How to manage personal information
Delete Personal Information
To request deletion of Personal Information, a request should be sent to reroads.info@gmail.com. Because deletion on the RERoadS system is a permanent action and cannot be reversed, RERoadS may ask to complete a process that aims to confirm the authority to manage data affected by request. Data Protection Project Designate will permanently remove the contact from RERoadS email lists. Data Protection Project Designate will permanently delete Personal Information from the RERoadS website. RERoadS will retain and use Personal Information as necessary to comply with its legal obligations, enforce its agreements, and as otherwise permitted by applicable law.
Data retention
RERoadS will retain Personal Information for as long as needed to provide with services. Personal Information may be retained for a maximum of 2 years.
Storage & security
RERoadS stores information, including Personal Information, on its own project server. Data Protection Project Designate controls its own copy of information collected through the RERoadS website and has an information security program designed to protect information in its possession or control. This is done through a variety of privacy and security policies, processes, and procedures. Data Protection Project Designate uses administrative, physical, and technical safeguards that reasonably and appropriately protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the information that it collects, receives, stores, or transmits. Nonetheless, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure; and therefore, Data Protection Project Designate cannot guarantee its absolute security. While Data Protection Project Designate works hard to ensure the integrity and security of its network and systems, Data Protection Project Designate cannot guarantee that its security measures will prevent “hackers” or other unauthorized persons from illegally accessing or obtaining information.
If Data Protection Project Designate learns of a security breach involving its copy of Personal Information, Data Protection Project Designate may attempt to notify electronically so that visitors may take appropriate protective steps. By using the RERoadS website or providing Personal Information to RERoadS, the visitor agree that RERoadS can communicate electronically regarding security, privacy, and administrative issues relating to the use of the RERoadS website. If a security systems breach occurs, RERoadS may post a notice on the RERoadS homepage (https://reroads-project.unibs.it/) or elsewhere on the RERoadS website and may send an email.
