GENERAL

In the capacity of controller and processor, ALTEN Belgium is responsible for complying with the provisions of the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) when using personal data. In doing so, it will always observe the principles stated in this Regulation. These principles are:

  • Purpose for personal data processing

Based on legal obligations and in order to execute agreements, ALTEN Belgium needs to gather, process and retain certain personal data. The processing of this personal data may therefore be based on one of these grounds. If personal data processing does not take place on one of the grounds mentioned above, ALTEN Belgium will ask the explicit permission from the data subject before the relevant personal detail is processed. The person will also be informed of the purpose of the processing, as well as the time frame during which the data will be retained.
When establishing a new policy and setting up new systems for processing personal data, ALTEN Belgium will take ‘privacy by design’ and ‘privacy by default settings’ as starting points.

Data exchange
Compliance with legal or contractual obligations may mean that ALTEN Belgium is required to share personal data with government institutions or other companies. If this is based on a collaboration agreement, ALTEN Belgium will enter into a processing agreement to guarantee that the other party complies with the obligations as stated in the GDPR.

Personal data security
ALTEN Belgium will safeguard the proper security of the personal data it manages.

Retention period for personal data
ALTEN Belgium will not retain the personal data it processes for longer than necessary for the purpose of the data processing.

Privacy rights of the data subject

If a data subject wishes to know what personal data ALTEN Belgium is processing, they may file a written inspection application to that end. ALTEN Belgium will respond to the request within four weeks. The written request should be sent to this e-mail address.

If the data appears to be incorrect, incomplete or not relevant, a request can be filed to have the data rectified, supplemented or erased.
