Welcome to https://www.assomalta.com (the “Site”). We understand that online privacy is important to users of our Site, particularly when conducting business. This policy governs our privacy policies with respect to those users of the Site (“Visitors”) who visit without transacting business and Visitors who register to transact business on the Site and make use of the various services offered by
Assomalta (collectively, “Services”) (“Authorised Customers”).
“Personally Identifiable Information”
Refers to any information that identifies or can be used to identify, contact or locate the person to whom such information relates, including but not limited to name, address, telephone number, fax number, e-mail address, financial profiles, social security number and credit card information. Personally identifiable information does not include information collected anonymously (i.e., without identification of the individual user) or demographic information that is not linked to an identified individual.
What personally identifiable information is collected?
We may collect basic user profile information from all our visitors. We collect the following additional information from our authorised customers: the name, email address, phone number, address, social media profile information, the nature and size of the business.
Which organisations are collecting the information?
In addition to our direct collection of information, our third-party service providers (such as credit card companies, clearing houses and banks) who may provide services such as credit, insurance and security deposit services may collect this information from our visitors and authorised customers. We do not control how these third parties use this information, but we do ask them to disclose how they use the personal information provided to them by authorised visitors and customers. Some of these third parties may be intermediaries who act only as links in the distribution chain and do not store, retain or use the information provided to them.
How does the Site use personally identifiable information?
With whom can information be shared?
Personally identifiable information about Authorised Customers may be shared with other Authorised Customers who wish to evaluate potential transactions with other Authorised Customers. We may share aggregate information about our Visitors, including demographic data about our Visitors and Authorised Customers, with our affiliated agencies and third-party vendors. We also offer the opportunity to “opt-out” of receiving information or being contacted by us or any agency acting on our behalf.
How is personally identifiable information stored?
Personally identifiable information collected by Assomalta is stored securely and is not accessible to third parties or employees of Assomalta except for use as indicated above.
What choices are available to visitors regarding the collection, use and distribution of information?
Visitors and authorised customers may opt-out of receiving requested information or of being contacted by us and/or our suppliers and affiliated agencies by replying to emails as indicated or by contacting us at segr.generale@assomalta.com
Cookies
A cookie is a string of information that a website stores on a visitor’s computer and that the visitor’s browser provides to the website each time the visitor returns.
We use “cookies” to collect information. You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is sent. However, if you do not accept cookies, you may not be able to use certain parts of our Service.
Are cookies used on the site?
Cookies are used for a number of reasons. We use cookies to obtain information about our visitors’ preferences and the services they select. We also use cookies for security reasons to protect our Authorised Customers. For example, if an Authorised Customer is logged in and the site remains unused for more than 10 minutes, we will automatically log the Authorised Customer out. Visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers should set their browser to refuse cookies before using https://www.assomalta.com/en/cookie-policy-ue , with the disadvantage that some website features may not function properly without the help of cookies.
Cookies used by our service providers
Our service providers use cookies and these cookies may be stored on your computer when you visit our website. You can find more details about which cookies are used on our cookie information page.
How does Assomalta use login information?
Assomalta uses login information, including but not limited to IP addresses, ISP and browser types, browser version, pages visited, date and time of visit, to analyse trends, administer the Site, track a user’s movement and usage, and gather broad demographic information.
Which partners or service providers have access to the personally identifiable information of visitors and/or authorised customers on the site?
Assomalta has entered into and will continue to enter into partnerships and other affiliations with a number of suppliers. These providers may have access to certain personally identifiable information on a need to know basis in order to assess authorised customers for service eligibility. Our privacy policy does not cover their collection or use of this information.
How does the Site maintain the security of personally identifiable information?
All of our employees are familiar with our security policy and practices. The personally identifiable information of our authorised visitors and customers is only accessible by a limited number of qualified employees who are provided with a password to access the information. We regularly review our security systems and processes. Sensitive information, such as credit card numbers or social security numbers, is protected by encryption protocols, which are in place to protect information sent over the Internet. Although we take commercially reasonable steps to maintain a secure site, electronic communications and databases are subject to error, tampering and intrusion and we cannot guarantee or warrant that such events will not occur and we will not be liable to Visitors or Authorised Customers for such events.
Can a Visitor delete or deactivate Personally Identifiable Information collected by the Site?
We provide a mechanism for visitors and authorised customers to delete/deactivate personally identifiable information from the Site’s database by contacting us. However, due to backups and deletion records, it may be impossible to delete a visitor’s entry without retaining some residual information. An individual who requests deactivation of personally identifiable information will have this information functionally deleted and we will not sell, transfer or use personally identifiable information about that individual in any way in the future.
