Legal Disclaimer

This information is of a general nature only and is not necessarily comprehensive, complete, accurate or up to date.  It is sometimes linked to external sites over which the owner has no control and for which the owner assumes no responsibility.  It should not be considered professional or legal advice (if you need specific advice, you should always consult a suitably qualified professional). Any such “external links” to websites in domains other than cmd-languages.com may not be owned or funded by the owner and, therefore, the owner has no control over them and, thus, the owner assumes no responsibility for them.

It is the owner's goal to minimize disruption caused by technical errors. However some data or information on this site may have been created or structured in files or formats that are not error-free.  Therefore, the owner cannot guarantee that this service will not be interrupted or otherwise affected by such problems. The owner accepts no responsibility with regard to such problems incurred as a result of using this site or any linked external sites.

The purpose of any linked reference from this website to any specific external resource, online service or a website, is to enhance the information available on this website and help visitors to those websites.

Such linked references do not constitute endorsement by the owner of the specific external resource, online service or a website, nor endorsement of the information, contained in the linked reference, nor endorsement of the organizations owning the external websites.

This disclaimer is not intended to limit the liability of the owner in contravention of any requirements laid down in applicable national law nor to exclude the owner's liability for matters which may not be excluded under that law.

This policy on the protection of individuals with regard to the processing of personal data by the owner is based on General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR).  This policy covers all the owner's websites within the cmd-languages.com domain. Although you can browse through most of these websites without giving any personal information, in some cases information is required in order to provide the services you request.

Any such information is processed in full compliance with the regulation above.

This privacy policy describes the processing of information provided or collected on the sites and applications where this privacy policy is posted, whether for our digital services or on applications we make available on third-party sites or platforms. It also describes the processing of customer information provided to us or collected by us offline in our physical properties, such as in our language school. 

Please keep in mind that when you provide information to us on a third-party site or platform (for example, via our applications), the information you provide may be separately collected by the third-party site or platform. The information we collect is covered by this privacy policy, and the information the third-party site or platform collects is subject to the third-party site or platform’s privacy practices. Privacy choices you have made on the third-party site or platform will not apply to our use of the information we have collected directly through our applications. Please also keep in mind that our sites and applications may contain links to other sites not owned or controlled by us and we are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites. We encourage you to be aware when you leave our sites or applications and to read the privacy policies of other sites that may collect your personal data.

We collect two basic types of information – personal information and anonymous information – and we may use personal and anonymous information to create a third type of information, aggregate information. In particular, we collect:

• Registration information you provide when you create an account, enter a promotion, or link your profile on a third-party site or platform with your registration account, such as your first name and surname, country of residence, gender, date of birth, email address, username, and password;

• Still or video images captured by cameras or readers on or around our physical properties.

Your personal data is primarily used to provide you with the products and services you request. It may also be used to comply with legal obligations we are subject to or to fulfill our legitimate interests, such as to personalize your experience, develop and improve our services or to detect illegal activities. With your prior consent, it may also be used to send you offers and promotions.

We collect information through a variety of technologies, such as cookies whether or not you are logged in or registered. Please see our Cookies Policy to find out how to disable cookies and otherwise make choices with respect to such data collection.

We collect information using analytics tools, including when you visit our sites and applications or use our applications on third-party sites or platforms.

We acquire information from other trusted sources to update or supplement the information you provided or we collected automatically, such as when we validate postal address information using third party services. Applicable law may require that you authorize the third party to share your information with us before we can acquire it.

The above-named data controller for your information is responsible for and may use your information for the purposes described in this policy. Our employees and service providers may access your information where they perform services on behalf of the data controllers (as data processors) and, unless prohibited under applicable law, for use on their own behalf (as data controllers) for the purposes described in this policy. Consistent with applicable law and choices and controls that may be available to you, we may use information collected from you, or from devices associated with you, to:

• Provide you with the experiences, products, and services you request, view, engage with, or purchase;
• Communicate with you about your account or transactions with us and send you information or request feedback about features on our sites and applications or changes to our policies;
• Send you offers and promotions for our products and services or third-party products and services;
• Personalize content and experiences;
• Provide you with targeted advertising based on your activity on our sites and applications and on third-party sites and applications.
• Operate, understand, optimize, develop, or improve our sites, applications, products, services and operations, including by using guest survey research and analytics tools; and
• Detect, investigate and prevent activities that may violate our policies, pose safety issues, or be fraudulent or illegal.

• When you allow us to share your personal information with another company, by electing to share your personal information with carefully selected companies so that they can send you offers and promotions about their products and services;
• When you direct us to share your personal information with another company to fulfill your request, such as when you book travel packages with us that include goods or services provided by third-party partners, such as airlines, ground transportation providers, third-party hotels, and travel insurance providers; and when you direct us to share your personal information with third-party sites or platforms, such as social networking sites.

When companies perform services on our behalf, like package delivery, marketing and advertising, and customer service; however, these companies are prohibited from using your personal information for purposes other than those requested by us or required by law; and

When we share your personal information with third parties in connection with the sale of a business, to enforce our Terms of Use or rules, to ensure the safety and security of our visitors and third parties, to protect our rights and property and the rights and property of our visitors and third parties, to comply with legal process, or in other cases if we believe in good faith that disclosure is required by law.

We provide you the ability to exercise certain controls and choices regarding our collection, use and sharing of your information. In accordance with applicable law, your controls and choices may include requesting access to the personal information we hold about you and that we amend or delete it.  You have a number of rights including the right to request access to, change, or remove your personal data, or to change your marketing preferences (including withdrawing your consent at any time).

You may exercise your choices regarding our data collection by writing to us at Calle Sira Sampedro 2, 24010 Trobajo del Camino (León), Spain or sending us an email with DATA PRIVACY RIGHTS in the subject line to info@cmd-languages.com

You also have a right to lodge a complaint with your local Data Protection Supervisory Authority or with the Spanish Data Protection Agency (www.aepd.es).

Please be aware that if you do not allow us to collect personal information from you, we may not be able to deliver certain experiences, products, and services to you, and some of our services may not be able to take account of your interests and preferences. If collection of personal information is mandatory, we will make that clear at the point of collection so that you can make an informed decision whether to participate. If you have questions about the specific personal information about you that we process or retain, and your rights regarding that personal information, please contact.

We recognize the need to provide further privacy protections with respect to personal information we may collect from children on our sites and applications. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children without adult/legal guardian consent. When we intend to collect personal information from children, we take additional steps to protect children’s privacy, including:

• Notifying parents about our information practices with regard to children, including the types of personal information we may collect from children, the uses to which we may put that information, and whether and with whom we may share that information;
• In accordance with applicable law, and our practices, obtaining consent from parents for the collection of personal information from their children, or for sending information about our products and services directly to their children;
• Limiting our collection of personal information from children to no more than is reasonably necessary to participate in our language school services and activities; and
• Giving parents access or the ability to request access to personal information we have collected from their children and the ability to request that the personal information be changed or deleted.

We operate globally and may transfer your personal information to individual companies or third parties in locations around the world for the purposes described in this privacy policy. Wherever your personal information is transferred, stored or processed by us, we will take reasonable steps to safeguard the privacy of your personal information. These steps may include implementing standard contractual clauses where recognized by law, obtaining your consent, or other lawful means of transferring personal information.

From time to time, we may change this privacy policy to accommodate new technologies, industry practices, regulatory requirements or for other purposes. We will provide notice to you if these changes are material and, where required by applicable law, we will obtain your consent. Notice may be by email to you at the last email address you provided us, by posting notice of such changes on our sites and applications, or by other means, consistent with applicable law.

THIRD-PARTY TARGETED ADVERTISING

Third-party targeted advertising cookies may be placed on your device by third-party advertisers, ad networks, data exchanges, marketing analytics and other service providers.

Third-party targeted advertising cookies collect information about your browsing activity across multiple websites and online services in order to provide you with relevant advertisements on our websites and online services and the websites and online services of third parties. Ad networks may share this information with the advertisers using their network. These cookies may also be used to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns, for example by collecting data on how many people click on a particular advert. The information collected using these third-party advertising cookies does not identify you personally.

Third-party targeted advertising cookies are often linked to site functionality provided by the third-party which may mean that clicking on the advertisement redirects you to that third-party’s website.

Our targeted advertising cookies collect anonymous information; however, if you have a registration account with us, the information collected by us using our targeted advertising cookies may be associated with your registration account, for example, we may seek to show more closely targeted adverts to you based on your browsing behavior.
