EURELEC Privacy Notice for Website Visitors
Last updated: 2025 02 18
Over the past few years, EURELEC has faced repeated fraud attempts from scammers creating duplicate and fake websites to impersonate EURELEC and deceive EURELEC's customers, partners and providers. To address this, EURELEC has decided to launch an official website as a trusted point of contact for anyone approached by scammers (the "Website").

About this Notice
1. 1 This Privacy Notice (the “Notice”) describes how we process all information which, taken alone or in combination with other information, relates to you (“Personal data”) as a website visitor of EURELEC Trading SC ("EURELEC", “we” or “our”) Website page: https://www.eurelec-trading.eu .
​
1. 2 This Notice also sets out your rights in relation to the Personal data about you that we process, and explains how you can exercise them.
​
1. 3 EURELEC takes its responsibilities as regards data protection very seriously. That is why we have developed this Notice setting out the standards to which we operate in order to protect your Personal data.
1. 4 For the purposes of this Notice, EURELEC acts as controller for your Personal data. In its capacity as controller, EURELEC is responsible for ensuring that Personal data is processed in accordance with current data protection legislation, and in particular the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”).
1. 5 Please take the time to read this Notice carefully. If you have any questions or comments, please contact us by emailing privacy@eurelectrading.eu.
2. What Personal data we collect and why
2.2 The types of Personal data that we collect, and the reasons why we process it include: ​​​​​​​​​​​​​

​​​​​​​​​​​ 3. Who we share your data with
3.1 We may communicate your Personal data to the following categories of recipients:
​
(a) companies in our group for purposes in accordance with this Notice. We take precautions to ensure that access to Personal data is limited to staff members with a legitimate business need.
​
(b) our third-party suppliers, service providers and partners who provide us with data processing services or who process the Personal data for the purposes set out in this Notice.
​
(c) any relevant law enforcement agency, regulator, government agency, court or other third party when we judge that it is necessary for us to divulge the information (i) in accordance with applicable laws or regulations, (ii) to assert or defend our rights, or (iii) to protect our vital interests or those of any other person.
(d) our auditors, advisers, legal representatives and similar agents within the context of the consultancy services that they supply to us for legitimate commercial purposes and under a contractual prohibition to use the Personal data for other purposes.
4. International data transfers
​
Your Personal data may be transferred to and processed in countries other than your country of residence. The data protection laws in place in these countries may differ from those in place in your own country. More precisely, our servers are located within the EEA, whereas our group companies and our service providers and third-party partners operate all over the world.
​
This means that when we collect your Personal data, we may process it in all these countries. However, we have taken appropriate protection measures to require that your Personal data continues to be protected in accordance with this Notice.
​
This includes putting in place an intragroup framework data transfer agreement based on the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses for the transfer of Personal data between companies in our group, requiring that all group companies protect the Personal data originating from the EEA that they process in accordance with European Union data protection laws (the “Intragroup Framework Data Transfer Agreement”). Our Intragroup Framework Data Transfer Agreement (or extracts from it) can be provided on request.
​
We have put in place similar appropriate safeguards with our third-party service providers and partners and further details can be supplied on request.
​
5. Data retention
​​
We keep the Personal data that we collect from you when we have a legitimate business need to do so (for example, to respond to your inquiry). When we do not have any legitimate business need to process your Personal data, we will delete or anonymise it, or if this is impossible (because, for example, your Personal data has been stored in a backup archive), we will store it securely and isolate it from any further processing until it can be deleted.
​
6. Your data protection rights
​
You have the following data protection rights:
​
(a) If you wish to access, correct or update your Personal data, or ask us to delete it, you can do so at any time by contacting privacy@eurelectrading.eu.
​
(b) If your Personal data is being processed on the basis of our legitimate interest, you have the right to object to the processing of your Personal data. In this situation, we will weigh up your right to privacy against our legitimate interests. If your right to privacy prevails over our legitimate interests, we will cease the relevant processing of your Personal data. You can exercise these rights by contacting privacy@eurelec-trading.eu.
​
(c) You have the right to ask us to limit the processing of your Personal data when you have contested the accuracy of the Personal data, for a sufficient period of time for us to check the accuracy of your Personal data; when our processing of your Personal data is unlawful but you object to your data being deleted and require us to limit our use of it instead; when we no longer require the Personal data for the original purpose, but it is still needed to contest, exercise or defend rights in a legal case; and when you have objected to the processing of your Personal data and while interests are being weighed up. You can exercise these rights by contacting privacy@eurelec-trading.eu.
(d) You have the right to request data portability for your Personal data, which means the right to receive the Personal data that you have supplied to us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, and to transfer this Personal data to another controller when the processing is based on your consent, or is necessary for the contract and automated processes are used in the processing. You can exercise these rights by contacting privacy@eurelec-trading.eu.
(e) If you are concerned about the way we have processed your Personal data or wish to make a complaint, we will do our best to address your issue. If you feel that we have not taken sufficient account of your complaint or concern, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection authority regarding our collection and use of your Personal data. For more information, please contact your local data protection authority. (Contact details for the data protection authorities in the EEA, Switzerland and certain other countries (including the United States of America and Canada) are available here.)
