We will typically process the following general information: name, email, telephone number.
Our legal basis for processing this personal data is Article 6(1)(f) of the General Data Protection Regulation.
We will delete our communication with you when it is clear whether you want our services or not.
Should there be a need in a special case to store your personal data for a longer period, this may be the case.
Customers
We need to communicate with our customers to ensure that the service is delivered correctly. Through this, we may process information about name, address, services, special agreements, payment information, and similar details.
The legal basis for processing this personal data is Article 6(1)(b) of the General Data Protection Regulation.
Once the service has been delivered and any outstanding matters have been concluded, we will delete the personal data immediately thereafter
Accounting
We are required to store all accounting documentation in accordance with the Danish Bookkeeping Act. This means that we store invoices and similar documents for accounting purposes. 1 These may contain general personal data such as name, address, and a description of services.
Our legal basis for processing personal data for bookkeeping purposes is Article 6(1)(c) of the General Data Protection Regulation (legal obligation).
We will store this information for a minimum of 5 years after the end of the current financial year.
Job applications
We gladly receive job applications to assess whether they match a recruitment need within our company.
If you send us your job application, our legal basis for processing your personal data is Article 6(1)(f) of the General Data Protection Regulation (legitimate interests).
If you have sent an unsolicited application, HR will immediately assess whether your application is relevant and will then delete your information again if there is no match.
If you have sent an application for a posted job, we will discard your application if you are not hired, immediately after the right candidate has been found for the job.
If you are part of a recruitment process and/or are hired for the job, we will provide you with separate information about how we process your personal data in this context.
Data processors
Few can manage everything on their own, and the same applies to us. We therefore have business partners and use suppliers, some of whom may be data processors.
External suppliers may, for example, provide systems to organize our work, services, advice, IT hosting, or marketing.
It is our responsibility to ensure that your personal data is processed properly. Therefore, we have high demands on our business partners, and our partners must guarantee that your personal data is protected.
We therefore enter into agreements regarding this with companies (data processors) that handle personal data on our behalf to enhance the security of your personal data.
Disclosure of personal data
We do not disclose your personal information to third parties.
Profiling and automated decisions
We do not carry out profiling or automated decisions.
Third country transfers
As a general rule, we use data processors within the EU/EEA/UK, or those who store data within the EU/EEA/UK.
In some cases, this is not possible, and in such instances, data processors outside the EU/EEA/UK may be used if they can provide your personal data with an adequate level of protection.
Data processing security
We keep the processing of personal data secure by having implemented appropriate technical and organizational measures.
We have conducted risk assessments of our processing of personal data and have subsequently implemented appropriate technical and organizational measures to enhance processing security.
One of our most important measures is to keep our employees updated on GDPR through ongoing awareness training, GDPR courses, and by reviewing our GDPR procedures with the employees.
