Privacy policy. Processing of personal data

 

RDA respects the privacy of people visiting the Site and contacting us electronically. When interacting with us, you can provide us with information to help us identify you (for example, name, email, phone number). Also, some information that helps us identify you is necessary for the execution of the legal assistance contracts that we conclude with you. In addition, the RDA collects some information about his collaborators, according to the law. This information is known as "personal data". This Privacy Policy complies with the provisions of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of individuals with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data and repealing Directive 95 / 46 / EC (hereinafter referred to as GDPR).

 

 

The legal bases of processing personal data

 

A. Consent-based processing (art. 6 par. (1) letter (a) of GDPR]
In the RDA activity, data processing based on the consent of the data subjects may be varied depending on the specific activities carried out and the aims pursued. For example, personal data processing of clients for promotional purposes (transmission of legal alerts / newsletters via e-mail) is done on the basis of free, specific, informed and unambiguous consent legally obtained from clients.

 

B. Processing required to conclude and execute a contract [Art. 6 par. (1) letter. b) from GDPR]
This type of processing takes place, for example, when the initiative for concluding a legal aid contract belongs to a new client, a natural person. RDA will also process the contact details of a new collaborating lawyer in order to conclude the collaboration agreement.

 

C. Processing Required to Comply with a Legal Obligation (Art. 6 par. (1) letter c) of GDPR]
The processing of personal data on the basis of the need to comply with a legal obligation implies the existence of an imperative legal rule applicable to the RDA. In this case, processing is necessary to comply with the legal obligation.
1. Laws on the prevention and sanctioning of money laundering and the prevention and combating of terrorist financing (Law No. 656/2002 on the prevention and sanctioning of money laundering, as well as on measures to prevent and combat terrorism financing) have some obligations implementing specific customer knowledge and reporting suspicious transactions. The processing of personal data necessary for the fulfillment of these obligations is based on the legal obligation.
2. Attorneys have the obligation to maintain specific records of their activity, such as the Electronic Register of Documents drawn up by the lawyer. The processing of personal data made for this purpose is based on the legal fulfillment of a legal obligation.

 

D. Processing required to carry out a task in the public interest (Art. 6 par. (1) letter e) of GDPR]
According to art. 39 of the Law no. 51/1995, in the exercise of their profession, lawyers are indispensable partners of the judiciary. Therefore, the professional activity of the lawyer is exercised for the purpose of justice, thus serving a public interest. In this case, the basis on which the RDA is processing the personal data is the one stipulated in art. 6 par. (1) letter e) from GDPR. In order to carry out professional work for the purpose of justice, the lawyer processes the personal data of adverse parties or third parties. The basis of such processing is not the consent of the data subjects but also the legal assistance contract concluded with the client. The legal basis is the fulfillment of a task that serves a public interest.

 

 

The personal data of minors

 

RDA does not solicit and does not intentionally collect personal data from minors. In the situation where RDA discovers that he has accidentally collected personal data from a minor, he will remove that data as soon as possible.
