Our employees, our customers and the customers of our customers are important to us. In extension with this we take care of the personal data which is processed. Data protection plays an important role in the fulfilment of our business activities. The safeguarding of personal rights and the compliance with legal regulations on data protection are integral parts. Knowledge of the requirements of data protection and compliance with the statutory provisions is increasingly a competitive advantage and sets us apart from competitors in the market. Personal data are processed only when the legitimacy of the processing is ensured. The principles of data processing of personal data, such as data minimization and transparency, are important corporate goals. The required technical and organizational measures for protecting data are based on the European GDPR. The privacy laws and the interests of our data subjects require ensuring the confidentiality of personal data. The IT systems (including our Websites or Services, human resource system, CRM system) undergo therefore a high level of confidentiality protection. All employees and the management are aware of their responsibilities when dealing with personal data and support the data protection policy and strategy to the best of their ability and in good conscience.

When a user visits our Websites and clicks on the pages, we collect aggregated data about the path of the user’s visit through the Website.

VANAD Group collects such information from visitors to VANAD Group’s Websites. We do not intend to collect sensitive information (for example, data relating to race or ethnic origin, religious beliefs, criminal record, physical or mental health or sexual orientation) from our Website visitors.

Unauthorized entry or use, hardware or software failure, and other factors, may compromise the security of user information at any time. Notwithstanding that security safeguards are in place to protect Personal Information, we also encourage you to take security measures to protect against unintended intrusions to your personal privacy (i.e., maintain access pass codes and/or PINs in a confidential manner). Unfortunately, data transmission over the Internet cannot be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect Personal Information that is transmitted to us by you, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of such information. Thus, any Personal Information transmitted to us is done so at your own risk.
