Scytáles Scania eID Privacy Policy
Scytáles provides the Scania eID application (the “App”) on behalf of Scania AB (“Scania”). This Privacy Policy describes how Scytáles collects, uses, and shares your personal data. In addition to this Privacy Policy, we provide information regarding privacy in the App for features that ask to use your personal information.
Please read this Privacy Policy and contact us if you have any questions at [email protected].
-Scytales Protection of Personal Data
At Scytáles, we believe strongly in fundamental privacy rights, and that privacy rights should not differ based on where you live. That’s why we treat any data that relates to an identified or identifiable individual or that is linked or linkable to them by Scytáles as “personal data,” no matter where the individual lives. This means that data that directly identifies you, such as your name, is personal data. Additionally, data that does not directly identify you, but can reasonably be used to identify you, such as your device serial number, is personal data. Aggregated data is considered non personal data for the purposes of this Privacy Policy.
This Privacy Policy covers how Scytáles or one of its subsidiaries (collectively, “Scytáles”) handles personal data however you interact with us. Scytáles provides applications and services that allow for you to securely prove your identity using identification information provided from Scania AB (“Scania”) or another identity issuer, such as a driver’s license issued by your state or country of residence (the “Issuer”) in order to interact with third parties either in-person or via websites (“Relying Parties,” or individually a “Relying Party”). Scytáles’s App may allow for interactions with third parties such as Relying Parties. Scytáles may also link to third parties through our websites or applications. Scytáles’s Privacy Policy does not apply to how third parties, including Relying Parties, define personal data or how they use it. We encourage you to read their privacy policies and know your privacy rights before interacting with them.
Your app store (e.g., iTunes or Google Play) may collect certain information in connection with your use of the App, such as personal data, payment data, geolocational information, and other usage-based data. We have no control over the collection of such information by a third-party app store, and any such collection or use will be subject to that third party’s applicable privacy policies.
-Your Privacy Rights at Scytáles
At Scytáles, we respect your ability to know, access, correct, transfer, restrict the processing of, and delete your personal data. To exercise your privacy rights and choices including where a third-party service provider is acting on Scytáles’s behalf, contact us at [email protected].
There may be situations where we cannot grant your request—for example, if you ask us to delete your transaction data and Scytáles is legally obligated to keep a record of that transaction to comply with law. We may also decline to grant a request where doing so would undermine our legitimate use of data for anti-fraud and security purposes, such as when you request deletion of an account that is being investigated for security concerns. Other reasons your privacy request may be denied are if it jeopardizes the privacy of others, is frivolous or vexatious, or would be extremely impractical.
-Protection of Personal Data at Scytáles
At Scytáles, we believe that your personal data deserves to be protected. We use administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your personal data in accord with international governmental and industry standards, taking into account the nature of the personal data and the processing, and the threats posed. We are constantly working to improve on these safeguards to help keep your personal data secure. When personal data is transmitted to Relying Parties, it is protected with encryption, such as Transport Layer Security (TLS) or Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocols. The use of encryption technology means that only the Relying Party will be able to access your personal data, and only after you have consented to providing certain personal data to the Relying Party.
To make sure your personal data is secure, we communicate our privacy and security guidelines to Scytáles employees and strictly enforce privacy safeguards within the company.
