Effective as of June 2017
We care about your privacy
Nokia Corporation, including its affiliates, is committed to respect
your privacy and to comply with applicable data protection and privacy
laws. This privacy policy (“Policy”) describes how we collect and use
personal data where Nokia is the data controller or where we refer to
the applicability of this Policy. “Personal data” means information
relating to you or another identifiable individual.
We will give you additional privacy information that is specific to a
product or service in Supplements to this
Policy and other notices you may see while using our products or
services. If there is a difference between such notices and this Policy,
the notices should be considered first.
Software on your device may access your information. Our products or
services may contain links to other companies’ websites and services
that have privacy policies of their own. Nokia is not responsible for
the privacy practices of others and we recommend you read their privacy
notices.
If you do not agree with this Policy, do not use our products and
services or provide Nokia with your personal data.

purchase, use or register into our products and services, take part in
campaigns or research or otherwise interact with us. This includes

require electronic activation, where your device and application
type, as well as unique device, application, network and

our web servers automatically create records of your visit. These

with applicable law, record your communication with our customer
care or with other such contact points.
-

location through the use of satellite, mobile, Wi-Fi or other
network based positioning methods. These technologies may involve
exchanging your location data and unique device and mobile, Wi-Fi or
other network related identifiers with Nokia. Our products may
operate on multiple device platforms, applications and services
which may also collect your location data. We do not use this
information to identify you personally without your consent.
When you use our location based services and features, for example
location based search, navigation and routing, or request for map data,
your location data is sent to Nokia to serve you with the right content,
which may also include location based advertising.
Why Do We Process Personal Data?
Nokia may process your personal data for the following purposes. One or
more purposes may apply simultaneously.
-
Providing products and services We may use your personal data to
provide you with our products and services, to process your requests
or as otherwise may be necessary to perform the contract between you
and Nokia, to ensure the functionality and security of our products
and services, to identify you as well as to prevent and investigate
fraud and other misuses.
-
Accounts Some services may require an account to help you manage
your content and preferences. For more information, see our
account supplement.
-
Developing and managing products and services We may use your
personal data to develop and manage our products, services, customer
care, sales and marketing. We may combine personal data collected in
connection with your use of a particular Nokia product and/or
service with other personal data we may have about you, unless such
personal data was collected for a different purpose.
-
Communicating with you We may use your personal data to communicate
with you, for example to inform you that our services have changed
or to send you critical alerts and other such notices relating to
our products and/or services and to contact you for customer care
related purposes.
-
Marketing, advertising and making recommendations We may contact you
to inform you of new products, services or promotions we may offer
and to conduct market research when we have your consent or it is
otherwise allowed. We may use your personal data to personalize our
offering and to provide you with more relevant services, for
example, to make recommendations and to display customized content
and advertising in our services. This may include displaying Nokia
and third party content.
Do We Share Personal Data?
We do not sell, lease, rent or otherwise disclose your personal data to
third parties unless otherwise stated below.
-
Your consent and social sharing services We may share your personal
data if we have your consent to do so. Some services may allow you
to share your personal data with other users of the service or with
other services and their users. Please consider carefully before
disclosing any personal data or other information that might be
accessible to other users.
-
Nokia companies and authorized third parties We may share your
personal data with other Nokia companies or authorized third parties
who process personal data for Nokia for the purposes described in
this Policy. This may include for example billing through your
network service provider or otherwise, delivery of your purchases,
providing services including customer service, managing and
analyzing consumer data, credit checks, conducting research and
managing marketing and other such campaigns. When you purchase a
Nokia product from us with a network service provider plan, we may
need to exchange information with your network service provider to
provide you with such service.
We may conduct joint marketing and other communications with our
partners, for example your mobile operator. To avoid duplicate or
unnecessary communications and to tailor the message to you we may need
to match information that Nokia has collected with information that the
partner has collected where this is permitted by law.
These authorized third parties are not permitted to use your personal
data for any other purposes. We require them to act consistently with
this Policy and to use appropriate security measures to protect your
personal data.
-
International transfers of personal data Our products and services
may be provided using resources and servers located in various
countries around the world. Therefore your personal data may be
transferred across international borders outside the country where
you use our services, including to countries outside the European
Economic Area (EEA) that do not have laws providing specific
protection for personal data or that have different legal rules on
data protection, for example, the United States of America. In such
cases we ensure that there is a legal basis for such a transfer and
that adequate protection for your personal data is provided as
required by applicable law, for example, by using standard
agreements approved by relevant authorities (where necessary) and by
requiring the use of other appropriate technical and organizational
information security measures.
-
Mandatory disclosures We may be obligated by mandatory law to
disclose your personal data to certain authorities or other third
parties, for example, to law enforcement agencies in the countries
where we or third parties acting on our behalf operate. We may also
disclose and otherwise process your personal data in accordance with
applicable law to defend Nokia’s legitimate interests, for example,
in civil or criminal legal proceedings.
-
Mergers and Acquisitions If we decide to sell, buy, merge or
otherwise reorganize our businesses in certain countries, this may
involve us disclosing personal data to prospective or actual
purchasers and their advisers, or receiving personal data from
sellers and their advisers.
