9. Is my data safe?

The Company considers the privacy of the persons whose personal data it processes extremely important and makes every effort to protect them, both in terms of the confidentiality/confidentiality of the information, and in terms of its integrity (not to be altered, not accidentally damaged etc.).

In this context, the Company takes all appropriate organizational and technical measures, designed to protect information from loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, distortion or destruction and takes care of the legitimate and legal collection and processing of personal data as well as for their safe keeping in accordance with the relevant provisions of both Greek, Community and international law regarding the protection of individuals from the processing of personal data, as well as the decisions of the Personal Data Protection Authority, preserving privacy and the confidentiality of any information that comes to its knowledge. In particular, this Policy fully takes into account the provisions and articles of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament on the protection of natural persons against the processing of personal data and on the free movement of data (“General Data Protection Regulation” – “GDPR”) as well as its implementing provisions and legislation and constantly makes every effort to comply with it and the other relevant Personal Data Protection Laws in force at any given time.

For example, we mention that:

I) Access to the Company’s systems is controlled by a firewall, which allows the use of specific services by users while prohibiting, at the same time, access to the Company’s systems and databases with confidential data and information.

III) Furthermore, the Company’s website has an SSL protocol certificate. The SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) protocol is today the global standard on the internet for certifying websites to web users and for encrypting data between web users and web servers. An encrypted SSL communication requires that all information sent between a client and a server be encrypted by the sending software and decrypted by the receiving software, thus protecting personal information in transit. In addition, all information sent with the SSL protocol is protected by a mechanism that automatically checks if the data has been changed in transit.
