    The purpose of the handling of personal information:

    Our operations are based on lawful business operations, and thus we also comply with the EU regulation on the storage of personal information – in brief, this is the following six points:

    • The information that we store about a person is lawful, reasonable and transparent in terms of its handling. This means that you can have access to your information at any time.
    • The information is limited to the purpose of use – for example, information that we collect about people is limited to only a particular usage purpose. We will not pass on your information to external parties unless there is an appropriate reason for doing so.
    • We will minimise the information we store – we will only store what is necessary.
    • We will seek to keep our information accurate.
    • We will limit the storage of information – a usage period is defined for the information, after which it is deleted, either automatically or as a matter of routine, unless there is a legally-grounded reason to keep it.
    • We store intact and reliable information, secured through back-up copies, for example.

    We collect and store information based on customer relationships or associated with business operations, on possible new customers. The principal purposes for the usage of information are: marketing, reporting, production of services, customer communications, the planning and targeting of marketing, analysis, development of customer service, the development of the service and business, as well as for other comparable usage purposes. ICT Direct Finland Oy uses personal information for distance selling and direct marketing purposes in the ways permitted by the Personal Data Act. The collection of the information of potential new customers is based on the business operations and we collect the information ourselves or buy them from a third-party provider.
