Privacy policy governing the use of personal data
A: OBJECTIVE
-
This Privacy Policy explains how BETTINA VERMILLON uses personal data provided by you (THE CUSTOMER), or collected from other sources, and explains your rights regarding the use of such data, in accordance with the requirements of the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
The GDPR establishes several general principles governing the use of personal data. The data must be collected for specified, explicit and legitimate purposes. Data must be adequate, relevant and limited to what is strictly necessary for the purposes for which it is processed. Data shall not be kept longer than strictly necessary and shall be processed in an adequate manner to ensure their security.
BETTINA VERMILLON is a company 'responsible for the processing' of personal data as defined by the RGPD. This means that BETTINA VERMILLON determines how personal data is used ('processed'), and is therefore responsible for ensuring that such data is processed in accordance with the requirements set forth in the GDPR. In some cases, BETTINA VERMILLON 'processes' such data internally. In other cases, trusted third party companies carry out the processing for us. The term 'processing' covers the entirety of what may be done with the data, including the simple act of accessing it or reading it on a screen.
BETTINA VERMILLON's 'data controller' can be contacted by email at julief@bettinavermillon.com for example if you wish to assert the rights to your personal data set out in section B, below.
