Sidenpol and Intervention Parties

• Rights of citizens

  • Article 18.4 of the Spanish Constitution recognizes the fundamental right to the protection of personal data.

    The Operational Deputy Directorate, through the Strategic Planning and Coordination Unit, is responsible for the treatment “Intervention Parties: documented and computerized police actions” (hereinafter, “INTERVENTION PARTIES”) and “SIDENPOL Police Complaints System” (hereinafter, “SIDENPOL”), so it has developed a procedure to articulate the exercise of the rights that the legislation recognizes to citizens.

    These processing activities are carried out either for the fulfillment of legal obligations, or for the fulfillment of missions in the public interest, or after having obtained the consent of the owner of the data through a clear affirmative action.

    The personal data included in these treatments will be used confidentially, solely and exclusively, in accordance with the purposes stated and published in the Inventory of Treatment Activities of the Ministry of the Interior.

    Only and pursuant to regulatory obligations, as stated in the Register of Processing Activities, the personal data collected may be transferred to third parties.

    If the application does not meet the specified requirements, the person concerned shall be requested to make the necessary correction for the continuation of the procedure.

• Acting through representative

  • The interested citizen may exercise the rights recognized by his representative, according to the following provisions:
    • Legal representative, when the affected person is in a situation of incapacity or minority of age that prevents the personal exercise of these rights, in which case the accreditation of such condition will be necessary.
    • Voluntary representative, expressly designated for the exercise of the right. In this case, the identity of the representative and the representation conferred by him must be clearly established.

• Correction of formal defects

  • In cases where there is a formal defect in the application or the absence of any necessary requirement, the National Police will communicate this circumstance to the person concerned, granting a period of ten working days for its correction. To do this, a form to that effect is available.

    Until the formal defect notified is corrected, the period of resolution and notification to the interested party will be suspended in accordance with the provisions of article 22.1 a) of Law 39/2015, of 1 October, on the Common Administrative Procedure of Public Administrations. If you do not proceed with the correction within the indicated period, you will be deemed to have withdrawn from your request.

• Retention of data

  • The data incorporated into the indicated treatments will be kept for the time necessary to fulfill the purpose for which they are collected, always taking into account the deadlines established by the applicable data protection regulations.

    In this regard, Organic Law 7/2021, of 26 May, on the protection of personal data processed for the purposes of prevention, detection, investigation and prosecution of criminal offences and the execution of criminal sanctions, establishes that in general, the maximum period for the deletion of the data will be twenty years, unless there are factors such as the existence of open investigations or crimes that have not been prescribed, the non-completion of the execution of the penalty, recidivism, need for protection of the victims or other motivated circumstances. This, without prejudice to the review of the need to preserve, limit or delete all the personal data contained in each of the processing activities under its responsibility, at most every three years that corresponds to the person responsible for the treatment.

• Rights in the field of data protection

  • The rights that are listed below and that are recognized to citizens, are regulated by Organic Law 7/2021, of May 26, on the protection of personal data processed for the purposes of prevention, detection, investigation and prosecution of criminal offences and execution of criminal sanctions and, in addition, by Organic Law 3/2018, of December 5, on the protection of personal data and guarantee of digital rights.

    These rights are of a very personal nature (can be exercised directly or through a legal or voluntary representative) and independent (the exercise of one of these rights is not a requirement for the exercise of another).

    The right to obtain information about the processing of your personal data can be exercised through consultation with the Registry of Processing Activities.

    To exercise the rights of access, rectification and deletion of your data, the National Police puts at your disposal a form that must be completed and processed through the standardized channels. However, in accordance with Article 23.3 of Organic Law 7/2021, of May 26, the person responsible for the treatment instead of proceeding to the deletion of data, may limit the processing of personal data.

    Without prejudice to the above and in accordance with Article 20.5 of Organic Law 7/2021, of May 26, “when the requests of an interested party are manifestly unfounded or excessive, in particular due to their repetitive nature, the person responsible for the treatment may inadmit them to processing”.
