General rules on data processing

The Controller, as a psychologist, provides individual and group, face-to-face and online psychological counselling to data subjects. The Data Controller is primarily concerned with psychology, including sex psychology and organisational psychology, and therefore also processes personal and sensitive data. The Data Controller processes the data of natural persons under the age of 18 with the consent of the person exercising parental control.

The Controller processes personal data only for specified purposes, for the exercise of rights and the performance of obligations, to the extent and for the duration necessary to achieve those purposes. The Data Controller shall process personal data only with the prior consent of the data subject or on the basis of a legal authorisation and where the processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party.

If the Controller becomes aware that the data it is processing is inaccurate, incomplete or not up to date, it shall rectify it.

Principles governing the processing of personal data:

  • “lawfulness, fairness and transparency”: the processing of personal data must be carried out lawfully and fairly and in a transparent manner for the data subject;
  • “purpose limitation”: personal data should be collected only for specified, explicit and legitimate purposes and not processed in a way incompatible with those purposes;
  • ‘data minimisation’: personal data must be adequate, relevant and limited to what is necessary for the purposes for which they are processed;
  • ‘accuracy’: personal data must be accurate and, where necessary, kept up to date; all reasonable steps must be taken to ensure that personal data which are inaccurate for the purposes of the processing are erased or rectified without undue delay;
  • ‘limited storage: personal data must be kept in a form which permits identification of data subjects for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which the personal data are processed;
  • ‘integrity and confidentiality’: personal data must be processed in such a way as to ensure adequate security of personal data, including protection against unauthorised or unlawful processing, accidental loss, destruction or damage, by implementing appropriate technical or organisational measures.

The Controller shall ensure maximum compliance with the principles relating to the processing of personal data in the course of its operations.
