Edge7 Networks Privacy Policy

​

Introduction 

​

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) apply across the European Union – including Ireland. GDPR creates uniform rules around data and privacy. Under GDPR, organisations will now be responsible for protecting privacy, not individuals. This means that as an employer, the company has a number of responsibilities under the law across six key principles: 

• Transparency, fairness and lawfulness in the handling and use of personal data. 

• Limiting the processing of personal data to specified, explicit and legitimate purposes. 

• Minimising the collection and storage of personal data. 

• Ensuring accuracy of personal data and enabling it to be erased or rectified. 

• Limiting the storage of personal data. 

• Ensuring security, integrity and confidentiality of personal data.

​

To ensure transparency, this privacy notice sets out the data we hold relating to  our engagement with the company, along with how we use, share and retain it.
