  • Access information: The right to obtain data about personal information and request access to personal data that Luuppi processes related to you.
  • Correct information: The data subject can change their information directly from Luuppi's website through their profile.
  • Erase information and be forgotten: Luuppi is obligated to retain information as long as the membership in the association continues. Luuppi may ask the requester to prove their identity if necessary.
  • Restrict processing of information: The data subject can request the restriction of processing of their data so that it is processed only with the consent of the data subject. This does not apply to data storage.
  • Transfer data from one system to another: The data subject can request that Luuppi transfer the stored information to another controller.
  • Object to the processing of information: The data subject can, for personal and specific reasons, object to the processing of their data. This does not apply in situations where Luuppi can demonstrate that there is a significant and justified reason for processing the data.
  • Not be subject to automated decision-making: Luuppi does not use information for automated decision-making or profiling.

The purposes and legal bases for processing personal data in Luuppi ry are diverse, covering membership management, event registrations, product sales, and much more. The legal bases vary from contract execution to consent and legal obligations. Data is used for event registrations, maintaining the member directory, identifying online service users, member communications, contacts related to event participation, and orders for products and services. Additionally, data is used for advocacy and planning activities, equipment and clothing lending services. Processing personal data enables communication targeted at Luuppi members, organizing events, and offering services.

Order History Data

To organize events and sell products for order, such as overalls, we need to collect data about orders and additional order details. In some cases, we may need additional details beyond the purchased product or event for the order.

  • Event registrations
  • Purchased products

Data Disclosures and Transfers Outside the EU/EEA

Data is not disclosed to third parties, unless it concerns a service provider processing personal data on Luuppi's behalf (a data processor) with whom a data processing agreement compliant with the GDPR has been made.

Luuppi uses the Microsoft Entra ID service for user account management and authentication (logging into the web service). In this context, the user's name and email address are transferred to Microsoft, which acts as a data processor on Luuppi's behalf.

Microsoft may also process data outside the European Economic Area. In such cases, the transfer is based on the European Commission's adequacy decision (EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework) or the standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission, as well as Microsoft's EU Data Boundary commitment, under which data from EU-area customers is primarily kept within the EU. More information on Microsoft's privacy practices.

Luuppi uses the Stripe service for payment processing. In this context, the user's email address and information related to the order are transferred to Stripe, which acts as a data processor on Luuppi's behalf. Stripe processes and stores payment card details; Luuppi does not store them itself.

Stripe may also process data outside the European Economic Area (e.g., Stripe Inc., United States). The transfer is based on the European Commission's adequacy decision (EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework) or the standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission.

Principles of Register Protection

Personal data is kept confidential. Luuppi ry and its service provider(s) ensure the security of data to the best of their ability. Paper-based data is stored under lock and key, accessible only to authorized individuals, and is destroyed immediately after use.

Data Retention and Deletion

Data subjects' information is retained only as long as necessary, for example, additional information for orders is not needed after an event and is intended to be deleted within a month of the event's conclusion. Participation or payment information for the event is kept longer for the resolution of any payment disputes.

Upon request by the data subject, we will delete their personal data unless there is a legal or contractual obligation to retain the information, such as data required for maintaining the membership register as long as the individual is a member of the association.
