Types of data collected
Notification of incidents
Irrespective of every possible endeavour, there is no method of transmission by Internet and no method of electronic storage, which is completely secure. Consequently, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
If we were to become aware of a security breach, we would advise the users concerned, so that they could take the appropriate measures. Our notification procedures take account of our legal duties, whether at the national or European level. We undertake to keep our customers fully informed on all the issues relevant to the security of their account and to provide them with all the information necessary to assist them to comply with their own regulatory obligations with respect to reporting.
No personal data of the user of the Akiani website is published, exchanged, transferred, assigned or sold in any medium whatsoever to third parties without the knowledge of the user. Only the resale of Akiani and its rights would allow the transfer of the said data to the possible acquirer, which would in its turn be bound by the same duty of storage and modification of the data towards the user of the Akiani website.
Security
To ensure the security and confidentiality of personal data and personal health data Akiani uses networks protected by standard features, such as fire-walls, pseudonymisation and passwords.
When processing personal data Akiani takes all reasonable measures for their protection against loss of any kind, misuse, unauthorised access, disclosure, modification or destruction.
