Privacy policy
How we process the personal data you give us, in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR) and Spanish Organic Law 3/2018 (LOPDGDD).
Data controller
Pere Corral Tarraga, a private individual, tax ID (NIF) 43478992E, who runs the activity under the trade name Focalia. Contact address: Plaça de Manuel Corachan, 3 BIS A, 2, 08017 Barcelona, Spain. Email: focalia.contact@gmail.com. There is no data protection officer.
Who can access your data
At present only Pere Corral Tarraga has routine access to the focalia.contact@gmail.com inbox, to the form notifications and to the requests and personal data we receive.
Data we process
Through the contact form: name, email and message; school or organisation and phone, only if you choose to give them; the language of the page you write from and your confirmation that you have read this policy. If you write to us by email, the data you include in your message. When you visit the website, technology providers may process technical data such as your IP address, browser and the date and time. Along with each form request, Netlify also stores the IP address, browser and the page it was sent from. The form is intended for adults: we do not ask for data about students or minors, medical data, special educational needs, diagnoses or any other sensitive data; please do not include it.
Requests for information, demos and pilots
Purpose: to answer your request for information and arrange the demos or possible pilots you ask for. Legal basis: steps taken at the request of the data subject prior to entering into a contract (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR). If you write on behalf of a school or organisation, we process your professional contact details to handle its request, under Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR and Article 19 of the LOPDGDD.
Enquiries and follow-up communications
Purpose: to answer your enquiries and keep up the communications needed after a conversation you started. Legal basis: our legitimate interest in handling your own request (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). You can object at any time.
What we do not do with your data
Each request is used only to answer it and for follow-up reasonably related to it. We do not add your email to any newsletter, marketing list, sales CRM or advertising audience, we do not send bulk advertising or automatic promotions, we do not build profiles or make automated decisions, and we do not sell or share your data for marketing purposes. If we ever send marketing communications, we will ask for separate, optional, unticked consent.
Website security and operation
Purpose: to keep the website available and protected against abuse and spam submissions. Legal basis: our legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). This technical data is processed by the technology providers.
Retention
Enquiries from potential customers that do not lead to a business relationship are kept for no more than 12 months from the last communication, unless they must be kept longer to deal with a claim or a legal obligation, or you ask us to delete them sooner. If a business relationship is established, the necessary data will be kept for the periods required by law. There is no automatic deletion: the controller regularly reviews and deletes old enquiries in the Netlify dashboard and in the email inbox. Technical access data is kept by the technology providers according to their own retention periods.
Technology providers and international transfers
We use the technology providers needed for website hosting, security, receiving and technically processing the form, and sending notifications. The main one is Netlify, Inc., based in the United States: it hosts the website, receives and stores form submissions on its platform, filters them for spam using a service built into it (Akismet) and sends us an email notification. Some of these providers may involve international data transfers, which take place under the mechanisms permitted by the GDPR that apply to each provider. We do not sell or share your data for marketing purposes.
Contact form
Requests you send through the form are received by Netlify (Netlify Forms), which stores them on its platform and sends us an email notification with their content to focalia.contact@gmail.com. That notification lets us reply directly to the email address you give us.
For now we use a free Gmail account (a Google service) as a communication tool: it is where we receive form notifications and the messages you send us by email, and where we reply from. Google processes that data under its own terms and privacy policy, which may involve transfers outside the European Economic Area. When we move to a professional email on our own domain, we will update this policy.
Your rights
You can exercise your rights of access, rectification, erasure, objection and restriction of processing and, where applicable, portability, by writing to focalia.contact@gmail.com or to the contact address above. If you consider that we have not handled your request properly, you can lodge a complaint with the Spanish Data Protection Agency (www.aepd.es).
