If necessary, we disclose personal data to parties that are entitled to receive them, such as the competent authorities.

Our IT service providers store and process personal data in accordance with our instructions for no other purposes than those defined by us and only on our behalf.

9. RIGHTS OF THE DATA SUBJECT: How can you affect the processing of your personal data?

The data protection legislation grants you a number of rights, which are described below. These rights enforce your privacy and provide you with the opportunity to control the processing of your own personal data.

Without undue delay and no later than in two months of you contacting us, we will inform you of the measures we have taken to fulfil your request to exercise your rights.

If you submit several requests or your request is particularly complex, we may extend the response time by no more than two months, as necessary. We will inform you separately of any such delay.

You can submit a request pertaining to your rights, as described in the Section ”Right to access data”, by post, email or telephone.

You have the right to receive confirmation from us on whether or not we are processing your personal data. In addition to this, you have the right to access personal data on yourself and the right to receive the information on the processing of personal data, as specified in the GDPR.

When you exercise your right to access the data, we will provide you with a copy of the personal data we are processing. If you present the request electronically, we will deliver the information in a commonly-used electronic format, unless you specifically request another method of delivery, which we can reasonably arrange.

We may charge a reasonable fee, based on administrative costs, if you request multiple copies or submit repeated requests.

We cannot provide you with information that could reveal trade secrets or infringe upon the rights or freedoms of another person. For example, we cannot disclose the personal data of other persons regardless of your request.

10.1. Right to rectification

You have the right to request us to correct any inaccurate and erroneous information on you without undue delay. In addition to this, you are entitled to have incomplete personal data supplemented by providing us with a supplementary statement.

10.2. Right to erasure

You have the right to request us to erase personal data concerning you without undue delay if:

• your personal data are no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed (for example your personal data are no longer needed for customer management, accounting related to ticket sales or other similar purposes);

• you object to the processing on special grounds related to your personal situation, and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing;

• you object to the processing of your personal data for direct marketing purposes and there are no other legal grounds for the processing;

• we have processed your personal data unlawfully; or

• your personal data must be erased for compliance with a legal obligation applicable to us.

However, you do not have the right to your personal data being erased if, and to the extent which, their processing is based on our legal obligation or is necessary in order to compile, present or defend a legal claim.

10.3. Right to restriction of processing

You have the right to have us restrict the processing of your personal data in such a way that, in addition to storing the data, we may only process them with your express consent or the establishment, exercise or defence of a legal claim or the protection of the rights of another person if:

• you contest the accuracy of the personal data, in which case processing is restricted for a period enabling us to verify the accuracy of the data;

• the processing of your personal data is unlawful and you oppose the erasure of your personal data and request the restriction of their use instead;

• we no longer need your personal data for the processing purposes described in Section 6 of this policy, but they are required by the data subject for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims;

• you have objected to processing on special grounds based on your personal situation, pending the verification of whether the legitimate grounds of the controller override those of your objection.

10.4. Right to data portability

Insofar as you have submitted your personal data to us via a form available in our online service, for example, you have the right to receive the data in a structured, commonly-used and machine-readable format and to transmit those data to another controller to the extent that we have processed your personal data automatically and based on your consent (as regards electronic direct marketing, for example) or the processing of your personal data is necessary for the implementation of an agreement, such as the online shop user agreement.

The right to data portability is limited to procedures that do not adversely affect the rights or freedoms of other persons. You do not have the right to transfer data from one system to another if the personal data are being processed based on our legitimate interest.

You have the right to submit a complaint to a supervisory authority (in Finland, the Data Security Ombudsman) if you find that your rights established in the applicable data protection legislation and specifically the GDPR have been infringed upon.

11. HOW DO WE ENSURE THE SAFETY OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA?

The proper protection of personal data is extremely important to us. We collect the information into databases secured with firewalls, passwords and other technical means. The databases and their backups are located in locked and guarded facilities, and the information can only be accessed by certain people designated in advance.

Access to the personal data requires a user ID granted by the main user of the customer database. The main user also defines the access level granted to a user. Furthermore, we have ensured by contractual means that any partners processing personal data on our behalf are also committed to the protection of personal data with regard to the actions of their own employees.
