Tallinn University of Technology Internship Portal is committed to protecting the privacy of visitors and users of the website. Accordingly, we have prepared this privacy policy principles regarding the collection, use, disclosure, transfer and storage of personal data. Our activities on the Internet comply with all relevant activities and relevant European Union legislation and the laws of the Republic of Estonia. Take the time to familiarize yourself with our privacy principles.
Collection and use of personal data
We are the sole owners of the information collected on the Tallinn University of Technology Internship Portal. We only have access to the collected information that you voluntarily provide to us by email or other direct contact. We do not sell or rent this information. We use information related to you to respond to the question you contacted us about. We do not share information related to you with third parties outside our organization, unless it is necessary to fulfill your request. We may contact you by email in the future to inform you about offers or services or changes to these privacy terms, unless you have expressed a desire not to do so.
Collection of other data
We also collect non-personal data – data that cannot be directly linked to a specific individual (gender, age, language preference, location). We may also collect data about the activities of the website visitor on our website. This data is aggregated and used to provide more useful information to website visitors and to learn which parts of the website, products and services are of most interest. Aggregated data is referred to as non-personal data in this privacy policy.
Use and retention of data
We can use the personal data we collect to inform website visitors about news, promotions and upcoming opportunities. A website visitor who does not wish to be on our newsletter list or receive notifications about packages that may interest them can remove themselves from the target group of recipients at any time. We use the collected personal data to fulfill our obligations to the website visitor. By agreeing to the terms of the privacy policy, the website visitor gives us consent to the automated processing of their data. You can always withdraw your consent via our website or by making a written reproducible application. The application or withdrawal of consent has no retroactive effect. To delete personal data, you must contact the website’s technical support by e-mail. The deletion request will be responded to no later than within a month and the data deletion period will be specified.
In order to better serve the website visitor, we may disclose information about individual users to a third party that provides services to the online store and has contractually committed to keeping the shared information confidential. A third party is, for example, our partners. We retain the personal data of the website visitor until the termination of the provision of the service and offers. Collected data that is required to be retained pursuant to legislation (e.g. accounting data) is subject to the requirements set out in legislation.
Data protection and security
Our website takes all precautions (including administrative, technical and physical measures) to protect the personal data of website visitors. Access to change and process data is only available to authorized persons. Website visitors have the right to demand the termination of the processing of their data, information about the use of the data and the transfer of data to themselves or a third party in a commonly used format. In order to prevent misuse of website visitors’ data and rights, requests are allowed only in a form where the applicant’s identity is identifiable (digitally signed or personally signed at a representative office). We have the right to respond to such requests within 30 days. All data obtained during the visit to the website is treated as confidential information.
Security and access to personal data
Personal data is stored on Zone Media OÜ servers located in a Member State of the European Union or a country that is a party to the European Economic Area. Data may be transferred to countries whose level of data protection has been assessed by the European Commission as adequate and to US companies that have joined the Privacy Shield framework. Our employees have access to personal data, who can access it in order to resolve technical issues related to the use of the website and provide technical support to website visitors. Our website implements appropriate physical, organizational and information technology security measures to protect personal data against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration or unauthorized access and disclosure. Personal data is transferred to authorized processors (e.g. transport service providers and data hosting) on the basis of contracts concluded with authorized processors. Authorized processors are obliged to ensure appropriate safeguards when processing personal data.
