4. DATA PROTECTION

UCAM would like to bring to the attention of users of its website its policy on the processing and protection of personal data which is collected from users on the site for the purposes of the correct display of the site, the use of the services offered on the site, social networks and other digital media.

The collection of personal data, its processing and subsequent use are subject to the current legislation in Spain on data protection, under the Ley Orgánica de Protección de Datos de Carácter Personal [Organic Law on The Protection of Personal Data] (hereinafter LOPD) and its complementary legislation, and by Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, and repealing Directive 95/46/EC (General Data Protection Regulation).

UCAM shall only be responsible for, and guarantee the confidentiality and security of, personal data which it collects from site users through its site. It shall not hold any responsibility with respect to the processing and subsequent use of personal data which might be carried out by third party service providers who act outside of the website.

When is personal data collected from users of this website?

UCAM informs its users that the collection of personal data can be carried out, principally through the forms that UCAM includes on the site in the future, and in those that identify UCAM as responsible for the data collected through these forms.

UCAM informs site users that the optional or obligatory nature of the provision of the entirety of the data solicited will be indicated in advance.

If you do not want UCAM to process your personal data, we ask that you refrain from filling in the current forms on the website. In any case, we will inform you expressly and in readable form of the conditions under which personal data is gathered and the purposes for which they will be used, of any obligation to provide this data, of the rights which are available to the user, of the conditions in which they can exercise these rights, and of any other complimentary information which proves necessary.

The purpose of collecting and processing personal data.

With respect to personal data gathered via email and/or completion of the forms on the website, the purposes of processing shall be the following:

  • REQUEST FOR INFORMATION: To handle your request for information, we will include your data in the contacts list, provide you with the information requested, review your request and send you communications relating to your request which may be of interest to you.
  • STUDENT AREA: To create an account to access the Private Area and allow you access to the information and services available in that section.
  • LIBRARY: To provide electronic access to library resources.
  • CURRICULUM: To provide access to job offers and job exchange.
  • COOKIES: For information on the purposes of the use of cookies please consult our “Cookie Policy”.

Automated individual decision-making

UCAM does not use entirely automated decisions processes to enter into, develop, or end a contractual relationship with you. For the purposes of offering you products and/or services according to your interests and enhance your user experience, we may create a “commercial profile” based on the information offered. Nonetheless, we will not undertake automated decision-making on the basis of this profile.

Lawful basis

The lawful basis of the processing of personal data is the consent of the user in accepting the privacy policy and in sending us your personal data. The user can withdraw their consent at any time.

Confidentiality

For the processing of personal data, the Controller shall guarantee and safeguard the public liberties and fundamental rights of physical persons whose data is held on record, in particular their honour and family and personal privacy, and is thus obligated to carry out the corresponding processing of data in accordance with the current regulations at all times, and to store the information of its users with the highest confidentiality.

Personal data that is processed shall not be used for other purposes which are not listed here, or where appropriate, for other documents or contracts which bind both parties with particular conditions.

Other than express consent on the part of users, no transfer nor communication of data to third parties which are not provided for under the LOPD are permitted.

The Controller shall take measures to guarantee that every person who acts under its authority and has access to personal data may solely process this data in accordance with the Controller’s instructions, save where they are obligated to do otherwise by the law of the European Union or of its Member States.

The Controller informs users that, taking into account the state of the technology, the costs of application, and the nature, scope, context and purposes of the processing as well as the variable risks of probability and gravity to the rights and liberties of physical persons, the Controller and, where appropriate, the Processor shall apply the appropriate technical and organisational measures to guarantee a level of security suitable to the risk.

Exercise of rights

The Controller informs you that users can exercise their rights of access, rectification, erasure, the right to object, the right to restrict processing and portability of their data, through any of the following means:

The exercise of rights on behalf of the user shall be carried out by sending a written communication as well as a photocopy of the National Identification document or other valid identification under law of the user to the following address: UCAM, at Avenida Los Jerónimos 135 30107 Guadalupe (Murcia). This communication must contain the following information:

First name and surname of the user.

The basis on which the request is made.

Address for notification purposes, date, and signature of the user.

Documents substantiating the request which is made, where appropriate.

Via email to dpd@ucam.edu to which communications should be sent from the account registered in our files. This communication must contain the same information outlined in the previous section.

UCAM informs its users that the exercise of these rights is highly personal, thus only the user can exercise these rights with respect to the personal data of which they are the legitimate owner. Nonetheless, in exceptional cases, the authorised representative of the user may exercise these rights, to which the user is entitled under the terms outlined above, as long as they are accompanied by the indicated communication with accredited documentation of their status as representative.

Period for which data is held

Identifying personal data is held while there is a contractual relationship between the student or the interested party, while they are registered within the service and have not expressly requested the de-registration and erasure of their data, and always within the minimum period provided by law.

When the data is no longer necessary or relevant for the purposes for which it was collected or registered, it shall be deleted. Where the data collected is required for a purpose different than that for which it was collected, the consent of the interested party must be obtained in advance.

Minors

If the user is a minor, UCAM will have to rely on the consent of the minor’s parents, guardians or legal representatives for communication of the minor’s personal data, for which reason UCAM requests that minors refrain from using the email service and/or filling in forms without the consent of parents, guardians or legal representatives. If this consent is not obtained, UCAM shall not be held responsible for the actions of the minor.

5. ACCESS TO SERVICES WHICH REQUIRE LOGIN

UCAM provides to certain users, based on their relationship with UCAM, access to certain services which require identification and authentication of the user.

In the use of such services, the user shall have the following obligations:

To maintain the confidentiality of the access keys or passwords to restricted services. Providing user details or passwords to third parties is prohibited.

Passwords must not be stored in files or media or any other place in which they can be accessed by persons without authorisation.

Users must always use secure passwords which contain eight or more characters, capital letters, numbers or symbols, and which should not be words, names or concepts.

Access to these applications is prohibited without the corresponding authorisation. UCAM shall only be responsible for the security measures related to access to these services.

6. INTELLECTUAL AND INDUSTRIAL PROPERTY

The design, source code, logos, brands and other distinguishing signs which appear on the ucam.edu domain belong to UCAM and are protected by corresponding intellectual and industrial property rights. The reproduction, whether total or partial, of the content covered by this document without permission is prohibited.
