The personal data of the registered person is deleted upon the user’s request unless legislation, customer relationship management, open invoices, or collection actions prevent the deletion of the data.

TRANSFER OF DATA OUTSIDE THE EU OR EEA

The data in the register is not regularly transferred outside the EU or EEA. However, it is possible that service providers outside the EU/EEA are used in processing, or that the service providers’ cloud servers are located outside the EU/EEA. In such cases, standard contractual clauses (SCCs) are used as the basis for the transfer, and additional safeguards are implemented, such as internal guidelines (on pseudonymization of personal data and similar) and possibly a TIA analysis if required by the situation.

When the organization processing personal data is committed to the EU-USA data privacy framework (DPF), it is used as the basis for the transfer during its validity.

The protection and processing of register data comply with data protection law provisions and principles, authority regulations, and good data processing practices.

PRINCIPLES OF REGISTER PROTECTION B: ELECTRONIC DATA

Only designated employees of the organization and companies acting on its behalf have the right to use, for example, workstations whose software can maintain data on potential customers. Each designated user has a personal user ID and password. Each user has signed a confidentiality agreement.

The system is protected by a firewall that protects against external contacts to the system, and workstations are protected with appropriate security software.

The protection and processing of register data comply with data protection law provisions and principles, authority regulations, and good data processing practices.
