MINSK, 4 January (BelTA) – The Council of Ministers has passed resolution No.773 of 30 December 2020 to regulate how operations are carried out and how data is handled as part of the interbank client identification system, BelTA has learned.
Users of the interbank client identification system are supposed to carry out operations with the client's or the client's representative's permission to obtain, transmit, collect, process, accumulate, store, distribute, provide and use data, including biometric data. The client has to be informed in an intelligible form about how long the data processing permission lasts, about the content of the data, purpose of data processing, the parties that get access to the data, and about other terms and conditions. The client's data processing permission stays valid until a specified date or until the client revokes the permission.
Software and hardware solutions and technologies can be used by users of the interbank client identification system in order to identify bank clients, including remotely. The solutions and technologies can also be used to draw digital documents and sign digital documents. The Council of Ministers resolution specifies the terms that must be observed during such procedures.
The document comes into force as of the official publication date.
