Protecting the privacy of our clients when processing personal data is very important to us. The following text will provide you with information on how we handle your personal data, how you can contact us if you have a question about the processing of your personal data, as well as other important information related to how Erste Asset Management GmbH, pobočka Slovenská republika ("the Company") processes the personal data of its clients and visitors to the website https://www.erste-am.sk/en/amslsp
As of 25 May 2018, the General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR" for short) applies in the European Union. The GDPR determines how personal data may be processed and how it must be protected.
What is the General Data Protection Regulation?
The General Data Protection Regulation is a regulation of the European Union. It applies in every member state, including Slovakia. Any person whose data is processed can refer directly to the General Data Protection Regulation.
What does the General Data Protection Regulation regulate?
The General Data Protection Regulation contains regulations on the processing of your personal data such as name, telephone number, and more. The principles set out in that regulation govern how your personal data may be stored and processed.
Why does the Slovak Personal Data Protection Act No. 18/2018 Coll. still exist?
In addition to the General Data Protection Regulation, the European Union has issued a whole "data protection package". This package also included a new data protection directive. How is the directive different from the Regulation? Unlike the Regulation, the Directive must first be implemented in local legislation. In addition, the General Data Protection Regulation leaves room for member states to regulate individual aspects in more detail than those set out in the General Data Protection Regulation itself.
Why is the protection of my personal data important?
The protection of personal data is a fundamental right. Like the right to liberty or security, the right to the protection of personal data is enshrined in the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union. This Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union applies in the relationship between you and state institutions.
Where can I find out more about the General Data Protection Regulation?
Data Protection Act 18/2018 Coll.
Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union

Processing for compliance with a legal obligation

The client is obliged to provide personal data to the Company if it is stipulated by a special legal regulation. Other personal data is provided voluntarily by the client to the Company.
Where personal data is provided voluntarily, it is processed on the basis of a contract between the client and the Company or on the basis of acts establishing pre-contractual relations or arrangements between the client and the Company or on the basis of consent given by the client.

- records of telephone calls in the event of complaints or documentation of so-called explanations relevant to legal actions
The processing of personal data for direct advertising purposes may be a legitimate interest. Anonymized data may be used by the Company for statistical purposes. In these cases, the legal basis is the authorization given by law, the consent of the client or the Company.
Processing on the basis of consent
If there is no contract or legal obligation or legitimate interest, data may still be processed under the law if you give us your consent. The scope and content of the data processing is based on the relevant consent. You can withdraw your consent at any time.
However, the revocation does not affect the legal obligation of the processing that was carried out on the basis of the consent until the revocation. This means that the revocation has no effect on the past.

Due to the business relationship between you and our Company, we are reliant on your personal data. If we do not know your name and your e-mail address, we cannot send you, for example, any news or information about our new products, invitations to interesting events, etc... If we cannot verify your identity, the law does not allow us to have a business relationship. If you do not give us your consent, we may not be able to offer you certain products or services.
Is there automated decision-making and profiling?
For the purpose of properly targeting the offer of products and services, as well as for the purpose of providing appropriate products and services to the client to reflect the real needs of the client, the Company uses some forms of automated decision-making and profiling in the process.
The client has the right to object to a decision made on the basis of a purely automated decision and to request that such decision not apply to them. The above does not apply if the decision is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between the Client and the Company, or if such decision is permitted by law.
To whom is my personal data transferred?
- To companies, authorities and persons within the Erste Group who need the data for the performance of their contractual, legal or supervisory obligations as well as to maintain their legitimate interests
- to public authorities and institutions
- third parties commissioned by us, e.g. for IT and back office services, insofar as they need it for the performance of their tasks.

Is my personal data transferred to a third country?
The cross-border transfer of personal data to third countries that do not guarantee an adequate level of protection of personal data by the company is only carried out in necessary cases, and always in accordance with the requirements of the Data Protection Directive.
How long is my personal data retained?
Your personal data is kept for as long as necessary to fulfil the relevant purposes. In addition, it is prescribed by law for what period of time we must keep the data.

The General Data Protection Regulation provides the following rights for your personal data. You have the right to:
- access under Article 15 of the GDPR
- rectification under Article 16 of the GDPR
- erasure under Article 17 of the GDPR restriction
- processing pursuant to Article 18 of the GDPR
- data portability pursuant to Article 20 of the GDPR
- objection pursuant to Article 21 of the GDPR
- decisions not based solely on automated processing - including
- profiling pursuant to Article 22 of the GDPR
What does the right of access mean?
You have the right to request confirmation as to whether we are processing your personal data as follows:
- the purposes of the processing
- the categories of personal data being processed
- the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data have been or will be disclosed
- where possible, information about the intended duration for which the personal data will be stored or, if this is not possible, the criteria for determining such duration
- the existence of a right to rectification or erasure of the personal data concerned
- restriction of or objection to such processing
- the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority
- all available information on the origin of the personal data, if the data are not ascertained from the person concerned
- whether there is automated decision-making, including profiling according to Article 22 par. 1 and 4 of the General Data Protection Regulation and - at least in these cases - reliable information about the logic, scope and consequences of information processing for the data subject
What does the right to rectification mean?
It is important to us that your data is correct and complete. If you believe that it is incorrect or incomplete, you can ask for the data to be corrected or completed.
What do „right to erasure“ and „right to be forgotten“ mean?
We place great emphasis on ensuring that your data is only processed within the terms of the General Data Protection Regulation. If you do not agree, you can request the erasure of your personal data. Reasons may include:
- The personal data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed.
Example: your personal data must be deleted because it was collected solely for the purpose of investing in a mutual fund or sending you a newsletter (= sole purpose). You have not consented to this data being processed for other purposes. In this case, the data no longer needs to be processed after the investment in the mutual fund has been redeemed or the newsletter has been cancelled and the retention obligation has expired.
You revoke your consent, on which the processing was based, according to Article 6 paragraph 1 letter a) of the General Regulation on the Protection of Personal Data or according to Article 9 letter a) of the General Regulation on the Protection of Personal Data and if there is no other legal basis for the processing.
Example: you have consented to your personal data being processed for individual product offers of a third party provider (= sole purpose). If you withdraw this consent, the personal data must be deleted again. Exception: if there are other purposes or justifications for the processing and you are, for example, also in a customer relationship with the third provider.
- You object to the processing according to Article 21 par. 1 of the General Data Protection Regulation and if there are no overriding legitimate reasons for the processing.
Example: you can object if someone processes your personal data without your consent just because they think they have a legitimate interest in doing so (and there is no other explanation). If you object, and if there really was no legitimate interest, the personal data must be deleted. The personal data has been processed unlawfully.
Personal data processed unlawfully (“without a reason”) must be deleted.
The erasure of personal data is subject to a legal obligation under EU law or the law of the Member States of the data controller.
These are laws or regulations that require the erasure of personal data.
Personal data has been collected in relation to the information society services offered pursuant to Article 8(1) of the General Data Protection Regulation.
In this case, this is a special protection rule in favour of minors who use online services.
„The right to be forgotten“ applies to personal data made public. The person who originally disclosed the data must delete the data (because one of the above-mentioned grounds for deletion applies). The persons who received the data on the basis of the disclosure must also be informed of this subsequently.
What does the right to restriction of processing mean?
We place great importance on processing your data at all times within the terms of the General Data Protection Regulation and the Data Protection Act 2018. If you do not agree, you have the right to request a restriction on the processing of your personal data. However, this is only possible for the following legitimate reasons:
- You question the accuracy of your personal data. You can request the restriction of processing during a period of time that allows the data controllers to verify the accuracy of the personal data.
- However, in the event of a difference of opinion, further processing may be limited to the time during which the matter is clarified, so that the disputed personal data may not be deleted or changed immediately. It could turn out that the data was correct.
- The processing of personal data is unlawful. However, instead of erasure, you wish to restrict 'only' the use of the personal data. The General Data Protection Regulation gives you the right to choose. If you do not want the unlawfully processed data to be deleted immediately, you can request that it remains stored but not used.
- Data controllers no longer need your personal data for processing. You only need the data to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.
- If your personal data should in fact be erased but is necessary for you to exercise or defend your own rights, it may be processed for these purposes.
- You have objected to processing under Article 21 par.1 of the GDPR. If it is not yet certain whether the legitimate grounds of the data controller prevail over your interests, it is possible to request a restriction of processing. In order to prevent the disputed personal data from being deleted immediately, further processing may be restricted for the duration of the objection. It may be established that the processing was unlawful.
What does the right to data portability mean?
Your personal data belongs to you. Therefore, you have the right to receive this data in a structured, common and machine-readable form. This applies to data that you have provided to us and that is processed by automated means on the basis of your consent or on the basis of contractual performance. You may also request that we transfer this personal data to another data controller.
In what form will the data be provided to me?
The data will be provided to you in the form of an XML file.
What does the right to object mean?
Your data may be processed if there is a legitimate interest to do so.
If such legitimate interest is confirmed, you must be informed of this. If you are of the opinion that there is no legitimate interest, you may object. This is especially true if your personal data is used for direct advertising. If the persons responsible cannot demonstrate any legitimate grounds for further processing, your personal data may not be further processed after the inconsistency. Except for processing for direct marketing purposes. In that case, your objection has absolute effect.
What does the right to be subject to a decision based on automated processing, including profiling, mean?
We do not use any automated decision-making under Article 22 of the General Data Protection Regulation for decisions on the justification and implementation of the business relationship. Therefore, the right to object does not apply.
How do I apply?
- By post - in writing, with a handwritten signature and a copy of your ID, to:
Erste Asset Management GmbH, Branch Office Slovak Republic,
Tomášikova 48
832 65 Bratislava

The time limit may be extended by a further two months if necessary for reasons of complexity. In any case, we will inform you of the possible extension and the reasons for it within one month of receipt of the request.
What do I have to take into account for the right to data portability?
We transmit data directly to others when:
- you authorise us to do so
- you release us from banking secrecy
they are financial services companies, law firms, notary offices, tax consultancies, asset management companies or public authorities

Facebook stores the collected data about you as user profiles and uses them for its own advertising, market research purposes and/or to tailor its services and tools to registered users. Such evaluation is mainly carried out in order to inform other Facebook users about your activities on our website. You have the right to object to the creation of such user profiles, and you must contact Facebook with your objection. We recommend that you always log out when you have finished using Facebook, particularly to avoid having your online activity linked to your profile. For more information on the purpose and scope of data collection and processing by Facebook, please refer to Facebook's privacy statement at the following link: https://www.facebook.com/policy.php.
We would also like to inform you that we may use services provided by Facebook Irelend Limited, which are labelled as "data file custom audiences" - audience management for the implementation of advertising campaigns, whereby the data processed by us may be combined with personal data processed in Facebook's databases, and "measurement and analytics", whereby Facebook processes personal data on our behalf in order to measure the performance and impact of our advertising campaigns and to provide us with reports of users who have seen and responded to our advertising content. This processing of your personal data may therefore occur if you interact with our advertising content or our websites when using your user profile set up on Facebook. In such cases, we use Facebook as a data processor, and the following legal safeguards apply to the processing of your personal data: https://www.facebook.com/legal/terms/businesstools, https://www.facebook.com/legal/terms/dataprocessing.
We also use Facebook's "audience management" service ("Page Insights") to obtain statistical (aggregated) information about the use of our Facebook profile. In connection with the processing of personal data about visitors to our profile as part of the functionality of this service, we have entered into a so-called joint controllers agreement with Facebook, the main parts of which can be found here: https://www.facebook.com/legal/terms/page_controller_addendum.
If the processing of personal data explained above is objectionable to you, you can object to it or you can also use the available self-regulatory tools developed for the online marketing sector, which are available here: http://www.aboutads.info/choices and http://www.youronlinechoices.eu/). These online tools allow you to automatically identify third-party digital identifiers (including those from Facebook) in your browser and delete them, thereby also preventing the possible processing of your personal data.
