Axxon Composites is responsible for the processing of your personal data. Our main reason for collecting your personal information is to provide and improve the products, service and experiences that you and our customers expect from us.

We take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data as confidential and in line with statutory data protection regulations as well as this Data Protection Declaration.

Your data will not be forwarded to other recipients without your express consent.

Personal information is defined slightly differently across the world. To guarantee your privacy and the protection of your information, we define it as any information that could be used to identify you or another individual.

WHAT PERSONAL INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT AND HOW WE USE IT

We will also collect personal information about you through our use of CCTV, filming and photography. CCTV cameras are primarily used for security purposes. We will film and take photographs at some of our events and exhibitions; we use film and photographs for our business purposes (for example, to post on our social media pages).

Axxon Composites collects your information in order to provide services to you, comply with our legal obligations and to improve our products and services. We do not sell, rent or share your personally identifiable information to or with third parties in any way other than as disclosed in this Privacy Policy. Investigate, prevent or take action regarding illegal activities and/or violations of our Terms of Service.

YOUR RIGHTS and choices

Where possible, we give you control over the personal information we collect about you, to ensure it is accurate and reflects your preferences. You have the right to access, update and amend personal information that we hold about you; you can do that in relation to some of your personal information.

You have the rights

-          To object to our use of your personal information for certain purposes;

-          To ask us to limit or restrict our use of your personal information;

-          To ask us to correct, remove or delete personal information about you; or

-          To ask us to provide your personal information to a third party provider of services.

-          To withdraw any consent granted for the processing of your personal data. The lawfulness of personal data processing until consent is withdrawn shall not be affected by the withdrawal.

-          To object to your personal data being processed for the purpose of direct advertising. In the event of objection, your personal data will no longer be processed for the purpose of direct advertising.

To do so, simply send us an e-mail with your specific concern to gdpr@axxoncomposites.com

HOW DO WE PROTECT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

We are committed to protecting your personal information. We use appropriate technical and organizational measures, to protect your personal information and privacy, and review those regularly. We protect your personal information using IT security controls, including access controls that restrict and manage the way in which your personal information and data is processed, managed and handled. We also ensure that our staff are adequately trained in protecting your personal information.

Axxon Composites has reasonable security policies and procedures in place to protect personal information from unauthorized loss, misuse, alteration, or destruction. Despite Axxon Composites's best efforts, however, security cannot be absolutely guaranteed against all threats. To the best of our ability, access to your personal information is limited to those who have a need to know. Those individuals who have access to the data are required to maintain the confidentiality of such information. We also make reasonable efforts to retain personal information only for so long as the information is necessary to comply with an individual's request or until that person asks that the information be deleted.

Data is processed on the basis of your consent (Article 6 Paragraph 1a of the General Data Protection Regulation – DSGVO). You may revoke this consent at any time. The lawfulness of previously concluded data processing operations shall remain unaffected by this revocation.

In certain situations, Axxon Composites may be required to disclose personal data in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements.

Where required by law (e.g., to comply with a subpoena, warrant, court order, or legal process served on Axxon Composites), and when we believe that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, avoid litigation, protect your safety or the safety of others, investigate fraud, and/or respond to a government request. We may also disclose information about you if we determine that such disclosure should be made for reasons of national security, law enforcement, or other issues of public importance.

In the unlikely event that we do suffer a security breach which compromises our protection of your personal information and we need to let you know about it, we will do so.
