2. Purpose and legal basis for processing personal data

Partner representatives Communications Performance of a contract
Marketing Legitimate interest
Users of 24 Center Partner application Identification Performance of a contract
Communications Performance of a contract
Provision of the 24 Partner Application service Consent, performance of a contract
Invoicing Performance of a contract
What does ‘legitimate interest’ mean?
 
The collection and processing of all personal data requires a so-called basis on which the processing is lawful. A ’legitimate interest’ is one such basis. Other processing criteria include, for example, consent and performance of a contract.
 
Processing in the legitimate interest is lawful if, and only if, the fundamental rights and freedoms of the person and their protection are not more important than the legitimate interest of the party conducting the processing (in this case us).
What does ‘performance of a contract’ mean?

Contractual processing is lawful if the data subject is a party to a contract for the performance of which the processing of his or her personal data is necessary. The processing is limited to the personal data necessary for the performance of the contract. 
What does ‘consent’ mean?

Consent-based processing is lawful if the data subject has given his or her consent to the processing of his or her personal data for one or more purposes. For example, the data subject may give his or her consent by ticking the box on a website or an application. It must be possible to withdraw consent as easily as it could have been given. Consent must be explicit and freely given.
What does a ‘legal obligation’ mean?

Compliance with the controller’s legal obligations may require the controller to process personal data.

*) Details on location data

24 Center Partner Application only collects location data if the user has given his/her consent to it by opting in. 
 
Location based services determine the user’s location using interfaces provided by the user’s device, such as GPS. Device location can be determined with these services both while using the application and while the application is in the background or closed.
 
The technical details on the application’s geolocation features are publicly available at https://github.com/transistorsoft/react-native-background-geolocation/wiki/Philosophy-of-Operation
 
24 Center Partner Application is an application for building maintenance services companies partnered with 24 Center, that informs the user of nearby customers in need of maintenance services by providing notifications in the application. With the help of the application, the user can accept work tasks quickly and easily and to manage work tasks in execution. The distance between the location of the work task and the user’s location affects whether the user receives a notification of the new work task appearing nearby. 
 
The application collects and processes location data from the device of the user so that it can target notifications about new work tasks based on the location of the user also when the application is closed. Many of the work tasks are urgent and require quick reaction from the user in order to provide help to customers and to ensure that the user gets to choose a suitable work task. Location sharing must be turned on by the user if the user wants to receive notifications of work offers also based on their own location (and not just based on the location of their office) and filter notifications based on distance. Background location enables the user to receive suitable work tasks even while the application is closed without a need to periodically manually update the list of available work tasks within the application.
 
A commission will be paid to the executor of a work task according to the contract between 24 Center and the executor.
 
24 Center Oy does not share location data from the 24 Center Partner application with any third parties.

Privacy Shield and Sample Clauses

However, regardless of the data centers we choose in Europe, it is possible that we or the service providers used by us may, in some circumstances, transfer your information outside the EU / EEA. This can happen, for example, if data is duplicated outside the EU / EEA to the United States so that your data is secure even in the event of a failure of the main servers.

We will ensure that the necessary measures are taken to prevent the transfer of your personal data to a party outside the EU or the EEA who does not comply with the legal requirements for the processing of personal data. 
 
The European Commission has accepted the use of model contract clauses to ensure adequate protection of data transferred outside the EEA. Whenare added to the between the parties to the data transfer standard contract clauses agreement, the personal data will be considered protected when transferred outside the EEA or the United Kingdom to countries where the adequacy decision does not apply. We use these model contract clauses in data transfer. 
 
In addition, we adhere to the principles of the EU-US and Switzerland-US Privacy Shield Frameworks, without relying on these principles as a legal basis for transfers of personal data, taking into account the ruling of the European Court of Justice in Schrems II case C-311/18.
