Fair Processing Notice

Globe Trotsky adheres to the fair Principles for Processing Personal Data

They are:

  1. Lawfulness, fairness, and transparency: obey the law; only process personal data in a way that people would reasonabl expect; always be open about your data protection practices.
  2. Purpose limitation: you must normally only process personal data for the specific reason you collected it and nothing else.
  3. Data minimization: don’t process any more data than you need.
  4. Accuracy: make sure that any personal data you hold is adequate and accurate.
  5. Storage limitation: don’t store personal data for longer than you need to.
  6. Integrity and confidentiality: always process personal data securely.

Among the key ways we comply with these regulations are:

Consent

We explain what you’re consenting to clearly and without ‘legalese’, and ask that you explicitly consent to contact from us.

Breach Notification

In the event of a breach we will notify affected users within 72 hours of first having become aware of the breach.

Right to Access

Users can request confirmation as to whether or not personal data concerning them is being processed, where and for what purpose. Further, we shall provide a copy of the personal data, free of charge, in an electronic format.

Right to be Forgotten

Once we have compared your (the subject’s) rights to “the public interest in the availability of the data”, we may delete your personal data where you have requested this.

Data Portability

We allow you to receive the personal data concerning you, which we will provide in a ‘commonly used and machine -eadable format’ and you have the right to transmit that data to another ‘controller’.

Privacy by Design

We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures, in an effective way, in order to meet the requirements of this Regulation and protect the rights of data subjects’. We hold and process only the data absolutely necessary for the completion of our duties (data minimisation), as well as limiting the access to personal data to those needing to act out the processing.
