1. What information does Tukimet collect?

We collect information about users for the purposes specified in Section 3 of this privacy statement. The purpose for data collection defines what information is collected from the user in each situation.

Information provided by the user or personally identifiable data:
- contact details, such as name, address, telephone number, email address
- the registration data required for a digital account, such as username, nickname, password and any other individual identifier
- customer account information, such as invoicing and payment details, product and order information
- customer feedback and contacts, competition responses and subscription cancellation data
- preferences and interest information provided by the user
- permissions and consents
- information provided to surveys and research
- any other information collected with the user’s consent

Data in our marketing register:
Our marketing registers contain information about a person’s name and contact details. We can store user’s information in our marketing register for example when the user has given their information through a contact sheet or if the user has given us their contact details for example in writing or orally at a product presentation, trade fair or a meeting.

2. From which sources is my information collected?

Personal data is mainly collected at the point of subscription or registration, or later during the customer relationship. Additional sources of information include the Finnish Population Information System, and other similar public or private registers.

3. For which purposes is my data collected?

We only collect, handle and use personal data for predefined purposes, mainly:

• To enable online services and purchases in our digital and physical stores and delivery of our products

• To manage, run and maintain our website

• To develop our products, marketing and website

• To reply to your questions and requests

• For special offers, purchases and customer relationship management

• To offer you information about products that interest you through various marketing channels i.e. newsletters (if you have subscribed for them), social media and online and search engine marketing

• To communicate with you about e.g. reminders, safety notices or briefings

• To manage awards, surveys, sweepstakes, competitions or other activities related to promotion of sales

• To comply with our legal obligations, to exercise, establish or defend our legal rights, or to protect your vital interests or those of any other person and to prevent and/or detect fraud or fraudulent behavior

• Other specific purposes for which you have distinctly given your consent and other possible purposes allowed by the law

We ask for your consent as required by the law before collecting, processing and using your personal data for the above purposes. If we wish to use your personal information for any new or other purpose, we will notify you and we will use your information for such purposes only when the law requires or permits such use or you have consented to it.

Only a limited number of Tukimet Oy employees have access to your personal information for the above purposes (e.g. sales, support functions, law services, financial administration, IT services and accounting staff and some other superiors).

4. How is my data stored and combined?

We handle the personally identifiable information that the user has given to us (such as profile and contact details) separately from observed data about online service use and derived data, typically in separate databases.

5. For how long will my data be stored?

We store user information only for as long as is necessary in order to fulfil the purposes set out in Section 3 above, in accordance with the applicable legislation.

A person’s digital account is typically valid for eighteen (18) months. If the user has not logged in to his or her digital account during that time period, the user is requested to renew his or her user rights. If the user does not renew his or her user rights, or the user’s customer relationship or other reason for handling personal data are no longer valid, the user’s personal data will be deleted, transferred to a permanent marketing register, or anonymized into such a format that it is no longer possible to identify the person.

In addition, we may be obligated to store some of the user’s personal data in order to comply with accounting laws or other imperative legal provisions, even after the termination of the customer relationship.

6. Who can handle my personal data?

The employees of Tukimet Inc. can handle personal data according to the applicable Personal Data Act. We may also outsource the handling of personal data to a third party supplier or vendor, in which case we ensure through contractual measures that the personal data is handled appropriately and in compliance with the Personal Data Act.

These processing purposes may include e.g. database management, service maintenance, network analysis, responding to contacts, order delivery, mailing and emailing, recurring unnecessary data from customer databases, data analysis, sales and marketing assistance, credit card processing and customer service.

Most orders are sent internationally through PostNord or within Finland through Matkahuolto and hence these companies will have access to the personal data required to make the delivery. The Privacy Policy for PostNord is available here and for Matkahuolto here (only available in Finnish). Other third party service providers may be, for example, information technology companies, credit card payment processors, credit rating companies, companies providing legal and financial services or other consultants.

The service provider only has access to the personal information required to perform certain tasks, and the information is only used for these tasks. We will ensure that the third-party service providers are aware of and abide by these commitments. In addition, we ensure that all third-party service providers process your personal information with the care required by at least the applicable data protection laws and adhere to appropriate technical and organizational security measures.

We typically store our data in the EU or the EEA. If any data is transferred outside the EU or EEA, we will ensure that the country to which the data is transferred is approved as having a sufficient level of privacy protection by the European Commission, or by using standard contractual model clauses approved by the European Commission. Third party suppliers processing data on our behalf must handle personal data in compliance with this privacy statement.

We only transfer information to third parties for their independent use in cases presented in Section 7.

7. Will my data be transferred or disclosed to third parties?

We will not sell, lease out or disclose personal data of an identified user to third parties for their independent purposes, except for the situations shown below.

We can disclose user’s data to third parties, if the user has given his or her express consent for such transfer.

We may also disclose personal data to authorities or to other parties if required to do so by law.

In the case of mergers, acquisitions, or other kinds of re-arrangements of our business operations, personal data may be transferred to buyers and their advisors.

8. How is my personal data protected?

We use technical and organizational measures to protect personal data against unauthorized access, transfer, deletion or other handling that may compromise information security. Such methods include the use of firewalls, encryption technologies and safe server rooms, proper access control systems, the controlled provision of user rights and supervision of their use, providing instructions for data processors, and the thorough selection of competent subcontractors who comply with industry standards for information security management.

9. What are cookies and are they used on Tukimet’s websites?

We may use cookies and other similar online technologies, such as the browser’s local data storage, to collect data from a user’s terminal. Cookies are small text files that the browser saves in the user’s device. Cookies often contain an anonymous individual identifier, which we can use to measure how many different browsers are visiting our websites, and how our online services are being used.

10. Do third parties collect information about my visits to Tukimet websites?

Third parties refer to parties other than Tukimet, such as advertisers, advertising networks or providers of online measurement and analytics services, who may collect data from Tukimet’s sites. These third parties may place their cookies on the user’s browser when the user visits our services, for example, in order to offer targeted digital advertisements to the user, or to compile statistics about the number of visitors on different sites. In this case, the user’s browser will call the third party’s servers for the delivery of the advertisements, and the third party can view, edit or set its cookies as if the user was on its website. Tukimet has contractual measures in place to ensure that such third parties follow the applicable legislation and relevant self-regulatory guidelines.

Our services may contain social plugins, such as Facebook’s like buttons. Although Facebook’s social plugin buttons may be displayed in some of our sites and services, their content comes directly from Facebook. Facebook may collect information about users’ visits according to its privacy policy. Facebook will not transfer the information collected to Tukimet, unless the user has given his or her express consent for this purpose. Users can read the service terms and privacy policies of third party social networking services on their sites. The Privacy Policy for Facebook is available here.

For orders done through our online shop, payments and data are processed by either Klarna Bank AB or Checkout Finland Oy, depending on the customer’s choice of payment method. You can read the Privacy Policy for Klarna here and for Checkout Finland here (available only in Finnish).

Our landing pages are hosted by WordPress and they forward the data given by you to us. However WordPress may also have access to this information. You can read their Privacy Policy here.

Our services may also contain links to non-Tukimet websites other than those listed above. However we are not responsible for the privacy policies nor for the content of such third party websites. We recommend that users read the privacy statements of each website.

11. How can I influence my privacy?

We are committed to providing our users choices and control over data processing. In this section we list different ways of influencing data collection and processing.
