3. Principles relating to processing of personal data

Personal data are processed on the basis of strict principles, which give absolute priority to the protection and security of data, as well as to the rights of the data subject.

3.1 Lawfulness and transparency

The data are processed in a lawful and fair manner. The data subject will be informed of the planned processing and handling of the data when the data are collected. Data subjects are informed about the following points, at least:

  • the data controller
  • purpose of data processing
  • the legal basis for processing

Please email boljevic@tecno.at or Stojanovic@tecno.at if you require additional information.

3.2 Purpose limitation

The data are collected and processed for specified, explicit and legitimate purposes. The data will not be processed in a manner that is incompatible with these purposes.

3.3 Data minimisation

Only those data that are absolutely necessary for the purposes stated are collected and processed. Only personal data that have been rendered anonymous will be processed if the purpose can be achieved and this does not involve a disproportionate effort.

3.4 Storage limitation and erasure

Personal data will be erased from the moment the original purpose of collection no longer applies and erasure is not precluded by legal retention periods.

If there are compelling legitimate interests in the data in specific cases, then retention shall continue until the compelling legitimate interest has been legally clarified.

3.5 Data security

Personal data are subject to data secrecy. The data must be treated confidentially and protected by appropriate organisational and technical measures against unauthorised access, unlawful manipulation or disclosure and loss or destruction.

3.6 Accuracy

Personal data must be kept accurate, complete and up to date. Appropriate measures are taken to correct outdated, incorrect or incomplete data.

4. Obligation of data secrecy

All employees of Tecno Office Consult GmbH are contractually bound to secrecy. Moreover, they are regularly advised and trained in the secure handling of personal and other critical data.

5. Data security

The protection of confidentiality, availability and integrity of data is a key responsibility of Tecno Office Consult GmbH. This applies equally to trade secrets, client data, personal data and other critical international data. To this end, state-of-the-art technical and organisational security measures which are based on internationally recognised best practices and safety standards are established and continuously enhanced.

6. Data protection officer

Tecno Office Consult GmbH is not required to appoint a data protection officer since Article 37(1) GDPR [EU’s General Data Protection Regulation] does not apply. In view of the importance of data protection, Tecno Office Consult GmbH has appointed a data protection coordinator on a voluntary basis. The latter deals with data protection issues within the Group and is available as a point of contact to data subjects and the data protection authority.

Contact details of the coordinator:

Danijela Boljevic or Kristina Stojanovic.

7. Rights of the data subject

Any data subject whose personal data are processed by Tecno Office Consult GmbH may obtain information on their rights at any time by sending an email to office@tecno.at or Stojanovic@tecno.at.

7.1. Information

Data subjects may request information on which personal data concerning them are processed and what the purpose is of this processing at any time.

7.2 Rectification

Data subjects have the right to request the immediate rectification of their personal data.

7.3 Restriction

Data subjects have the right to restriction of processing if the accuracy of their data is contested, if the processing is irregular, if the data are no longer required for the processing or if they have objected to the processing.

7.4 Withdrawal

Data subjects have the right to object to the processing of their personal data at any time.

7.5 Portability

Data subjects have the right to receive personal data they have provided to Tecno Office Consult GmbH in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. They also have the right to request the transmission of those data to another controller if technically feasible. The portability applies only to personal data processed by automated means.

7.6 Erasure and right to be forgotten

Data subjects have the right to request the immediate erasure of personal data concerning them if the legal basis for processing the data is absent or no longer applicable, if the data processing is opposed or if the data processing is unlawful and no statutory retention periods preclude erasure. The priority of data security is also absolute with regard to the rights of the data subject, which is why the assertion of a data subject’s rights is only possible after the data subject has been identified beyond doubt. Data subjects also have the right to lodge a complaint with the data protection authority at any time.

8. Data transfers

Personal data will only be transferred to recipients outside the company or in EU third countries in accordance with the applicable laws and on a lawful basis, as well as in compliance with the highest level of confidentiality and data security. With regard to data processing, Tecno Office Consult GmbH engages various processors. All processors are contractually bound by a processor agreement to comply with the legally applicable data protection regulations.

9. Continuous control and improvement

The continuous improvement of quality and processes is extremely important to Tecno Office Consult GmbH. Compliance with data protection guidelines and applicable legislation, as well as the effectiveness of data protection and data security measures are continuously assessed and improved upon so as to ensure that data protection measures are executed in the best possible manner.
