Information We Collect from our Online Service

We store in our register the information you have provided yourself through the Service’s contact form. If a response is desired for feedback sent via the feedback form or email, the feedback must be sent with contact information. Messages sent via the contact form are archived in the Service.

Those sending feedback containing personal data should note that the data security of an unprotected feedback form or email message is weak, and the confidentiality and protection of information cannot be fully ensured in such cases. This should be particularly noted for sensitive data concerning privacy.

Purpose of the Register

The register is used in compliance with personal data law for managing and developing customer relationships, as well as for producing, developing, and maintaining the Service. We may also use the register for informing about our various services and for billing matters. Through the collection of personal data, we may also send you targeted marketing or customer messages. However, if you do not wish to receive messages, you can notify the register administrator at any time.

Auralan Setlementti ry does not sell, exchange, or transfer your personally identifiable information to outside parties. This does not include trusted third parties who assist us in operating our website or conducting our business. Third parties are also required to keep the information confidential. We believe that sharing information is necessary to investigate, prevent, or otherwise address illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations that may threaten the physical safety of any person, violations of our terms of use, and in other situations required by law.

Is My Data Disclosed outside the EU?

Your personal data is not, in principle, disclosed outside the EU. Any disclosures outside the EU only concern situations where the servers of the systems we use are located outside the EU. Should this occur, we ensure that the processing, transfer, and storage of your data are carried out on legal grounds and with adequate protection mechanisms.

How Long is My Personal Data Stored?

We do not store your personal data longer than necessary for its purpose or as required by contract or law. However, personal data retention periods may vary depending on the purpose of use and the situation. Generally, upon termination of a contract, we delete personal data from our systems. We also strive to update your data from time to time. Visitor data collected by the Google Analytics service from our website is stored for 14 months, after which it is automatically deleted from Google’s servers.

The register is protected from external access, and its use is secured with personal usernames and passwords. Users are bound by a duty of confidentiality. Access to the register is restricted to employees of Auralan Setlementti ry and employees of Trival Oy, the producer of Auralan Setlementti ry’s online service.
