Rights of the interested party
Every user, in his or her capacity as a “Data Subject,” has the rights under Article 7 of the Privacy Code and Article 15 of the GDPR, namely, the rights to:
  • To obtain confirmation of the existence or non-existence of personal data concerning him/her in Asters’ archives, even if not yet recorded, and their communication in an intelligible form;
  • Obtain the indication of: (a) the origin of the personal data; (b) of the purposes and methods of processing; c) the logic applied in case of processing carried out with the aid of electronic instruments; d) of the identification details of the data controller, the data processors and the designated representative pursuant to Article 5, paragraph 2, of the Privacy Code and Article 3, paragraph 1, of the GDPR; e) of the subjects or categories of subjects to whom the personal data may be communicated or who may become aware of said data in their capacity as designated representatives in the territory of the Italian state, data processors or persons in charge of processing;
  • Obtain: (a) the updating, modification, updating or, in case of specific interest, the integration of data; b) the cancellation, transformation into anonymous form or blocking of data processed in violation of the law, including those that do not need to be kept in relation to the purposes for which the data were collected and/or subsequently processed; c) certification to the effect that the operations as per letters a) and b) have been notified, as also related to their contents, to the entities to whom or which the data were communicated and/or disseminated, unless this requirement proves impossible or involves a manifestly disproportionate effort compared with the right that is to be protected;
  • Object, in whole or in part: a) for legitimate reasons, to the processing of personal data concerning the user, even if pertinent to the purpose of collection; b) to the processing of personal data concerning the user for the purpose of sending advertising material and/or direct sales and/or for carrying out market research or commercial communication, through the use of automated calling systems without the intervention of an operator by electronic mail and/or by traditional marketing methods (i.e. by telephone and/or paper mail).
In this regard, Asters points out that the data subject’s right to object, as set out above, for direct marketing purposes by automated means also extends to traditional marketing. In any case, this is without prejudice to the possibility for the data subject to exercise the right to object even partially. Therefore, the data subject may decide to receive only communications (i) by traditional means or (ii) only automated communications or (iii) neither type of communication. Where applicable, the user has, in addition, the rights set forth in Articles 16 to 21 of the GDPR (i.e., right to rectification, right to be forgotten, right to restriction of processing, right to data portability, right to object), as well as the right to complain to the Data Protection Authority.
Methods of exercising rights
As mentioned above, the user has, at any time, the possibility to object to the processing of his or her data and/or request the deletion, modification or updating of all personal information held by Asters. These rights may be exercised by the user by sending a communication to the following e-mail address: [email protected]
