When creating your customer profile, you can register separately for our newsletter. You will always be able to unsubscribe from this service in any enquiry. You will not receive newsletters or other unsolicited commercial enquiries from our partners without prior consent.

We track the opening of emails via a tracking pixel, which makes a call to the sending server that our newsletter has been opened. When you click on a link in our newsletter, this is tracked via the destination page to which the link indicates.

2.3.4  Passing on personal information to partners

2.4  To be able to deliver our services to you, it is necessary to be able to pass on relevant personal information about you to companies who host our data and operate our servers. We only process relevant personal data.

We only process your personal data that is relevant and adequate in relation to the purposes as defined above. The purpose is critical to which type of personal data about you is relevant to us. The same applies to the extent of the personal data we use. For example, we do not use more personal data that what we need for the specific purpose. 

2.5  We only process necessary personal data

We only gather, process and store the personal data that is necessary in relation to fulfilling our established purposes. Moreover, it may be determined by legislation which type of personal data is necessary to gather and store for our business operation. The type and extent of the personal data we process may also be necessary in order to fulfil a contract or another legal obligation.  

2.6  We check and update your personal data

We check that your personal data which we process is correct and not misleading. We also ensure that we regularly update your personal data.

Since our services depend on your personal data being correct and updated, we request you to inform us of relevant changes in your personal data. You can use the contact information above under point 1.3 to notify us of your changes. We will also, when needed, ask you to update your information via our newsletter, for example.

2.7  We delete your personal data when it is no longer necessary

We delete your personal data when it is no longer necessary in relation to the purpose that was the reason for our gathering, processing and storing of your personal data. 

We store personal information which we are obliged to store in accordance with legislation. Furthermore, we delete inactive profiles after one year from when we have reminded the user of this. Detailed log files regarding recipients of emails from our customers are deleted after one month. We only log the sender and recipient and do not save any email content.

2.8  We obtain your consent before we process your personal data

We obtain your consent before we process your personal data for the purposes as described above unless we have a legal basis to obtain the personal data. We inform you of such legal basis and about our legitimate interest in processing your personal data, e.g. if the processing is necessary in consideration of fulfilling the contract of which you are a part, or in consideration of the implementation of provisions that are made upon your request prior to entering into the contract.

Your consent is voluntary and you can withdraw it at any time by directing enquiry to us. Use the contact information above under point 1.3 if you require further information. However, the withdrawal of consent does not affect the legality of the processing that is based on consent prior to the withdrawal.

2.9  We do not pass on your personal data without your consent

If we pass on your personal data to partners and players, e.g. for marketing purposes, we obtain your consent beforehand and inform you of what your personal data will be used for. You can object to this form of passing on at any time and you can also request that enquiries for marketing purposes are not sent to you in the Civil Registration register (the so-called Robinson list).

We do not obtain your consent if we are legally obliged to pass on your personal data, e.g. as part of statutory reporting to an authority.
