Data subjects and the purpose of processing their personal data

Job applicants

We process the personal data of job applicants for recruitment decision-making purposes. The processing is primarily based on legitimate interests and consent from you, if you give us consent to save the data you have provided in the recruitment process for future job opportunities. Personal data to be processed include data provided by the job applicant via e-mail, phone, our recruitment system, or during an interview. Such data include the job applicant's contact information, information about their education and job experience, and data given by the job applicant during an interview. With the job applicant's consent, data can also be requested from a referee named by the applicant.

Customers

The purpose of processing the personal data of customers is contacting the customers and maintaining customerships. The processing is primarily based on legitimate interests and a contract. In our line of business, it is necessary to be in contact with the customers and their contact persons. Personal data to be processed include the customers' contact information, information about their contracts, and customer feedback. The data are collected from the customers themselves via e-mail, phone, from their contracts, from customer satisfaction surveys, and during customer meetings.

Personal data may be transferred outside the European Union or the European Economic Area to the extent to which it has been saved in Microsoft O365 services (personal data of customers and those who provided their contact information at the website). Microsoft uses standard clauses in the data transfers of their corporate network services.  The standard clauses are standard terms approved by the European Commission that may be used when data is to be transferred outside the European Economic Area in accordance with the GDPR. Microsoft also has the Privacy Shield certificate. The Privacy Shield arrangement between the EU and the United States helps customers transfer their data to the United States in compliance with data security requirements. Any personal data transfers are always executed in compliance with the applicable data security legislation. 

Our recruiting system supplier, Sympa Oy, has access to the personal data of job applicants, and they are in compliance with the GDPR requirements about processing personal data.

Job applicants

After the completion of the recruitment process, the personal data of job applicants are stored for 6 months or 12 months, according to your consent.
