REGULAR DISCLOSURES OF DATA

OpusCapita’s business is international. When using this website, you accept that personal information about you collected via this website can be transferred, if the relevant legislation so permits, outside national borders on servers supporting this website (including the transfer of this information back from such locations to your country of residence) for the purpose of implementing and developing the services of this website and other OpusCapita services, or for the purpose of saving information for purposes stated in this privacy protection statement. The saved information can reside in Finland or any other country where OpusCapita operates.

Such data collection tools might also save your IP address, information about which OpusCapita pages you have visited, the links you have clicked, as well as other information pertaining to your use of the OpusCapita website. The IP address is a number series that your computer automatically receives whenever you use the internet. The address allows the web server to locate and identify your computer. Computers use IP addresses whenever they communicate via the internet. This makes it possible to browse websites and make purchases over the net.

OpusCapita reserves the right to use automatic data collection tools in targeted emails, with the result that information is automatically collected when you open such an email or click on a link contained therein. Such information may be used to ensure the functioning of a web service or for information security purposes. In addition, OpusCapita may use such information to improve its services, as well as for customer relationship management and marketing purposes.
