9.   Recipients

In some cases, Tusass uses external partners and suppliers, including for hosting, invoicing, customer service and IT suppliers. The data processor processes personal data exclusively on behalf of Tusass and according to Tusass' instructions. Tusass only uses data processors that have documented appropriate security guarantees and comply with applicable data protection regulations under the GDPR and Greenlandic data legislation.

In certain cases, Tusass may disclose your personal data to other third parties that are not data processors. This applies to public authorities, as required by law, or to third parties to fulfill a contract, however, data subjects must be informed of this.

10.   Transfer to third countries

Tusass strives to only use data processors within the EU/EEA. If personal data is transferred to third countries, Tusass ensures that a data processing agreement has been entered into and that there is a valid transfer basis according to Chapter V of the General Data Protection Regulation.

Legal basis: the basis for the transfer will usually be covered by Article 45(1) of the General Data Protection Regulation, which is based on the adequacy decisions of the EU Commission. If the third country, territory or sector in question is not assessed as having an adequate level of protection, Tusass ensures that another provision is in place before the transfer. This will usually be Article 46(2)(c) of the General Data Protection Regulation, which requires that appropriate safeguards are established between the controller (Tusass) and the processor before the transfer. This means that an adequate level of security is maintained so that the rights of data subjects can be enforced and that there is access to effective legal remedies.

11.   Complaint to the Danish Data Protection Authority

You have the right to file a complaint with the Danish Data Protection Authority if you are dissatisfied with Tusass' processing of your personal data.
