We are glad that you are interested in our services. Protecting personal data is important to us, and we take it very seriously. We process your personal data in compliance with our obligations under the applicable European Union and Republic of Estonia legislation, and we follow the principles of secure data processing.

What personal data do we collect?

Tuleva mainly collects and processes data on persons who have entered into or have expressed an intention to enter into contractual relationships with Tuleva (members of the Association, unit-holders of Tuleva funds) and/or use the pension.tuleva.ee web application.

The pension.tuleva.ee web application can be used by everyone who has joined the Estonian pension system. When a person logs into the web application, Tuleva makes an inquiry with the Estonian Funded Pension Registry and thereby collects and stores the following categories of personal data:

the person’s pension account number;
the pension fund to which the person makes mandatory funded pension contributions;
a balance statement of the person’s pension account;
an account statement of the person’s pension account;
a list of applications made to the pension register;

Tuleva also collects the data of the fact of logging in to the web application (the person’s first name and surname, personal identification code, time of logging in, phone number, e-mail address). If a person accesses the web application via Coop Bank, the fact of such entry is also recorded. When entering through Coop Pank, Coop Pank transmits the person’s first and last name, personal identification code and personal identification code country data, as well as authentication data to Tuleva based on the person’s request.

Based on the above information, Tuleva views the pension account information of the person that logged in to the web application. If a person wants to submit a choice application and/or an application for changing units, this can be done in the web application, and Tuleva will send the digitally signed application(s) directly to the pension registrar.

The Management Company maintains a register of the pension funds’ unit-holders, and the information is obtained from the Estonian Funded Pension Registry maintained by Pensionikeskus AS (registry code 14282597, address Tartu mnt 2, 10145 Tallinn).

The categories of personal data that the Management Company collects and processes include (but are not limited to) the following:

the person’s first name, surname and personal identification code;
the person’s contact details (email address and telephone number);
information enabling the Management Company to perform due diligence for the prevention of money laundering and terrorist financing, and to ensure compliance with international sanctions, including judging whether the client is a politically exposed person;
financial data, including transactions with units of the Management Company’s funds.

To meet its legal obligation, the Association maintains a register of its members, i.e. a list that contains the following personal data of the members:

first name and surname,

email address,
telephone number,
the member’s contribution to the initial capital of the Association,
the member’s share in the Association’s share capital.

In this case, we will process data about the entry method together with Coop Bank as co-responsible processors, based on our legitimate interest in determining the fact of entry in this way for the management of the cooperation relationship.

he purpose of the register of members of the Association is to record the number of members, i.e. owners of the Association, and the membership capital belonging to them. The Management Company maintains the list of the Association members in the name and under the authorisation of the Association.

According to the Articles of Association, the members of the Association must have directed their mandatory or voluntary funded pension contributions to a pension fund of the Management Company, except during the period when the Management Company has no registered mandatory or voluntary pension funds. To verify the fulfilment of this obligation, the Management Company regularly compares the Association members’ register with the list of unit-holders of the funds managed by the Management Company based on the legitimate interest and authorisation of the Association. As a result of the comparison, the Management Company forwards to the Association a list of members who have exchanged funds or redirected payments elsewhere based on an application for exchanging units or a choice application during the previous period.
