Why is the consent of UAPF contributors (beneficiaries) required for the collection and processing of personal data?

Today, when receiving many types of services, government and financial institutions request the
user’s consent to collect and process personal data. Let's figure out why the UAPF requests such consent
once when the contributor (beneficiary) logs into his personal account on the enpf.kz website or in the
UAPF mobile application.
When carrying out its activities, the UAPF is obliged to comply with the requirements of the
legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan, including the Law of the Republic of Kazakhstan On Personal
Data and Their Protection dated May 21, 2013 N 94-V.
In accordance with the Law, the collection and processing of personal data is carried out by the
owner and (or) operator, as well as a third party only with the consent of the subject or his legal
representative in the manner determined by the authorized body. The exception is the cases provided for
in paragraph 5 of Article 7 and Article 9 (Clause 1 of Article 7) of the Law, for example, if the
publication of information is provided for by the laws of the Republic of Kazakhstan, the collection and
processing of personal data is necessary for the activities of law enforcement agencies, courts and other
authorized government bodies that initiate and consider cases of administrative offenses, enforcement
proceedings, use by state bodies of personal data for statistical purposes with the obligatory condition of
their depersonalization, implementation of international treaties ratified by the Republic of Kazakhstan,
and other cases established by the laws of the Republic of Kazakhstan.
According to Article 1 of the Law on Personal Data, the concept of “processing of personal data”
means actions aimed, inter alia, at the accumulation, storage, modification, addition, and use of personal
information. These actions are carried out by the UAPF in accordance with the principles of protection
and confidentiality of existing personal data.
At the same time, the provision of certain pension services is not only carried out on the basis of
information stored in the UAPF information system, but also requires contacting the information systems
of government bodies, exchanging information with information systems (databases) of third parties,
which include government bodies and (or) state legal entities. For example, the details of the identity
document of the applicant are relevant in the UAPF information system, thanks to such an exchange.
Thanks to interaction with government agencies and the exchange of information, the UAPF, when
providing pension services, does not require copies of documents and (or) information from the applicant
if they are available in the information systems of government bodies and (or) state legal entities, that is,
the UAPF provides prompt and effective service, which meets the requirements of the legislation of the
Republic of Kazakhstan, excludes facts of fraud.
We emphasize that your data is NOT transferred to private or other legal entities.
 
The UAPF was established on August 22, 2013 on the basis of GNPF APF JSC. The UAPF founder and shareholder is the
Government of the Republic of Kazakhstan represented by the State Institution “Committee of State Property and
Privatization” of the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Kazakhstan. UAPF pension assets are managed by the National
Bank of the Republic of Kazakhstan. From January 1, 2016, the functions for developing proposals to improve the
management of pension assets were transferred to the National Fund Management Council. In accordance with the pension
legislation, the UAPF attracts compulsory pension contributions, compulsory occupational pension contributions, voluntary
pension contributions, pension benefits, individual accounting of pension accumulations and benefits, provides the contributor
(beneficiary) with information on the status of his pension accumulations (for more information visit www.enpf.kz)
