GDPR policy
Contact persons at corporate customers
1. purpose
The purpose of this privacy policy is to provide you, as a contact person at a company, with information about how ACTE Solutions AB ("ACTE") handles your personal data, and to make you feel confident that the processing is carried out in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation and other applicable personal data legislation. The privacy policy also describes your rights towards us and how you can assert your rights.
2. Who is the data controller?
ACTE is the data controller for the processing of the personal data collected from contact persons of business customers who purchase products from ACTE.
You can find our contact details below:
ACTE Solutions AB, 556600-8032
Box 4115, 171 04 Solna
If you have any questions about ACTE's processing of your personal data, please send your enquiry to gdpr@acte.se.
3. types of personal data processed
ACTE processes the following information about you as a contact person of a client company or sole trader:
- Name of the organisation
- Address
- Telephone number
- E-mail address
- Purchase history (stored on customers/individual traders not contact person)
- Contact history
- Personal identification number (sole traders only)
- Time zone, IP address, browser, operating system and agent, in case you contact ACTE via chat function.
Please note that purchase history data in relation to the contact person of corporate customers is linked to the corporate customer and not to you as the contact person.
4. What does the company use your data for?
Customer administration
Your personal data is processed in order for ACTE to administer your (or those whose companies you represent) orders and deal with any returns, warranty claims or similar customer administration. The legal basis is that processing is necessary for the company to fulfil the contract with you as a consumer or sole trader. If you are a contact person at a client company, the processing is carried out with a balance of interests as the legal basis, where ACTE's legitimate interest is to be able to exercise its rights and obligations under the contract with the client company.
Direct marketing
ACTE also processes your, as a consumer, e-mail address for marketing purposes. The marketing consists of the company sending you newsletters and offers of goods/services via e-mail for up to 12 months after your last purchase. However, you can choose to unsubscribe from our newsletters and email marketing at any time.
Even in cases where you are a contact person at a client company or sole trader, ACTE processes your e-mail address to send marketing. The marketing is then aimed at the company you represent and is based on the type of goods/services you have previously purchased and which we consider relevant to your professional practice. The marketing is sent for up to five years after your last purchase. Newsletters and email marketing will only be sent if you have not objected to such marketing, and you can choose to unsubscribe from our newsletters and email marketing at any time.
Marketing is carried out on a "balance of interests" legal basis, where the company's legitimate interest is to market its products.
To unsubscribe, please contact us at gdpr@acte.se or use the unsubscribe link provided in each newsletter/email.
5. Who may we share your data with?
ACTE may transfer your personal data to website administrators, couriers, PR agencies and system providers. These recipients are only authorised to process your personal data on behalf of the company in connection with the performance of a service for the company, such as delivering an ordered item to you or sending you marketing emails. ACTE takes all reasonable legal, technical and organisational measures to ensure that your data is handled securely and with an adequate level of protection when transferred to or shared with such selected third parties.
ACTE may also disclose your personal data to authorities, e.g. the Swedish Tax Agency, if we are required to do so by law. In the event that all or part of ACTE's business is sold, the company may transfer your personal data to a potential buyer of the business.
6. Transfer of personal data outside the EU/EEA?
Your personal data will only be processed within the EU/EEA.
7. How long do we keep your data?
Your personal data is processed for as long as it is needed for ACTE to be able to administer the purchase and any return of the goods. In cases where there is a warranty period on the purchase, your contact details and purchase history will be saved during the warranty period to enable ACTE to fulfil any warranty obligations.
Provided you have not opted out of receiving newsletters and email marketing, we will keep your email address for marketing similar products up to five years after your last purchase if you are a business contact.
If ACTE becomes aware that your employment as a contact person with a client company is terminated or if you cease to be the corporate client's contact person for any other reason, we will anonymise your data, if you so wish.
ACTE may store your personal data for a longer period of time if it is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation that requires processing under applicable law, or to enable the company to establish, exercise or defend legal claims related to, for example, ACTE's contractual relationship with the client company or the individual trader.
