13. SECURITY OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA
The security of your Personal data is very important to us. EASL processes your
Personal data in a proper manner and shall take appropriate technical and
organizational measures to prevent unauthorized access, disclosure,
modification, or unauthorized destruction of your Personal data.
The Personal data processing is carried out using computers and/or IT enabled
tools, following organizational procedures and modes strictly related to the
purposes indicated. In addition to EASL, in some cases, the Personal data may be
accessible to certain types of persons in charge, involved with the operation of
the Platform (administration, sales, marketing, legal, system administration) or
external parties (such as third party technical service providers, mail
carriers, hosting providers, IT companies, communications agencies) appointed,
if necessary, as data processors by EASL. The updated list of these parties may
be requested from the data controller at any time.
To protect your information, EASL uses an industry standard security protocol
called Transport Layer Security (TLS) to encrypt the transmission of sensitive
information between you and our Websites. To know if transmissions are
encrypted, look for the lock on your web browser or check that the URL starts
with https://.
You shall be solely responsible to keep your password and other information
relating to your Account confidential and not allow any third party to access
and use your Account. In the event that your Personal data is unduly accessed,
or is reasonably believed to have been unduly accessed, by an unauthorized
person and applicable law requires notification, EASL shall without undue delay,
and where feasible, not later than 72 hours after having become aware of it,
notify the breach to the competent supervisory authority, unless said breach is
unlikely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms. If the breach is
likely to result in a high risk to your rights and freedoms, EASL shall
communicate this breach to you without undue delay.
To assist you in ensuring security, we require a complex password be set to
access your Account which must comprise of at least 8 characters including
letters, numbers and special characters. After 10 wrong password attempts, your
Account will be locked.
Please note that EASL will never ask you for your personal details, password or
credit card details by email. We advise you to be vigilant and apply caution.
All transactions should go through your secure My EASL area.
YOU HOWEVER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE USE OF THE INTERNET IS NOT SAFE AND THAT THERE
ARE CERTAIN INHERENT RISKS TO YOUR PERSONAL DATA. EASL SHALL MAKE REASONABLE
EFFORTS TO PROTECT YOUR PERSONAL DATA BUT IT CANNOT GUARANTEE OR WARRANT THAT
PERSONAL DATA YOU PROVIDE TO EASL IS SAFE AND PROTECTED FROM UNAUTHORIZED THIRD
PARTY ACCESS AND THEFT AND, THEREFORE, WAIVES ALL LIABILITY IN THIS RESPECT. IN
NO EVENT, SHALL EASL BE HELD LIABLE FOR CIRCUMVENTION OF ANY PRIVACY SETTINGS,
VIRUSES OR SECURITY MEASURES CONTAINED ON THE PLATFORM.
14. ACCESS TO YOUR PERSONAL DATA AND INFORMATION RIGHTS
You have the right to request access to or information about the Personal data

Where provided by law, you, your successors, representatives and/or proxies may
(i) request deletion, correction or revision of your Personal data; (ii) oppose
the data processing; (iii) limit the use and disclosure of your Personal data;
and (iv) revoke Consent to any of our data processing activities, if we are
relying on your Consent and do not have another legal basis to continue
processing your data.
These rights can be exercised by writing to us at: EASL, 7, rue Daubin, 1203
Geneva, Switzerland, or by sending us an email at the following address
gdpr@easloffice.eu attaching a copy of your ID. If the request is submitted by a
person other than you, without providing evidence that the request is
legitimately made on your behalf, the request will be rejected.
The request is free of charge unless your request is unfounded or excessive
(e.g. if you have already requested such Personal data multiple times in the
last twelve months or if the request generates an extremely high workload). In
such case, we may charge you a reasonable request fee according to applicable
laws.
We may refuse, restrict or defer the provision of Personal data where we have
the right to do so, for example if fulfilling the request will adversely affect
the rights and freedoms of others.
Please note that any information that we have copied may remain in back-up
storage for some period of time after your deletion request. This may be the
case even though no Personal data about your Account remains in our active
Users’ databases. Please note that Personal data posted on third party services,
such as social networks, are not located on our servers and will, therefore, not
be deleted from the Internet by EASL.
15. PORTABILITY OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA
You also have the right to receive your Personal data, which you have provided
EASL with, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and have
the right to transmit those data to another controller without hindrance from
EASL.
This right can be exercised by writing to us at: EASL, 7, rue Daubin, 1203
Geneva, Switzerland, attaching a copy of your ID. If the request is submitted by
a person other than you, without providing evidence that the request is
legitimately made on your behalf, the request will be rejected.
The request is free of charge unless your request is unfounded or excessive
(e.g. if you have already requested such Personal data multiple times in the
last twelve months or if the request generates an extremely high workload). In
such case, we may charge you a reasonable request fee according to applicable
laws.
We may refuse, restrict or defer the provision of Personal data where we have
the right to do so, for example if fulfilling the request will adversely affect
the rights and freedoms of others.
16. PRIVACY BY DESIGN AND BY DEFAULT
EASL will, both at the time of the determination of the means for processing and
at the time of the processing itself, implement appropriate technical and
organizational measures, such as pseudonymization, which are designed to
implement data-protection principles, such as data minimization, in an effective
manner and to integrate the necessary safeguards into the processing in order to
meet the requirements of the GDPR and protect your rights.
EASL will implement appropriate technical and organizational measures for
ensuring that, by default, only Personal data which are necessary for each
specific purpose of the processing are processed. This obligation applies to the
amount of your Personal data we collect, the extent of their processing, the
period of storage and their accessibility. These measures will ensure that by
default your Personal data are not made accessible without your intervention to
an indefinite number of third parties.
