3. Personal information collected by this site and why we collect it
This site collects and uses personal information for the following reasons:
3.1 Website traffic monitoring
This site uses Google Analytics (GA) to track visitors/users activity. We use this data to determine the number of our site visitors, to better understand how they find and use our web pages and to see their course inside the site. Although GA records data such as your geographic location, your device, your web browser and your operating system, none of this information identifies you to us. GA also records your computer’s IP address, which could be used to identify you, but Google does not provide us access to it. We believe that Google is a third data processor that is compliant with the requirements of European legislation.
3.2 Contact forms and e-mail links
If you choose to contact us using a contact form or an email link, none of the data you provide will be stored to our site or transferred or processed by any third party data processor. Instead, these data will be sent to us via an email with SMTP protocol (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol). Our SMTP servers are protected by a TLS security protocol (also known as SSL), meaning that email content is encrypted before being sent over the Internet. The content of the email is decrypted by our local computers and devices.

5. How we manage your personal data
At technoship.gr we place the highest priority on the protection of your personal data and comply with the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). We have taken the technical measures to ensure the protection of personal data while transmitting, managing and storing, but the nature of the internet is such that nothing can guarantee absolute protection. For this reason, you can also contact us by alternative means (e.g. by telephone).
6. Your rights about your personal data
You have the right to request details about the information we collect about you and to request us to correct inaccuracies in them, to object to or request the restriction of processing, as well as to request access, erasure or portability of your information. This does not include data that we are required to keep for administrative, legal or security reasons.
Under the laws of some jurisdictions, we may decline to process requests that are unreasonably repetitive, require disproportionate technical effort, jeopardise the privacy of others, are extremely impractical, or for which access is not otherwise required by local law.
You may lodge a complaint with the relevant supervisory authority if you consider that our processing of your personal data infringes applicable law. Contact details for all EU Supervisory Authorities can be found here.
7. Data breaches
For any of your personal information stored in our database, all necessary steps will be taken to secure them.
