Use of personal data
The data you provide us with, as well as any other data generated during the contractual, commercial or any other type of relationship that AB-BIOTICS maintains with you, may be processed by AB-BIOTICS for different purposes. Examples include:
a) If you are a current or potential customer, to maintain contact and communicate with you, manage the contractual and/or commercial relationship, as well as send you information about our products and services.
b) If you are simply a user of the AB-BIOTICS website, or the sender or recipient of an email, to maintain contact and communicate with you and manage the requests you send us online.
c) In both cases, to send you information about AB-BIOTICS products and/or services (including advertising and/or commercial communications for the purposes provided by Article 21 of Law 34/2002 on Information Society Services and Electronic Commerce).
d) If you provide your CV data or send your CV to AB-BIOTICS, to contact you and manage the selection processes that we carry out. In this case, the provision of data in the fields marked as mandatory is essential for their processing. If you do not provide this information, AB-BIOTICS will not be able to consider your CV.
e) If you are visiting AB-BIOTICS's facilities, to manage entry and follow-up visits.
In any case, the legal grounds that allow AB-BIOTICS to process your personal data are:
We consider that the legitimate interest on which the processing of your data by AB-BIOTICS is based does not involve an infringement of your fundamental rights or freedoms, as it is ancillary and restricted to the ordinary management of a corporate group. In any case, you may exercise your right to object if you consider this necessary by writing to the following address: info@ab-biotics.com.
You must complete the mandatory fields in the contact forms on the Website. Not providing or only partially providing the required personal data may mean that AB-BIOTICS cannot respond to your requests and, consequently, will be released from any liability for the non-provision or only partial provision of the services requested.
You must provide your current personal data so that the information contained in our files is up to date and free of errors. You will always be responsible for the accuracy of the data provided.
Data retention period
The personal data you provide to AB-BIOTICS will be retained for as long as the contractual or commercial relationship continues and, once this has ended, until you request their deletion and, even after such a request has been made, for the periods necessary to:
– comply with the legal obligations that affect AB-BIOTICS and
– those established for the expiration of any liability on the part of AB-BIOTICS and/or
– file or respond to claims arising from the relationship between the parties.
Data transfers to third parties
AB-BIOTICS informs you that your data may be assigned or transferred to other companies in the group or to third parties that provide services related to the processing purposes for which they were collected, and subject to your consent.
In any case, AB-BIOTICS may transfer your data to third parties if such transfer is required by law, regulations or a court ruling, or if the disclosure is necessary to ensure the protection and defence of your rights.
We inform you that AB-BIOTICS may use American suppliers, who may have access to your personal data for the purpose of providing AB-BIOTICS with services ancillary to its activity (hosting, software as a service, remote backups, computer support or maintenance services, email managers, sending emails and marketing by email, etc.). These companies may be different and vary over time but, in any case, AB-BIOTICS will choose companies that are members of the Privacy Shield agreement between the US and the EU, which means that they are obliged to comply with equivalent requirements to the European ones in the field of data protection. In any case, by accepting this data protection policy, you expressly and unequivocally authorise the communication of your data to those companies, understanding that this entails an international transfer of data to a country that does not belong to the European Economic Area, giving your unequivocal consent.
