3 The purpose of processing personal data

Personal data are processed for purposes related to maintaining, managing and developing the customer relationship, offering, supplying and developing services as well as invoicing. Personal data are also processed for the purposes necessitated by resolving any possible complaints and other claims.

Furthermore, personal data are processed in communications directed at customers as well as marketing, in conjunction to which the data are also processed for purposes pertaining to direct marketing and electronic direct marketing.

Customers have the right to refuse direct marketing targeted at them.

The controller processes personal data directly and also utilises subcontractors working on its behalf in the processing activities.

4 Legal grounds of the processing

The legal grounds for processing personal data are the following grounds specified in the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (hereinafter referred to as “GDPR”):

  1. the data subject has given consent to the processing of his or her personal data for one or more specific purposes (GDPR Art. 6(1)(a));
  2. processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party or in order to take steps at the request of the data subject prior to entering into a contract (GDPR Art. 6(1)(b));
  3. processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party (GDPR Art 6(1)(f)).

The aforementioned legitimate interest of the register keeper is based on a meaningful and appropriate relationship between the data subject and controller as a result of the data subject being a customer of the controller and the processing being conducted for purposes that the data subject can have reasonably anticipated at the time of collecting the personal data and in the context of the appropriate relationship.

5 Data content of the file (categories of personal data processed)

As a general rule, the file contains the following personal data on all data subjects:

  1. basic information and contact information for the person: first name, last name, address, telephone number, e-mail address;
  2. information related to the person’s company or other organisation and the person’s position or title in the company or organisation in question;
  3. direct marketing permissions and bans for the person.

6 Regular sources of information

Personal data are collected from the data subjects themselves.

In addition to this, personal data are collected within the framework of the applicable legislation from generally available sources that pertain to fulfilling the relationship between the controller and data subject, and that the controller can use to perform its duties related to maintaining customer relationships.

7 Storage period of personal data

Personal data collected in the file are stored only for as long and to the extent that is necessary in relation to the original or a compatible purpose for which the personal data has been collected.

 

The need to retain personal data is assessed every five (5) years and, in any case, data concerning a data subject are removed from the file five (5) yearsafter the end of the customer relationship between the data subject in question and the controller has ended, and the obligations and measures related to the customer relationship have been fulfilled. For example, accounting records are kept for six years after the end of a financial period.

 

The controller shall regularly assess the necessity of storing the data in accordance with its internal code of conduct. Furthermore, the controller shall by all reasonable measures ensure that any personal data that are inaccurate, erroneous or contain obsolete information in terms of the purposes of processing the data are deleted or corrected without delay.

8 Recipients of personal data (recipient groups) and regular data disclosures

Personal data will not be disclosed to third parties.

9 Transferring data outside the EU or EEA

10 Register protection principles

[Materials containing personal data are stored in locked spaces that can only be accessed by the appointed persons with task-based authorisation.

The database containing personal data is on a server which is stored in a locked space that can only be accessed by the appointed persons with task-based authorisation. The server is protected with the appropriate firewall and technical safeguards.

The databases and systems can only be accessed with separately provided personal user IDs and passwords. The controller has restricted access rights and authorisations to information systems and other storage platforms so that the data can only be viewed and processed by persons who are required to do so to ensure the lawful processing of the data. Furthermore, the database and system interactions are registered in the log data of the controller’s IT system.

The controller’s employees and other persons have undertaken to observe secrecy and keep secret any information they may gain in the context of processing personal data.]
