What is collected and why

When you contact ALTEA Security through the contact form or by email, the following information is collected: your email address, your name (if provided) and the content of your message.

This information is used solely to respond to your enquiry and, where requested, to prepare a proposal for services. The legal basis is taking steps at your request before entering into a contract (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR) and ALTEA Security’s legitimate interest in responding to business enquiries (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).

Providing this information is voluntary, but an email address is necessary if you expect a reply.

The website infrastructure provider may process standard technical logs, including IP addresses, requested pages and timestamps, for website operation, security and troubleshooting. This is based on legitimate interest. This website does not use analytics, advertising or tracking technologies.

Who receives your data

The following service providers may process personal data in connection with this website:

• Cloudflare: website hosting and email forwarding.
• Brevo (Sendinblue SAS, France): delivery of contact form messages.
• Google: email hosting and storage of correspondence.

Personal data is disclosed to these providers only as necessary to operate the website and handle enquiries. Where personal data is transferred outside the European Economic Area, appropriate safeguards are used in accordance with GDPR requirements, such as an adequacy decision or the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses, where applicable. Details of the safeguards are available on request.

Your personal data is not sold or used for advertising purposes.

How long it is kept

Messages are kept while your enquiry is being handled and deleted within 12 months of the last communication if no engagement follows. If you become a client, the engagement agreement governs how your data is handled.
