UFEC Whistleblower Channel

As an employee, you can report serious matters anonymously or if you have reasonable suspicion of such matters.

Anonymous reporting of serious matters

Through this page, you can submit information about reprehensible matters or report actions that are unethical, illegal or in violation of internal policies. The scheme is to be used to bring matters to light that would not otherwise have come to light.

It can be reported confidentially with indication of name and contact information or, if desired, 100% anonymously.

All inquiries are treated confidentially and securely.

HR related matters

HR related matters cannot be reported in this system, but must instead be discussed with the immediate manager, director or HR.

From this page you are able to make a new secure report or follow up on an existing report.

Following up on your reports can be relevant for numerous reasons:

1) You wish to see the status of your report, to check if action is being taken.

2) You wish to provide additional information to your report.

3) The system administrators has requested additional information from you to help them resolve the issue or take the appropriate action.

The persons who make a communication through the ethical channel declare and guarantee that the personal data provided are true, exact, complete and up to date, and will hold the UFEC harmless from any liability that may arise from failure to comply with these declarations and guarantees. In any case, the data relating to any fact investigated will be kept.

UFEC will keep the personal data for the time strictly necessary to resolve the communications of non-compliance and to process the corresponding queries and, once they have been resolved, they will be kept blocked in order to comply with the legal obligations that, in each case, correspond.

The legal basis for the processing of data is compliance with the legal obligation to resell the queries made, applicable by virtue of the provisions of Organic Law 10/1995, of 23 November, of the Penal Code.

The rights of access, rectification, suppression, opposition, limitation of the processing, or to oppose the processing in the legally permitted cases, as well as the right to the portability of the arms may be exercised, in the terms specified by the current regulations, before UFEC, by means of communication by e-mail to the address protecciodedades@ufec.cat or by post to the Unió de Federacions Esportives de Catalunya, Rambla Catalunya, 81, pral, 08008, Barcelona, with the ref. ‘Protecció de Dades’, enclosing a photograph of your ID card and indicating the specific right you wish to exercise.

In this case, UFEC will carry out international transfers of your personal data to third countries or to an international organisation. Only in the event that the fact brought to the attention of the UFEC gives rise to administrative or judicial proceedings may the data provided be communicated to the competent authorities for investigation and sanction. Where appropriate, the contracts provided for in art. 28.3 of the GDPR will be signed with the external providers that access or process the personal data and, where appropriate, transfers to third countries outside the European Union will be regularised in accordance with the regime provided for in arts. 44 et seq. of the GDPR.
