AIM OF THE DATA PROTECTION POLICY
Altway Systems is fully committed to complying with applicable data protection laws, as we believe that ensuring data protection is the foundation of trustworthy business relationships.
We constantly work to maintain compliance — encouraging audits, certifications, and providing industry-standard contractual protections.
This Data Protection Policy ensures the level of data protection prescribed by the European Union Data Protection Regulations and provides one of the necessary framework conditions for cross-border data transmission.
This Data Protection Policy applies to all companies of Altway Systems, its affiliated companies and their employees, and is based on globally accepted principles of data protection.
The latest version of the Data Protection Policy is available with our privacy information on Altway’s website at: altway.systems

(c) adequate, relevant and limited to what is necessary for the purposes (‘data minimisation’);
(d) accurate and, where necessary, kept up to date (‘accuracy’);
(e) kept in a form that permits identification of data subjects for no longer than necessary (‘storage limitation’);
(f) processed securely to protect against unauthorised or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction, or damage (‘integrity and confidentiality’).
