​

Although the registers are mentioned in these terms of use   as separate entities, they still form an entity that is not always easy to separate. Information from the forms can enter Sunholidays Oy's marketing register. We have broken them down to make the explanation easier to understand.

​

3 Purpose of personal data processing and legal basis for processing

​

​3.1 Customer registers

At Sunholidays Oy, a lot of personal data of customers is processed in different contexts. Our most important customer registers are:

1. Register maintained on the basis of the weekly share register.

2. Marketing customer registers.

​

In addition to the above-mentioned registers, Sunholidays Oy also has the other registers in point 2. The processing of personal data is based on a contract or an article based on the law or on Sunholidays Oy's legitimate interest.

​'

The law regulates the processing and storage of customer data .

Sunholidays Oy's own interest is related to business objectives, such as quality control, development of services, measurement of customer satisfaction, training of personnel and provision of additional services.

 

The benefit granted by law is also made to protect rights and property and to maintain physical and data security. The purpose of personal data in customer registers  is to ensure that the parties act in accordance with the agreement. For example, the fact that the customer receives accommodation or another product or service purchased in accordance with the contract.

​

The purpose of customer registers is also the development of business related to services or shares, for example inventory management and the development of reservation systems, improving and maintaining customer relations, and taking care of the obligations and rights of Sunholidays Oy and the customer.​

Sunholidays Oy also processes personal data in connection with the recording of phone calls negotiations. Personal data can also be processed in other similar or business-related contexts.

The other registers mentioned later can be connected to Sunholidays Oy's customer register and in that connection they form a whole, although the processing of personal data below has taken place through different channels.

​

3.2 Marketing registers and their use

In connection with marketing, the collection of personal data takes place either for the benefit of Sunholidays Oy or the permission obtained based on the customer's consent. In the case of marketing, for Sunholidays Oy's business interests, such as customer or service development, customer satisfaction measurement, personnel training or direct marketing.

Electronic direct marketing always requires the customer's consent, which is always obtained in writing.

​

With regard to electronic direct marketing, permission is required, even if the customer is a customer of Sunholidays Oy on other grounds. Consent is requested in writing and can be revoked at any time. With regard to electronic direct marketing, consent is requested, for example, in connection with an agreed meeting, call or other contact, or after the customer has stayed at the destination, acquires or is about to acquire a share, or in another situation where there is contact between Sunholidays Oy and the customer.

​

Information from customer information systems is also used in electronic and printed letters and similar announcements, such as surveys or raffles that accompany shareholder events. Based on this, personal data from customer information systems can also be used for direct marketing by telephone.

​

We keep a separate register of customers who have banned direct marketing. Our system is synchronized so that the bans are certainly 99.99% correct.​

​

The other registers described below can be linked to Sunholidays Oy's marketing register

(mainly the matters described in the forms section) and together these form a whole, although the processing of personal data is described differently below.

​

3.3 Recording of calls conferences

Calls to our customer service (switchboard, customer service, and other possible phone contacts) can be recorded. The purpose of recording calls is the legitimate interest of  Sunholidays Oy. The purpose of recording the calls is to use the calls to improve the quality of customer service and develop it, for trainings and to ensure the content of the agreement of both parties. Calls recordings are not used for other purposes.

Customer satisfaction surveys, share value evaluation forms or other similar surveys or surveys that improve customer satisfaction, the processing of which is based on the customer's consent and at the same time the customer has the opportunity to give consent to marketing. However, these are always separate permits.

​

4 Data content of the register

4.1 Shareholder and share transactions

​

A shareholder register is kept for shareholders. According to the Housing Joint Stock Company Act, the recipient of the share is entered in the list when the necessary explanation of the ownership right has been received and a certificate of payment of the transfer tax has been received. At Sunholidays Oy, the shareholder's information is kept only as long as he owns the share. 

​

Em. in addition to the information based on the mentioned law, other relevant information can also be collected about the shareholders, but this processing is based on Sunholidays Oy's and the customer's key customer relationship.

​

When a financing transaction is made with a shareholder, the customer must be aware that Sunholidays Oy is only an intermediary for financing, and that the customer's information is provided to the company offering financing. With regard to this data, the financial company acts as the data controller and the data is stored in the company's own systems. 

​

​​

5 Information sources

5.1 Shareholders

​

One source of information is the customer who provides information to Sunholidays Oy. Most of the information is collected from the customer, as a rule, when he is at a presentation or makes an appointment. Sunholidays Oy has legal customer information on the basis of which the appointment has been made.

The customer is invited to a weekly share presentation from Sunholidays Oy's various customer registers.  Customers are invited to a share presentation by phone or email. 

​

The customer can also participate in the presentation after booking an introductory accommodation holiday from Sunholidays Oy. Accomodation holiday includes accommodation and presentation after the holiday. When a customer books a holiday, information is taken from the customer at the time of booking and stored in the register.

​

We can collect and update credit and payment behavior data from Suomen Asiakastieto Oy's register. Regarding share transactions, we always check the credit and payment behavior of the person if we offer the customer financing for share transactions. If the customer acquires a share through the financing service provided by Sunholidays Oy, the financing company may have separate channels through which it collects and processes personal data.

​

5.2 Accommodation customers

Information about those staying during the holiday week is taken when making the accommodation reservation. Information can be collected through different booking channels, which can be Sunholidays Oy's own channels, for example Sunholidays Oy's online service, chat, phone service and email information.

​

5.3 Cookies

Sunholidays Oy collects cookie data from its customers when they visit the online service. The information is used for targeted marketing and service provision.

​

5.4 Online forms and other forms

​

The customer normally fills out the form himself, either online or on a paper form. Information can also be collected on the form by Sunholidays Oy's customer service representative.

​

6 Updating information

We update customers' information according to notifications made by customers. Regarding these, the source of information may be reports made by the person himself or an external actor. The goal is that the external information is correct. To update the data, we use, among other things, information from the population data register. We update services regarding personal data based on information received from providers, authorities and companies (for example, Fonecta and Maistraatti).

​​

7 Data transfers and data transfer

Sunholidays Oy does not publish the personal data it collects and observes the obligation of confidentiality, unless otherwise required by law or legal obligation. 

Sunholidays Oy does not transfer information to the outside, except to such partners who produce a certain service or function of Sunholidays Oy. Sunholidays Oy has entered into data protection agreements with these partners. In data protection agreements, it has been agreed that personal data will be processed in a secure manner and only in writing.

​

Information is not disclosed or transferred outside the EU or the European Economic Area, neither to individuals, companies, nor organizations. The exception, of course, is contracts related to the sector, which are agreed separately.  Sunholidays Oy can hand over information to its partners outside the EEA, but in this case, templates according to EU model contracts will be made for the partner.

​

Marketing acquires information from an external service provider as an additional service. This additional information is not transferred to Sunholidays Oy's own customer register, but remains as information in the service provider's register. Sunholidays Oy hands over personal data to the processor for the implementation of this ancillary service.

​

8 Personal data retention periods

When storing personal data, we follow good practices and Finnish law.

Call and zoom recordings are kept for a maximum of six months from the time of the call.

Information from other forms is stored as long as it is necessary for the purpose of use.
