I. PRELIMINARY PROVISIONS

The EuRIS services comprise the provision of information to Vessel Operators (e.g. Skippers and Fleet Managers) and Logistics Users regarding transport on European inland waterways to enhance the safety and efficiency of inland navigation, in particular through the provision of Corridor River Information Services and as further specified in these General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter referred to as the “Services”). The Use of the EuRIS Service (hereinafter referred to as “Service”) and the means through which the Service can be accessed and used (e.g. by means of Internet at https://eurisportal.eu) is subject to the present General Terms and Conditions of use presented below. These Terms and Conditions contain important provisions on the purpose of the Services, restrictions on the use, the liability, the duration and termination of the Services. By making use of the Service, you can, as a user, request and/or view both real-time, dynamic information (position of vessels, actual traffic situation, water levels, cargo data, etc.) and static information on the waterways (operating times, permitted dimensions of structures, storage facilities, average waiting times at locks, etc.).

PROTECTION OF PERSONAL DATA – PRIVACY POLICY

The EuRIS services comprise the provision of information to Vessel Operators (e.g. Skippers and Fleet Managers) and Logistics Users regarding transport on European inland waterways and optional additional services (“Services”). This Privacy Policy applies to the provision of the Services and the means through which the Services can be accessed and used (e.g. the Website https://eurisportal.eu).

We attach great importance to the protection of privacy and personal data when providing the Services. We will therefore only process your personal data in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, and repealing Directive 95/46/EC (hereinafter the “GDPR”), and other relevant applicable data protection legislation.

‘Personal data’ means any information about a living, identifiable person.

‘Processing’ covers all activities relating to the use of personal data for example its collection, recording, organisation, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, use, disclosure, erasure or destruction.

Our aim in adopting this Privacy Policy is, amongst other things, to inform you in a simple transparent and clear manner about the personal data we process, why and how we process them, and to inform you about your rights.

Where necessary, we will ask you as a data subject for informed, free, unambiguous and specific consent to perform certain processing operations.
This Privacy Policy may be subject to amendments and modifications in the future. This will be made clear in the Privacy Policy. It is therefore your responsibility to consult this document on a regular basis. Any substantial change will always be clearly communicated.

1. WHO PROCESSES THE PERSONAL DATA

In the context of this Privacy Policy, the organisations you can find at https://eurisportal.eu/partners are to be considered as the organisations responsible for processing, in GDPR-terms: ‘joint controllers’. De Vlaamse Waterweg (hereafter also referred to as “we”, “us” or “our”) has a special role, being not only one of the joint controllers but also your contract partner, the ´processor´, and taking on many tasks within the provision of the Services. If you want to learn more about the respective roles and relationships of the joint controllers vis-à-vis you, please contact us.

The joint controllers determine the purposes and means for the processing of personal data for the provision of the Services.

An organisation is ‘controller’ when it makes decisions about how and why the personal data are processed.

An organisation is ‘processor‘: when it processes personal data on behalf of a controller.

You can always reach us by using the contact details stipulated in the section ‘Contact point for questions related to data protection´ below (see GDPR Art. 26).

Contact point for questions related to data protection

Each Joint Controller shall have a designated contact point for questions related to data protection. You can always contact your national Data Protection Officer for questions, remarks or requests relating to the processing of personal data.

We may process personal data through the involvement of third-party service providers who receive clear instructions to this end and may only process your personal data in accordance with our instructions and after ensuring an adequate level of security.

2. WHAT PERSONAL DATA ARE PROCESSED, WHY AND ON WHAT LEGAL BASIS?

When processing personal data, we undertake to comply with the general statutory principles regarding the processing of such data. In particular in application of the principle of minimal data processing, we will therefore only process those data that are strictly necessary for the purposes as defined in this Privacy Policy.

We process personal data in order to provide you harmonised information services to support traffic and transport management for inland navigation, including technical interfaces to other modes of transport (hereinafter “RIS”), in the context of the performance of its task of general interest and the enhancement of safety and efficiency of inland navigation.

To this end, we will process the following personal data, provided that this data is collected by us or by other joint controllers in the fulfilment of their task of public interest and the enhancement of safety and efficiency of inland navigation. These are required in order to provide the aforementioned information services.

  • Inland Automatic Identification Systems (Inland AIS Transponders) data such as the vessel position and its identification
  • Data on the hull of the vessel such as its identifications, dimensions, etc.
  • Cargo and voyage data such as the details of the transported cargo, the transport route cargo sender and receiver,
  • User Profile Data such as the first and last name, email address

The processing of the personal data of the data subjects (passengers, crew, etc.) is based on (i) our legitimate interest and the legitimate interest of the user according to Article 6(1)(f) GDPR that lies in the provision and the use of the Services under the contract that is concluded between you and De Vlaamse Waterweg on behalf of the joint controllers or (ii) to the extent the data subject is asked to give consent, the consent of the data subject.

3. TO WHOM ARE YOUR PERSONAL DATA SENT (DATA RECIPIENTS)?

Depending on the nature and scope of the chosen service, it may be necessary for us to pass the personal data to third parties, in particular third-party service providers, in order to be able to provide the service requested by you in full.

If we transfer your personal data outside the European Economic Area, we will provide for a legal basis for such data transfer, especially by means of the conclusion of the Standard Contractual Clauses issued by the European Commission.

Possible recipients are in any case:

  • RIS authorities/providers
  • Court/police – only if a valid decision is provided

4. RETENTION PERIOD FOR PERSONAL DATA

All personal data are stored only for the period necessary to achieve the objectives described above.

  • Personal data processed within the scope of the RIS: 30 calendar days
  • Personal data (including user profile) processed within the scope of the additional services: until you request the deletion of the data

5. COOKIES

During the use of the Service of https://eurisportal.eu, so-called “cookies” can be placed on your device. By using the Service you will always be asked to give your explicit consent for the use of non-essential cookies and the placing of such cookies on your device via a check box that pops up by opening the Service.

Cookies are small text files stored in your browser. They are downloaded by your browser the first time you visit the Service. The next time this Service is visited using the same terminal or browser, the cookie and the information stored in it will be sent either to the respective website which set it (first party cookie) or to another website to which it belongs (third party cookie). In this way, the cookie recognises that the website was requested using the respective browser and this changes the way in which content is displayed. For instance, cookies "remember" your preferences, how you use a site, and to some degree they adapt the offers shown to the individual.

Functionally necessary cookies

We use the following cookies for the purpose of transmitting messages and providing the services requested by you. The data processing activities undertaken by employing the use of cookies are based on our legitimate interests in providing a fully functioning website and the services requested by you (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR).

6. YOUR RIGHTS IN RESPECT OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA

Right to access (Art 15 GDPR) – right to rectification (Art 16 GDPR) – right to erasure (Art 17 GDPR)

Any data subject who provides sufficient proof of their identity has the right to obtain an answer from us as to whether or not personal data concerning them will be processed and, if so, to have access to such personal data.

You have the right to obtain information about the processing purposes, the categories of personal data that are processed, the recipients of the personal data, the (criteria for determining the) period (during which) your personal data will be stored and the rights you may exercise in accordance with the GDPR.

Personal data that are incomplete or inaccurate can be corrected.

As a user, you also have the right to have your personal data deleted by us. You can only invoke this right in certain cases, which we will assess, for example:

  • if your personal data are no longer needed for the purposes for which they were collected or processed;
  • if you withdraw your consent and there is no other legal basis for the processing;
  • if an objection is made to the processing and there are no compelling, justifiable grounds for the processing;
  • if the personal data have been processed unlawfully;
  • if your data have to be deleted in accordance with a statutory obligation.

Even if the cases above apply, we may not be obliged to delete the data under GPDR.

Right to restriction of processing (Art 18 GDPR) / right to objection (Art 21 GDPR)

As a user you have the right to obtain a restriction on the processing from us if one of the following cases applies:

  • you dispute the correctness of the personal data;
  • the processing appears to be unlawful and you do not wish to have your personal data deleted;
  • we no longer need your personal data for processing purposes, but you still need them for the initiation, exercise or substantiation of a legal claim.
  • we must assess the existence of grounds for the deletion of the personal data and do so during this period.

Moreover, in certain cases, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data for reasons related to your specific situation. Thereafter, we will cease processing your personal data, unless we can provide compelling, justifiable grounds for processing your personal data that outweigh your right to object.

You also have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing if legal consequences attach to this or if such a decision may substantially affect you. In relation to the provision of the Services, no automated individual decision-making (including profiling) takes place.

Finally, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data for direct marketing purposes, if applicable.

Right to data portability (Art 20 GDPR)

You have the right to obtain the personal data you provided to us in a structured, common and machine-readable format if the processing takes place on the basis of your consent or on the basis of the performance of a contract between you and us. In addition, you are entitled to ask us to transfer this personal data to another controller.

Right to withdraw your consent (Art 7 (3) GDPR) / right to file a complaint with a supervisory Authority

You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. The withdrawal of consent shall not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
You have the right to file a complaint with the authorised supervisory authorities regarding the processing of your data by us.

Exercise your rights

If you wish to exercise your rights listed above, we will usually comply with this request within one (1) month of receiving it. The request shall be made by registered letter to your national contact point (address as stated above) or by email to: privacy@vlaamsewaterweg.be .

When you exercise of your rights, we will always act in accordance with the GDPR and thus provide all the information required in the GDPR in a concise, transparent, comprehensible and easily accessible form, which you will receive in simple language.

The deadlines for responding to your requests may be extended in exceptional circumstances, including the complexity/multiplicity of your requests. To this end, we will inform you of this extension and of the reasons for it within one (1) month of receiving your request.

In the context of exercising your rights and/or contacting the relevant data protection authority (see https://eurisportal.eu/about-edpb/board/members_en), we may ask you to prove your identity beforehand.

General Terms and Conditions of EuRIS

Privacy Policy

In order to offer the services of EuRIS, personal data are processed. Therefore, also a privacy policy is provided ,a legal statement that specifies how the data are processed and for what purposes.

By selecting the checkbox provided, you confirm that you have taken note of the General Terms and Conditions of Use and accept these without reservation.
In the text that follows

In the context of THESE GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS, the organisations you can find at https://eurisportal.eu/partners jointly define the purposes and means of the Processing Activities, in GPPR-terms: ‘joint controllers’. Information about data processing in connection with the Services in accordance with Articles 13f GDPR and about the Joint Controllership is available in the Privacy Policy on the website of EuRIS. ”We” (respectively “us” and “our”) refers to the waterway management company De Vlaamse Waterweg nv, with the following company data: De Vlaamse Waterweg, a public limited liability corporation under public law, with registered office at Havenstraat 44, 3500 Hasselt and company registration number 0216.173.309. We are acting on behalf of the joint controllers and provide the Services and are your contract partner.

Amendments

We may amend the provisions of these General Terms and Conditions of Use at any time, such as following changes to its services or to current legislation. The adjusted terms and conditions will apply as from the date of their publication. In the event of major changes, we will inform you personally by email and ask for your consent if needed.

II. PURPOSE OF THE SERVICE

The Service regarding transport on European inland waterways is aimed at the promotion of efficient and safe shipping via the provision of available information such as information on the waterway and on the actual traffic on inland waterways. It collects data from most other national authorities in Europe and provides services at a European level through one Service (e.g. providing the position of vessels on most European inland waterways – irrespective of the country, the vessel is sailing).
The personal data provided is limited to the information relevant to the user profile and the choice approved by the user.
Furthermore, the nature and scope of the provided information shall depend on the manner in which it is consulted (whether or not via a mobile application). If possible and where the relevant basic data are available, a route and itinerary planner will also be provided.

III. DISCLAIMER / LIABILITY / INDEMNIFICATION

We will – to the best of our ability – make all reasonable efforts to ensure that the provided functionality of the Services works as expected and that the provided or displayed information is correct at the time of inclusion for publication, which does not prevent the Service from still containing incomplete, inaccurate or outdated information or mistakes occurring regarding the display of these data or the operation of the provided functionality, also due to the fact that some or all information originates from third parties such as authorities from other European countries. We reserve the right to supplement, modify, correct or remove the provided information or functionality at any time without prior notice. We thus give no guarantees with regard to the accuracy of the information provided.
You often provide the personal data yourself directly to us and can thus exercise a certain level of control over its accuracy and minimisation. In any case, if certain information is incorrect or incomplete, neither we nor the authorities from other European countries bear any liability for possible adverse consequences, also if parts or the entirety of the Services become unavailable as a result.

It is particularly important that you comply with data security regulations, in particular by not giving third parties access to your registration address. You are solely responsible for every visit to and use of the Service through your “account”.

We only bundle information and factual situations supplied and created by third parties such as authorities from other European countries. The Services are not created and compiled for the individual requirements and needs of a particular user. Neither we nor the authorities from other European countries undertake any guarantee and/or liability for the correctness, actuality, freedom from errors or completeness of the Services (e.g. of provided information) as well as for a certain usability of the same or for the availability of the Services. The users of the Service acknowledge this and use the information made available to them at their own risk.

The liability of us as well as of the authorities from other European countries shall in any case be limited to

  • intent and severe cases of gross negligence; and
  • direct damage as a result of proven and attributable errors in the way in which We compile information and makes it visible.

Further, the liability of us as well as of the authorities from other European countries shall in any case be excluded for

  • damage in the form of lost profit, financial or commercial losses, lost production, increased general expenses, increased administrative costs, lost cargo, lost time, lost or damaged data, lost contracts, immaterial damage and lost clientele; and
  • damage resulting from the disclosure of information or data to authorities.

Regardless of the nature of the damage and its legal basis, the liability of us as well as of the authorities from other European countries shall in any case be limited to the amount that the user paid during the last 12 months for the EuRIS services, subject to a minimum of EUR 100 per claim.

We may close your user account and deny or partially suspend your right to use the Services in the event of non-compliance with these General Terms and Conditions of Use or any special conditions linked to a specific service. You agree to fully indemnify and hold us and our sub-processors as well as the RIS authorities/providers harmless against any claims from third parties, including but not limited to reasonable (extra)judicial and administrative costs arising from or in connection with the violation of these General Terms and Conditions of Use.

The provisions of this clause apply mutatis mutandis to third party service providers (such as (sub-)processors) and third parties who provide information for the Services, such as authorities from other European countries, as well as to their employees and representatives and the employees and representatives of us.

We as well as the authorities from other European countries shall use their best efforts to ensure the integrity of the data provided and shall take all reasonable technical and organisational measures to prevent the loss, theft, unauthorised alteration or destruction of data. The user acknowledges that when situations of force majeure are the reason for a breach relating to personal data, such as a data leak, this cannot be regarded as a shortcoming on the part of us to take the necessary, appropriate data security measures. You often provide the personal data yourself directly to us and can thus exercise a certain level of control over its accuracy and minimisation. In any case, if certain information is incorrect or incomplete, neither we nor the authorities from other European countries bear any liability for possible adverse consequences, even if parts or the whole of the Service become unavailable as a result. However, it is particularly important that you comply with the data security regulations, in particular by not giving third parties access to your ”account”. You are solely responsible for every visit to and use of the Service through your “account”.

We as well as the authorities from other European countries will not accept any liability if it is in no way responsible for the event causing the loss or damage.

You further agree that you will immediately notify the contact point for questions related to data protection (see our Privacy Policy hereinunder VIII ) of any unauthorised use of your user name, password or other account information, or of any other breach of security with which you are faced and which relates to the Service.
The user is responsible for the vessels that are attributed to him, respectively his account (“claimed vessels”). If the user sells, lets or leases to someone else or otherwise loses or abandons control of a vessel, the user is obliged to delete the vessel from his account.
We may close your user account and deny or partially suspend your right to use the Service in the event of non-compliance with these General Terms and Conditions of Use or any special conditions linked to a specific service.
