The following terms from data protection law, which we have defined for your convenience, form the basis of this information about data protection.

  • The recipient of personal data is any person or entity—including governmental bodies, law enforcement agencies, and other entities—to whom it is disclosed, regardless of whether they are considered third parties. When public authorities obtain personal information through an investigation required by Union or Member State law, they will not be considered recipients of that information; instead, their processing of that data will adhere to applicable data protection laws in light of the purposes of the processing. Banks and payment processors, shipping and logistics companies, and IT service providers are a few examples of potential beneficiaries (for more details, see Section 4).
  • Any information pertaining to a naturally occurring, identifiable person is considered personal data (also known as a “data subject”). Any natural person who can be directly or indirectly identified is considered identifiable. Individuals who can be identified by an identifier (name, ID number, location data, or online identity) or by one or more traits specific to their physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural, or social identity fall under this category. Personal information includes things like names, phone numbers, credit card numbers, and bank account information.
  • Any person or organization that determines the purposes and methods of processing personal data, whether acting alone or in concert with other organizations, agencies, public authorities, and natural or legal persons, is referred to as the controller. The standards for selecting or designating a controller may also be specified by statutory criteria if the means and purposes of the processing are dictated by Union or Member State law. Oakville Naturopathic Doctor is the controller for the data processing operations covered, per Section 1.2 of this data protection information.
  • Whether or not an action is carried out automatically, it is still considered processing if it involves a personal data set or personal data. Some examples of these activities include gathering, documenting, arranging, storing, modifying or transforming, retrieving, consulting, using, disclosing through transmission, distributing, or providing in any other way, aligning or combining, limiting, erasing, or destroying.
