6. Legal grounds
6.1 Agreement – Some processing is necessary for us to fulfill our obligations under agreements with you, e.g. when you send a request for a quote or order a service.
6.2 Balance of interests – For certain types of data processing, such as the collection of web analytics (IP address, visitor statistics) and simpler marketing, we base our processing on a balance of interests where our legitimate interest in developing our business and communicating with potential customers outweighs your interest in privacy.
6.3 Consent – For processing that requires your explicit consent (e.g. non-essential cookies and certain marketing measures), we will obtain it via, for example, a cookie banner or a special form. You can withdraw your consent at any time.
6.4 Legal obligation – We may need to save or otherwise process your personal data to comply with certain legal requirements, e.g. accounting and tax legislation.
7. Profiling
7.1 We may perform simpler profiling of you as a customer or subscriber to our newsletters, e.g. by seeing if you have opened certain mailings or clicked on links in the emails, in order to customize our future mailings.
7.2 You can object to profiling at any time by contacting us via the contact information provided below (stefan@dengronaguiden.se, 070 741 77 84). When we receive your objection, such processing for marketing purposes will cease.
8. Storage period
8.1 Your personal data is not stored longer than is necessary with regard to the purposes of the processing. We may save them longer if required by law or to monitor our legal interests.
8.2 Information about customers is generally saved for a maximum of 24 months after the last interaction, unless we are required by law to save information for a longer period.
9. Transfer
9.1 We never sell your personal data to third parties.
9.2 We may share your personal data with partners or subcontractors (data processors) who help us with operations, mailings or other IT-related services. These parties may only process the data according to our instructions and in accordance with this policy.
9.3 As a rule, we do not transfer your personal data outside the EU/EEA. Should such a transfer be necessary (e.g. if a subcontractor is located in a third country), we always ensure that the transfer takes place in accordance with applicable legal requirements, e.g. through the use of the EU Commission's standard contractual clauses.
10. Changes
10.1 We reserve the right to update this Privacy Policy as needed. In the event of significant changes, we will inform you in an appropriate manner, for example via email or a notice on our website.
