Enerfip, in the context of its activity as a European provider of crowdfunding services, processes the personal data of its clients, investors who are natural persons and directors or beneficial owners of Project Holders
As part of the entry into force on 25 May 2018 of Regulation EU 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 (the "General Data Protection Regulation"), Enerfip ("the ECSP") wished to clarify its internal personal data processing policy. The terms used in the procedure have the meaning given to them by the General Data Protection Regulation, and in the Service Provision Agreement signed with investors. Taking into account the nature, scope, context and purposes of the processing carried out by Enerfip and the risks to the rights and freedoms of natural persons, Enerfip implements appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure and be able to demonstrate that the processing is carried out in accordance with this Regulation. These measures shall be reviewed and updated as necessary.

In accordance with regulations concerning the fight against money laundering and the financing of terrorism, Enerfip collects identification information from Approved Investors.
