Purpose of the processing
The primary purpose of processing personal data is to fulfill the legal mandate incumbent upon us
We primarily carry out processing activities in the following functions:
- Regulatory, supervisory and administrative authority for the electronic communications sector
- Licensing authority in the field of audiovisual media services
- Regulatory, supervisory and administrative authority for postal and parcel delivery services
- Supervisory and administrative authority in the field of space
- Supervisory authority for electronic signatures and trust services for electronic transactions
Legal bases
The legal bases for the processing activities are set out in the following articles and apply in conjunction with Article 6(1)(e) GDPR (public task):
- Art. 56 para. 1 let. g of the Communications Act (KomG)
- Art. 82a para. 2 let. b Media Act (MedienG)
- Art. 25 para. 1 let. e Postal Services and Parcel Delivery Services Act (PPG)
- Art. 16 Space Act (WRG)
- Art. 11 para. 4 let. a Signature and Trust Services Act (SigVG)
If the personal data is not processed on the basis of the public mandate, the legal basis in individual cases is Art. 6 para. 1 let. a (consent) or let. b (contract) GDPR.
Data to be processed
The following personal data is collected, recorded and processed in the course of our activities:
- Maintaining registers: title, first name, surname, date of birth, address, email address, telephone number
- Applications: Title, first name, surname, date of birth, address, e-mail telephone number
Origin of the data
No data is processed that is not collected from you personally
Reception
No data is forwarded to other bodies
Storage duration
The storage period for data processing is based on special legal requirements regarding retention periods or the Archiving Act. Once the purpose of the data processing has been achieved and there are no statutory retention periods preventing the deletion of your data, the personal data is generally forwarded to the respective deletion concept of the Liechtenstein National Administration.
Legal Divisions of the data subjects
When your personal data is processed, you have various rights under data protection law: information, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability, objection, complaint to the supervisory authority.
You can exercise your Legal Division rights by submitting an informal application or request to the controller without giving reasons. However, it is recommended that you submit the application or request in writing or in a secure electronic form.
1. right to information:
With the right to information in accordance with Art. 15 GDPR, you as the data subject can request information from the data controller about which data about you is stored or processed by the data controller.
You will also receive additional information from the controller, e.g. about the purposes of processing, the origin of the data if it was not collected directly from you, or about the recipients to whom your data is transmitted.
The right of access enables you to maintain an overview and therefore control over which of your personal data is processed, for what purpose and on what legal basis.
2. right to rectification
If you discover that your personal data is incorrect, you can demand that the controller rectify it without undue delay in accordance with Art. 16 GDPR. Immediately means without undue delay on the part of the controller, which means that a certain amount of time must be allowed for the request to be processed
3. right to erasure
With the Legal Division to erasure in accordance with Art. 17 GDPR, you can in principle request the controller to erase your personal data without undue delay if one of the grounds in Art. 17 para. 1 a) to f) applies, e.g. the data is no longer necessary for the purposes of processing, consent has been withdrawn, an objection has been successfully lodged, the processing was unlawful, etc.
However, there may be exceptions to the right to erasure, which are listed in Art. 17 para. 3 GDPR. The controller must regularly check whether statutory retention periods or the Archiving Act preclude erasure.
4. right to restriction of processing
The Legal Division to restrict processing in accordance with Art. 18 GDPR can only be asserted under certain conditions, which are listed in letters a) to d) of the article. For example, if you request the rectification of your incorrect data or have objected to the processing, the processing of your data must be restricted by the controller until its verification has been completed. Furthermore, processing must be restricted if you expressly request restriction instead of erasure due to unjustified processing. Processing must also be restricted if the controller no longer needs your data for its own purposes, but you still wish to use it to pursue your own claims.
5. right to data portability
If you have provided your data to the controller, you can request to receive this data in a commonly used, machine-readable format in accordance with Art. 20 GDPR. This is intended to make it easier for you to transfer your data to another controller. The Legal Division on data portability applies if the processing is based on consent or a contract and is carried out using automated procedures
6. right to object
Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR grants you the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, by way of exception, to data processing which is lawful in itself, provided that the legal basis for the processing of your data is a balancing of interests on the part of the controller whose interests have prevailed in the balancing of interests carried out
7. Legal Division to lodge a complaint
If you, as the data subject, believe that your data is being processed unlawfully, you can lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority at any time.
