Your individual rights
We have gathered information on how to access and control your personal data on our privacy portal (www.privacy.bonniernews.se) under the section “Hantera personuppgifter”. You are also welcome to contact customer service. Contact information about whom to contact to protect any of your rights is available under "Contact us".
You have the following rights:
Consent. If processing of personal data is based on your consent, you are entitled at any time whatsoever to withdraw your consent to future processing of your personal data.
Register extract, rectification and deletion. You are entitled, free of charge, to request a copy of your personal data (referred to as a register extract), request rectification of incorrect information and, under certain circumstances, request that your personal data be deleted.
Limitation. You are entitled to demand that we limit the processing of your personal data during the period we are required to investigate any objections from you or if we lack any legal ground to continue processing but you do not wish the information to be deleted, or if we no longer need the information but you require it in order to assert your rights.
Data portability. In certain cases you are entitled to data portability, i.e. to receive personal data which has been provided by you, in a structured, generally usable and mechanically readable format and to be able to transfer such to another controller of personal data in those cases where our entitlement to process your personal data is based either on your consent or on performance of an agreement with you.
Objection against direct marketing, i.e. marketing via post, email, SMS and telephone. You are entitled, at any time whatsoever, to object to direct marketing (including profiling for direct marketing purposes), with the consequence that we may no longer continue to use the data for this purpose.
Objection. You are entitled, in certain cases, to object to the use of your personal data with the consequence that we must possibly cease the processing unless we can show compelling justifiable reasons which outweigh the interest in not processing the personal data.
The Swedish Authority for Privacy Protection. You are entitled complain to a data protection authority. The Swedish Authority for Privacy Protection (Sw: Integritetsskyddsmyndigheten) is the authority in Sweden which exercises supervision over the manner in which we, as a company, comply with legislation. You find the authority’s website here: www.imy.se.
It costs nothing to exercise your rights. We answer requests about your rights and enquiries about access to or deletion of your personal data within, as a starting point, 30 days. The measures are taken within a reasonable time which, depending on the circumstances, may be up to 3 months. We reserve the right to charge a reasonable fee or decline to take any measure in the event of an unreasonable or manifestly unfounded objection or request.
Information regarding editorial content. Editorial content such as our articles, pictures and TV programs are not subject to the provisions of the GDPR. This means that you cannot request removal of an article based on the provisions of the GDPR. If you discover any errors in published material please contact editor-in-chief.
Security for your personal data
We employ a number of security methods to protect your personal data from unwanted access, use and disclosure. For example, personal data which you state on a computer system to which there is restricted access is stored in protected premises. In conjunction with the transfer of extremely sensitive data (for example, credit card numbers and passwords) via the Internet, we provide protection of such data through encryption. In those cases where our providers use subcontractors, we conduct regular audits of such subcontractors to ensure that processing takes place in accordance with this policy and our security routines. We store the information we compile when a user is not logged in (authenticated) separately from customer-specific account information which identifies you, such as your name, email address or telephone number. When analysing customer views, product development, personalisation, trends, statistics and for similar purposes, we primarily use anonymous data which does not consist of personal data; alternatively, we use pseudonymised data which cannot be linked to a specific individual without supplementary information being used.
Where we store and process personal data
We process data primarily within the EU/EEA, however in certain cases we use suppliers who are established in the US or in other countries outside the EU/EEA, such as for distributing newsletters, for development and maintenance of our systems and for web analytics. Countries outside the EU/EEA do not always ensure a level of protection for personal data equivalent to that guaranteed within the EU/EEA. It may therefore be necessary to implement supplementary measures when personal data is processed outside the EU/EEA. In those cases where we use suppliers who are processing personal data outside the EU/EEA, we have ensured that there is a legal basis for such processing for example by entering into standardised contractual clauses with the recipient of the personal data, that are approved by the EU Commission.
It has so far been issued three sets of standard contractual clauses for personal data transfers. These are accessible on the EU Commission’s website: https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection/international-dimension-data-protection/standard-contractual-clauses-scc_en.
We specifically want to inform that we use the analytics tool Google Analytics (read more about how and why we you the tool under ”How we use personal data” and ”Cookies and similar tracking technologies”). Google Analytics stores data on our behalf in several countries, including the USA. You find more information about Google’s data center locations here: https://www.google.com/about/datacenters/locations/. Google has engaged sub-processors who process data in different countries. You find more information about Google’s sub-processors and their locations here: https://privacy.google.com/businesses/subprocessors/.
You find the standard contractual clauses applicable to our use of Google’s services here: https://privacy.google.com/businesses/processorterms/mccs/
How long we store your personal data
We store personal data for the time necessary for the reasons for which they are used, e.g. for such time as required to enable us to provide the services; to maintain and improve the performance of existing services; to distribute necessary communication and market communication; to engage in development of our services; and to perform our statutory obligations. Since needs can vary as regards different types of data and with respect to different types of services, products and contexts, the period in which we store the information may vary.
Criteria that determine storage time. The criteria that primarily determine how long personal data will be stored are:
the reason we use the data, i.e. if we use the data to meet statutory requirements, it is stored for a longer time than, for example, contact information for direct marketing;
the type of data involved, i.e. sensitive data such as a food allergy is stored for a shorter period of time than, for example, contact information;
the way in which the data is stored, i.e. data which is not pseudonymised is stored for a shorter period of time than information which is pseudonymised;
our relationship with you, i.e. whether you are an existing, former or potential user/customer or whether you are visiting us without being logged in.
Contact details for direct marketing. We use your contact details for direct marketing during such time as we have a user or customer relationship and for a certain period of time after our user or customer relationship has ended, provided you have not objected thereto; read more under "YOUR INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS". We store your details for direct marketing purposes for up to 24 months following conclusion of the service (e.g. a subscription) or after your final purchase.
Information about purchases/transactions. If you are or have been a customer to us, we will store information relating to your purchases/transactions for 7 years for accounting purposes under the Accounting Act (Sw: bokföringslagen).
Company contact details. If your contact details are connected to a company that you represent, for example in conjunction with an event, your contact details may be stored to direct marketing to you for up to 36 months after the concluded event.
Prospects. We may contact potential customers by telephone in order to market our services and products. If you choose not to enter into a customer relationship with us, we store the contact details for up to 3 months from the date of contact. Companies within Di-gruppen may contact representatives of companies that are potential customers in order to market its services and products. In these cases, your contact details may be stored for up to 12 months from the date the contact details were collected by us.
User account data. If you have registered a user account, we use your data regarding, for example, interests and favourites, reader and purchase history, until such time as you close your account and for up to 24 months thereafter, if you do not request that we delete certain data. We store data in order to process complaints and to analyse user and customer behaviour with the aim of improving our services and for interest-based marketing.
Recording of telephone conversations. We store telephone conversations for 3 months.
Miscellaneous. Your personal data is deleted or anonymized when it is no longer relevant for the purposes for which it has been compiled. In conjunction with analyses of customer views, trends, etc. we use anonymous data which does not comprise personal data, alternatively pseudonymised data which cannot be attributed to a particular individual without additional data which requires specific measures.
Your personal data may be stored for longer than stated above in those cases where we are obliged to do so pursuant to any law, ordinance or public authority decision or to retain data which must be retained in order to resolve a dispute or if you have consented thereto.
