Personal Data
Interacting with our website is meant to be an engaging and user-friendly experience and in order for you to take full advantage of the features and services offered we may require you to provide personal data to us.
There are several contact forms on this website all of which are used to put you in contact with a RMB SPAIN representative who will assist you with your inquiry. Some of these forms collect very basic data like your name, email and phone, however others collect more detailed personal data such as you address information.
My RMB SPAIN gives users the ability to create their own account on the RMB SPAIN website and take advantage of advanced features such as saving favorite listings or saving listing searches. Users can also connect to agents and interact with them in a safe and secure environment allowing agents to go to work and help find the property of your dreams or sell your current property.
Who has access to your information?
Regardless of which form you submit, you can rest assured your information will be sent to a RMB SPAIN representative and no-one else. Most of the time this individual is a RMB SPAIN associate who will follow up on your interest in a listing. However for inquiries such as career opportunities or franchise sales, your data will be sent to an office, regional or international representative of RMB SPAIN.
How do we protect your personal data?
In the RMB SPAIN circle, your data can only be accessed by designated RMB SPAIN representatives with a username and password. Outside of the RMB SPAIN circle, your personal data can only be accessed by staff of the company acting as the data processor, Leovinci Consulting S.L who is responsible for the development and maintenance of the website as well as storing your data.

Requesting access to your personal from the Access Your Personal Data page, you will receive your personal data in a secure email. This provides extra flexibility in regards to data portability, since you will be able to simply forward your data to another party or copy and paste it into a file type of your choosing.
Right to be Forgotten
GDPR also provides you the ability to have RMB SPAIN forget your personal data. Once this process is completed, all your personal data that can be used to directly or indirectly identify you will be made anonymous.
Example: Before: John Smith - After: NULL
To exercise your right to be forgotten, click the Forget Me button in the email generated when requesting access to your data on the Access Your Personal Data page.

This is useful in the case where you have established a business relationship with RMB SPAIN, in the form of a transaction or by taking advantage of any RMB SPAIN services. In such a case, RMB SPAIN reserves the right to hold your personal data for a duration of time set out by the local government.
In this case your right to be forgotten does not apply, however, you may wish to end communication from RMB SPAIN (marketing emails, new properties on the market etc). The stop communication button in the email will remove you from any mailing list or marketing campaign.
