A. Formalising, maintaining and fulfilling contractual relationships

Purpose: In our position as the insurer, we need to process personal data during the various phases of implementing your insurance policy and pension and voluntary social welfare products. The purpose of this data processing is to formalise, maintain and manage the contractual relationships we enter into with you, including processing your requests or mandates, and the procedures prior to contract (pre-contractual relations) and setting up measures to ensure the performance of the contracts you have with us.

This processing involves gathering and recording the data and formalising the signature of the documents needed for the subscription process for products offered by VidaCaixa, both for individual products (products put in place directly with customers) and collective products (products put in place with companies, associations and other groups).

It also includes managing the operation of the products or services contracted. That is to say, the ordinary and operational management of the contract (such as changes to beneficiaries, updating conditions for offers, expanding policies, and product updates), receiving payment for the financial sums arising from the contract, payments of benefits, redemptions or any item arising from performing a contract linked to a product taken out by you, and external transfers and mobilisation of pension plans.

For this purpose, communications are also made that arise from managing the contractual relationships and transactions relating to the management of policies in which various insurers are involved, who distribute the cover of the insured risks amongst themselves, (known as “co-insurance”).

Furthermore, within the scope of insurance and welfare products, it is necessary for us to communicate data to supervisors, public authorities and registries, and reinsurance companies.
  • Health data processing: When performing any insurance policy to which you are a party, we may process your health data as these are needed to fulfil the contractual relationship that we have with you.
  • Implementing or monitoring commitments, discounts or preferential conditions: if you take out a product or service requiring compliance with particular requirements, we would like to let you know that we will carry out the data processing needed to verify that they continue to be complied with.

  • Knowledge and experience of investment in the specific product type.
  • Financial situation, including your capacity to bear losses.
  • Investment targets, including your risk appetite.

The purpose of this assessment is to be able to offer you information and, if appropriate, objective advice beforehand, so that you can make your decisions based on solid criteria. The above information will be obtained so that we can recommend insurance-based investment products that would be ideal for you and best fit in with your level of risk appetite and your capacity to bear losses.

Data controller: The data controller for this processing is VidaCaixa. This processing is not carried out with a joint controller.

C. Analysis of the state of health declaration to assess the data subject’s risk prior to contracting an insurance product

Purpose: This means that, in the event of a request from you to contract an individual risk insurance product, we can find out and evaluate all the circumstances that may influence the assessment of the risk that may be involved for VidaCaixa in entering into an insurance product with you, taking your state of health and lifestyle into account.

You are under the obligation to declare the risk that you intend to insure and, so that you can comply with this duty and VidaCaixa can properly assess your personal circumstances, we can use questionnaires regarding your personal situation, lifestyle and health habits, ask you to have a medical check-up and request declarations from you regarding any of these aspects.

D. Processing to deal with complaints and claims

Purpose: Handle queries, complaints and claims made to VidaCaixa in accordance with the applicable legislation as cited in section 1 of this document. VidaCaixa is under the obligation to have a customer care department or service to deal with and resolve complaints and claims that policyholders, insured, beneficiaries, injured third parties, or right holders of any one of them may submit regarding their legally recognised interests and rights.

Furthermore, in the area of voluntary social welfare, in accordance with the Pension Plans and Funds Regulatory Act and the VSWE Act, the Ombudsman is an obligatory figure from outside the organisation, who acts according to independent criteria and whose decisions are binding on VidaCaixa.

At the same time, the LOPDGDD obliges the data controller, in this case VidaCaixa, to deal with the claims submitted to its Data Protection Officer and to deal with the personal data protection rights that data subjects may exercise.

The processing work carried out to comply with legislation relating to processing complaints and claims is as follows:

  • Receipt of the complaint or claim by VidaCaixa’s Customer Care Service and by the Ombudsman;
  • Attention to the data protection rights and queries relating to VidaCaixa by the CaixaBank Group Data Protection Officer;
  • Data communicated to our sector supervisor, the General Directorate of Insurance and Pension Funds or, where appropriate, the Basque Country Government; and
  • Response to the complaint or claim submitted in any of the cases described above within the deadline set, as well as the activities needed to collaborate with the supervisory authority.

Data processed: The types of data we process for this purpose, the content of which is set out under heading 5, are:

  • Identity and contact data
  • Data on legal capacity
  • Data on communications special needs
  • Contract data
  • Basic financial data
  • Data on communications with you
  • Browsing data
  • Health data

Other relevant information:

  • Data communication: We will need to share your personal data with the Ombudsman and with the supervisors so that they can resolve the files/claims that correspond to them as described above.
  • Data controller: The data controller for this processing is VidaCaixa. This processing is not carried out with a joint controller.
  • Health data processing: We may process your health data when these are needed to fulfil the contractual relationship that we have with you.

E. Assessment, selection and rating financial/actuarial risks (including making automated decisions)

Purpose: Define VidaCaixa’s risk selection and rating policy. To do this, VidaCaixa needs to assess the risk it is taking on when entering into new insurance policies with its customers, as well as the risk that it has already taken on with contracts that are already in force.

Use of profiles and automated processing: For this processing, we draw up profiles that we only use for the continuous assessment of the risk taken on by VidaCaixa with the contracts that are in force and to assess and define the policy for selecting new risks and VidaCaixa’s subscription and rating strategy. The personal data are configured and integrated into mathematical models to make calculations and assessments of the risk associated with the possibility that an incident or contingency might take place that gives rise to the automatic receipt of a benefit. Therefore, customers are classified in terms of risk on the basis of the data indicated below: firstly, what type of subscription check should be used, if necessary, to access a new insurance product and, secondly, the appropriate rate to use to calculate the technical provisions.

Consequences: We do not, under any circumstances, use this automated profiling to refuse any product or service, or apply a rate that is higher than that applicable in the event that the risk of your transaction is not assessed automatically. In any case, you have the right to ask us for a health questionnaire or have a medical check-up voluntarily, which will be taken into account in the contracting process. The assignment of a risk profile will be associated with determining the applicable rate, which will never be higher than that for a customer who decides to undergo a normal subscription check.

Logic: A customer’s profile is worked out using the data shown in the “data processed” section. Mathematical formulas are applied to these data, which are obtained from behaviour observed in the past in customers with similar characteristics, to measure, depending on the relevant time horizon for each kind of contract, the possibility that any of the circumstances obliging VidaCaixa to pay a benefit arise. These mathematical formulas allow us to determine the importance of all the data processed in the final result of the customer’s profile.

By way of example, it will be estimated based on financial/actuarial calculations and experience with other customers in similar circumstances, your life expectancy, the risk that you may have an accident, become incapacitated in any way, retire, lose your job or suffer a serious illness.

Data processed:

  • Identity and contact data: Tax ID (NIF)/Foreign Citizen’s ID No. (NIE)/Passport, name and surname(s), date of birth, postal address, email address, telephone number (landline or mobile) and language for communications.
  • Financial data: Products and services contracted, status as holder/beneficiary/attorney-in-fact, status as a non-customer intervener, MiFID category and payment history.

  • Employment: Employment relationship data (position, length of service, etc).
  • Data on communications with you..
  • Data observed when contracting and maintaining products and services that are sold to you.
  • Data obtained from drawing up statistical models.
  • Data relating to international sanctions.
  • Information obtained from publicly available sources and public registrie.
  • Special data categories: Health data.

Purpose: The purpose of this processing is to have suitable internal control mechanisms available to comply with the applicable regulations on corporate governance and risk management.

To comply with this purpose, effective compliance with the regulations and internal procedures is periodically assessed, in order to mitigate the risks identified in the marketing and contracting processes, and in the entity’s normal course of business.

6.4. PROCESSING BASED ON VIDACAIXA’S LEGITIMATE INTEREST (article 6.1.f) GDPR)

The legal basis for this processing is the fulfilment of the legitimate interests pursued by VidaCaixa or a third party, provided that such interests do not prevail over your interests, or your fundamental rights and freedoms, as provided for in Article 6.1.f) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

Carrying out this processing means that we have weighed your rights against our legitimate interest and concluded that the latter takes precedence. Otherwise, we will not carry out the processing. You can request the analysis weighting the legitimate interest of processing at any time by sending your query to the following email address delegado.proteccion.datos@caixabank.com.

In addition, we would like to remind you that you have the right to object to processing based on legitimate interest. If you understand that VidaCaixa and, as appropriate, the joint controller companies, have to take into account any particular situation or other reasons that justify us stopping data processing, you can request this easily and free of charge using the channels shown under heading 4.

This processing is set out below in order from (A) to (F). For each one of them, we give VidaCaixa’s legitimate interest (VidaCaixa’s legitimate interest) the description of the purpose (Purpose), the type of data processed (Data processed), if appropriate, information on the use of profiles (Use of Profiles), other information needed regarding processing (Other relevant information) and whether or not the processing is carried out jointly with other CaixaBank Group companies (Corresponsables/Data controller).

A. Managing the performance of employees, agents and suppliers

VidaCaixa’s legitimate interest: VidaCaixa’s legitimate interest in carrying out this processing is managing relationships with employees, agents and suppliers on the basis of their professional performance, thereby ensuring that the company functions well and efficiently.

Purpose: monitor and assess employees’, agents’ and suppliers’ professional performance, aims and targets by analysing the transactions and contracts they have with customer

Data processed: The types of data we process for this purpose, the content of which is set out under heading 5, are:

  • Contract data.
  • Basic financial information.

Other relevant information:

  • Right to object to processing: If you understand that VidaCaixa has to take into account any particular situation or other reasons that justify us stopping data processing, you can request this easily and free of charge using the channels shown under heading 4.

B. Fraud prevention

VidaCaixa’s legitimate interest: Prevent and hinder fraudulent conduct that not only harms VidaCaixa but also the sector in general.

Purpose: Take the necessary steps to detect, prevent, avoid or reverse, if their effects are defined, all malicious transactions or conduct carried out in any of the phases of signing up for and taking out insurance offered by VidaCaixa, and to avoid others that involve economic or reputational losses to the entity or its customers. For example, fraudulent redemptions or mobilisations or other transactions relating to pension plan or VSWE management, or in payment and receipt management operations, in the widest possible sense.

The main processing work carried out to fight against fraud is as follows:

  • Verify the identity of the customers associating with the entity to prevent fraudulent subscription processes, or with intent to defraud, for example. when taking out insurance for a risk that has already occurred, or intentionally withholding information on state of health;
  • Review and analyse contracts and transactions carried out on our systems to detect malicious or fraudulent conduct, for example, when it comes to processing a pension plan benefit, redemption or mobilisation.

Use of profiles and automated processing: this processing involves drawing up a profile relating to your usual transactions and activities that we only use to identify unusual, anomalous transactions or interactions, or which fall outside your behaviour profile, which may be indicative of an attempt at fraud. Its use entails taking measures that go from a detailed review of the transaction to blocking it or refusing automatic performance. To prevent fraud, we use automated processing to try to detect fraudulent transactions.

Consequences: In the event you are informed that a transaction cannot be carried out as there are indications of fraud, this will not prevent you from providing additional information or documentation that will help VidaCaixa to reassess your case and eventually discount fraudulent intent.

Logic: The processing consists of comparing your data and pre-existing transactions with the current ones, for the purpose of automatically detecting inconsistencies.

Data processed: The types of data we process for this purpose, the content of which is set out under heading 5, are:

  • Identity and contact data.
  • Data on your professional or employment activity and socio-economic data.
  • Contract data.
  • Basic financial information.
  • Data observed when contracting and maintaining products and services that are sold to you.
  • Data on communications with you.

    • Law 20/2015, of 14 July, on the organisation, supervision and solvency of insurance and reinsurance entities.

C. CPreparing management reports and mathematical models

VidaCaixa’s legitimate interest: VidaCaixa’s legitimate interest in carrying out this processing is to design, organise and optimise its corporate activity and commercial activity in the most efficient way possible. It is, therefore, necessary to have reports on the company’s management and business and the market, as well as advanced mathematical algorithms for information analytics.

Purpose: Draw up reports on the company’s activity and its relationship with the market, the composition and evolution of its customer base, and the suitability and effectiveness of its products, services and risks, which enable their efficient governance and management and the creation of statistical and mathematical models that enable the processing set out in this policy to be carried out.

Data processed: The types of data we process for this purpose are those previously identified for each type of processing. However, where possible, anonymisation (i.e., the information is irreversibly altered so that you cannot be identified in any way) or pseudonymisation (coding or encrypting your data) techniques are applied these data to ensure that the processing does not have any impact on their holders’ rights, and that the result of the processing is reports containing statistical or aggregated information, or mathematical formulas or algorithms.

Other relevant information:

  • Right to object to processing: If you understand that VidaCaixa should take into account any particular situation or other reasons that justify us stopping data processing, you can request this easily and free of charge using the channels shown under heading 4.
  • Ancillary data processingData processing to create statistical reports and mathematical models does not have the purpose of processing data relating to customers individually. This data processing is necessary, but ancillary, to the main purpose, which is to prepare management reports, or algorithmic or mathematical formulas and, therefore, they are carried out using, as far as possible, anonymisation techniques or, in default, pseudonymisation and minimisation of the information processed.
    The processing does not have any individual effect or consequence for the data subjects.

Data controller: When management reports or mathematical models are prepared based on other processing in this Policy where the data controller is VidaCaixa, the data controller will also be VidaCaixa.

In the event that management reports or mathematical models are prepared based on other processing in this Policy that is carried out with a joint controller, this processing will be carried out under the same joint control system as the original processing. In these cases, you can find the details of the joint controller companies and the essential aspects of the processing agreements at www.caixabank.es/particular/general/tratamiento-de-datos-empresas-del-grupo_en.html

VidaCaixa may also offer customers who are participants, insured parties or beneficiaries of products contracted by legal entities different products and services related with other VidaCaixa products that they may already have taken out.

Unlike consent-based processing (A and B in section 6.1), we do not need your consent when you are a current customer, and we only let you know of products and services offered by us and which are similar to those you have already contracted.

  • Identity and contact data.

[F32] Protección de datos - 2


 

7. RECIPIENTS OF THE DATA: THIRD PARTIES WHO MAY HAVE ACCESS TO YOUR PERSONAL DATA

Data controller and joint data controllers

The data we process due to the fact that you are a VidaCaixa customer is processed at VidaCaixa.

The data we process as joint controller, under the terms shown throughout this policy, will be shared with the other joint controllers (CaixaBank Group companies) for the purposes and on the legal bases shown above in section 6.

Official authorities, bodies and registries

As you have been informed of each type of processing in section 6 of this document, VidaCaixa is legally obliged to provide information obtained within the framework of contracts for products and services to official authorities or bodies of other countries, both within and outside the European Union (in which case you will be notified under the terms provided for in section 8), within the framework of the fight against terrorism finance and serious forms of organised crime, and the prevention of money laundering, as well as within the framework of compliance with the legal regulations for the insurance sector shown above. With respect to insurance with death cover, VidaCaixa, in its capacity as insurer, must also notify a public registry legally constituted for that purpose (Law 20/2005, of 14 November, on the creation of the death cover Insurance Policy Register) of its existence and basic data.

The legal basis for these assignments is compliance with the aforementioned legal obligations.

Data communication needed to fulfil contractual relationships

As mentioned above, in the area of employment pension plans and VSWEs, it is possible that, in order to fulfil our contractual relationship with you, it may be necessary for us to communicate some of your data to third parties participating in the relationship, such as, for example, actuaries, supervisory committees, deposit entities, auditors or other bodies with legally attributed powers for that purpose. Furthermore, within the scope of insurance and welfare products, it is necessary for us to communicate data to supervisors, public authorities and registries. In all cases, your personal data are only communicated in as far as is necessary for the proper performance of your insurance policies, with that sole purpose and legal basis.

In addition, within the field of insurance, and under the terms provided for in the LOSSEAR, it will be necessary to communicate your data to reinsurance companies. The main function of the reinsurance policy is to manage VidaCaixa’s exposure to risk, as the insurance company, essentially with the aim of reducing it by transferring it, to a greater or lesser extent, to the reinsurance company. Reinsurance is, therefore, a vitally important tool for managing VidaCaixa’s balance sheet and solvency as an insurance company. As part of taking out reinsurance, the LOSSEAR expressly provides that insurance companies may communicate, without the consent of the policy holder, insured party, beneficiary or aggrieved third party, the data that are strictly necessary to enter into the reinsurance policy to its reinsurance entities or to carry out connected transactions. These are understood to be conducting statistical or actuarial studies, risk assessment or research for their customers, and any other activity related to or arising from reinsurance activities. Assigning such data for any purpose other than those provided for in the previous paragraph will require your consent. The reinsurer will not have any type of direct contact with the insured parties.

Data communication when outsourcing services to data processors

We occasionally use service providers with potential access to personal data. These providers give suitable, sufficient warranties in relation to data processing, as we have a responsible selection process for service providers that includes specific requirements in the event that the services involve personal data processing.

8. TIME FRAMES FOR RETAINING THE DATA

Retention to maintain contractual relationships

Ordinarily, we will process your data while the contractual relationships we have set up with you last.

Retention of authorisations and consent-based data processing

When we process your data on the basis of your consent, we keep them until you revoke your consent. At any event, if you cancel or terminate all your contracts with CaixaBank group companies for products and services, we automatically cancel the consents you have given us which you have not yet revoked, at the time you stop being a customer.

Retention of data for which the legal basis is our legitimate interest

When we process your data on the basis of our legitimate interest, or that of third parties, under the terms set out in this policy, we retain them until that legitimate interest ceases, or when you exercise your right to object to the specific processing, or when your rights and interests prevail over our legitimate interest, or that of third parties. At any event, if you cancel or terminate all your contracts for products and services with CaixaBank group companies, from the moment you stop being a customer, we automatically stop processing the personal data covered by our legitimate interest, or that of third parties, except in the case provided for in the LOSSEAR for the prevention of fraud when taking out insurance, as shown below.

Retention for compliance with legal obligations

As an insurer and trading company, we are subject to a variety of legislation that imposes on us obligations regarding the retention of documentation. In compliance with this legislation, we retain personal data while those obligations last, for the sole purpose of complying with the regulations.

Therefore, we inform you that we keep company documentation (contracts and invoices, etc.) for six years, as provided for in the Code of Commerce. In addition, in compliance with the regulations on the prevention of money laundering, we keep your information relating to life insurance for a period of 10 years.

Making, exercising and defending claims and fraud prevention when taking out insurance

Once the authorisations to use your data have been revoked by withdrawing your consent, exercising your right of objection, the legitimate interest ending, or at the end of the contractual or business relationships that you have entered into with us, and as long as no law does obliges us to retain the documentation, we will only retain your data to comply with legal obligations and to enable making, exercising or defending claims during the statute of limitations for actions arising from contractual relationships for 5 years. We may also retain such data for longer than the time during which the contractual relationships are in force, solely for the purpose of preventing fraudulent conduct, under the terms set out above, and taking the technical and organisational measures needed to ensure that they are only used for these purposes, maintaining the personal data blocked, under the terms provided for in data protection legislation so as to make them available to the authorities.

Destruction of data

Finally, we will destroy your data when the time frames for retention imposed by the rules regulating VidaCaixa’s activity have passed and the statute of limitations for administrative or court action arising from the relationships set up between you and us has expired.

 

9. DATA TRANSFERS OUTSIDE THE EUROPEAN ECONOMIC AREA

VidaCaixa processes your data within the European Economic Area and, in general, we sub-contract service providers who are also located in the European Economic Area, or in countries that have been declared to have a suitable level of protection by the European Commission.

If we need to use service providers for processing outside the European Economic Area, or in countries that have not been declared to have a suitable level of protection, we will ensure that the security and legitimate processing of your data are guaranteed and we will notify you of this.

Therefore, we demand suitable guarantees from these service providers, in accordance with the provisions of the GDPR, for example, that they have binding corporate rules guaranteeing protection of the information in a similar manner to that provided for in European regulations, or that they sign up to European Union standard clauses. You can request access to these guarantees by contacting us through our data protection officer

 

10. AUTOMATED DECISIONS

We informed you of the processing that includes automated decisions in section 6 of this document.

In addition, if, during your contractual relationships with us, we use mechanisms that may make decisions solely and exclusively based on automated processing (that is to say, without a person taking part) which may have legal effects on you, or that may significantly affect you (for example, refusal to enter into a contract for a specific product), we will notify you in the very contract documentation for the product or service that you requested, as well as the logic behind the decision.

Furthermore, at that time, we will take steps to safeguard your rights and interests by giving you the right to human intervention, express your point of view and challenge the decision.

 

11. REVIEW

We review this document every time it is necessary to keep you duly informed, for example, if new regulations or criteria are published or new processing is carried out.

We will notify you using the usual communications channels whenever substantial or significant changes to this information about data protection occur.
