1.0 Privacy Policy

We are committed to protecting our visitors’ privacy and we will not collect any personal information about you as a visitor unless you provide, and consent to it voluntarily. Any personal information you communicate to us is kept in accordance with the Data Protection Act 2001 together with successive legislation incorporating the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

2.0 The Data Protection Act 2001 and GDPR 2018

The Data Protection Act 2001 was enacted on the 14 December 2001 and came fully into force on the 15 July 2003. The Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and the Council 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 General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) was incorporated into Maltese Legislation on the 25 May 2018, which meant that all of its provisions were of direct effect to all EU Member States including Malta. The GDPR states that clients’ personal data can be processed only when there is a lawful reason to do so or if a specific and informed consent is given to the Mediterranean Conference Centre. We therefore have a legal duty to respect and protect any personal information we collect from you and we will abide by such duty. We take all safeguards necessary to prevent unauthorised access and we do not pass on your details collected from you as a visitor, to any third party or Government Department unless you give us your consent to do so.
