Other personal data will be deleted when there is no longer a need to retain personal data. If the collection and storage of personal data has been based solely on the Customer's consent, the personal data will be deleted at the Customer's request.

​

​

REGULAR SOURCES OF INFORMATION

 

Personal data is collected from the data subject himself, among other things, when the data subject uses the data controller's services or plans to use them (for example, when booking an apartment or registering as a Registrar's customer). Personal information may also be collected directly from the registrant himself, for example through contact forms, e-mail inquiries, newsletter subscriptions, customer satisfaction surveys or raffles. Personal data can also be collected and updated from, for example, the population register and other authority registers as well as credit data registers.

 

​

DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION

 

Access to all data relating to the data subject shall be limited to those persons to whom access to the data contained in the register is necessary for the maintaining purposes of processing the register or for the production of other tasks related to the services provided by the Registrar. The Registrar may disclose personal data to the extent permitted and binding by applicable law and for the purpose of implementing an agreement between the parties or establishing a material connection. Thus, personal data may be disclosed, for example, to the authorities, partners involved in the provision of the service and, in the event of a dispute, to legal assistants.

​

Data may also be transferred or given outside the European Union or the European Economic Area as permitted by law, provided that contractual arrangements guarantee an adequate level of data protection. Transfers outside the EU can also take place in connection with the use of various cloud services.

​

Information is provided to the authorities in cases required by law.

 

In connection with the outsourcing of the controller's information management, the processing of personal data may also take place by the controller's subcontractors, but in that case only on behalf of the controller. Such subcontractors may be, for example, the service providers of the registrar's reservation management system, as well as the parties maintaining the housing sales notification portals and the companies performing customer satisfaction measurements. 2ndhomes Ltd's and Tampere Ltd's subcontractors include Guesty (Privacy Statement is available at https://privacy.guesty.com/), Almamedia (Privacy Statement is available at https://www.almamedia.fi/en/tietosuoja/data-privacy/), Schibsted (Privacy Statement is available at https://info.privacy.schibsted.com/en/) and Wix (Privacy Statement is available at https://www.wix.com/about/privacy).


 

PRINCIPLES FOR THE PROTECTION OF THE REGISTER

 

Access to the register requires a user ID issued by the administrator of the Customer Register. The administrator also determines the level of access to be granted to other users. Only those partners, employees and employees of subcontractors of the Registrar shall have access to the information necessary for the performance of their work-related tasks. The information is collected in databases, which are protected by firewalls, passwords and other technical means. Customer information is stored electronically. If personal data containing a personal identity number is transferred from 2ndhomesLtd's and Tampere Ltd, for example by e-mail, this always requires the permission of the owner of the personal identity number.

​
