Privacy Policy

Privacy Policy

Introduction

Your privacy is important to us. Therefore, through this document, we inform you of the data we collect from our users, what we use this information for and much more. Individuals over the age of 14 will be able to register as users without previous consent from a parent or legal tutor. However, should the individual be under 14 or identified as “deprived of the individual’s legal capacities”, permission from a parent or legal guardian will always be required.

We will never ask users for more information than we need to offer the services they require. Under no circumstances will the information you provide be shared with external or third parties unless we find ourselves compelled to do so by legal obligation or with your previous consent. Your personal data will never be employed to serve a purpose that has not been indicated to you beforehand. As a user, you should carefully and regularly read this Privacy Policy every time you introduce new personal information since this document can undergo several modifications (the provider can modify this document to follow regulations or update the policy). It is crucial to be cognizant that the provider has no obligation to give users prior notice of said changes; publishing these is considered legally enough.

Data collection method

The data we collect and how we compile it.

  1. By means of a contact form. This includes: name, email, phone number,
  2. By means of a blog’s comment section. This includes: name, email,
  3. By means of a “work with us” form. This includes: name, email, CV

Deeply protected data categories are not processed.

 

Purpose of processing

The user’s personal data will be used only for the following purposes and never before having been personally granted consent by the user:

  1. Contact form: to answer queries and or provide the user with information.
  2. Registration form: to set up an account in case the user-to-be is already a client. If this is the case, the provider must personally add the client as a new user.
  3. Newsletter subscription form: to send the user Business Communications in the form of emails, SMS, social networks or any other electronic means.
  4. Blog comments section: Users can comment in the blog’s forum to ask and answer questions.
  5. “Work with us.” form: to involve interested parties in the process of employee selection (currently open or for future projects).
  6. Other purposes:

 

  • Carry out the commercial, administrative, fiscal, and accounting practices that are necessary under current legislation.
  • Know your opinion regarding the services we offer and our work practices in order to improve these.
  • Carrying out usefulness analysis of the web through cookies. (More information in ‘Cookies Policy’.)
  • Social media: More information in its respective section. All photographs posted on the website belong to Arriola & Fiol arquitectes.

 

You can revoke your consent at any time by emailing the address reviewed and adding “UNSUBSCRIBE” as the subject. In accordance with the LSSICE, Arriola & Fiol arquitectes does not conduct SPAM practices. That is to say, Arriola & Fiol arquitectes does not send commercial emails that have not been previously requested or authorised by the User. Moreover, for all communications the user will receive from the provider, the user can withhold their consent to receive communications. Under no circumstances will the information you provide be used for a different purpose unless we find ourselves compelled to do so by legal obligation or have your previous consent. You will not be subject to decisions based on automated processes that manipulate or alter your data.

Legitimacy of processing

The legal basis for data processing is consent. This one should be granted (or not) by the user at the precise time it completes its personal details in the corresponding form, where the purpose of the information is available, and users can mark the verification box if they wish to accept the terms offered. Not issuing the user’s personal details when requested or not accepting the established privacy policy, however, will make it impossible for the provider to achieve the purposes mentioned above. In cases where a prior contractual relationship exists between parties, the legitimacy to develop administrative, fiscal, accounting and labour obligations necessary under current legislation, will result from the previous existence of the commercial relationship established between parties. The prospective or commercial offer of products and services is based on the consent the user is requested to confer with the provider in the document named “privacy policy”. Under no circumstances does the withdrawal of this consent constrain the bringing about of the subscription contract.

 

Data retention period

The user’s data will be preserved for the duration of the commercial relationship between user and provider or until the user exercises its right to cancel, oppose and amend the treatment. However, the user’s personal details will be kept within the legally stipulated periods in the respective provisions.

Arriola & Fiol arquitectes will only provide information to law enforcement authorities, under court order or by the obligation of a legal standard, without prejudice to being able to block or cancel your account if there may be evidence of the commission of a crime by the user.
