This privacy policy is based on the terminology of the GDPR. For your convenience, we would like to explain some important terms in this context in more detail:
We may obtain personal information in the following ways:
You can provide information (e.g. contact details) about yourself on our website.
By using our website, data is automatically collected and generated.
Information obtained through publicly available sources and to the extent we maintain presences on social and professional networks, we may receive data from you through them (e.g., if you contact us through a social or professional network or respond to any of our content shared there).
In the following, we provide you with an overview of which personal data we process. For this purpose, we present to what extent, for what purposes and on what legal basis we process personal data.
We will not disclose your personal data to third parties without your consent, unless this is permitted by law (e.g., because it is necessary for the performance of the contract).
The processing of your personal data may be based in particular on the following legal bases:
Personal data may be transferred outside European Economic Area (“EEA”), when necessary for the purpose of IQM Finland Oy’s affiliates established outside EEA to perform services. In addition, we use ICT and other service providers, which may transfer and process information outside EEA. The basis of a transfer outside the EEA is European Commission’s adequacy decisions, EU-US Data Privacy Framework or European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses or alternative data export mechanism for data transfer or other legal basis as permitted by the GDPR. Additional safeguards shall be applied to the transfer as required by law.
The personal data processed by us will be deleted in accordance with the legal requirements as soon as your consents permitted for processing are revoked or other permissions cease to apply (e.g., if the purpose of processing this data has ceased to apply or it is not required for the purpose). If the personal data are not deleted because they are required for other and legally permissible purposes, their processing will be limited to these purposes. This applies, for example, to personal data that must be retained for reasons of commercial or tax law or whose storage is necessary for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person.
As far as our privacy policy contains further information on the retention and deletion of personal data, those have priority for the respective processing activities.
We take appropriate technical and organizational measures in accordance with the legal requirements, taking into account the state of the art, the implementation costs and the nature, scope, circumstances and purposes of the processing, as well as the different probabilities of occurrence and the extent of the threat to the rights and freedoms of natural persons, in order to ensure a level of protection appropriate to the risk.
The measures include safeguarding the confidentiality, integrity and availability of data by controlling physical and electronic access to the data as well as access to, input of, disclosure of, assurance of availability of and segregation of the data. Furthermore, we have established procedures to ensure the exercise of data subjects' rights, the deletion of data, and responses to data compromise. We take the protection of personal data into account as early as the development or selection of hardware, software and processes in accordance with the principle of data protection, through technology design and through data protection-friendly default settings.
In the course of our processing of personal data, personal data may be transferred to or disclosed to other recipients. Recipients of this personal data may include, for example, service providers commissioned with IT tasks or providers of services and content that are integrated into a website. In such cases, we comply with the legal requirements and, in particular, conclude appropriate contracts or agreements that serve to protect your personal data with the recipients of your personal data.
If you use this website for purely informational purposes without otherwise transmitting data to us (e.g., by registering or using the contact form), we collect via server log files technically necessary data that are automatically transmitted to our server, including:
The temporary storage of data is necessary for the course of a website visit in order to display our website to you. This processing is technically necessary to ensure the functionality of the website and the security of the information technology systems. The legal basis of the processing is thus Art. 6 (1) f GDPR, in order to guarantee the provision, security and stability of our website.
The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. In the case of the provision of the website, this is the case when the respective session has ended. The log files are stored maximum up to 24 hours directly and exclusively accessible to administrators. After that, they are only indirectly available via the reconstruction of backup tapes and are finally deleted after, maximum four weeks.
For the provision of our online offer, we use storage space, computing capacity and software that we rent or otherwise obtain from the server provider DigitalOcean, LLC. Provider is DigitalOcean, LLC. 101 Avenue of the Americas, 10th Floor New York 10013 (hereinafter: DigitalOcean) (web host). The location of the cloud server is Germany. However, it may be that personal data is transferred to the U.S.. There is an adequacy decision of the Commission pursuant to Art. 45(3) GDPR. The European Commission has adopted an adequacy decision pursuant to Art. 45(3) GDPR for the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework. Based on this decision, data transfers to organizations located in the U.S. that are certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework are permitted, accordingly. DigitalOcean is certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework.
We use a content delivery network (CDN). A CDN is a service with the help of which the content of an online offer, in particular large media files such as graphics or program scripts, can be delivered faster and more securely with the help of regionally distributed servers connected via the Internet. This means that the website is not hosted on a single server, but is delivered via a network of geographically distributed, possibly interconnected servers. The server used is the one closest to you as the user. As a result, the CDN processes all of the aforementioned personal data that is required to provide the website.
The legal basis for the use of a CDN are our legitimate interests according to Art. 6(1) f GDPR to provide you with the best and fastest connection, from which you as a user also benefit.
As CDN we use the provider Craft, powered by Pixel and Tonic Inc, Inc., 320 SW Century Drive Ste 405 #136Bend, OR 97702 USA. The personal data is thereby transferred to the U.S. To ensure an adequate level of data protection at the recipient of your personal data, we have entered into standard contractual clauses (SCCs) by the European Commission for the protection of personal data pursuant to Art. 46(1), (2) c GDPR. For more information and a copy of the SCCs please contact the contact address provided.
