We process your personal data in accordance with the provisions of the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Data Protection Amendment Act 2018
Examples of such cases:
We process personal data of representatives of legal entities in order to be able to interact with you or your employer, e.g. within the scope of cooperations or for the processing of leasing contracts and orders.
Within UniCredit Leasing (Austria) GmbH, those offices or employees that require your data to fulfil contractual, statutory and regulatory obligations and to meet legitimate interests receive it. Furthermore, the data processing company (especially IT service provider and back-office service provider and service line) commissioned by us receives your data, as long as they need it for fulfilling their respective service. Accordingly, all the data processing companies are contractually obligated to keep your data confidential and to process it only in the context of service provision.
Sharing of your personal data with suppliers or cooperation partners is always only carried out within the framework of the consents granted by you, which can be revoked by you at any time.
The public authorities and institutions (such as European Banking Authority, European Central Bank, Austrian Financial Market Authority, tax authorities, etc.) and the UniCredit Bank Austria AG as our parent company can be recipients of your personal data, if there is a legal or regulatory obligation.
Reference to baking secrecy: With regard to forwarding data to other third parties, we would like to point out that, as an Austrian financial institution, UniCredit Leasing (Austria) GmbH is obliged to comply with banking secrecy regulations in accordance with Section 38 of the BWG, and must therefore maintain confidentiality regarding all customer-related information and facts which have been entrusted or made accessible to the bank in the course of the business relationship. Therefore, we can share your personal data only if you have explicitly released us from banking secrecy in advance, in writing or if we have a legal or regulatory obligation or authorisation for it.
In this context, recipients of personal data can be other credit and financial institutions or similar institutions to which we send data in order to maintain the business relationship with you (depending on the contract, this can be, for example, credit service agencies, etc.).
We process your personal data, insofar as necessary, for the entire period of the business relationship (from the initiation, implementation, until the end of the contract) and beyond, in accordance with the legal safekeeping and documentation obligations. These are set out, among others, in:
Moreover, the statutory limitation periods, which, for example, in some cases can last up to 30 years (the general limitation period is 3 years) according to the General Civil Code (ABGB [Allgemeines Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch]), must be taken into consideration for the safekeeping period.
You have a right at any time to
You can also direct complaints to the Austrian Data Protection Authority (www.dsb.gv.at).
According to Art. 13 (Art. 14) GDPR, we hereby inform you that, in the context of the business relationship, you must provide personal data which is necessary to establish and maintain the business relationship, as well as the information which we are legally required to collect. If you do not provide this information to us, in principle, we have to reject the conclusion of the contract or the performance of the order or we will not be able to fulfil an existing contract any longer, and we must consequently terminate it. However, you are not obliged to grant consent for processing of any data that is not relevant or not required for legal and/or legal purposes for fulfilling the contract.
We do not use automated decision-making procedures as defined under Art. 22 of the GDPR to reach decisions with regard to the creation or implementation of the business relationship.
A credit assessment (credit scoring) is carried out before the contract is concluded. This involves using statistical comparison groups to assess the default risk of potential customers. The calculated score should make it possible to predict how likely it is that the financing that has been applied for will be repaid. The following data is used in the calculation of this score:
If the default risk is too high, the credit application is rejected; if applicable, an entry is made in the consumer loan register maintained by KSV 1870, and an internal warning notice is received. If a credit application has been rejected, it is visible for 6 months in the consumer loan register maintained by KSV 1870 in accordance with the decision of data protection authorities.
