Data transfer outside the EU and EEA 

Kierrätyskeskus strives to implement services and process personal data using operators and services located in the EU or EEA area.

However, in some cases, the services may also use actors, services and servers located elsewhere, and in this case your personal data may be transferred between different countries. In this case, Kierrätyskeskus ensures an adequate level of personal data protection.

Principles of registry protection 

In information systems, information security is ensured by technical and organisational measures, such as restricting access rights, firewalls, data protection software, an active network monitoring system and making use of encryption technologies.

Manually recorded data is kept in locked rooms, to which only relevant persons have access into. In connection with the processing of personal data, unnecessary personal data is deleted through a shredder or security paper containers.

Personal data retention period

Personal data is stored only as long as it is necessary, e.g. for the duration of the customer relationship. We consider the customer relationship ended 36 months after the last customer transaction, such as a purchase transaction at any Kierrätyskeskus store. After this, we delete all personal data from our systems, unless legislation requires a longer storage period.
