3. EXTERNAL DATA CONTROLLER
With a view to making specific processing activities more functional to its own interests and those of its customers/users, with regard to the management of the common database present on the CRM (Customer Relationship Management) platform of the FMTS Group, each company of the FMTS Group has appointed the parent company Formamentis S.p.A. Benefit Corporation as the data controller, with a specific written agreement in accordance with the provisions of Article 28 of the Regulation, which, for the common purposes of direct marketing and profiling, is called upon to manage the stages of recording, organising, storing, processing, selecting and extracting personal data of customers/prospects.
Your Personal Data may be disclosed to specific persons who are considered to be the recipients of such Personal Data, including natural or legal persons, public authorities, departments or other bodies receiving personal data, whether or not they are third parties.
4. SUBJECTS TO WHOM YOUR DATA MAY BE DISCLOSED
With this in mind, in order to properly carry out all the Processing activities necessary to pursue the purposes set out in this Policy, the Recipients who may be in a position to process your Personal Data are as follows:
- third parties carrying out part of the Processing activities and/or activities related and instrumental thereto on behalf of the Controller. Such parties have been appointed as data controllers, meaning the natural or legal person, public authority, service or other body that processes Personal Data on behalf of the Data Controller;
- individuals, employees and/or contractors of the Controller, who have been entrusted with specific acts of Processing of Your Personal Data. Such individuals have been given specific instructions on the security and proper use of Personal Data and are defined as the persons authorised to process Personal Data under the direct authority of the Controller or Processor”;
- third parties carrying out processing and/or related and instrumental activities as autonomous data controllers, including – e.g. but not limited to – consulting companies, freelancers, credit institutions, insurance companies, third-party companies and/or members of the Group;
- companies with which the Controller has established collaborations by virtue of a contractual relationship.
Where required by law to prevent or suppress the commission of a criminal offence, your personal data may be disclosed to public bodies or judicial authorities, without these being defined as recipients. In fact, the regulation states that public authorities receiving communication of Personal Data in the context of a specific investigation conducted in accordance with the law of the European Union or of the Member States are not considered recipients.
5. STORAGE
The processing and storage of your personal data shall be carried out, in accordance with the provisions of the relevant legislation in force, for a period of time not exceeding that necessary to achieve the purposes for which they are processed, without prejudice to the ten-year period for the storage of civil law data only and the fulfilment of any other legal obligations. The data you provide for marketing and profiling purposes, on the other hand, will be stored for no longer than 2 years. Thereafter, your data will be deleted or anonymised and processed for aggregate and anonymous statistical analysis.
6. RIGHTS OF THE DATA SUBJECT
As provided for in the Regulation, you may exercise, at any time, towards the Data Controller the following rights:
Right of Access: you may obtain confirmation of the existence or non-existence of your personal data, even if not yet recorded, and request that such data be made available to you in a clear and comprehensible manner.

d) if you have objected to the processing and there are no further legitimate reasons for continuing to use your data;

a) exercise of the right to freedom of expression and information;

c) reasons of public health interest;
d) archiving in the public interest, for scientific or statistical research purposes;

c) exercise of your right in court;
d) verification of whether the legitimate motives of the Controller prevail over those of the data subject;
Right to Portability: has the right to receive, where the processing is carried out by automatic means, without hindrance and in a structured, commonly used and readable format, the personal data concerning him/her that he/she has provided to us with his/her consent or under contract, in order to transmit them to another Controller or – if technically feasible – to obtain the direct transmission by the Controller to another Controller;
Right of Opposition: has the right to object at any time, in whole or in part:
a) the processing of personal data concerning you, for legitimate and compelling reasons relating to your particular situation;

For all the cases mentioned above, if necessary, the data controller shall inform the third parties to whom your personal data are disclosed of the possible exercise of your rights, except in specific cases (e.g. when such fulfilment proves impossible or involves a manifestly disproportionate effort compared to the right protected).
The data subject has the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority of the state of residence.
7. DATA TRANSFER
Data may be transferred outside the European Union, in particular to and from the United Kingdom, for reasons exclusively related to the provision of the service (e.g. work experience and job shadowing etc.). In this case, the FMTS Group will adopt appropriate safeguards, including the adequacy decisions and standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission. In particular, transfers to and from the company TEEP LTD, which is part of the FMTS Group, will be made in accordance with the European Commission’s Adequacy Decision of 28 June 2021.
8. DPO
In order to facilitate relations between you and any Data Controller, the FMTS Group has decided to adopt and appoint a Data Protection Officer (DPO), as provided for in Articles 37-39 of the Regulation. The FMTS Group has, therefore, identified this figure in the person of Pietro Montella, lawyer, and may contact him at the following address dpo@fmtsgroup.it.
