  • The processing of such data on behalf of the customer should only be carried out with a prior agreement between both parties and after having carried out an appropriate data protection impact assessment prior to its processing.

Purpose(s) of the processing of personal data 

  • As data controller
    • Manage access to and use of the cloud communications services platform.
    • Investigation and prevention of activities likely to constitute fraudulent use of the services.
    • Fulfillment of obligations that correspond to NUMINTEC by legal mandate.
    • Analysis of the use of the services to improve the service provided.
  • As processor
    • NUMINTEC will process the data only for the purpose of providing the contracted services and in accordance with the General Terms and Conditions of Contract of the Service

Nature of the processing

  • The provision of the services contracted by clients entails the processing of personal data that our clients have responsibility for. Numintec processes data under the instructions of its clients and in accordance with the features established in the product, and has no direct dealings with the individuals whose personal data it processes.
  • It involves the following activites:
    • Recording and storage of Customer’s information
    • Deletion or destruction of information when required by the Customer and upon termination of service
    • Restrict the processing of information at the request of the Client or competent authority.
  • The data is provided by the Client, as the data controller, when making use of the Services.
  • All data is stored on servers in the EU using services provided by third parties as stipulated in ANNEX IV List of Sub-Processors.
  • The processing in the cloud communications platform is automated, thus Numintec staff do not have access to the Client’s data. If necessary, this access will solely occur at the express request and under the supervision of the Client, for example, in the event that support is required for its use or resolution of an issue notified by the Client.
  • Numintec considers that it does not have instructions to process such other personal data that may occasionally be included in the content managed by the Client or by the communication channels, for example, the provided chat service.
  • Any additional personal data that is processed by Numintec on behalf of the Customer must be agreed as an amendment to this DPA.
  • It should be noted that NUMINTEC is responsible for the processing of all call records and information generated and that it must keep as a telecommunications operator, under Law 11/2022, of June 28, General Telecommunications and Law 25/2007, of October 18, on the conservation of data related to electronic communications and public communications networks.
  • Likewise, NUMINTEC, as the controller, may collect and keep information for the purpose of prevention, detection, investigation and limitation of those activities that may constitute a fraudulent use of the services, such as abusive use of calls, spoofing of numbering and others. The detection of these activities may involve the notification of the facts to the client and, if there are indications that they constitute a criminal activity, to the corresponding authorities.

Duration of the processing

  • This APD applies for as long as the service contract entered into by both parties is in force.
  • After the termination of the contract, Numintec shall maintain its obligations with respect to the processed data for which it is also responsible in accordance with current legislation.

Information retention periods

  • It is established that the controller will keep the data while the service contract signed by both parties is in force.
  • In accordance with the terms stipulated in the service contract and/or the General Terms and Conditions of Contract, after a period of ninety (90) days from the disconnection or, where appropriate, the term stipulated in the conditions of the service contract, Numintec will definitively delete the data contained in its databases, except in those circumstances in which legal obligations or responsibilities may arise from the execution of the  provision of the service, in which case Numintec may keep a copy, with the data duly blocked, until the cessation of said responsibilities or obligations.

ANNEX III.  Technical and organisational measures to ensure data security

Numintec applies the necessary technical and organizational security measures to ensure an adequate level of information security in order to protect the confidentiality of personal data, as well as protect them against accidental or unlawful destruction or accidental loss, alteration, disclosure or unauthorized access. taking into account the nature, scope, context and purpose of the processing, as well as the risks to the rights and freedoms of natural persons.

These measures are implemented under the framework of an Information Security Management System that has ISO 27001:2013 and ISO 27017:2015 certification.

In particular, and by way of summary, said Information Security Management System includes measures such as:

  1. Data access policies and procedures to ensure that access to NUMINTEC’s computer systems is done through individual users and passwords, applying the least privilege rules and limiting access to data to those employees who strictly require it to perform their work.
  2. Backup copies, where appropriate, of the personal data processed by the data controllers that require guarantees of availability and integrity.
  3. Encryption of information in transit and in storage.
  4. Continuous surveillance and monitoring of systems and networks to detect and minimize the impact of any malfunction or threat.
  5. Logging of events and activities of users and administrators.
  6. Security configurations and perimeter protection systems in the network to prevent intrusions, and antivirus protection of our computer systems.
  7. Hardening of systems and networks to limit services, ports and protocols to those strictly necessary and thus minimize exposure to attacks and vulnerabilities.
  8. Availability of a log of security incidents and mechanisms and procedures for reporting security breaches.
  9. Physical control of access and protection of the equipment, people and facilities where the data is processed.
  10. Servers hosted in external data centers that offer full security guarantees with the relevant ISO 27001 certifications.
  11. In the case of managing supports or documents with the personal data of the person responsible for the treatment, these are duly guarded under cabinets or spaces provided with locking devices.
  12. Regular surveillance, evaluation and assessment of the effectiveness of technical and organizational measures to ensure the security of the treatment within the framework of the periodic reviews and audits required by ISO 27001.
