With this document, Vetrya wants its Customers to know the way in which their data and Personal Data / information relating to the use of the Eclexia platform (hereafter only the Platform) are collected, used, shared and stored by the end users (hereafter referred to as Spectators) who view the videos of the Customer through the Platform.

Roles and Responsibilities of the Data Processor and the Data Controller

The Customer and Vetrya accept that the Customer is the Data Controller and that Vetrya is the Data Processor, except for the cases in which (a) the Customer acts as Data Processor, in that case, Vetrya will be another Data Processor.

Regarding the use of the Platform, the Customer who uses it for the management of multimedia content within its websites or apps, therefore, configures itself, except in the case (a), as Data Controller, while Vetrya as Data Processor.

Vetrya does not have a direct relationship with the Spectators. The Spectators information / data collected on the websites or on the Customers' applications are subjected to the Customer's privacy policies.

Data security

Provided that no data transmission over the Internet or data storage system can be guaranteed 100% in terms of security, Vetrya implements and ensures appropriate organizational and technical measures to protect Customer Data and Personal Data on the Platform. These measures comply with the requirements established by the ISO 27001 standards. The Eclexia platform is ISO / IEC 27001: 2013 certified - Certification for the management, development and maintenance of the VOD service.

Personal data processed with the Platform

Vetrya, in addition to the processing of customer data necessary for the access to the platform (e.g. surname, name, userid, psw) and all data voluntarily entered by the same through the inclusion / publication of multimedia content (such as video, img, audio, live streaming, etc.) for which the same Customer assumes that they refer to himself or to third parties from whom he has received express authorization to confer them on the basis of an appropriate legal basis that legitimizes the treatment in question, processes the following personal data:

1. Data relating to the Spectators

Personal Data collected by Vetrya in relation to the supply of the Eclexia platform include Spectators data.

The information that can be collected when videos are viewed through Eclexia include:

1.1 Navigation data

Computer systems and software procedures used for the functioning of Eclexia acquire, during the normal operation, some personal data that are transmitted implicitly in the use of internet communications protocols.

This information is not collected to be associated with identified interested parties, but due to its nature could, through processing with data held by third parties, allow the identification of users / visitors (e.g. IP address, the code indicating the status of data response from the server, browser type, etc.). The platform also collects data related to the views (e.g.: number of views, minutes displayed, percentage of content displayed, new viewers, unique viewers, geographical origin, language preference, search terms and other similar information used only at the statistical level (so they are anonymous), to check the correct functioning of the Eclexia platform and to return anonymous reports to the Customer through Microsoft Power BI.

This information is aggregated and anonymized, it is not connected to a single Spectator.

2. Cookies and other tracking technologies

Vetrya and its third-party service providers may use technologies such as cookies to quantify usage, analyze the display and duration of videos viewed using the Eclexia platform, in order to conduct benchmarking, generate metrics, reporting and evaluate the quality of services offered through the Platform.

Cookies - A cookie is a small text file stored on the user's computer for archiving purposes.
