2 PURPOSE AND LEGAL BASIS FOR PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA

The purpose of processing of personal data is to enable the shareholders of Nightingale to register for and participate in the Annual General Meeting of shareholders to be held on 17 November 2022.

The personal data is used only for the purposes necessary to organize the General Meeting, such as verifying of the shareholders’ identity and his/her right to attend the General Meeting, preparing a list of participants, a list of votes and ballots, as well as for organizing any polling.

A list of participants will be prepared to be attached to the minutes of the Annual General Meeting, consisting of the following personal data: name of the shareholder present in the Annual General Meeting and his/her proxy, advisor or other representative, and the number of shares and votes.

The legal basis for the processing of personal data is, in particular, the compliance with the legal obligations to which Nightingale is subject, based on the Finnish Limited Liability Companies Act (624/2006) and other legislation. Personal data may also be processed on the basis of a legitimate interest of Nightingale or a third party, in which case the legitimate interest is, in particular, justified purposes related to the business of Nightingale, such as administrative activities, ensuring of physical security, protection of property, investigation of misuse, as well as potential merger and acquisition activities.

The provision of personal data as specified in this Privacy Policy is necessary in order for Nightingale to fulfil its legal obligations. Should the data subject not provide his/her personal data to Nightingale as described in this Privacy Policy, the sending and handling of the shareholder’s registration is not possible, which means that the data subject cannot participate in the General Meeting.

3 PROCESSED PERSONAL DATA

The processed personal data may include the shareholder’s and his/her representative’s and/or assistant’s (if any) name, personal identity number and/or business ID, address, telephone number, email address, number of shares and votes and voting information. Also, the basis of representation of the possible proxy representative and possible proxy attachments are collected through the registration service. Furthermore, votes registered by the participant are collected through the service. For the technical maintenance and monitoring of the service, the authentication method and user’s IP address are also collected. When participating in the General Meeting, time of arrival and departure of each participant as well as log information about the participation and voting of the participants in the General Meeting are recorded.

4 REGULAR SOURCES OF DATA

Personal data is mainly collected from the shareholder himself/herself or from his/her representative in connection with the registration to the Annual General Meeting. The data provided in connection with the registration is compared with the shareholder register of Nightingale maintained by Euroclear Finland Ltd from which the ownership information is extracted.

5 DISCLOSURES AND TRANSFERS OF PERSONAL DATA

Nightingale may disclose personal data to competent authorities when required to do so under the applicable laws, to prepare for legal proceedings or to defend a claim within the limits permitted or required by the applicable laws from time to time. If Nightingale reorganizes its business, personal data may be disclosed to the purchaser candidates and their representatives in accordance with the applicable law from time to time.

Nightingale may use service providers in the processing of personal data described in this Privacy Policy and may transfer personal data to such service providers to the extent necessary in order for them to provide the services agreed to Nightingale. Innovatics Ltd is in charge of the technical implementation of the registration system and voting at the Annual General Meeting.

Personal data may be transferred to countries outside the EU or the European Economic Area (EEA). In such cases, Nightingale will ensure the adequate level of data protection. Information on transfers of personal data outside the EU or EEA area and on the appropriate safeguards applied thereto is available from the contact details mentioned in Section 1 above.

Nightingale applies the appropriate physical, technical, and administrative safeguards to protect data from misuse. These safeguards include, among others, control and filtering of network traffic, use of encryption techniques and safe data centers, appropriate access control, controlled granting of access rights and supervision of their use, giving instructions to the personnel participating in the personal data processing, and risk management related to the planning, implementation, and maintenance of Nightingale’s services. Personal data is processed only by those persons, who need the personal data to perform their job duties.

To ensure the implementation of data protection, Nightingale concludes data processing agreements with its subcontractors who are processing personal data on Nightingale’s behalf.
