  • Telephone number: We will be able to get in touch with You, if there are follow-up questions in connection with the purchase. This is your phone number assigned to You by your employer, and therefore not your private phone number.
  • Department: We shall be able to indicate on the shipment, to what place the goods will be with You.

As previously stated, We only deal with organisations and companies, We will of course also request related information about the organisation, but this information is not personal information and is therefore not described here.

Whom We Share Personal Information With

We do not share your personal Information to other companies or organisations unless required by law or necessary to perform our statutory or contractual obligations towards You.

We may disclose your general personal information to any of our partners, suppliers or subcontractors, but only if that is necessary for Us to meet Our obligations in relation to You as a customer. We never provide more personal data than is necessary.

We may also share information with others in an aggregated and anonymous form that does not reasonably identify You directly as an individual.

We never disclose your personal information to other companies or businesses for marketing purposes.

How Long We Store Personal Information

We retain personal information for different periods of time depending on the business requirement. Some information might be deleted automatically based on specific schedules, such as marketing information. Other data, for example invoice and shipping Account information, might be retained for longer period of time based on the contract individuals have with Us. As a requirement in the Accounting Act, invoices must be saved for 7 years. We might further retain information for business practices based on Our legitimate interest or legal purposes, such as network improvement, fraud prevention, record-keeping or enforcing Our legal rights.

How We Protect Personal Information

We use appropriate technical, organisational, and administrative security measures to protect any information We hold in our records from loss, misuse, and unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration and destruction.
