Your data controller

Sorainen offices in Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Belarus (Sorainen) are the joint controllers of your personal data. Contact information for Sorainen offices can be found here.

The roles of Sorainen offices and their relationship with you are detailed in the arrangements between them.

Your Sorainen data protection officer can be contacted at e-mail privacy@sorainen.com.

What data do Sorainen collect and how is it used?

When you apply for the Shared Mission programme, we collect and process your name, surname, mobile number and e-mail address, and any other information that you provide to us which may include or constitute personal data.

We will process this data on the basis of our legitimate interests to effectively manage the Shared Mission programme, to analyse submissions in order to determine which applicants fit the programme’s criteria, and to contact the applicants.

If you do not provide the requested data, we may not be able to analyse your submission for the Shared Mission programme and contact you accordingly.

Who may access your data

Your personal data may be disclosed:

  • to Sorainen employees and lawyers at Sorainen offices in Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Belarus who are in contact with you or who are responsible for marketing;
  • to Sorainen third party service providers, including marketing firms, information technology service providers, auditing firms and others, as far as necessary to manage our marketing communications.

There is no decision by the European Commission to recognise the level of data protection in Belarus as adequate. Therefore, the Sorainen Office in Belarus has access to personal data on the basis of an agreement between Sorainen Belarus and other Sorainen offices. This conforms to the Standard Contractual clauses approved by the European Commission. Control over private data including servers is executed in the territory of EU. You may ask Sorainen to inspect a copy by contacting the Sorainen Data Protection Officer.

How long does Sorainen store data?

We will process your personal data during the period of implementation of the Shared Mission programme and for 3 months thereafter.

  • to require access to your personal data;
  • to require rectification of your personal data;
  • to require erasure of your personal data;
  • to withdraw consent to processing of your personal data, where applicable.

In some cases you may have a right to request a restriction on processing your personal data or to object to processing of your personal data.

You may exercise your rights in line with the requirements of applicable EU and local laws.

If personal data is erased at your request, Sorainen will only retain such copies of the information as are necessary to protect our or third party legitimate interests, comply with governmental orders, resolve disputes, troubleshoot problems, or enforce any agreement you have entered into with Sorainen.
