Your Rights. 

You have the right to:

• Request access to Your personal data (commonly known as a ” data subject access request”). This enables You to receive a
  copy of the personal data we hold about You and to check that we are lawfully processing it.
• Request correction of the personal data that we hold about You. This enables You to have any incomplete or inaccurate
  data we hold about You corrected, though we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data You provide to us.
• Request erasure of Your personal data. This enables You to ask us to delete or remove personal data where there is no good
  reason for us continuing to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove Your personal data where You have
  successfully exercised Your right to object to processing (see below), where we may have processed Your information unlawfully
  or where we are required to erase Your personal data to comply with local law. Note, however, that we may not always be able to comply with Your request of erasure for specific legal reasons which will be notified to You, if applicable, at the time of Your request.
• Object to processing of Your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about Your particular situation which makes You want to object to processing on this ground as You feel it impacts on Your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object where we are processing Your personal data for direct marketing purposes. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process Your information which override Your rights and freedoms.
• Request restriction of processing of Your personal data. This enables You to ask us to suspend the processing of Your personal data in the following scenarios: (a) if You want us to establish the data's accuracy; (b) where our use of the data is unlawful but You do not want us to erase it; (c) where You need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as You need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims; or (d) You have objected to our use of Your data but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it.
• Request the transfer of Your personal data to You or to a third party. We will provide to You, or a third party You have chosen, Your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Note that this right only applies to automated information which You initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform a contract with You.
• Withdraw consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process Your personal data. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before You withdraw Your consent. If You withdraw Your consent, we may not be able to provide certain products or services to You. We will advise You if this is the case at the time You withdraw Your consent.

Contact Us. To that effect the User may send an email to legal@opportunitynetwork.com, enclosing a copy of its ID or equivalent official document certifying its identity. We may reject unreasonably repetitive requests, require disproportionate technical effort (for example, developing a new system or fundamentally changing an existing practice), or risk the privacy of others. 

Data Protection Authorities. Furthermore, if appropriate, the User also has the right to make a complaint to the relevant data protection supervisory authority, e.g. the Spanish Data Protection Authority (“AEPD”) or the UK Data Protection Authority (“ICO”), especially if he/she considers that Opportunity Network has not adequately addressed its rights.

Access by Employees. We restrict access to Personal Information to Opportunity Network employees, contractors, and agents who need to know that information to process it for Us, and who are subject to strict contractual confidentiality obligations and may be disciplined or terminated if they fail to meet these obligations.

Our Privacy Policy does not apply to services offered by other companies or individuals, including products or sites that may include Opportunity Network Services or other sites linked from our Services. Our Privacy Policy does not cover the information practices of other companies and organizations who advertise our Services, and who may use cookies, pixel tags, and other technologies to serve and offer relevant ads.

Potential Security Breaches. Whilst Opportunity Network has done all of this to comply with the standards required by applicable laws, Opportunity Network cannot guarantee that such information will not be subject to unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration or destruction, Opportunity Network has physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards in place to protect information. Information is stored on Opportunity Network’s servers and protected by secured networks to which access is limited to a few Opportunity Network’s authorized employees and personnel. However, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. If Opportunity Network learns of a security systems breach, then we may attempt to notify the User electronically so that he/she will be able to take appropriate protective steps. We may also have the obligation to contact the relevant Data Protection Authority according to the current legislation in force. Furthermore, Opportunity Network may also post a notice on the Service platform whether a security breach occurs.

Generally speaking, cookies proprietary of one webpage may be sent to a user’s terminal equipment from a computer or domain managed by such a webpage and from which the requested service is provided. On the other hand, there may be third-party cookies sent to a user’s terminal equipment from a computer or domain that is not managed by the said webpage, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through cookies. A website may also use session cookies (i.e. cookies collecting and storing data while a user accesses a website). Lastly, there are the so-called persistent cookies. Persistent cookies are stored in a user’s terminal so that the collected data can be accessed and processed during a period defined by the entity responsible for the cookie, which could range all the way from a few minutes to several years. For the avoidance of doubt, users do not provide this information directly. Rather than that, these data are automatically collected as a means of supporting a user’s visit to a website.

1. Technical cookies (i.e. own csfr token session Cookies). These Cookies enable the User to browse through the Website using the different features and services, for example, session cookies which allow to identify the User session or to carry out the authentication for access to restricted areas.

These Cookies enable Opportunity Network to quantify the number of Users and to implement the measurement and statistical analysis of the Services usage. Therefore, Opportunity Network analyzes the User’s browsing on the Website in order to improve the offered Services.
