When using our website, we collect your personal data and in some cases process them on the basis of your consent, cf. Sections 2 and 3 above.

You can withdraw your consent at any time. You can do so by contacting us (you can find the contact details in Section 9 below).

If you withdraw your consent, we will stop the processing of your personal data unless we are entitled or obliged to continue processing or storing your personal data on another basis, including legal requirements.

5. Security

We have implemented appropriate technical and organisational security measures to ensure a sufficient level of security. With this we are doing our best to ensure the quality and integrity of your personal data. We store your personal data on limited-access computers located in controlled facilities and our security measures are continually reviewed to ensure that our user information is handled responsibly and with due respect for your rights as a user. Personal data is deleted or anonymised on an ongoing basis as the purpose the data was collected for is no longer relevant.

We reserve the right to update and change these guidelines for the processing of personal data. If we do, we will update the “last updated” date at the bottom of the page.

6. Storage period and your rights

Your information is stored for as long as the purpose of collecting the data remains relevant - for example, as long as you are signed up for the newsletter or for as long as you use our services.

Right of access: You are entitled to see the personal data that is being processed about you.
Right to rectification: You are entitled to have any potential incorrect information corrected.
Right to erasure: You are entitled to have personal data which is no longer relevant for the purpose it was collected for or personal data that no longer has a legal basis for processing erased.
Right to restriction of processing: You may request that the processing of personal data be limited to the purposes that are legal and to suspend the processing while the accuracy of the data is being investigated or a legal claim is being determined.
Notification obligation: We must notify third parties to whom information may have been transferred about whether data needs to be rectified, erased or limited.
Right to data portability: You are entitled to receive the information that you have submitted yourself on an electronic medium in a commonly readable format.
