The integrity of your personal data is vital for Dimensional Control Systems, and therefore, we welcome the extra transparency and protection of your personal data that the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) requires.
Whether you are a valued Customer, Supplier, Commercial or Administrative Intermediary, a Digital Registrant, a Physical Registrant, a Digital Visitor or a Facility Visitor, it’s important to us that you feel safe about how we treat your personal data.
Accordingly, we outline what types of personal data we collect from you, why, and what happens to your data while in our care. We also explain your rights under the GDPR and give you contact details in case you have any questions or requests about your data.
To understand what legal ground we rely on for each of the purposes described below, you are informed at the point of data collection where you will also be referred to this Dimensional Control Systems Privacy Statement. Regarding retention periods, we store personal data only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Statement unless a longer storage period is required for legitimate reasons, required by law, or as necessary to justify or defend a legal claim. If you gave your consent for the use of your data, you may withdraw that consent at any time, and we will stop using your data. Your withdrawal of consent rights, as well as the specific retention periods, are provided to you in the information where we initially collected your personal data.
Please be aware that you may appear in multiple categories as described above, depending on your relationship and activities with Dimensional Control Systems. For example, you may be considered a Customer, a Digital Registrant, and a Facility Visitor if you purchased our products, filled in one of our web forms, and visited a Dimensional Control Systems site at some point in time.
