2. Processing method

Your data may be processed both in paper form and with computer and data transmission methods (including the use of portable devices, magnetic, electronic or digital transmission media). The processing operations are those indicated by the GDPR, specifically: collection, registration, organisation, retention, consultation, processing, amendment, selection, extraction, comparison, use, interconnection, blockage, communication, deletion and destruction of the data. In order to ensure the traceability of all the data processing operations, clearly defined archiving and search procedures have been adopted. Data processed by computer and paper methods are protected by suitable security measures.

3. Subjects that process the data

Your data may be processed by our employees and internal collaborators, who will be appointed as authorised subjects and provided with specific and detailed instructions so that the data are processed in full compliance with the GDPR and the current regulations. 
Without prejudice to the communications and dissemination conducted in execution of legal obligations, the data may be communicated – for reasons strictly connected to the contractual relations undertaken with you – to the following categories of third-party subjects:

  • professionals and consultants who deliver services functional to the above indicated purposes;
  • credit and insurance institutes that deliver services functional to the above indicated purposes;

Your data may be made accessible to subjects outside the EU only if required for the execution of the professional assignment and respecting appropriate security measures.

4. Limitation on the retention of the data

Your data, subject to processing for the above indicated purposes, shall be retained for the period strictly necessary for the performance of the professional assignment and, thereafter, for the time in which the Data Controller is subject to retention obligations for tax purposes or for other purposes, laid down by laws or regulations and, in any case, for a maximum period of ten years, after which they shall be deleted.

5. Consequences of a failure to communicate the data

Any refusal to provide the data required to fulfil the aforementioned requirements or subsequent processing shall make it impossible for Unilegal to carry out the professional assignment, as well as the impossibility of fulfilling the connected regulatory obligations (for example, fulfilments linked to the keeping of accounting and tax records), with the consequent failure to complete any contractual relationship.
