Types of personal data, purposes and legal basis

Priva may process personal data provided by you, such as:

• contact details and other personal data needed to provide our products and services
  
  Such data may be used to invoice the products and services Priva provides to you or the organization you work for. When using Priva Data Services related web and mobile applications, Priva makes use of an identifier related to an authenticated user to authorize its users. For display purposes only (so the user can recognize her/himself in our applications) Priva uses the DisplayName provided by our identity provider (Microsoft Azure AAD B2C). 
  We process these personal data on the basis of a legal obligation, the performance of a contract or on the basis of a legitimate interest, such as security reasons.

  These personal data may be used by Priva to send you invitations to events and seminars, newsletters, updates and other relevant or requested information. We process these data with your consent or on the basis of a legitimate interest.

  Priva uses these data to provide you with the requested information or to answer your questions, based on your consent or a legitimate interest. 

• personal data obtained from the trade register of the chamber of commerce 
  
  Priva uses this information, among other things, to determine with whom we enter into an agreement with and who is authorized to sign such an agreement. Priva processes this information on the basis of a legal obligation, to take steps prior to entering into a contract or for the performance of a contract. 

• personal data obtained through or generated on our website, electronic newsletters, commercial emails, or related technologies
  
  This includes data such as your IP address, browsing behaviour on our website (including our web and mobile applications) and whether you open a newsletter or commercial email. Such information enables us to get an idea of the number of visitors, the duration of the visits, what sections of the website are visited and the click-behaviour of our visitors. We mainly use this information to improve our websites, newsletters and commercial emails as well as to carry out and analyse customer satisfaction surveys.

Processing on the basis of consent

If the processing of your personal data is based on consent, you have the right to withdraw this consent at any time. This does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before this withdrawal.

Processors

Priva may hire service providers (processors) for the processing of your personal data which solely process your personal data based on our instructions. Priva will conclude a data processing agreement with these processors which meets the requirements laid down in the General Data Protection Regulation.

Priva, for example, works with service providers offering IaaS solutions (Infrastructure as a Service) or hosting services. Priva also hires IT service providers that provide support to the operation of our systems and makes use of third-party services to send newsletters and commercial emails.

Third parties

Priva may share your personal data with third parties, including governmental bodies and supervisory authorities, when i) Priva believes itis necessary to complywith any law, regulation or request, ii) to respond to claims or legal process, iii) to protect our or another person’s rights, property,or safety, or iv) to investigate or remedy potential violations of our terms and policies.

Personal data can also be provided to third parties in case of a reorganization or merger of our company or sale of (a part) thereof.

Transfer outside the European Economic Area

Priva may need to transfer your personal data to parties located outside of the European Economic Area (EEA), depending on the circumstances. If necessary, Priva will put appropriate safeguards in place to ensure a secure transfer of personal data to third countries, such as the conclusion of EU Standard Contractual Clauses with the recipient of your personal data.

How long do we retain personal data?

We do not retain your personal data longer than necessary for the purposes for which they are processed, unless the data must be kept longer in order to comply with legal obligations, such as a statutory retention period. For example, our financial records will be retained for seven years due to the tax retention obligation.
