Purpose of processing:

ERA processes personal data of stakeholders to:

Facilitate contacts, consultation, review of work progress, as well as exchange of information and views between the Agency and its stakeholders
Organise and manage events, meetings or other activities, (including reimbursement)
Manage access to ERA extranet, registers and to the One-Stop Shop
Inform about ERA’s activities
Manage online surveys on specific topics relating to our activities

ERA has identified two main types of stakeholders:

Engaged stakeholders: have an inherent interest in, and influence on, the activities and governance of ERA (EU) 2016/796
Generic stakeholders: everybody who are no engaged stakeholder but have an interest in the ERA activities.

Type of data processed:

The following personal data may be collected:

Personal details: first name, last name, category, user name, job title, organisation/company name, e-mail address(es), phone(s), , country, address, picture,
Financial details: bank account information, supporting evidence submitted for reimbursement (only for entitled stakeholders)

In addition, the stakeholder can select communication preferences by subscribing to the following subscription lists:

Agency newsletter
Surveys relevant to ERA activities
Ad-hoc information
Invitations to events

ERA can make connections with other contacts (e.g. hierarchical relationship) in order to classify them and establish marketing lists.

The collected data are classified in stakeholder categories, companies/organisations, workgroups and marketing lists.

The Agency’s SRM system has an integrated Outlook client which means that the content of emails can be viewed or stored in the SRM system.

Communications made via the SRM also allow scores about frequency of interactions of the contact with the system, e.g. registration to events.

By working through SRM, the Agency and the contact are able to build up a profile and this can be further enhanced through the use of website cookies.

Recipients of the data processed:

Personal data stored in the SRM may be accessed by ERA staff and contractors under the direct supervision of ERA staff.

Data records found not to meet applied standards are deleted.

From time to time, in order to validate data or in relation to particular campaigns (e.g. user satisfaction surveys carried out on behalf of ERA or focus groups), contact details (name, emails, addresses) may be transferred to third parties provided that an adequate level of protection (within the meaning of Article 9 of the Regulation (EU) 2018/1725) is ensured, in particular where the Controller adduces adequate safeguards (e.g. use of appropriate contractual clauses) with respect to the protection of the privacy and fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subjects concerned.

How are my data processed by SRM?

Contact details are either entered into the SRM system manually by ERA staff or by the stakeholder him/herself via the web interface or the One/Stop Shop
All ERA staff has editing rights to manage contacts as in accordance with good SRM practice and guidelines
Contact details may be gathered from publicly-available lists such as those relating to Members of the European Parliament, European Commission officials etc. and are also gathered through direct contact with an Agency staff member whether it is by email, telephone, business card or face-to-face meeting
Where a new contact is entered into the SRM, s/he will receive an email to indicate that the Agency would like to enter his/her data in its contact database. This email informs the data subject of this intention and provides a hyperlink to lead the data subject through to a variety of options including the possibility to decline the invitation or, if the data subject agrees to be included in the SRM, to complete or rectify his contact details and his subscription preferences. Without any action from the stakeholder, the profile will be deleted.
The contacts are under constant review to ensure accuracy of data
The contacts are requested to update themselves their data and preferences on a regular basis

Legal basis and Lawfulness of processing:

Legal basis: The SRM supports the actions which have to be undertaken by the Agency in the context of Articles 5 and 39 of Regulation (EU) 2016/796 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 May 2016 on the European Union Agency for Railways

Purpose of processing

The Agency is using the Commission accounting system ABAC, which includes the centrally validated "Legal Entity File" and "Bank Account File", to make or receive payments.

This processing operation is related to personal data that may be included in the Legal Entities File (LEF) that records all third parties with which the Agency conducts revenue and expenditure transactions. The Bank Account File (BAF) is a descriptive file containing bank details for all companies, organisations and individuals with which the Agency has financial dealings. Bank account related data are registered in a SWIFT compatible manner.

No transaction may be made for the purposes of implementing the budget unless it involves a legal entity (LE) that has been validated beforehand. It follows that before a bank account (BA) can be recorded in the BAF, a LE must be recorded in the ABAC application: the bank account will be linked to that legal entity.

A LE and/or a BA will not be recorded in the Agency's accounts until the legal entity validation team (LEVT) or the bank account validation team (BAVT) within DG BUDG has validated the authorising department's request, which must be accompanied by the relevant supporting documents.

The validation of the LEF and the BAF is a pre-requisite before any transaction may be made for the purposes of implementing the budget.

Each validated legal entity and bank account record is identified by a unique key. These keys are used by authorising officers' services when preparing financial and contractual transactions.

Type of data processed

The data, including personal data that may be processed are as follows:

data subjects:
- Private person or Staff member;
- Private companies represented by natural persons;
- Public entities represented by natural persons.
personal data:
- Bank details : Name in which the bank account has been opened, Address declared with the bank (street, number, town, postcode, country), Bank name, Bank Branch address (if needed), Bank account number (IBAN if existing), Branch code (for certain countries), Date and signature;
- LEF Personal details: name, first name, permanent address, ID card/passport number, date and place of birth, personnel number (for staff only).

Appropriate organizational and technical security measures will be ensured according to the data protection legislation applicable to EU institutions and bodies.

The forms and documents sent for central validation of the LEF and BAF are added in the payment file. Electronic data is kept within the ABAC WKFL system

The data collected in the Agency’s accounts can be accessed by designated agency staff + staff from the Commision’s central services, using a UserID and a Password. A Service Level Agreement guarantees the appropriate confidentiality and the technical and organisational security of the ABAC system, as required by the applicable data protection provisions.

Recipients of the data processed

The recipients of the personal data are:

Inside ERA:
- Authorised Agency’s staff dealing with financial and accounting matters have access to your data;
Inside EUIs:
- DG BUDG's central validation team dealing with financial and accounting matters have access to the data;
Outside EUIs:
- As the Agency is using the European Commission’s system SWIFT Network, for executing its payments, your bank particulars will also be sent to this company whenever a payment is made in to the beneficiary.

All recipients of the data are reminded of their obligation not to use the data for any further purpose other than the ones for which they were collected.

The personal information collected will not be communicated to third parties, except where necessary for the purposes outlined and to the entities identified above.

Personal data is not intended to be transferred to a third country outside the EU.

Identity of Controller

ERA Head of Resources and Support Unit.

Purpose of processing

The processing activity refers to the Microsoft Office 365 (Office 365) services made available to the Agency’ staff to support all content creation and management as well as collaboration use cases at ERA, as far as these are not supported by alternative tools or systems.

ERA has contracted the cloud-based solution Office 365 (“Office 365 platform”) provided by Microsoft to enable ERA internal and external stakeholders to work on any corporate device and facilitating collaboration.

These services are contracted through an inter-institutional framework contract whose terms and conditions were negotiated by the European Commission – DG DIGIT on behalf of the Agency, beside others EUIs. Microsoft acts as data processor for the provision of services related to the Microsoft Office 365 cloud–based collaboration platform, as well as to operate the following business operations:

Billing and Account management,
Compensation,
Resource planning, internal reporting and business modelling,
Fraud prevention and defense against cyber attacks and cyber crimes,
Core functionality and accessibility improvements, privacy and energy efficiency,
Mandatory financial reporting and compliance with legal obligations.

Type of data processed

The Office365 platform distinguishes between the following data categories:

Identification data,
Content data,
Service generated data,
Diagnostic data.

Any of these categories may contain personal data. The operation of this platform requires the processing of data categories by Microsoft, for the following specific purposes:

Providing the Office 365 service to the Agency,
- Identification data, Content data, Service generated data,
Technical support to IT teams for issues with Office365,
- Identification data, Service generated data,
Prevention, detection and resolution of security events (e.g. cyber-attack),
- Identification data, Service generated data,
Assistance to data subjects in exercising their rights in relation to data processed within Office 365,
- Identification data, Service generated data.

The operation of this platform requires the processing of data categories by ERA, for the following specific purposes:

Set-up, configuration and maintenance of Office365 capabilities,
- Identification data, Service generated data,
Administration of the rights allocated to a user account,
- Identification data,
End-user support for issues with Office365,
- Identification data, Service generated data, Diagnostic data,
Prevention, detection and resolution of security events (e.g. cyber-attack),
- Identification data, Service generated data,
Assistance to data subjects in exercising their rights in relation to data processed within Office 365,
- Identification data, Service generated data.

The above-mentioned processing of personal data by ERA and/or Microsoft is done to provide the cloud component of the Digital Workplace services.

In addition to this, Microsoft has been granted permission to process personal information for internal business functions in the context of providing the Office365 service (exhaustive list):

Billing and Account Management,
- Identification data, Service generated data,
Compensation,
- Identification data, Service generated data,
Internal Reporting and Business Modelling ,
- Identification data, Service generated data,
Combatting fraud, Cybercrime, and Cyberattacks,
- Identification data, Service generated data,
Improving Core Functionality of Accessibility, Privacy and Energy Efficiency,
- Service generated data,
Mandatory Financial Reporting and Compliance with Legal Obligations,
- Identification data, Service generated data.

Note that processing of personal data for profiling, advertising or marketing is explicitly prohibited.

The mode of processing is automated (computer/machine).

In addition to automated processing, ERA or Microsoft or other specific Third party contractually bound with ERA, may process personal data manually. Manual processing is taking place in the framework of service operations, most importantly to investigate security alerts.

The following categories of data subjects can be distinguished:

Statutory and
Non-statutory staff

that are enrolled as Office 365 users.

Related to the provision of the service, ERA or Microsoft process four different categories of data, all of which may include personal data. These categories are:

Identification data contains personal data necessary for the proper identification of the user and the corresponding user account, including exhaustively
- ERA username, email address and account status,
- User personal data (title, last name, first name),
- Function-related data (ERA, unit, office address and telephone number, city and country).

This information is copied to all Microsoft Office 365 data centers as per contract terms used to provide the service that allows global access and access control to the ERA’s environment in Office 365.

Content data includes any content uploaded to the Office 365 platform by its users, such as documents, and multimedia (e.g. video recordings). Such data is stored by the user in Office 365 but not otherwise processed by the service.
Diagnostic data (also known as telemetry data) is related to the data subjects’ usage of office client software. ERA has applied technical measures to disable sharing of diagnostic data with external parties, including Microsoft.
Service generated data contains information related to the data subjects’ usage of online services, most notably the user IP address, creation time, site URL and user email address. This data is generated by events that are related to user activity in Office 365. Event data will allow to monitor all activity in the cloud environment of each user. To learn which events trigger the creation of service generated data, consult Annex A to this notice.

Recipients of the data processed

The recipients of the personal data are:

Staff of RSU/ITFM responsible for carrying out this processing operation, and
authorised staff according to the “need to know” principle. Such staff abide by statutory, and when required, additional confidentiality agreements.

Those members of staff include ERA staff and external contractors under the supervision of the above mentioned ERA staff.

All recipients of the data are reminded of their obligation not to use the data for any further purpose other than the ones for which they were collected.

The personal information collected will not be communicated to third parties, except where necessary for the purposes ERA may be required to do so by law.

For services related to the Office 365 cloud-based collaboration platform, Microsoft acts as data processor. Contact details: Microsoft Ireland, South County Business Park, One Microsoft Place, Carmanhall and Leopardstown, Dublin, D18 P521, Ireland.

Legal basis for the processing operation

Legal basis:

ERA Financial Regulation adopted by ERA Management Board (Decision n° 206) Article 28 “Performance and principles of economy, efficiency and effectiveness¹”.

Lawfulness:

The data processing is considered lawful under art. 5(a), of the Regulation (EC) 2018/1725, because it is necessary:

for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the Union institution or body.

Protection and security measures

All personal data in electronic format (e-mails, documents, databases, uploaded batches of data, etc.) are stored either on the servers of the Agency or in Microsoft datacentres in the EU (linked to the Commission’s Office 365 environment). All processing operations are carried out pursuant to the Commission Decision (EU, Euratom) 2017/46 of 10 January 2017 on the security of communication and information systems in the European Commission.

In order to protect your personal data, the Commission (who represented the Agency in the negotiations with Microsoft) has put in place several strong contractual safeguards, complemented by technical and organisational measures. In addition to the general policy of Microsoft to secure personal data by means of pseudonymisation and encryption, the risk of disclosure of personal data to third country authorities by Microsoft Ireland and its affiliates is mitigated by customized contractual provisions, which address the way Microsoft responds to access requests, limiting risks to personal data of the customer. Technical measures include appropriate actions to address online security, risk of data loss, alteration of data or unauthorised access, taking into consideration the risk presented by the processing and the nature of the personal data being processed. Organisational measures include restricting access to the personal data solely to authorised persons with a legitimate need to know for the purposes of this processing operation.

If users access the Office 365 service from outside the EU/EEA, personal data may be transferred to a corresponding location in order to provide the service. To enable the global service provisioning of Office 365, Microsoft copies identification data (see Section 4) to all Office 365 data centres around the globe used to provide the service. This copied identification data remains under the control of Microsoft and is used to verify the user authentication details and grant access to EC M365 resources.

Service generated data is not necessarily processed outside of the EU. Microsoft is authorised to transfer it to Microsoft Corp., located in the USA, and the network of sub-processors. This type of data contains information on the usage of the service. The data is aggregated before being transferred but may contain identifiable information (see Section 4).

In addition to the general policy of Microsoft to secure personal data by means of pseudonymisation and encryption, the risk of disclosure of personal data to third country authorities by Microsoft Ireland and its affiliates is mitigated by customized contractual provisions, which address the way Microsoft responds to access requests, limiting risks to personal data of the customer.

Any data in transit is protected by strong encryption

Retention period

The Agency

keeps personal data for the time necessary to fulfil the purpose of collection or further processing,
maintains identification data as long as the user account is activated or if users have not decided to remove or delete personal data from their account,
content data up to 180 days upon expiration/termination of the subscription,
service generated data, up to six months.

Microsoft, as a processor for Office 365 services, may retain data for Online Services upon expiration of the subscription, i.e. during the 90-day retention period and subsequent period, up to an additional 90 days.

1 The objective of all processing activities related to Office 365 is to support the management and the functioning of the Agency, by adjusting the internal mechanisms and management systems to the new technological environment and advancements, by providing to ERA Staff the necessary means and tools to perform their daily tasks and by organizing ERA’s operations according to the principles of sound financial management.

This Notice outlines the criteria by which the European Union Agency for Railways (ERA) collects and processes personal data in the context of ECVVR.
It is a system composed of:

a search engine – Virtual Vehicle Register (VVR)- allowing users to access information related to registrations of railway vehicles in EU;
a standard National Vehicle Register – sNVR – that EU Member States can use to manage their data;
a National Vehicle Register Translation Engine – NVR-TE – integrating an existing IT system for railway vehicles registration at national level with the VVR.

Therefore, ECVVR can be considered as a search engine on distributed rail vehicles-related data, using a common software application, which allows users to retrieve data from all the registers in the Member States.

Concerning the personal data managed at Member State level, through the so called Standard National Vehicle Register (“sNVR”) sub-system and other NVRs subsystems using NVR-TE (translation engine), they shall follow the national rules in matters of data protection. Consequently Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, and repealing Directive 95/46/EC (General Data Protection Regulation) shall be applied.
