Disclosure:

No data obtained by Parisi Consulting is shared with third parties unless we have requested and been granted consent by the data subject (that’s you!).

 

International transfer:

Parisi Consulting uses two services with servers outside the European Union, Dropbox and We Transfer. These services are GDPR compliant and your data is fully protected and subject to the same regulation as if it were held within the European Union.

 

Data Security:

Parisi protects data with:

Your legal rights (the user): access, correction, erasure, object to processing, restriction of processing, transfer to a different processor and withdrawal of consent.

If you wish to exercise any of these rights, please contact team@helloparisi.com.

You do not have to pay a fee to exercise these rights but we may charge a fee if we judge your request to be unfounded, repetitive or excessive. We may also refuse to comply in these circumstances. We will respond to all reasonable requests within 28 days.
