Objective of the confidentiality policy

This Privacy Policy aims to inform our users about how we collect, use and protect their personal information.

To guarantee this protection, Atmosphäre makes sure to seek an individual's consent before collecting, processing and disclosing information that could identify him or her.

The purposes and methods by which Atmosphäre, or anyone acting on its behalf, will manage their personal data are explained in this Policy. It is written in simple terms to ensure full understanding and informed consent on the part of users.

Methods of obtaining consent

We make sure to obtain consent before collecting personal information from anyone. This consent may be explicit or implicit, and may be given either by the individual himself or by an authorized representative.

We ask for explicit consent, whether orally, electronically or in writing. However, implied consent can be inferred from actions or non-actions of an individual. For example, providing a name and telephone number to obtain a response is perceived as implicit consent to the collection of this information. When determining the type of consent required, we assess the nature of the personal information, the purpose of its collection and the expectations of a person in a similar situation.

If we intend to use personal information for another purpose, we will specify this new finality and consent will be sought again.
