Data protection and the processing of personal data
Processing of your data
As a joint controller with the Centre for Development and Administration for ELY Centres and TE Offices (KEHA Centre), we are responsible for ensuring the rights of our local government pilot clients, as specified in the General Data Protection Regulation. These rights include, for example, the right to inspect one’s own data or to have incorrect data rectified.
The joint responsibility of the employment services and the KEHA Centre is based on legislation, which specifies that the KEHA Centre is responsible for duties related to the national customer information systems (E-Services and URA system) and their data security, while the employment services are responsible for other duties related to the implementation of the data subjects’ rights. Clients of the employment services can enforce their data protection rights equally in relation to both data controllers.
