Personal Data Processing Principles

Fairness, Lawfulness, and Transparency

The Organization collects and processes Personal Data only in the context to perform a contract, or where the processing is in the Controller’s legitimate interests and not overridden by Data Subjects’ protection interests or fundamental rights and freedoms, or where the Data Subject’s consent has been obtained. In some cases, the Organization may also have a legal obligation to process Personal Data or may otherwise need the Personal Data to protect Data Subject’s vital interests or those of another person. Personal Data shall not be processed in a way that is unduly detrimental, unexpected or misleading to the individuals concerned. The Organization shall provide all required information to the Data Subject regarding the processing of Personal Data, such as: processing purposes, the identity of the Controller, third parties or categories of third parties to whom the data might be transmitted.

Purpose Limitation

Personal Data can be processed only for the purpose that was defined before the data were collected. Subsequent changes to the purpose are only possible to a limited extent (compatible with original purpose) and require the Data Subject to be informed and provide his / her consent or there is a clear basis in law (see article 6 of General Regulation on Personal Data Protection 2016/679/EU).

Data Minimization

The Organization shall ensure that Personal Data processed are:

  • adequate – sufficient to properly fulfill your stated purpose;
  • relevant – has a rational link to that purpose; and
  • limited to what is necessary – you do not hold more than you need for that purpose.

Personal Data shall not be collected in advance and stored for potential future purposes unless required or permitted by law.

Storage Limitation / Deletion

The Organization retains Personal Data for as long as necessary for the purposes for which the Personal Data were collected or where the Controller has an ongoing legitimate business need to do so, or to comply with applicable legal, tax, or regulatory requirements. For that purpose, appropriate retention periods shall be defined taking under consideration legal, regulatory and business/contractual requirements.

When there is no ongoing legitimate business need to process Personal Data, the Organization will either securely destroy, erase, delete or anonymize them, or if this is not possible (for example, because Personal Data have been stored in backup archives), Personal Data shall be securely stored and isolated from any further processing until deletion is possible.

Accuracy

The Organization shall take all reasonable steps to ensure the Personal Data processed are correct, complete and, if necessary, kept up-to-date. Appropriate steps shall be taken to ensure that inaccurate or incomplete data are deleted, corrected, supplemented or updated.

Safeguard Security of Personal Data

Personal Data shall be treated as Confidential Information and shall be handled accordingly. Appropriate technical and organizational measures shall be enforced in order to safeguard confidentiality, integrity, and availability of Personal Data (measures to prevent unauthorized access, illegal processing or distribution, as well as accidental loss, modification or destruction).
