INFORMATION ABOUT GENERAL DATA PROTECTION
REGULATION (GDPR)
We may be collecting and using information from you if you are from the European Economic Area
(EEA), and in this section of our Privacy Policy we are going to explain exactly how and why is this
data collected, and how we maintain this data under protection from being replicated or used in
the wrong way.
WHAT IS GDPR?
GDPR is an EU-wide privacy and data protection law that regulates how EU residents data is
protected by Banks and enhances the control the EU residents have over their personal data. The
GDPR is relevant to any globally operating Bank and not just the EU-based businesses and EU
residents. Our customer’s data is important irrespective of where they are located, which is why
we have implemented GDPR controls as our baseline standard for all our operations worldwide.
WHAT IS PERSONAL DATA?
Any data that relates to an identifiable or identified individual. GDPR covers a broad spectrum of
information that could be used on its own or in combination with other pieces of information, to
identify a person. Personal data extends beyond a person’s name or email address. Some
examples include financial information, political opinions, genetic data, biometric data, IP
addresses, physical addresses, sexual orientation, and ethnicity. The Data Protection Principles
include requirements such as: Personal data collected must be processed in a fair, legal, and
transparent way and should only be used in a way that a person would reasonably expect. Personal
data should only be collected to fulfil a specific purpose, and it should only be used for that
purpose. Organizations must specify why they need the personal data when they collect it.
Personal data should be held no longer than necessary to fulfil its purpose. People covered by the
GDPR have the right to access their own personal data. They can also request a copy of their data,
and that their data be updated, deleted, restricted, or moved to another organization.
WHY IS GDPR IMPORTANT?
GDPR adds some new requirements regarding how Banksshould protect individuals' personal data
that they collect and process. It also raises the stakes for compliance by increasing enforcement
and imposing greater fines for breach. Beyond these facts, it's simply the right thing to do. At
‘www.rajebank.com’ we strongly believe that your data privacy is very important and we already
have solid security and privacy practices in place that go beyond the requirements of this new
regulation.
INDIVIDUAL DATA SUBJECT'S RIGHTS - DATA ACCESS,
PORTABILITY, AND DELETION
We are committed to helping our customers meet the data subject rights requirements of GDPR.
Raje Vikramsinh Ghatge Co-Operative Bank Ltd. processes or stores all personal data in fully
vetted, DPA compliant vendors. We do store all conversation and personal data for up to 6 years
unless your account is deleted. The data retention can be extended in cases where the data is
retained for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes, or
statistical purposes. In this case, we dispose of all data in accordance with our Terms of Service
and Privacy Policy, but we will not hold it for longer than 90 days.
