Privacy policy
General
Regulation 2016/679 on the protection of individuals with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data (General Data Protection Regulation, in this document – GDPR, Regulation or GDPR) was adopted by the European Parliament and the Council of the European Union on 27 April 2016 and its provisions are directly applicable as of 25 May 2018. This Regulation expressly repeals Directive 95/46/EC, thus also replacing the provisions of Law 677/2001 (now repealed).
The Regulation is directly applicable in all Member States, protecting the rights of all natural persons in the European Union. From a substantive point of view, the Regulation applies to all controllers processing personal data. The Regulation does not apply to the processing of personal data relating to legal persons, and in particular to undertakings having legal personality, including the name and type of legal person and the contact details of the legal person.
Personal data are defined as any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (“data subject”); an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier, such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier, or to one or more factors specific to his or her physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity.
Processing of personal data means any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automatic means, such as collection, recording, organization, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction.
Identity of the operator

According to the GDPR, if a breach of personal data security is likely to result in a high risk to your rights and freedoms, the operator of this website will inform you, without undue delay, of this breach, unless the additional provisions of the same Regulation become applicable (Article 34(3)).
Data Protection Officer
As the provisions of the GDPR are not applicable (art. 37 para. 1 – according to which the Controller and the Processor shall appoint a Data Protection Officer whenever:
1. the processing is carried out by a public authority or body, with the exception of courts acting in their judicial capacity;

Appropriate technical and organizational measures
Having regard to the state of the art, the context and purposes of the processing, and the risks to the rights and freedoms of natural persons, the controller shall implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure that, by default, only personal data necessary for each specific purpose of the processing are processed.

Social Media – plug-ins on https://www.jazzinthepark.ro/
Facebook Plug-ins (Like & Share Button)
This website uses social plugins (“plugins”) managed by the social network facebook.com. Plugins can be identified by a Facebook logo (a white “f” on a blue plate or a “thumbs up” sign) or are labeled by adding the phrase “Facebook Social Plugin”. The list and layout of Facebook plugins can be seen here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/. As long as you use the Like extension, you will appreciate
the Facebook page of our website without having to leave it. To the extent that you use the Share extension, you will share our site or certain content within it on your personal Facebook page without having to leave the site.
Through the plugin, Facebook receives the information that you access on our site. If you are logged in and on Facebook at the same time, Facebook can attribute the actions performed on the page to your account and, by default, to you personally. When you interact with the plugins, for example by clicking on the Like button or by sharing certain content on the site, the corresponding information is transferred directly from your browser to Facebook and stored there. Even if you are not a Facebook member, there is still a possibility that the social network obtains and stores your IP address.
By clicking on one of these buttons, you agree to the use of this plugin and therefore to the transfer of personal data to Facebook. We have no control over the nature and purpose of this transmitted data and its further processing.
If you do not want Facebook to associate your visit to this site with your Facebook account information, you have the option of not logging in.
In view of the judgment of 16 July 2020 (Case C-311/18 – Data Protection Commissioner v Facebook Ireland Limited, Maximillian Schrems), the European Court of Justice has ruled that the protection offered by the EU-US Privacy Shield is not adequate.
The transmission of personal data to the US and other countries outside the European Economic Area (EEA) is therefore based on the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC). The Commission has issued two sets of Standard Contractual Clauses for data transfers from EU data controllers to data controllers established outside the EU or the European Economic Area (EEA). It has also issued a set of contractual clauses for data transfers from EU data controllers to processors established outside the EU or the EEA. For more information on these clauses, we recommend that you visit https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection/international-dimension-data-protection/standard-contractual-clauses-scc_ro.
Facebook uses Standard Contractual Clauses as adequate data protection safeguards in line with the level of protection guaranteed by the GDPR.

By clicking on one of these buttons, you agree to the use of this plugin and therefore to the transfer of personal data to Instagram. We have no control over the nature and purpose of this transmitted data and its further processing. Regarding the purpose and extent of data collection, further processing and use of data by Instagram, as well as permissions and settings to protect user privacy, you can refer to Instagram’s privacy policies at: https://help.instagram.com/5195221 25107875.
