Data protection rights

You can request the Office of the Intelligence Ombudsman to fulfil the following data protection rights.

Right to obtain information on the processing of personal data

You have the right to know for what purposes and by which methods we process your personal data.
The aim of this description of our data protection policies is to provide a comprehensive picture of the processing of personal data in our operations. If some aspect of our processing of personal data remains unclear, however, the description has failed in its purpose. In such cases, you are welcome to ask us for further details.

Right of access

You have the right to know whether or not we are processing personal data that concern you. If we are, you have the right to obtain a copy of this data unless we have a legal basis for refusing to fulfil this right.

Right to rectification

If the personal data we are processing is inaccurate, you can request us to rectify such data that concerns you.
If we rectify data on the basis of your request, we are obligated to notify all parties to whom we have previously disclosed your data of the rectification where viable.
More information on the right to rectification (tietosuoja.fi).

Right to restriction of processing

If you consider the data that we are processing to be inaccurate or the processing to be unlawful, or you have objected to the processing of your data, you can request us to restrict the processing of your data.
In such cases, we are only allowed to process your data

with your consent
if we need the data for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims
for the public interest or
in order to safeguard the rights of another person.

If we restrict the processing of data on the basis of your request, we are obligated to notify all parties to whom we have previously disclosed your data of the restriction where viable.

You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data by us. You can exercise this right at any time on grounds relating to your particular situation.

The Office of the Intelligence Ombudsman does not make decisions based on automated processing. Neither does the Office create profiles on the basis of the personal data it processes.
