Definitions<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To ensure the best understanding of the present\u00a0<em>Privacy Policy<\/em>\u00a0it is important to understand the concepts. For this reason, FINAN\u00c7OR provides a glossary of the terms it considers most important:<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Personal data:<\/strong>\u00a0Any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (\u201cdata subject\u201d); an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Treatment:<\/strong>\u00a0Any operation or set of operations performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organization, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Special categories of personal data:<\/strong>\u00a0Personal data revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, or trade union membership, as well as genetic data, biometric data that uniquely identify a natural person, data concerning health or data concerning a natural person's sex life or sexual orientation.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Sensitive categories of personal data:<\/strong>\u00a0Personal data relating to the economic or financial situation of its holder, (other) personal data that may lead to the stigmatization or exclusion of the data holder, usernames, keywords and other registration elements, personal data that may be used for identity-related fraud.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Responsible for treatment:<\/strong>\u00a0A natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of processing personal data.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Subcontractor:\u00a0<\/strong>Any individual or legal entity, public authority, agency or other body that processes personal data on behalf of the data controller.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Consent:<\/strong>\u00a0A freely given, specific, informed, and explicit expression of will by which the data subject, through a statement or unequivocal affirmative action, accepts that personal data concerning him or her shall be processed.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Personal data breach:<\/strong>\u00a0A security breach that accidentally or unlawfully results in the destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure of, or access to, personal data transmitted, stored, or otherwise processed.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Privacy<\/strong><strong>\u00a0by design:\u00a0<\/strong>This means taking privacy risks into account throughout the design process of a new product or service, rather than considering privacy issues only later. It also means carefully evaluating and implementing appropriate technical and organizational measures and procedures from the outset to ensure that processing complies with the GDPR and protects the rights of the data subjects concerned.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Privacy by default:\u00a0<\/strong>This means ensuring that mechanisms are put in place within an organization to guarantee that, by default, only the necessary amount of personal data is collected, used, and stored for each task. This obligation applies to the extent of its processing, the retention period, and its accessibility. These measures ensure that personal data is not made available to an indeterminate number of individuals without human intervention.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Pseudonymization<\/strong>: Processing personal data in such a way that it can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separately and subject to technical and organizational measures to ensure that the personal data cannot be attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>2.
