3. Lawful Bases for Data Processing

To be compliant with the EU GDPR, there must be a lawful basis for us to process your data. They are as follows:

• Consent: When sending out direct marketing communications, or other content for that matter, we only do so to visitors who have provided their consent. Visitors can remove the consent at any time.
• Legitimate Interests: Used for maintaining website security, preventing fraud, managing automated decision-making (where appropriate safeguards are in place), and using basic web analytics to understand how users interact with our site, provided your fundamental rights do not override those interests.

For the purposes outlined in this policy, we may share your personal data with the third parties listed below:

• Service providers: Data may be shared with the providers who host our website and manage our database.
• Analytics and advertising partners: Data may be shared with third parties that track our performance, such as the number of visits. Examples of these are Google Analytics, Plausible or affiliate networks.
• Legal authorities: Data may be shared with law enforcement or regulatory bodies, if we are required to do so by law.

5. International Data Transfer

Seeing as our company is based in Sweden, your data will primarily be processed within the EEA. That said, some of the third parties we work with may be based outside the EEA.

If data is transferred outside the EEA, then we ensure that a similar degree of protection is applied to your data.

6. Data Retention

We only store your personal data for as long as needed to fulfil the purposes outlined in this policy. For example, to send out our direct communications, we keep the first name, last name and email address.
