20                                          information processing. 

                                               The Fund has defined internal data security and privacy
                                            responsibilities, data protection procedures and also specified data
                                            security and privacy requirements concerning the activities and services
                                            of external stakeholders. In addition, personnel have been provided with
                                            guidelines and training. The aim of the data security and privacy policy
                                            of the Seafarers’ Pension Fund is to protect the information, especially
                                            personal data, information systems and services that are essential for the
                                            Fund’s operations, both in normal and exceptional circumstances, by
                                            means of administrative, physical and technical measures.

                                               Through data security and privacy control, it is possible to manage the
                                            risks related to data privacy and data security. As part of our own control,
                                            we pursue to ensure appropriate data security within the environment in
                                            which information systems are used. The Fund has conducted in-house
                                            control under the direction of those responsible for data security and
                                            data privacy.

                                               During 2021, the Seafarers’ Pension Fund has further developed its
                                            data security and privacy in collaboration with the parties involved in the
                                            earnings-related pension system as well as with selected partners.

                                               No data protection anomalies were detected in 2021.

                                            Communications

                                            The main aim of the communications of the Seafarers’ Pension Fund
                                            is, through appropriate communication methods and channels, to
                                            provide our customers and stakeholders with clear, reliable and expert
                                            information concerning the seafarers’ pension system and the activities
                                            and operating conditions of the Fund.

                                               Our primary communications channels include our website (in
                                            Finnish, Swedish and English), which was updated in 2021, and the
                                            Albatrossi magazine. The website meets the requirements applicable
                                            to the Fund in accordance with the EU Web Accessibility Directive. As
                                            compared to the previous website, the new website gained additional
                                            multilingual contents and completely new sections were added during
                                            the year. The purpose of the renewal has been to provide a visually
                                            attractive website with more diversified contents. A user survey was
                                            conducted during summer 2021 and the results and feedback were
                                            used as part of the ongoing development of the website. The Albatrossi
                                            magazine was published in four issues, with an online browsable version
                                            available as well. The annual report in Finnish and Swedish was only
                                            distributed online as a browsable publication, available through the
                                            website. An English-language summary was also made available as an
                                            online publication.
