Privacy Policy

This policy explains how our website collects and processes your data, what choices and options you have and how you can exercise your rights. This policy is aimed at you who visit our website.

We believe that the protection of personal data is important and we strive to design our website with respect for the privacy of our visitors. Our starting point is to process no more personal data than is necessary for the purpose and to use the least privacy-sensitive data.

1. Personal data we collect and how it is used

Personal data is data relating to an identified or identifiable person. We process the name, address, e-mail address and telephone number provided to us via contact forms on the website. The personal data is processed to take requested actions such as answering questions or sending materials. The personal data may also be used for direct marketing to recipients in their professional role, customer and market analysis, invitations to meetings and other professional contacts regarding our products and services.

When visiting the website and downloading documents, we automatically process information which, under certain conditions, may constitute personal data. This includes information such as the time, date, file downloaded, size of the file, volume of data transferred, browser, language settings, operating system, referring domain and IP address. The purpose of processing this type of information is to provide an interesting, secure and user-friendly website.

Legal basis

The legal basis for our processing of personal data is a legitimate interest to market our services and products, to communicate with customers, suppliers and other stakeholders and to provide an interesting, secure and user-friendly website. In some cases, the legal basis is that the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract or to take steps at the request of the data subject prior to entering into a contract. In the case of cookies, the legal basis is consent. More detailed information on this processing can be found in the section on cookies and similar technologies below.

Storage time

In general, we do not store personal data for longer than is necessary to fulfill the purpose of the processing. We also delete personal data if you request that they be deleted or if we become aware that the personal data we process is out of date.

Transfer to third parties

Our policy is not to disclose personal data to independent third parties unless it is necessary to fulfill our contractual or legal obligations. The recipients who may have access to your personal data are related companies such as other companies within our group and our suppliers in areas such as information security, IT, shipping and logistics, finance and marketing. We do not sell your personal data or otherwise allow any third party to use personal data provided to us for their own purposes. The exception is certain technical information which is shared with third parties under specific conditions as described below.

Security and safety

We have procedures and practices in place to ensure that your personal data is handled securely. The starting point is that only people within our organization who need the personal data to perform their duties should have access to them.

Transfers to countries outside the EU/ESS

Normally, we only process personal data within the EU/EEA. However, in certain situations, your personal data and technical information may be transferred to recipients outside the EU/EEA that have an adequate level of protection for personal data. Exceptionally, personal data may also be transferred, after we have taken specific security measures, to recipients outside the EU/EEA that do not have an adequate level of protection for personal data.
