1. DEFINITONS

Personal data is any information about an individual. The processing of personal data is any operation that involves the processing of personal data, such as the collection, storage, alteration, use, viewing, deletion or destruction of data.

A data subject is a natural person whose personal data is processed by VANAPABER. Data subjects may be, for example, natural persons that are Customers of VANAPABER, visitors to websites or other persons who contact VANAPABER. The data subject is also referred to in the Data Protection Rules as “You” or “Customer”.

The controller is the person who determines the purpose and means of the processing of personal data and is responsible for ensuring that the processing of personal data is lawful, and the rights of the data subjects are respected. For the purposes of Data Protection Rules, the controller of your personal data is EESTI VANAPABER OÜ or any other company belonging to the VANAPABER group, to which you specifically turn.

2. Objectives and legal bases for data processing

Personal data shall be processed on the basis of the consent of the data subject or the legitimate interest of the data controller. The data shall be processed for the following purposes:

  • identification of the Customer for the purpose of performing and securing the contract
  • communicating with the Customer for the purpose of performing and securing the contract
  • responding to Customer inquiries and requests
  • making direct marketing promotional offers to a client, subject to client consent
  • conducting customer satisfaction surveys with your consent to VANAPABER, provided you have not prohibited us from sending customer satisfaction surveys to you

In addition to basic data, information on marketing activities, Customer interactions and website views may also be processed.

EESTI VANAPABER OÜ has the right to record information about the consent and refusal given by data subjects regarding direct marketing activities.

Personal data is collected directly from the data subject, for example through various means of communication (telephone, e-mail) when the data subject registers on VANAPABER’s direct marketing list on VANAPABER’s website, when the data subject registers as part of marketing activities or otherwise.

Personal data may also be collected from other registers available to the data controller, including national databases, as well as from other companies in the VANAPABER group, with the legitimate interest of the data controller or with the consent of the data subject.

5. USING SECURITY CAMERAS

We use security cameras at VANAPABER’s sites to protect our Customers and property. Therefore, when you visit our sites, your image may be left on the recordings of our security cameras. VANAPABER’s security cameras record only video; sound is not recorded. When using security cameras, the area within their field of vision is always marked.

The legal basis for the use of security cameras and their recordings is VANAPABER’s legitimate interest in guaranteeing the safety of Customers and property.

Security camera recordings are kept for three months. Security camera recordings may be used only by VANAPABER’s personnel who need access to security camera recordings because of their duties.

You have the right to access and receive a copy of the recording on which you are visible. Please submit a request for a copy of the recording. Please submit your application using the contact details provided in the data protection rules. In your application, describe as precisely as possible the time (date, time) and the place where your image was recorded.
