Scope of application

This Policy shall apply:

  • To those who visit CATOR’s website, www.cator-sa.com (hereinafter, any reference to it shall also include the Catalan, English and Spanish versions).
  • To those who voluntarily communicate with CATOR via e-mail or who fill out any of the data collection forms published on CATOR’s website.
  • To those who request information about CATOR’s products and services or who request to participate in any of CATOR’s commercial actions.
  • To those who formalize a contractual relationship with CATOR by contracting its products and services.
  • To those who use any other service present on the website that involves the communication of data to CATOR or access to data by CATOR for the provision of its services.
  • To any others who, directly or indirectly, have given their express consent for their data to be processed by CATOR for any of the purposes set out in this Policy.

The use of CATOR products and services requires the express acceptance of this Policy.

CATOR warns that, except for the existence of a legally constituted representation, no user and/or customer may use the identity of another person and communicate their personal data, so the data provided to CATOR must be personal data, corresponding to their own identity, adequate, relevant, current, accurate and true. In this sense, the user and/or customer shall be solely liable for any direct or indirect damage caused to third parties or CATOR by the use of data of another person or their own data when they are false, erroneous, not current, inadequate or irrelevant. Likewise, the user and/or customer who communicates the personal data of a third party shall be responsible for having obtained the corresponding authorization from the interested party, as well as for the consequences if this is not the case.

Likewise, the user and/or customer who communicates personal data to CATOR declares to be of legal age, in accordance with the provisions of Spanish law, refraining otherwise from providing data to CATOR. Any data provided about a minor will require the consent or prior authorization of their parents, guardians or legal representatives, who will be considered responsible for the data provided by the minors in their care.

This Policy will be of subsidiary application with respect to those other conditions on personal data protection that are established with special character and are communicated, without limitation, through the registration forms, contracts and/or conditions of the particular services, being therefore this Policy complementary to those mentioned in what is not expressly foreseen in the same.

Purposes of the collection and processing of personal data

CATOR, in its capacity as data controller, informs users of the existence of several treatments and files in which personal data communicated to CATOR are collected and stored.
