6. Responsibility of NOORDZEE ELECTRONICS S.A. – Data processor

6.1. NOORDZEE ELECTRONICS S.A. undertakes to process Users’ personal data lawfully, fairly and transparently with respect to the User concerned. All data processing performed by NOORDZEE ELECTRONICS S.A. shall comply with the requirements of the Belgian law of 30 July 2018, Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and this Privacy Policy.

NOORDZEE ELECTRONICS S.A. implements all reasonable and appropriate methods to ensure the confidentiality, integrity and availability of the personal data it processes. These technical and organizational measures are set out in the Information Security Manual, which may be obtained by writing to one of the contact addresses provided in Section 7.5 below.

The technical measures include notably anonymization and encryption of personal data, depending on the required purpose.

Organizational measures mainly include the performance of internal audits, in addition to the audits that may be conducted on NOORDZEE ELECTRONICS S.A. by the Gaming Commission, for example.

If necessary and with the help of the Data Protection Officer, NOORDZEE ELECTRONICS S.A. shall carry out an impact analysis when the processing of data is liable to cause a heightened risk for Users.

6.2. Users’ personal data will not be transferred to third parties other than NOORDZEE ELECTRONICS S.A.’s providers and partners, except for the purposes set out in Sections 2.1, 2.2 and 3, i.e., if:

the transfer is made compulsory by a law, regulation or injunction issued by an administrative or judicial authority;
the transfer is required for the provision of the online gaming services or maintenance services;
the User gives their consent for such transfer.

The partner will not be considered as a data processor unless such partner processes Users’ personal data on behalf of NOORDZEE ELECTRONICS S.A.. NOORDZEE ELECTRONICS S.A. accepts no liability regarding the processing of User’s personal data by a partner providing its own services in its own name and on its own behalf, or if NOORDZEE ELECTRONICS S.A. can prove that it is in no way responsible for any damage caused.

Where NOORDZEE ELECTRONICS S.A. is acting as the partner’s data processor, it is agreed that NOORDZEE ELECTRONICS S.A. shall only be held liable for damage caused by the processing of personal data in breach of the Regulation or this Privacy Policy (i) if it has breached the obligations specifically incumbent on data processors pursuant to the Regulation, or (ii) if it has acted outside of or contrary to the partner’s lawful instructions. Similarly, NOORDZEE ELECTRONICS S.A.’s liability i) cannot be incurred in any way whatsoever if it can prove that it is in no way responsible for the event that caused the damage and ii) remains subject to the limitation of liability provisions of Article 11 of the Website Terms of Use.

6.3. NOORDZEE ELECTRONICS S.A. shall ensure that, when processing is carried out by a data processor on behalf of NOORDZEE ELECTRONICS S.A., said data processor shall provide sufficient guarantees as to the implementation of appropriate technical and organizational measures and, more generally, its compliance with the requirements of the Regulation. In particular, NOORDZEE ELECTRONICS S.A. shall require the data processor to comply with the Regulation and, consequently, to keep a register.

6.4. NOORDZEE ELECTRONICS S.A. undertakes to notify the data protection authority referred to in Section 7.4 below as soon as possible in the event of a security issue that could affect the confidentiality of the data processed.

NOORDZEE ELECTRONICS S.A. shall also inform the Users concerned, insofar as the violation of personal data presents a heightened risk for Users’ rights and freedoms. Such notification shall be sent by email or by post using the contact details provided by the User.
