Introduction

General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
Article 13 of Regulation EU 2016/679

Purpose of this Notice

This Privacy Notice provides mandatory information as required under Articles 13 and 14 of the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) regarding the transparency of personal data processing. Definitions of certain terms within this notice are explained in the appendix.

The data of Controller for Personal Data

The Data Controller for the personal data processed by us is the Client Company of OVVO OPTICS, LLC. (the employer of the natural person whose data is collected, hereafter referred to as the Data Subject). The Data Controller will pass personal data of their employees to OVVO OPTICS, LLC. to manage transaction on behalf of those employees in connection with their business. OVVO OPTICS, LLC., as Data Processor acting on the instructions of the Data Controller under a written contract with them, will subsequently use that personal data to facilitate transactions for the Data Subject. It is this contract which forms the ‘Legal Basis’ for the processing of personal data carried out by OVVO OPTICS, LLC. in these circumstances.

OVVO OPTICS, LLC. will also become a Data Controller if it collects additional personal data directly from a Data Subject. In these circumstances OVVO OPTICS, LLC. will be acting under a ‘Legitimate Interest’ to legally process the data for the management of transaction for the Data Subject and to fulfill the contractual requirements for its Client. OVVO OPTICS, LLC. also acts as a Data Controller for any personal data held regarding its own employees, and legally processes this data under its Contract of Employment with those Data Subjects.

Your Rights

As a Data Subject you have rights under the GDPR. These rights can be seen below. OVVO Optics, LLC. will always fully respect your rights regarding the processing of your personal data, and has provided below the details of the person to contact if you have any concerns or questions regarding how we process your data, or if you wish to exercise any rights you have under the GDPR.

Contact Details

The identity and contact detail for the Data Protection Officer within OVVO OPTICS, LLC. is:

Ramsey, NJ 07446

Data Protection Principles

OVVO OPTICS, LLC. has adopted the following principles to govern its collection and processing of Personal Data:

  • Personal Data shall be processed lawfully, fairly, and in a transparent manner.
  • The Personal Data collected will only be those specifically required to fulfill transactional requirements. Such data may be collected directly from the Data Subject or provided to OVVO OPTICS, LLC. via his/her employer. Such data will only be processed for that purpose.
  • Personal Data shall only be retained for as long as it is required to fulfill contractual requirements, or to provide statistics to our Client Company.
  • Personal Data shall be adequate, relevant, and limited to what is necessary in relation to the purposes for which they are collected and/or processed. Personal Data shall be accurate and, where necessary, kept up to date.
  • The Data Subject has the right to request from OVVO OPTICS, LLC. access to and rectification or erasure of their personal data, to object to or request restriction of processing concerning the data, or to the right to data portability. In each case such a request must be put in writing as in Section 3 above.
  • The Data Subject has the right to make a complaint directly to a supervisory authority within their own country. Personal Data shall only be processed based on the legal basis explained in section 2 above, except where such interests are overridden by the fundamental rights and freedoms of the Data Subject which will always take precedent. If the Data Subject has provided specific additional Consent to the processing, then such consent may be withdrawn at any time (but may then result in an inability to fulfill transactional requirements).

OVVO OPTICS, LLC. will not use personal data for any monitoring or profiling activity or process, and will not adopt any automated decision making processes.

Transfer to Third Parties

To fulfill the transactional arrangements for a Data Subject it will in most cases be necessary to process personal data via a third party (these will include but are not limited to airlines, hotels, car hire companies, and Visa or Passport companies). Personal Data shall only be transferred to, or processed by, third party companies where such companies are necessary for the fulfillment of the transactional arrangements.

Personal Data shall not be transferred to a country or territory outside the European Economic Area (EEA) unless the transfer is made to a country or territory recognized by the EU as having an adequate level of Data Security, or is made with the consent of the Data Subject, or is made to satisfy the Legitimate Interest of OVVO OPTICS, LLC. in regard to its contractual arrangements with its clients.

All internal group transfers of Personal Data shall be subject to written agreements under the Company’s Intra Group Data Transfer Agreement (IGDTA) for internal Data transfers which are based on Standard Contractual Clauses recognized by the European Data Protection Authority.
