When you use the BT POS App, we will by default have access to information about: transactions made by your customers with the card, the PAN of these cards, the transaction ID (RRN), the amounts charged to the company's accounts, including information mentioned in the payment explanations. Although this solution is exclusively dedicated to legal entity customers of Banca Transilvania, and information about legal entities is not usually considered as personal data, if you have an entity such as a P.F.A., I.I., individual form of exercising liberal professions (e.g. individual law firms, notaries, bailiffs' offices, etc.) you should be aware that information about them is subject to the personal data regime and the bank will treat it in accordance with the applicable legal provisions in this field.

Because we have a legitimate interest in supporting you in using the BT POS App (support) and because we want to know your opinion about this solution (service quality assessment) we will use the contact details you have provided to the bank as a customer to contact you for this purpose. You have the right to object to such contact. For details, please read the section on your rights in relation to the processing of your personal data.
Data collected for error identification and correction purposes
When you use the application and technical errors occur, we will capture the following data to identify and fix them: device, operating system, operating system version, error type and description.
Permissions required in the context of using the application
When you install the app, you will be prompted for permission to access your device's files and media if you want to upload a profile picture or download pdf receipts locally.
In case you want to upload a profile picture the app will access the location where your pictures are stored, but only to give you the possibility to choose the picture you want. As for the other functionality, after making the payment you will have the possibility to save locally (on your device) a copy of the receipt that proves the payment was made, and for you to take advantage of this option, the app requires access to the location where it will save the receipt. The saving operation does not involve processing data already stored in that location.
If you refuse to grant access to the files and media you will not be able to use the BT POS App, as the inherent functionality of the app requires access to this location. We reiterate that by granting access your personal data in the files and media will be processed solely for the purposes of uploading your profile picture or saving your receipt.
Other permissions required for the use and operation of the app, as set by the operating system vendor of the device you are using and for which explicit user consent is not required, are detailed in the "Permissions" section of the Play Store/ Apple Store for the BT POS App (e.g. permissions to notify you when you do not have an Internet connection).

When transactions are carried out via the BT POS App, the related data (usually PAN, amount, explanation of the payment), will also be accessible to the payer who made the payment and, implicitly, to the credit/payment institutions where they have opened the respective accounts.
Your data processed in the BT POS App may be accessed on a need-to-know basis and only on the basis of personal data protection safeguards by the bank's contractual partners who support us in providing the BT POS App solution.
