rekisteriseloste

Rekisteriseloste, also known as a data protection notice or privacy notice, is a document required by data protection laws in many jurisdictions, including the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Its purpose is to inform individuals about how their personal data is being collected, used, and protected by an organization.

A rekisteriseloste typically includes the following information:

1. The identity and contact details of the data controller (the organization responsible for the data).

2. The purposes for which the data is being collected and processed.

3. The legal basis for the data processing.

4. The categories of personal data being collected.

5. The recipients or categories of recipients of the data.

6. The retention period for the data.

7. The rights of individuals regarding their data, such as the right to access, rectify, or erase their data.

8. The existence of automated decision-making processes, including profiling, and their potential impact on individuals.

9. The data protection officer's contact details, if applicable.

10. The data controller's policy on data breaches.

Organizations must ensure that their rekisteriseloste is clear, concise, and easily accessible to individuals. It should be written in plain language and avoid legal jargon. Regular updates to the rekisteriseloste are necessary to reflect changes in data processing activities or legal requirements.
