Where your data is stored
Your data will be stored within our database. This system is cloud based, but we ensure that all necessary data protection protocols are in place.
Cookies
Cookies are used to collect information about how visitors use our website, for example, which pages visitors go to most often. These cookies do not collect information that identifies a visitor.
All the information these cookies collect is aggregated and is therefore anonymous. It is only used to compile reports to help us improve our website. Information collected by these cookies cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.
Sensitive data
We do not store any sensitive personal data (as defined in the General Data Protection Regulation 2016 Article 9), unless it has been provided by you as a part of the application or screening process. In this case it will only be stored with your specific consent.
Right to erasure
If you exercise your right to erasure, we will retain all that information which we are legally obligated to retain (such as employment contract data or financial payment), for the period that is set out by that legal obligation. We may also keep your name and the bare minimum of contact details so that we do not contact you or re-enter your details inadvertently in the future.
Mode and place of processing the data
At Geatóir we take appropriate security measures to prevent unauthorised access, disclosure, modification or unauthorised destruction of the data.
The data processing is carried out using computers and/or IT-enabled tools, following organisational procedures and modes strictly related to the purposes indicated. In some cases, the data may be accessible to certain types of persons in charge, involved with the operation of the site (administration, legal, system administration) or external parties (such as third-party technical service providers, mail carriers, hosting providers, IT companies, communications agencies) appointed, if necessary, as Data Processors by the Owner. The updated list of these parties may be requested from the Data Controller at any time.
Retention period
The data is kept for the time necessary to provide the service requested by the user, or stated by the purposes outlined in this document, and the user can always request that the Data Controller suspend or remove the data. Please contact info@Geatóir.com in this regard.
