COMPENSATION FOR ROAD ACCIDENTS. THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW

Date: 03/30/2021

If you have suffered a traffic accident there are a few things you should consider, as depending on the circumstances of the event you may be entitled to compensation.

 

In this article we will try to advise you on this.

 

The first thing we should bear in mind before or when making any claim is that there are certain damages that may affect us to a greater or lesser extent. In this case we could suffer injuries or damage of greater or lesser severity, which could in turn lead to days off work (impeding or not impeding), a possible loss of our quality of life (physical or psychological sequelae derived from the accident, for example) and economic losses could also be generated (total loss of the affected vehicle, among others).

 

It is very important to contact a professional from the beginning as it will often happen that insurance companies try to pay less money than the person or persons affected may be entitled to. For this reason it will always be interesting to have the help of a lawyer who will give you legal advice in order to study the case and thus be able to claim or negotiate a possible compensation from the insurance company. In this sense it is always better to negotiate an out-of-court settlement. In this way we can speed up the process and we will not have to go to court.

 

– It is very important that we keep all the documentation relating to the accident: photographs of the event itself, including the evolution of the physical damage suffered by the affected parties, as well as all the parts and medical documents, X-rays, treatments followed, etc.

 

– From that moment on, the most likely thing is that you will make us an offer, which we will accept or not. In the event that we do not accept such an offer or solution to our problem we will always have the option of making a claim through legal channels. If you have any questions about compensation for traffic accidents or any other legal matter, please do not hesitate to contact us.

The User will have the right to withdraw his/her consent at any time. Withdrawing consent will be as easy as giving it. As a general rule, withdrawal of consent shall not condition the use of the Website.

On the occasions when the User must or may provide his or her data through forms to make enquiries, request information or for reasons related to the content of the Web Site, he or she will be informed if the completion of any of these forms is mandatory because they are essential for the correct development of the operation carried out.

Personal data of minors

In the case of a minor under 14 years of age, the consent of the parents or guardians will be required for the processing, and this will only be considered lawful to the extent that they have authorised it.

Secrecy and security of personal data

Sánchez Solicitors Abogados undertakes to adopt the necessary technical and organisational measures, according to the level of security appropriate to the risk of the data collected, in order to guarantee the security of personal data and to avoid the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss or alteration of personal data transmitted, stored or otherwise processed, or the unauthorised communication of or access to such data. However, due to the fact that Sánchez Solicitors Abogados cannot guarantee the inexpugnability of the internet or the total absence of hackers or others who access personal data in a fraudulent manner, the data controller undertakes to inform the user without undue delay when a violation of the security of personal data occurs that is likely to involve a high risk to the rights and freedoms of individuals. In accordance with the provisions of article 4 of the RGPD, a violation of the security of personal data is understood to be any violation of security that results in the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss or alteration of personal data transmitted, stored or otherwise processed, or the unauthorised communication of or access to such data.

The personal data will be treated as confidential by the data controller, who undertakes to inform of and to ensure by means of a legal or contractual obligation that such confidentiality is respected by his employees, associates, and any person to whom he makes the information accessible.

Rights arising from the processing of personal data

Users have the following rights over Sánchez Solicitors Abogados and may therefore exercise them against the person responsible for processing them, as recognised in the RGPD and Organic Law 3/2018 of 5 December on the Protection of Personal Data and the guarantee of digital rights:

- Right of access: This is the right of the User to obtain confirmation of whether or not Sanchez Solicitors Abogados is processing his/her personal data and, if so, to obtain information about his/her specific personal data and the processing that Sanchez Solicitors Abogados has carried out or will carry out, as well as, among other things, information available about the origin of such data and the recipients of the communications made or planned.

- Right of rectification: This is the user's right to have his or her personal data modified if it is found to be inaccurate or, taking into account the purposes of the processing, incomplete. - Right of suppression ("the right to forget"): This is the right of the User, provided that the legislation in force does not stipulate otherwise, to obtain the deletion of his or her personal data when these are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or processed; the User has withdrawn his or her consent to the processing and the processing has no other legal basis; the user opposes the processing and there is no other legitimate reason to continue it; the personal data has been processed unlawfully; the personal data must be deleted in compliance with a legal obligation; or the personal data has been obtained as a result of a direct offer of information society services to a person under 14 years of age. In addition to the deletion of the data, the data controller must, taking into account the available technology and the cost of its implementation, take reasonable steps to inform the data controllers who are processing the personal data of the data subject's request for the deletion of any link to those personal data. - Right to limit processing: This is the right of the User to limit the processing of his or her personal data. Users have the right to obtain limitation of processing when they contest the accuracy of their personal data; the processing is unlawful; the data controller no longer needs the personal data, but the user needs it to make a claim; and when the user has objected to the processing.

- Right to the portability of data: Where processing is carried out by automated means, the User shall have the right to receive from the Data Controller his personal data in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and to transmit them to another Data Controller. Wherever technically possible, the data controller will transmit the data directly to that other controller.

- Right to object: This is the user's right not to have his/her personal data processed or to have it stopped by Sánchez Solicitors Abogados.

- Right not to be the object of a decision based solely on the automated processing, including the creation of profiles: This is the right of the User not to be the object of an individualised decision based solely on the automated processing of his or her personal data, including the creation of profiles, unless otherwise established by current legislation.
