    Contact form

    We will also collect data from the contact forms in order to reply to your request or process your suggestion and solely for those purposes.

    Sending CVs:

    If you send us a CV we will use the data it contains in the next selection processes.

    IP address

    The website servers will automatically detect the IP address and domain name used by the user. An IP address is a number automatically assigned to a computer when it connects to the Internet. All this information is recorded in a duly registered server activity file which enables further data processing in order to obtain strictly statistical measurements allowing us to become aware of the number of page impressions, the number of visits to the web services, the order of those visits, access point, etc.  Notwithstanding that the Spanish Data Protection Agency considers the IP address to be personal data, the owner of the portal cannot acquire any information about the owner of the Internet connection to which it corresponds, by itself, nor does it intend to do so, unless it has been harmed. This data will be stored and used only for monitoring and compiling access and website visit statistics, and in no case will be communicated or transferred to third parties.

    We will preserve the data during the entire duration of the business relationship with us and subsequently for any period that is essential for complying with any necessary legal obligations. In the case of the CVs and job applications, these will be retained for a maximum of two years following receipt, after which they will be destroyed.

    In cases where you revoke the consent you previously granted to some type of processing or exercise your right to erase your personal data, please bear in mind that we are required to retain said blocked information, to make it available to any courts, tribunals and bodies with jurisdiction, during the legally established limitation periods for addressing HIMOINSA’s possible liabilities, arising from processing your data.

     

    Legal basis for processing

    We base the processing of your data on:

    • In the case of customers and suppliers your contact details and the information supplied by you in the course of contractual performance which are necessary to activate the business relationship.
    • In the case of CVs and job applications we will base any processing on the data subject’s consent, insofar as they have supplied their CV to us voluntarily and subsequently on the possible pre-contractual relationship, if it is included within our company’s recruitment process.
    • In the case of contact forms where THE USER provides their data to obtain information on HIMOINSA’s products or for any other matter that does not give rise to a customer/supplier relationship, the data collection form will contain an authorisation clause whose acceptance will mean that they give their full consent to the automated processing of the data provided, in accordance with the data protection act.
