Introduction

This Privacy Statement, effective as of May  1, 2024 provides information on the collection, use, sharing and processing of personal information by Global Identification Solution, SL, a limited liability company registered in Spain, with address at c/ Hortaleza 18, 28004 Madrid (“GloID), the Data Controller. 

GloID has implemented technical and organizational measures to ensure the most complete protection of personal data processed through this website. This privacy statement is based on the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

Data collection and purposes of processing

GloID collects and processes your personal information to conduct its services, to inform and make available products and services that may be of interest to you and for the development of web statistics. The information you provide will be used to contact you when necessary, e.g. to notify you about functionality changes to the web site and to offer services that you may find helpful (provided you have not opted out to receive such services); to respond to your requests, to and to comply with applicable laws such as to comply with an opt-out request.

Our website collects a series of general data and information when a data subject or automated system calls up the website. This general data and information are stored in the server log files. Collected may be (1) the browser types and versions used, (2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the website from which an accessing system reaches our website (so-called referrers), (4) the sub-websites, (5) the date and time of access to the Internet site, (6) an Internet protocol address (IP address), (7) the Internet service provider of the accessing system, and (8) any other similar data and information that may be used in the event of attacks on our information technology systems. When using these general data and information, we do not draw any conclusions about the data subject (i.e. you). Rather, this information is needed to (1) deliver the content of our website correctly, (2) optimize the content of our website as well as its advertisement, (3) ensure the long-term viability of our information technology systems and website technology, and (4) provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for criminal prosecution in case of a cyber-attack. Therefore, we analyze anonymously collected data and information statistically, with the aim of increasing the data protection and data security of our enterprise, and to ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data we process. The anonymous data of the server log files are stored separately from all personal data you may provide to us.

GloID will not sell, distribute or make available your personal data to third parties outside of its own organisation without your prior consent, unless obliged to do so under law, codes of conduct and professional practice or a court order.

GloID will not retain your personal data longer than is necessary for the purposes described above, unless this data is necessary for complying with a statutory retention obligation, or (if longer) after the retention period under the applicable code of conduct and professional practice has expired. After expiry of the retention periods, your Personal Data will be deleted. If there is any information that we are unable, for technical reasons, to delete entirely from our systems, we will put in place appropriate measures to prevent any further use of the data.
