6. WHERE IS PERSONAL DATA STORED AND WHERE IS IT SENT?

Our customers' personal data are processed within the European Economic Area (EEA), where they are protected by European legislation, more precisely the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

When we do, we establish adequate contractual arrangements and security mechanisms to protect data and comply with data protection, confidentiality and security regulations.
Details is a subsidiary company of Arrow Global Group ("AGG" and/or "Arrow"), based in the United Kingdom. After Brexit, the European Commission issued an adequacy decision, which dates from June 28, 2021, as no additional safeguards are necessary if your data is transferred to the United Kingdom, thus ensuring their protection and safeguard either by UK and European Union privacy legislation.

We only share personal data with other countries outside the EEA, when we are legally entitled to do so, namely when:
- The European Commission has decided that the country concerned has adequate protection rules in place regarding data protection (an "adequacy decision");
- We managed to guarantee, through relevant "standard contractual clauses" (set of obligations in the form of a contract) the lawfulness and suitability of how your data is protected and used with the recipient of your personal data.

Your personal data is stored and maintained in accordance with the purpose for which the information is processed.

Archived Data

We will retain archived data in physical or digital format for business continuity purposes. When data is retained for longer than the period described above, it will not be accessible to unauthorized employees and in the case of digital copies, data will be encrypted.

9. HOW DOES Details MAKE DECISIONS ABOUT ME (RIGHTS RELATED TO AUTOMATED INDIVIDUAL DECISIONS)?

Scores and Rankings
Details may process your data to send you information about its products and services. This data processing will only be carried out with your consent, provided at the time of booking, check in, through the customer form. If you consent, you will receive marketing communications from Details. Failure to provide your personal data (name and e-mail) makes it impossible for Details to send you commercial communications.
You may, at any time, object to this data processing.

10. WHAT CAN I DO IF I WANT TO VERIFY THE PERSONAL DATA THAT I HOLD ABOUT ME? DO I HAVE A “RIGHT TO PORTABILITY” IN CONNECTION WITH MY DATA KEPT BY DETAILS (“DATA PORTABILITY RIGHT”)?

You have the right to ask us about the data we hold about you. This is called a Data Subject Access Request. You have the right to check the personal data we hold about you.
The new data protection legislation also covers the right to data portability, which may give consumers, in certain processing contexts, the right to receive their personal data in a portable format, when they are processed based on certain grounds, such as consent.

11. WHAT CAN I DO IF MY PERSONAL DATA IS INCORRECT (“RECTIFICATION RIGHT”)?

When we receive personal data, we carry out various checks to detect defects or errors. Ultimately, we rely on our suppliers and customers to provide accurate data.
If the details are found to be incorrect, we will update our records accordingly. If, after completing the checks, we are still confident that the data is correct, we will continue to retain and preserve it – although you can ask us to add a note to your customer record, indicating that you disagree or providing an explanation of the circumstances. Additionally, we need to keep the original incorrect records for auditing purposes.

If you want to do this, please contact us.

12. CAN I OBJECT THE USE OF MY PERSONAL DATA (“RIGHT OF OPPOSITION”) AND REQUEST THEIR DELETION (“RIGHT TO DELETION”)?

As a customer, you have specific rights under the GDPR. You have the right to object to the use of personal information or ask us to delete, remove or stop using it if there is no longer a need for us to keep it. These are called “right of opposition” and “right to erasure” or “right to be forgotten”.
Section 4 details the information we process, and why we need this information, in relation to the activities we carry out. This is why your right of opposition does not automatically imply the deletion of your information, however, we will analyze all requests received and if it is not possible for us to delete your information, we will inform you and clarify why we cannot do so.

13. CAN I LIMIT WHAT THEY DO WITH MY PERSONAL DATA (“RIGHT TO LIMIT THE TREATMENT”)?

In certain circumstances, you can ask us to limit how we use your personal data. This is not an absolute right, and your data may continue to be processed when certain grounds are met. These fundamentals include:

- Your consent;
- For the establishment, exercise or defense of a right in legal proceedings;
- For the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person;
- For reasons of public interest;

Only one of these grounds needs to be demonstrated in order to continue processing the data. We will consider and respond to requests received, including assessing the applicability of these exclusions.

Please note that, given the importance of keeping complete and accurate records, for the purposes described above it will generally be appropriate to continue processing the data.

14. TO WHOM CAN I COMPLAIN IF I AM DISSATISFIED WITH THE USE OF MY PERSONAL DATA?

We try to provide better customer service, but if you are not satisfied, you should contact us in order to look into your queries.
