When you visit the Website and when you contact us, we may collect and process specific personal data about you, so that you may benefit from the functions and services provided through the Website and in order to understand the demand for our services and improve the way in which we operate. Through the Website, INSETE generally collects and processes basic personal data and not special categories of your personal data (sensitive data), unless required to do so by the law.
The said data may include ‘personal data’, in other words information which pertains to you as identified or identifiable natural persons, meaning natural persons whose identity may be ascertained, whether directly or indirectly, especially through reference to an identification particular, such as a person’s full name and contact information.
The Website is not intended for use by underage persons (persons under the age of 18) and we do not knowingly collect personal data pertaining to underage persons.
Data we collect directly from you
Most of the personal information we process is provided directly by you.
We collect some personal data about you for the purpose of communicating with you, for instance in order to respond to your requests for the provision of information and in order to better understand your expectations and needs.
Specifically, when you contact us in any way (e.g. by email or telephone), we collect and process information about you, which you provide directly and which may include your full name, email address, the reason for which you contact us and the content of your message to us. We shall use this information in order to contact you so as to address any issue or question you may have.
When you subscribe to receive our newsletter, we collect and process information you provide about yourself by filling in the relevant form in the ‘NEWSLETTER- SUBSCRIPTION’ unit (e.g. email address).
We also collect your data as potential employees and partners (see here in particular INSETE information policy of job applicants), following your application in response to our advertisement for a job vacancy or following your application for a job sent on your own initiative. In such cases, INSETE collects and processes only the personal data that are required for the assessment of the candidate’s appropriateness for the specific post/partnership (e.g. name, surname, contact details, education, previous experience, etc.). These are data you provide to us with the application you submit as candidates in any way (e.g. by sending us your CV by email, as may requested in a relevant announcement/invitation posted on the Website) and in the course of any interview in which you may participate. The said data are required for the selection process, although you do not have to provide all the information we ask for in an announcement/invitation. If you do not provide adequate information about your professional experience and education, this may impact the course of your application, inasmuch as its evaluation is based on the information and particulars which are provided.
For your participation in our seminars and training/coaching actions (daily events, congresses, workshops, etc.), we collect the particulars required for your identification as a participant (e.g. full name) and your contact particulars (postal address, email, contact telephone number), including the name of the body you may be representing. When a participation fee is required, we collect data in relation to its payment when the provision of such data is mandatory pursuant to the tax legislation (e.g. VAT Number, IBAN to confirm your payment). Also, when we seek partners to carry out our training and coaching actions (e.g. coaches, speakers) or when you apply to participate in our actions in this capacity on your own initiative, we collect and process information pertaining to the education/training and qualifications of potential partners, their previous experience, their CV, any references from previous employers/partners, etc. If you do not wish to share with us all your data which may be required for your participation, you may be unable to participate in the training/coaching action or event.
Also, subject to your agreement, we may process image data (of your face) and audio data (of your voice), if the training/coaching action or event is recorded on photographs or video. The provision of said data, viz. image data (of your face) and audio data (of your voice), is not mandatory, inasmuch as said data are only collected upon your consent by means of a special form which you fill in prior to an event.
