2.0 RELEVANT LEGISLATION
Along with our business and internal computer systems, this website is designed to comply with the following national and international legislation with regards to data protection and user privacy:
This site’s compliance with the above legislation, all of which are stringent in nature, means that this site is likely compliant with the data protection and user privacy legislation set out by many other countries and territories as well. If you are unsure about whether this site is compliant with your own country of residences’ specific data protection and user privacy legislation you should contact our data protection officer (details of whom can be found in section 8.0) for clarification.
3.0 PERSONAL INFORMATION THAT THIS WEBSITE COLLECTS AND WHY WE COLLECT IT
Note: Submission of personal data regarding users under 18 Years old, is not allowed.
This website collects and uses personal information for the following reasons:
3.1 Site visitation tracking
Like most websites, this site uses Google Analytics (GA) to track user interaction. We use this data to determine the number of people using our site, to better understand how they find and use our web pages and to see their journey through the website.
Although GA records data such as your geographical location, device, internet browser and operating system, none of this information personally identifies you to us. GA also records your computer’s IP address which could be used to personally identify you but Google do not grant us access to this. We consider Google to be a third party data processor (see section 6.0 below).
GA makes use of cookies, details of which can be found on GOOGLE’S DEVELOPER GUIDES. FYI our website uses the analytics.js implementation of GA.
Disabling cookies on your internet browser will stop GA from tracking any part of your visit to pages within this website.
3.2 Contact forms and email links
Should you choose to contact us using the contact form on our CONTACT US PAGE or an email link like THIS ONE, none of the data that you supply will be stored by this website or passed to / be processed by any of the third party data processors defined in section 6.0. Instead the data will be collated into an email and sent to us over the SIMPLE MAIL TRANSFER PROTOCOL (SMTP). Our SMTP servers are protected by TLS (sometimes known as SSL) meaning that the email content is encrypted using SHA-2, 256-bit cryptography before being sent across the internet. The email content is then decrypted by our local computers and devices.
3.3 Reservations
When you make a reservation or attempt to make a reservation through the Site, we collect certain information from you, including your name, billing address, shipping address, birth date , email address, and phone number etc. We refer to this information as “Rental details.”
3.4 Payments
We do not collect data from your payments such credit cards or any other information. PAYPAL Inc. has undertaken the process of your transactions ensuring you absolute security.
4.0 HOW WE STORE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
As detailed in section 3.3 above, if you submit an order on this website some personal information will be stored within this website’s database. This is currently the only occasion where personal data will be stored on this website. This data is currently stored in an identifiable fashion; a limitation of the content management system that this website is build on (WordPress). In the near future we aim to change the storage of this data to a pseudonymous fashion meaning that the data would require additional processing using a separately stored ‘key’ before it could be used to identify an individual.
Pseudonymisation is a recent requirement of the GDPR which many web application developers are currently working to fully implement. We are committed to keeping it as a high priority and will implement it on this website as soon as we are able to.
Aeolos Ltd is allowed to archive over mentioned data for the time the user is an active member. All users have the right to change or delete their personal data and can claim their objection to any kind of data process related to them through website communication. Aeolos Ltd will make all efforts to delete this information from its files.
Aeolos Ltd is not obliged to follow and control all data entered by users and is not responsible for anything related to that.
