In accordance with the Regulation (EU) 2018/1725 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data by the Union institutions, bodies, offices and agencies, and on the free movement of such data (Regulation), the AANChOR web portal collects your personal information only to the extent necessary to fulfil a precise purpose related to our tasks. This document describes the privacy policy that applies to all data gathered and processed through the AANChOR web portal.
In the scope of the AANChOR project, WP9 will dedicate to communication and dissemination activities with the aim to produce a consistent and targeted communication strategy to the All Atlantic Ocean initiative. As part of this plan, the AANChOR portal is expected to be a powerful communication tool, being a central electronic platform for the All Atlantic Ocean initiative communications in the scope of the AANChOR project as well as all other relevant EU Atlantic projects. It aims to create a strong visual identity in support of a continuous engagement with the stakeholders of the Atlantic Community. The portal will contain key information, news, events and outcomes, links to related information, regular newsletters, a promotional video and a special focus on social media posts.
The regular e-newsletter will compile projects’ progresses, research results & outcomes, events, articles or news on general topics in the Atlantic Marine sphere, job offers, funding calls, interviews with relevant stakeholders, among others.
In this context, the distribution of the regular e-newsletters implies the existence of a project mailing list that enables an extensive dissemination to all relevant stakeholders. The collection of subscribers is ensured by a voluntary registration. The purpose of this processing operation is to collect the name and e-mail address necessary for the regular invitations through e-mail to access the electronic version of the newsletter.

For organisational reasons, the role of the data controller is exercise by the EurOcean office team based in Portugal, in particular Ms. Sara Granchinho (sara.granchinho@eurocean.org) and/or Mrs Sandra Sá (sandra.sa@ eurocean.org).
