4. Method and Location of Data Processing

4.1. Processing Method

The data controller implements appropriate security measures to prevent unauthorized access to, disclosure, alteration, or destruction of the data without authorization. Data processing is carried out using computers and/or IT tools, in accordance with organizational procedures and practices that are closely aligned with the specified purposes.

Personal data may be accessible to authorized employees and external service providers involved in carrying out the processing activities. When these service providers process personal data on behalf of the data controller, they act as data processors, and the applicable contractual and legal obligations regarding data protection are complied with. Access to personal data is limited to what is necessary for the performance of their duties.

4.2. Legal basis for processing

The data controller processes personal data only when there is a valid legal basis for doing so in accordance with Article 6 of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Depending on the purpose of the processing, this may include, among other things:

  • Consent: when the data subject has given valid prior consent for a specific purpose of processing.
  • Performance of a contract or precontractual measures: when processing is necessary to perform a contract with the data subject or to take steps at the data subject’s request prior to entering into a contract.
  • Legal obligation: when the processing is necessary to comply with a legal obligation to which the data controller is subject.
  • Legitimate interest: when the processing is necessary to pursue a legitimate interest of the controller or a third party, and the interests, fundamental rights, and freedoms of the data subject do not override those interests.

If processing is based on consent, the data subject may withdraw that consent at any time. The withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of the processing that took place prior to the withdrawal.

The applicable legal basis is explained in more detail, where relevant, in the description of the specific processing activity.

4.3. System logs and maintenance

To ensure the operation, security, and maintenance of the website, www.weareonit.com/smb and the relevant technical service providers may record system logs and process technical data, such as IP addresses, the times of requests, and information about the browser or operating system used. This data is processed to the extent necessary for the operation and security of the website and is not retained for longer than is necessary for these purposes, taking into account any legal obligations.

4.4. Location

Personal data is processed at the locations where the data controller and the relevant service providers carry out their activities. The processing location may vary depending on the service used and the data involved.

When personal data is transferred to countries outside the European Economic Area (EEA), this is done in accordance with the provisions of Chapter V of the GDPR. Depending on the circumstances, this may occur, for example, on the basis of an adequacy decision by the European Commission or appropriate safeguards, such as standard contractual clauses.

Data subjects may request additional information from the data controller regarding any international transfers and the applicable safeguards.

4.5. Retention time

Personal data will not be retained for longer than is necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or further processed, taking into account applicable legal obligations and any need to initiate, exercise, or substantiate legal claims.

Therefore, the following principles apply:

  • Personal data processed in connection with a contract will be retained for as long as necessary for the performance and follow-up of the contract and, where justified, for the applicable retention period following the end of the business relationship.
  • Personal data processed on the basis of the controller’s legitimate interests will be retained for as long as necessary to fulfill those interests, taking into account the rights and interests of the data subjects.
  • For specific processing activities, including the processing of job application data, personnel files, and surveillance footage, the retention periods specified in the relevant sections of this privacy statement apply.
  • Personal data may be retained for a longer period if this is necessary to comply with a legal obligation or to initiate, exercise, or support legal claims, provided that the applicable conditions are met.

At the end of the applicable retention period, the personal data will be deleted or, if further retention is necessary for a legitimate purpose and anonymization is sufficient, irreversibly anonymized.

The rights of data subjects, including the right of access, rectification, and erasure, are exercised in accordance with the conditions and exceptions set forth in the GDPR.
