2. What data do we process?

Camera surveillance recordings contain information about people moving in the camera surveillance area. In addition to the video, the date and time of events are recorded.

The personal data collected through camera surveillance are processed in order to ensure order and safety and to investigate suspected or known cases of crime, misconduct, damage or accident in Matkahuolto premises. Camera surveillance is also used to monitor the production process and to track down lost parcels. We inform people of camera surveillance with signs in the premises and areas where the cameras are located.

The use of camera surveillance is based on the legitimate interest of Matkahuolto or a third party. The legitimate interest in carrying out camera surveillance is, in particular, related to one of the following:

  • Ensuring the safety of properties as well as customers, employees and other persons visiting the premises, as well as public safety

  • Safeguarding the legal rights of customers, employees and other persons visiting the premises

  • Ensuring public order

  • Protection of Matkahuolto’s property

4. Regular sources of data

Recording surveillance cameras are used in the following Matkahuolto’s own service outlets: Helsinki, Jyväskylä, Lahti, Mikkeli, Pori, Tampere, Turku and Vantaa.

With the help of camera surveillance, we collect and store information at Matkahuolto outlets where camera surveillance is currently in use.

We inform people of camera surveillance with signs at Matkahuolto outlets where camera surveillance is used. Camera surveillance signs are displayed in the premises and areas where the cameras are located.

9. Rights of data subjects

The EU General Data Protection Regulation guarantees data subjects a number of rights that you can exercise to determine how your personal data is processed. You may exercise the following rights in respect of Matkahuolto insofar as Matkahuolto serves as the controller of your personal data.

  • Right of access: The data subject has the right to receive a confirmation from Matkahuolto as to whether Matkahuolto processes his or her personal data and in order to access such data. Matkahuolto may request the data subject to formulate his or her request in more detail regarding the procedure for the delivery of the data, etc.

  • Right to correct personal data: The data subject has the right to correct any errors in the personal data processed by Matkahuolto or complete any incomplete data.

Matkahuolto will take prompt action in response to the data subject’s request and will provide the data subject with information on the exercise of rights normally within one month of receipt of the request.
