This Privacy Policy explains what we do with your personal data. It describes the way we gather, use and handle your personal data and, by doing so, how we comply with our legal obligations towards you. Your privacy is important to us, and we are focused on protecting and safeguarding your personal data. 

Please take a few moments to get to know our privacy practices. If you have any questions, contact us through the email address rgpd@primeit.es or the postal address Avenida General Perón, 38, Edificio Masters 1, 15A, 28020, Madrid. 

We try to keep this Privacy Policy as simple as possible, but in case you are not familiar with any of the terms used or if you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact PRIMEIT IBÉRICA S.L. to know more. 

Occasionally, we may alter this Privacy Policy. If you want to keep up to date, visit this page, as all alterations shall be published here. 

 A. Who gathers your personal data, and who is the authority responsible for its handling? 

The handling of any personal data gathered by PRIMEIT, or provided to them, is the responsibility of the company PRIMEIT – IBÉRICA S.L., a public limited company, legal person no. B87412953, with a registered office at Avenida General Perón, 38, Edificio Masters 1, 15A, 28020, Madrid, whose contact data may be found later on this Privacy Policy (hereinafter referred to as “PRIMEIT” or “we”).  

 B. How is my personal data gathered, and what type of data is gathered?

Please be aware that you are not forced to provide to PRIMEIT your personal data that the company might request (being able to, at any time, exercise your right of opposition), but, if you choose not to do so, we might not be able to provide you with our services, manage your application or answer to any question you might have. 

PRIMEIT may gather your personal data in many ways, namely when you subscribe to our newsletter, send us spontaneous applications, register yourself on the University’s employment platforms, job fairs, references of collaborators or ex-collaborators, workshops and partnerships aimed to be contacted by PRIMEIT, enter a contract with us (work, provision of services or other), fill your customer’s form or communicate with our customer support teams. 

If you are a candidate, aiming to identify and find the best job opportunities and/or possible services adapted to you, we have to handle certain information about you. We only request data that will be relevant to us, such as your name, age, contact data, information on training, employment history, emergency contact, immigration status, financial information (in case we need to verify the financial context) and social security number (and you may opt to share with us other relevant information). When it is appropriate, and according to the law, we may also gather diverse information or data on any criminal convictions. 

If you are a client, we need to gather and use information about you or the people of your company in the scope of our provision of services, to provide you with a service as complete as possible, so that our contractual relationship may progress correctly. As so, in this scope, we may request some personal data such as your name, email address, position and contact number of relevant employees for the provision of services. 

If you are a supplier, we need a small amount of information concerning your personal data to ensure that everything works correctly. We need the contact data of certain people in your company, so we can communicate with you, as well as other information, such as your bank data, so we can pay you for the services provided (if that is part of the contractual provisions entered into between us). We may also hold information that someone in your company has chosen to share with us. 

When we talk about suppliers, we aim to include any companies (including traders working individually) and atypical service providers, such as independent contractors and freelance workers, who provide services to PRIMEIT. Under certain circumstances, PRIMEIT shall subcontract the services provided to customers to third-party suppliers that perform their services on behalf of PRIMEIT. In this context, the suppliers who are traders working individually, freelance workers or suppliers’ collaborators shall be treated as candidates for the purposes of data protection. Be aware that, in this context, PRIMEIT demands that the suppliers inform their collaborators of the relevant parts of this Privacy Policy (namely the sections aimed at the candidates). 

Certain personal data categories, such as the ones which reveal the racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophic beliefs or union membership, genetic data, biometric data to unquestionably identify a person, the data concerning health, sexual life or sexual orientation, are classified as “special categories of personal data” and benefit from an additional protection under the terms of the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”). PRIMEIT limits, as much as possible, the circumstances in which it gathers and handles these special categories of data, only doing so when your consent has been given. 

In order to give our users greater speed and customisation of the services provided by PRIMEIT, this company shall resort to a browser operation called “cookies”, which allows PRIMEIT to customise your services and website according to your interests and needs, enabling the optimisation of your future activities and experience on the PRIMEIT website. Therefore, data concerning the parameters and configuration of your browser, operating system and geolocation may be gathered. During part of your browsing on the PRIMEIT website, we may also use software tools to measure and gather information about the session, including response times of the pages, download errors, duration of the visit to certain pages, information concerning your interaction with them and methods used to leave them. We may also gather technical information to help us identify your device for purposes of fraud prevention and diagnosis. 

 C. Purposes and grounds for the handling of your personal data
