Principles of database protection
Database information is collected into marketing systems to which only a limited number of specifically appointed Oy Brandt Ab members of staff have personal access codes. Use requires logging in to the information system; usernames and passwords are used.
Right to access data
Section 28 of the Personal Data Act states that everyone has the right to know what information is stored about them on a database and to know if they are on a database. Anyone who wishes to access their data must present a request to Oy Brandt Ab in writing. Be prepared to show proof of identity.

Data retention
Marketing databases are based on voluntary action, consent, independently requested information, and the customer's own proactive use of our channels. Thus, the access requirements for maintaining and processing our database will remain as there are until the owner of personal data informs us otherwise. We do this to serve the customer by safeguarding the product information that they request.
Making claims: If we have a legitimate reason to believe that we may possibly need to make claims, file reports or defend you, ourselves or a third party in court in the future, we may retain necessary personal data for the time in which it is possible for claims to be issued or for conflicts to arise.

Images and videos published by the user on social media channels (Facebook, Instagram & Instagram stories, Twitter, Pinterest etc.) can be shared or regrammed on the company's social media accounts and web pages, if:
a) the user has used identifiers related to the company/brand (#, i.e., hashtags) in which the brand name is clearly identifiable. For example, for Faster boats these could be #fasteraluminiumboats #fasterveneet
b) The brand's social media account had been added to the user's image/video by using the @ tag, of the user's own free will.
In other cases where the above-mentioned identifiers have not been used in the user's image/video/content, the administrators of the company's social media channels could utilise the content only if the user has been specifically asked for permission.
In addition to social media channels (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter etc.), social media content can also be published on the brand's own website. The @ tag is always used in all shared images/videos to refer to the original publisher or the content. The user must ensure that the people included in the published content have given their consent to the publishing of the image on social media. The original publisher of the image/content has the right to request the company to remove the shared content from their social media account anytime.
The user information of the content shared on social media will not be used for marketing and advertising directly, and personal data will not be stored anywhere else except for the administrator's publishing tool. The shared content can be kept published on the social media channels and the web pages for as long as the user's customer relationship continues or until the user asks the company to remove the shared content.
Persons appearing in the images/videos/contents published by the company have given their consent before publishing the content either in written or oral form. Another person is never tagged in images/videos unless the person appearing in them has given permission. Identifiable persons/property co-appearing in the background are always minimised in all ways possible, for example, through image editing.
