7. The rights of a data subject
Data subjects shall have the right to inspect any personal data on them stored in the registry and request the controller to rectify or complete any inaccurate or incomplete data.

Data subjects shall have the right to have any personal data on them removed from the registry. However, this shall not apply to such personal data that are necessary for performing the purposes of this privacy policy statement as defined by the controller or personal data the storage of which is required by law.

Data subjects shall have the right to object or restrict the processing of their personal data by the controller if the data subject considers this to violate the data protection law or occur without the authorisation to process certain personal data.

Data subjects shall have the right to receive the personal data submitted to the controller in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. Data subjects shall have the right to transfer these data to another controller if the legal basis of the processing of personal data is a consent or an agreement and the data are processed automatically.

The controller may outsource the processing of personal data to a third party in part, in which case we shall enter into an agreement that guarantees that the processing of personal data is performed appropriately and in compliance with the current data protection law.

Kopiosto has entered into agreements with certain service providers that contain clauses concerning the processing of personal data on behalf of Kopiosto. Such agreements are typically related to software development, maintenance, server and ICT support services, for instance.

Access to the personal data in the registry is restricted to only those employees and administrators who require access due to their tasks. Using the systems requires at least entering a personal user ID and password. The employees of the controller shall be bound by a commitment to observe confidentiality concerning the personal data. The systems are located in locked premises within the European Economic Area that are inaccessible for unauthorised persons.
