1.1. Applicable Legislation

Our Privacy Policy has been drafted in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, repealing Directive 95/46/EC (General Data Protection Regulation), and, insofar as it does not conflict with the aforementioned Regulation, with the provisions of the Spanish legislative framework concerning the protection of personal data.

By providing us with your personal data, you declare that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy and give your unequivocal and express consent to the processing of your personal data in accordance with the purposes and terms set out herein.

The Company may amend this Privacy Policy to adapt it to legislative developments, case law or interpretations issued by the Spanish Data Protection Agency. These privacy provisions may be supplemented by the Legal Notice, Cookie Policy and General Terms and Conditions that may apply to certain products or services, where access to such products or services entails specific requirements regarding the protection of personal data.

2. PURPOSE OF PERSONAL DATA PROCESSING

We process your personal data for the following purposes:
• To provide you with information about the products and services offered by our company, as described on this website.
• To arrange the provision of our services through the acceptance of the corresponding quotation/order and/or the signing of a commercial contract.
• To send you news and updates about our organisation, as well as updates to our catalogue of products and services, by email and/or post.

In compliance with current legislation on the protection of personal data, we inform you that the personal data you provide, as well as any photographs and recordings that may be taken during the event, will be processed by ASOCIACIÓN DE EMPRESARIOS DEL MÁRMOL DE ANDALUCÍA, AEMA.

Your data will be processed for the purpose of managing your invitation, registration and attendance confirmation for the XXXV Macael Awards. This includes managing venue capacity, issuing your accreditation, organising protocol arrangements and seating allocations, and sending communications relating to the event. Your data will also be processed to verify your identity upon entry to the venue and provide security personnel with a list of accredited attendees; to document the event through photographs and audiovisual recordings and publish such material on the organisation’s website, in its annual activity reports and on its social media profiles; and to inform you about future editions of the event and other activities organised by the Association.

The processing of personal data required for registration and accreditation is based on the performance of the membership relationship and on steps taken at the request of the data subject prior to entering into such a relationship. In the case of invited guests who are not members of the organisation, processing is based on the Association’s legitimate interest in organising the event and managing attendance (Articles 6(1)(b) and 6(1)(f) of the GDPR). The capture and publication of general images of the event, such as views of the venue and audience, in which attendees appear incidentally and are not individually identified, are based on the Association’s legitimate interest in promoting its institutional activities (Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR). The sending of information about future editions and activities is also based on the Association’s legitimate interest.

Registration and accreditation data will be retained for the duration of the event and for up to one year after its conclusion. Thereafter, the data will remain restricted for as long as any liabilities arising from their processing may exist. Published images will be retained for as long as the event continues to be publicised and as part of the Association’s historical archives.

Data subjects may exercise their rights of access to their personal data, rectification, erasure (right to be forgotten), restriction of processing, objection, data portability and the right not to be subject to automated individual decision-making, without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out prior to the withdrawal of consent. To exercise these rights, they may submit a written request to Ctra. Olula-Macael Km 1,7, 04867 Macael (Almería), or send an email to asociacion@macaelmarmol.com, providing proof of identity. Data subjects may also contact the Spanish Data Protection Agency to obtain additional information or lodge a complaint.

2.1. Data Retention Period

We will retain your personal data from the moment you give your consent until you withdraw it or request the restriction of processing. In such cases, we will retain your data in a restricted form for the periods required by law.

3. LEGAL BASIS AND DATA COLLECTED

The legal basis for processing your personal data is the express consent given through a clear affirmative action (completing the relevant form and ticking the box to accept this policy) when you provide us with your personal data.

6. USER RIGHTS

Any data subject has the right to obtain confirmation as to whether or not we are processing personal data concerning them. Data subjects have the right to access their personal data and to request the rectification of inaccurate data or, where appropriate, their erasure when, among other reasons, the data are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected. Under certain circumstances, data subjects may request the restriction of the processing of their data, in which case we will retain them solely for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims. On grounds relating to their particular situation, data subjects may object to the processing of their data. The Data Controller will cease processing the data unless there are compelling legitimate grounds for the processing or it is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
