Article 7 of GDPR 679/2016). Pursuant to the same article, you have the right to request the cancellation, transformation into anonymous form or blocking of data processed in violation of the law, as well as to oppose in any case, for legitimate reasons, their processing. Requests should be addressed to gdpr@globalbusiness.group

Redirecting to external sites

The website may use so-called social plug-ins. Social plug-ins are special tools that make it possible to incorporate social network functions directly into the website (e.g. the Facebook “like” function). All social plug-ins on the website are marked with the respective logo owned by the social network platform. When you visit a page on our website and interact with the plug-in (e.g. by clicking the “Like” button) or leave a comment, the corresponding information is transmitted from your browser directly to the social networking platform (in this case Facebook) and stored there. For information on the purpose, type and manner of collection, processing, use and storage of personal data by the social networking platform, as well as on how to exercise your rights, please refer to the privacy policy of the social networking platform.

Links to/from third-party websites

From this website it is possible to connect via links to other websites of companies belonging to the same group as (company name) and of third parties. The owner of the site declines any responsibility regarding the possible management of personal data by third party sites and regarding the management of authentication credentials provided by third parties.

Changes to the Policy

This Policy governs the way we process the personal data provided by visitors when they visit our website. The possible entry into force of new sector regulations, as well as the constant review and updating of services to the user, may lead to the need to change these procedures. It is therefore possible that our policy may change over time, and we invite the visitor to periodically consult this page. To this end, the policy document highlights the date of updating. Any substantial changes to this Privacy Policy will be notified to registered users by email and by publishing a notice on the website.
