Privacy policy

Definitions and application

The data protection practice takes into account the legislation in force in Finland; The Personal Data Act (523/1999), the EU Data Protection Regulation (2016/679) and the guidance and recommendations issued by the Data Protection Ombudsman. The Privacy Policy describes the general privacy principles for company operations, which are supplemented by information system-specific registry descriptions of the personal records used and referenced in the Terms of Service.

“Personal data” means information that can be identified by an individual. In addition to personal information, we also collect non-personally identifiable information, which refers to information about your use of the Services that cannot be identified by an individual.
