EUROMIL Data Privacy Policy

The European Organisation of Military Associations (EUROMIL) takes your privacy seriously and manages your data in accordance with the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

How does EUROMIL collect personal data?

EUROMIL only collects personal data that you give us yourself or that third parties give us in the context of a service requested by them (for example a registration form). This may include your first name, last name, organisation, position in the organisation, email, phone number, address, ID, passport or bank account numbers.

What personal data does EUROMIL process?

EUROMIL only collects the personal data needed to carry out a service requested by you (or by a third party).

When and why does EUROMIL process personal data?

EUROMIL only processes these data in certain situations:

if you have explicitly given your permission for this;

or, if it is necessary to process the data in order to provide a service you have requested (e.g. if you have access to the internal part of the website, if you subscribe to receive the e-newsletter, if you register for an event or if you request information to become a member);

or, if we are legally obliged to process the data (e.g. funding projects);

or, if it is necessary in the public interest or for a legitimate purpose (e.g. payments);

How does EUROMIL treat personal data?

Sensitive personal data (bank account numbers, ID or passports numbers) are always treated as confidential and never made public.

Your data are only used for the service you have requested – for example, if you subscribe for one or more newsletters, we will only use your details to send you these newsletters. Every newsletter also gives you the opportunity to unsubscribe.

The organisation never passes on your contact details to third parties for commercial purposes.
