What personal data do we use and to whom do we access it?
ALEF Group companies (Controller) process the data only for purposes related to a business relationship (including orders via B2B form) or marketing relationship. The data includes name, surname, title, job position, employer's name and address, telephone number, e-mail. In case the subject of personal data (natural person) is directly involved in the business or marketing relationship, the data includes: name, surname, title, address of permanent or temporary residence or seat, telephone number, e-mail, VAT ID, bank account. In case of training offers, we only process your name, surname and e-mail address.

Recipient of such personal data is the Controller and any entity linked in any way to the Controller in terms of assets, whether directly or indirectly, and entities that are members of the ALEF Group, even in the case such entity is in a third country (i.e. outside the European Union), if the European Commission has decided that such third country ensures the appropriate level of personal data protection, or to other third countries, if the Controller has established appropriate safeguards to protect the personal data transferred in accordance with Article 46 of the GDPR and the employees of the said persons.
