1. Data Protection – Key definitions and principles

• GDPR: the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 is an EU regulation on personal data protection and privacy. GDPR achieves the uniformity in the data protection rules applicable to all individuals within the European Union.
   
• Personal Data: any information related to an identified individual or that may allow to directly or indirectly identify an individual (e.g. name, phone number, job title). Personal Data does not include any information or data related to legal entities (e.g. investment funds, securities issuers...).
   
• Processing: any operation or set of operations which is performed on Personal Data or on sets of Personal Data, whether or not by automated means (e.g. collection, recording, organization, storage, consultation).
   
• Data controller: the person or entity that determines the purpose and means of the processing of the Personal Data.

 

2. Scope of Policy

The present Organisme de centralisation des oppositions sur titres au porteur Data Protection Policy (the "Policy") explains how and why LuxSE collects and uses your Personal Data when you request:

• The placement of a stop on a bearer security;

• The confirmation of a "no-stop" or "no-forfeiture"; or
• Any information or research of information in relation to the placement or the termination of stop(s) on bearer securities.

In all those cases, LuxSE acts as data controller.
