The website www.thesparks.gr is managed by the association under the name “Athlitikos Omilos Paianias” (President: Panagiotis Fykas). This Privacy Policy explains our privacy practices regarding the personal information (as defined below) that we collect, store, share, and use.
Personal Data Protection
Data is a responsibility and should only be collected and processed when absolutely necessary.
We will never sell, rent, distribute, or otherwise disclose your personal information.
Applicable Legislation
This website is designed to comply with the following national and international data protection and privacy regulations:
EU General Data Protection Regulation 2018 (GDPR)
Personal Information This Website Collects and Why
This website collects and uses personal information for the following reasons:
Website Traffic Monitoring
Like most websites, this one uses Google Analytics (GA) to monitor user activity. We use this data to determine the number of people using our website, to better understand how they find and use our pages, and to track their journey through the site.
Although GA records data such as your geographical location, device, internet browser, and operating system, none of this information personally identifies you to us. GA also records your computer’s IP address, which could be used to identify you, but Google does not provide access to this. We consider Google a third-party data processor.
GA uses cookies — details of which can be found in Google’s developer guides. For your information, our site uses the GA gtag implementation.
Disabling cookies in your browser will prevent GA from tracking any part of your visit to pages on this website.
Contact Forms and Email Links
If you choose to contact us using the contact form or an email link, none of the data you provide will be stored by this website or passed to or processed by any third-party data processor (as defined below). Instead, the data will be sent to us via email, and the contents of the email will be encrypted before being transmitted over the internet. The email contents will be decrypted by our local computers and devices.
About This Website’s Server
All web traffic (file transfers) between this website and your browser is encrypted and delivered over HTTPS.
Our Third-Party Data Processors
We use a number of third-party service providers to process personal data on our behalf. These entities have been carefully selected and all comply with the legislation set out in the applicable regulations. Both of these providers are based in the USA and are certified under the EU-U.S Privacy Shield framework.
– Google (Privacy Policy)
Data Breaches
We will report any unlawful data breach of this website’s database or the database(s) of any of our third-party data processors to all relevant individuals and authorities within 72 hours of the breach if it is apparent that identifiable personal data has been stolen.
Changes to Our Privacy Policy
This privacy policy may change from time to time in accordance with legislation or industry developments. We will explicitly notify users of any policy changes. However, we recommend you check this page occasionally for any changes you may not have been notified about.
