Protección de datos

Las normas europeas de protección de datos se centran en empoderar a las personas, dándoles control sobre cómo se utilizan sus datos personales. En Eurofound nos tomamos esta obligación muy en serio. La protección de datos y la privacidad están integradas en nuestro trabajo diario, desde nuestras actividades de comunicación hasta nuestras encuestas y publicaciones de investigación a nivel europeo.

En esta página encontrarás información sobre las razones por las que podemos procesar datos personales y qué tipos de datos procesamos, así como sobre tus derechos y datos de contacto en caso de que tengas alguna pregunta.

Eurofound puede procesar tus datos personales (también conocidos como información personal) por varios motivos: desde atender solicitudes públicas de información, información de visitantes, gestión de quejas, invitarte a una reunión o a uno de nuestros proyectos de investigación, o simplemente porque los envías al suscribirte a publicaciones o eventos en nuestra web. Sea cual sea el motivo, la tramitación se realiza siempre conforme al Reglamento (UE) 2018/1725 del Parlamento Europeo y del Consejo de 23 de octubre de 2018(opens in new tab)This link opens in a new tab.

Todos los fines de tratamiento pueden encontrarse en nuestro Registro de Protección de Datos que aparece a continuación, o en nuestros avisos de protección de datos. Ambos se actualizan regularmente, por lo que te recomendamos consultarlos periódicamente.

Los tipos de datos personales dependen del propósito del tratamiento. Pueden incluir tu nombre y datos de contacto, tu currículum y cualquier documento de certificación (al solicitar un trabajo o una becaria), tus necesidades dietéticas y de movilidad (al asistir a un evento organizado por Eurofound) o la aceptación de cookies.

Las categorías exactas de datos personales se identifican en el aviso de protección de datos correspondiente.

En la mayoría de las situaciones, Eurofound procesa tus datos personales para la realización de una tarea realizada en interés público, para cumplir con una obligación legal o basándose en tu consentimiento. Sin embargo, podrían aplicarse otras bases legales. La información detallada sobre la base legal siempre se proporciona en el Aviso de Protección de Datos correspondiente.

Salvo que se indique lo contrario en un Aviso de Protección de Datos específico, el acceso a tus datos personales se concederá exclusivamente a nuestro personal, que debe cumplir con las obligaciones legales de confidencialidad.

Para cada operación de procesamiento existe un periodo de conservación definido que especifica durante el cual se conservan tus datos personales. Dependiendo de la operación de procesamiento, el periodo de retención puede variar. El periodo exacto de conservación se especifica en el aviso de protección de datos correspondiente.

El Reglamento (UE) 2018/1725 le otorga, como sujeto de datos, la posibilidad de ejercer los siguientes derechos:

  • Saber cuándo se están procesando tus datos personales

  • Accede a tus datos personales

  • Ten una copia de tus datos personales

  • Rectifica tus datos personales si son inexactos o incompletos

  • Haz que tus datos sean eliminados

  • Restringir el procesamiento de tus datos

  • objetar el tratamiento de tus datos

  • portar tus datos, y

  • no estar sujeto a decisiones automáticas (es decir, tomadas únicamente por máquinas) que te afecten.

El ejercicio de estos derechos es libre. Sin embargo, cuando las solicitudes son manifiestamente infundadas o excesivas, Eurofound puede negarse a actuar sobre dichas peticiones. Si este es el caso, se le informará en consecuencia.

Para ejercer cualquiera de estos derechos, por favor envíe su solicitud por correo electrónico o por correo postal, en un sobre sellado. Consulta los contactos más abajo. Debes dejar claro en tu solicitud qué derecho(s) estás ejerciendo.

También debes proporcionar una copia de un documento de identificación, por ejemplo un carné de identidad o pasaporte. Los siguientes datos deben ser visibles: nombre, número de identificación, país de emisión, periodo de validez y fecha de nacimiento. Cualquier otro dato (por ejemplo, foto o firma) puede estar tachado. Utilizaremos estos datos exclusivamente para verificar tu identidad. Una vez que tu solicitud haya sido atendida, destruiremos el documento de forma segura. En principio, no aceptaremos ningún otro medio de prueba de su identidad. Si desea proponer alternativas, evaluaremos su adecuación caso por caso.

El Responsable de Protección de Datos (DPO) de Eurofound puede, a petición de cualquier persona, investigar asuntos y sucesos directamente relacionados con sus tareas. Si desea aprovechar esta oportunidad, por favor envíe su solicitud de investigación a DataProtectionOfficer@eurofound.europa.eu.

La DPO enviará un acuse de recibo en un plazo de 15 días laborables y verificará si la solicitud está bajo su responsabilidad y si debe tratarse como confidencial.

El DPO informará a la persona que encargó la investigación a más tardar tres meses tras recibir la solicitud, salvo en caso de uso evidente de este derecho, en cuyo caso no se realizará ningún informe. Sin embargo, este plazo puede suspenderse hasta que el DPO obtenga cualquier información considerada necesaria para concluir la investigación.
