Principles for personal data processing

Principles for personal data processing

1. General provisions

These Principles for Personal Data Protection set out how and for what purpose the company SATUM CZECH s.r.o. obtains, stores and further processes your personal data in the course of its activity as an insurance intermediary, i.e. in connection with mediating the conclusion of insurance contracts with insurance companies. We place great emphasis on personal data protection. We treat the personal data we process as confidential, we maintain that confidentiality, we emphasize the security of data processing, the choice of contractual partners, and strict adherence to the statutory rules of processing.

The processing of personal data is an essential part and precondition for the distribution of insurance (provision or mediation of insurance). It is our responsibility to distribute insurance with professional care, and we process your personal data so that we can offer you a proposal for insurance and provide recommendations based on your requirements, goals and needs.

As part of our obligations, pursuant to Section 80 (7) of Act No. 170/2018 Coll., on Insurance and Reinsurance Distribution, as amended (hereinafter referred to as the “Act”), we are obliged to process Personal Data of natural persons involved in the origin and changes of insurance distributed by it, including their birth certificate numbers.

The purpose of these Principles for Personal Data Protection is to inform you how and why we collect and process your personal data, about your rights and how you can exercise them, and what measures we have taken to protect your personal data and to exercise your rights.

Personal data is any information regarding an identified or identifiable natural person, i.e. about you, if you are a natural person, and/or your employees and/or your family members or other natural persons, where you provide us with this information (hereinafter referred to as “Personal Data”). Health data is among the so-called special categories of Personal Data, sometimes also referred to as “sensitive” Personal Data.

2. The position of the company SATUM CZECH s.r.o.

The company SATUM CZECH s.r.o., registered office Ostrava, Moravská Ostrava, Porážková 1424/20, postcode 702 00, company identification number 253 73 951, registered in the Commercial Register maintained by the Regional Court in Ostrava in Section C, File 16189 (hereinafter referred to as the “independent broker”, “data administrator” or “we”), processes your Personal Data in connection with the insurance intermediation between you and the insurer/insurance company and other activities that are related to the exercise of rights and obligations under such insurance contract, including the exercise of insurance rights.

In those cases where we address people interested in insurance, where we submit proposals for negotiating insurance and perform preparatory work aimed at arranging insurance, we are usually in the position of Personal Data administrator. Where we mediate insurance on behalf of the insurer or provide assistance in administering insurance and exercising insurance rights, we are in the position of Personal Data processor. In such case, the Personal Data administrator is then our partner insurance company, for which and on whose authority we carry out these activities, and to which we transfer your Personal Data.

3. Personal Data Protection Officer

The Data Administrator has appointed a Personal Data Protection Officer. The Personal Data Protection Officer’s contact information:
Name of the officer:          Ing. Ivona Moravcová
phone:             +420 595 132 309
email:            osobniudaje@satum.cz

4. Purpose of the processing

When performing insurance mediation, we process Personal Data in order to:

(i) offer the option of negotiating, modifying or terminating insurance, including making insurance comparisons,

(ii) submit proposals for the negotiation, modification or termination of insurance,

(iii) carry out other preparatory work for the negotiation, modification or termination of insurance, including the provision of a recommendation leading to the conclusion, modification or termination of insurance,

(iv) arrange or change insurance or assist in the administration of insurance and in the exercise of insurance rights,

(v) fulfil the obligations imposed us by legislation in the area of the distribution of insurance or provisions regarding measures against money laundering (identifying and checking the client pursuant to Act No. 253/2008 Coll., on Certain Measures against the Legalization of Proceeds from Crime and Financing of Terrorism, as amended),

(vi) send business communications such as information about offerings we mediate of insurance products on the market, or information about events we hold (hereinafter collectively referred to as “marketing purposes”), provided you have given us permission to use your contact information for these purposes or to the extent we are authorized to do so under the applicable law (e.g. Act 480/2004 Coll., on Certain Services of an Information Company).

Because of your status as a party interested in insurance for yourself and/or your employees and/or your family members, we need to know Personal Data so that we can mediate insurance and perform the activities under (i) to (v) above in relation to you, your employees, family members and/or the third parties whose Personal Data you provide to us. Conversely, the possible granting of consent to process Personal Data for marketing purposes under (vi) is entirely voluntary, and is not a prerequisite for providing our brokerage services, and you may revoke your consent to these purposes at any time.

5. Legal basis of processing

Pursuant to Section 80 (7) of the Act, in the capacity of an insurance intermediary in the distribution of insurance, we are obliged to process Personal Data relating to natural persons involved in the origin and changes of the distributed insurance, including their birth certificate numbers.

The above obligation applies when acting in relation to you as an insurance broker, insurance agent or any other type of intermediary under Section 12 of the Act and processing your Personal Data.

In order to comply with your request to mediate an insurance contract with an insurance company, we also occasionally process Personal Data of your employees, family members and/or other natural persons that we have obtained from you. Regardless of whether we are in relation to you as an insurance broker, agent or any other intermediary (see above), we only process such Personal Data for the purpose and to the extent necessary to mediate insurance for the benefit of the natural persons whose Personal Data has been provided to us.

Regardless of whether we are in relation to you as an insurance broker, agent or any other intermediary (see above), we also process Personal Data to comply with other legal obligations beyond the Act in accordance with applicable legal provisions (e.g. in relation to contact details for billing purposes in accordance with accounting and tax regulations, anti-money laundering regulations, etc.), in accordance with applicable rules and instructions issued by the Czech National Bank and, where applicable, based on our legitimate interest as a data controller or the legitimate interest of the insurer/insurance company consisting in the determination, protection and performance of our legal claims or claims of the insurer/insurance company. Such processing may also take place after the termination of the contract (between you and us, or between you and the insurer/insurance company).

We also process Personal Data of our clients, partners and beneficiaries, or their employees and other authorized persons within our client portal available at www.satum.cz, if they decide to use this service (access to the portal). In particular, clients, partners and beneficiaries can use this portal to manage the insurance we have provided for them or for their benefit, including insurance claims reporting. We process Personal Data within the portal for the above-mentioned purposes of providing the portal service within the scope and to the extent of our legal obligation pursuant to Section 80 (7) of the Act.

6. Scope of the data processed, its source and processing time

We process your Personal Data to the extent you provide us with it through filled-in questionnaires, personal communication, by telephone or electronically, depending on the type of insurance you are interested in, and to the extent necessary to secure the performance of insurance contracts or the administration of related claims. We, therefore, obtain Personal Data directly from you and from persons who take out insurance to your benefit, as well as from insurance companies and other partners and persons who provide us with data related to your insurance or for whom we verify this data. The specific type and scope of Personal Data always depend on the purposes of processing, such as the type of insurance sought or negotiated, or the type of damage occurrence. This includes, in particular, the following:

Identification and contact information

- name, surname and title, birth certificate number (or date and place of birth, if no birth certificate number has been assigned to you), correspondence address, permanent residence address, nationality and country of birth, sex, telephone number (fax number), e-mail , occupational position, salary, height and weight, identity card and driving license data

- card number, issuing authority, the period of validity of the card, place of birth;

health data and genetic data, including in particular your predisposition to various diseases and illnesses if you are interested in getting insured, securing the performance of insurance contracts or administering the related claims for which it is necessary to assess this data, where you voluntarily submit this data to us,

data from a purchase contract, lease agreement, rental agreement, deed of gift, credit agreements, land register data, your real estate and household data (e.g. real estate area, year of property approval, number of household members), data on accounting, personal property, your car (e.g. a copy of the technical card, above-standard equipment of the vehicle, security for the vehicle, number of km travelled), data from the employment contract, work contract, contract for work, if you are interested in getting insurance, ensuring performance of insurance contracts or administering the related claims for which it is necessary to assess this data, where you voluntarily submit this data to us,

We will process your Personal Data for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes stated in Article 4 above. We will always process Personal Data for the duration of the insurance contract, as a minimum, and keep it until the end of the tenth calendar year from its termination or until the end of the tenth calendar year from the end of the insurance period. If no insurance contract is concluded, we will keep the Personal Data until the end of the following calendar year after the last communication with you in accordance with Section 80 (4) of the Act.

If the insurance contract has already been terminated, we will continue to process Personal Data only if it is necessary to comply with a statutory obligation for a period of time determined by law (such as the abovementioned accounting or anti-money laundering regulations) or if the Czech National Bank rules and instructions require it, or authorize us to do so (such as the obligation to ensure the storage of documentation produced in connection with mediating insurance products for a period of time which takes into account the running of limitation periods, in order to prove the exertion of professional care). Some Personal Data may also be retained based on our legitimate interests consisting in identifying, protecting and enforcing our legal claims, for the duration of limitation periods, claims arising from or relating to our mediation activities, extended by one year with a view to protecting our legal claims. In the event of judicial, administrative or other proceedings, we will process Personal Data to the extent necessary for the duration of such proceedings.

If you gave your consent to the processing of your Personal Data and then revoked it, we will cease processing your Personal Data for the purposes for which the consent was granted; such revocation of consent does not affect the legality of prior processing based on such consent (i.e. prior to its revocation) or the lawfulness of the processing of Personal Data on legal grounds other than consent (e.g. legitimate interest or fulfilment of a legal obligation). See also paragraph 5.1 above.

7. Sharing and Transfer of Personal Data

We may share Personal Data collected by the methods described above with third parties that distribute insurance by providing or arranging insurance or provide certain services related to insurance and reinsurance distribution, administrative support or use of software resources. These persons are thus in the position of administrators or processors of Personal Data.

Therefore, we can provide your Personal Data to, or share it with, the following recipients, who will usually be in the position of administrators:

(i)           partner insurers/insurance companies, a list of whom will be provided upon request;

(ii)          state authorities or other third parties in the performance of statutory obligations or if necessary for the exercise of our rights (e.g. the Czech National Bank, courts, prosecuting authorities, tax administrators, etc.).

We may further share your Personal Data with the following recipients, who are in the position of processors:

(i)           our SATUM Group subsidiary companies or affiliated companies, especially for the purposes of administrative support;

(ii)          suppliers of our IT systems, who may have access to your Personal Data in certain cases;

(iii)         subordinate insurance intermediaries, including intermediaries outside the European Union, if you wish to arrange insurance with an insurer outside the European Union;

(iv)         with external legal counsels, if this is necessary for the exercise of our rights or for the protection of our legitimate interests.

We have entered into Personal Data processing agreements with Personal Data processors pursuant to the preceding paragraph that guarantee at least the same level of protection of your Personal Data as these Principles for Personal Data Protection.

The list of current processors of your Personal Data will be sent to you on request.

8. Method of processing and securing data

We process your Personal Data manually and in an automated manner in information systems. We have introduced and maintain the necessary technical and organizational measures, internal audits and information security processes in line with best business practice corresponding to the potential risk to data subjects. At the same time, we take into account the state of technological development in order to protect Personal Data from accidental loss, destruction, alteration, unauthorized disclosure or access. These measures may include, inter alia, the adoption of reasonable steps to ensure the liability of employees and other persons performing brokering activities for an insurance intermediary who has access to Personal Data, training staff, regular backups, data recovery procedures and incident management, software protection of equipment for storing Personal Data, etc.

9. Your rights

If you exercise any of your rights under this Article or the applicable laws, then information regarding the measures taken, or the deletion of your Personal Data, or processing of restrictions in accordance with your request will be given to every recipient to whom such data has been provided under these Principles for Personal Data Protection, provided such communication is possible and/or will not require undue effort.

9.5. Restrictions on processing

If you ask us to limit the processing of your Personal Data, for example, should you question the accuracy, legality or our need to process your Personal Data, we will limit the processing of your Personal Data to the minimum required (storage) and, if applicable, will process it only to determine, exercise or justify legal claims, or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person, or for other limited reasons prescribed by applicable law. If the restrictions are lifted, and we continue to process your Personal Data, we will inform you without undue delay.

9.8 Objections against processing

You have the right to object at any time to the processing of Personal Data that is processed based on our legitimate interest.
