General information on data processing at TK.

In the following, we explain which personal data are collected in connection with post-call direct surveys, the purposes for which they are collected and your rights with regard to your personal data.

Purpose and legal basis of data processing

Post-call direct surveys are used to improve our service for you. The legal basis for the processing of these data is your consent as set out in Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. A direct survey will only be initiated if you have given your consent. The surveys contain open-ended text fields in which you can record your answers. The answers will be technically cleaned of personal data afterwards.

Type of data collected

Your voice is converted from speech to text in real time. Other personal (social) data provided by you (names, insurance numbers, addresses etc.) are technically recognised and anonymised during conversion from speech to text.

Order processing

The post-call direct survey service is provided for TK by Cognigy GmbH, Speditionstraße 1, 40221 Düsseldorf, Germany, in accordance with TK’s specifications (order processing). Cognigy is subject to TK’s data protection requirements and data protection monitoring. 

Storage period

Your voice will not be recorded. Your answers will be processed by TK in anonymised text form. The anonymised text files will only be made available to those TK employees who need them to fulfil the stated purposes.

Your rights

  • In general, you have the following rights:
  • the right of access to information (Art. 15 GDPR)
  • the right to rectification (Art. 16 GDPR)
  • the right to erasure (Art. 17 GDPR)
  • the right to restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR)
  • the right to object (Art. 21 GDPR)

We would like to inform you about the following: 

You voice is transcribed to anonymised text in real time. It is then no longer possible for TK to identify you personally. As a result, TK can no longer fulfil the rights of the data subject. However, it is possible for you to object to the post-call direct survey at any time by ending the call.
