4. What about the policy?
This Privacy Policy governs how J Nacka Strand collects and processes personal data in order to deliver and continue to develop our Services.
5. What does it mean to be a Data Controller?
A data controller is a natural or legal person or other body that determines the purposes and means of processing personal data. A company is a data controller with regard to personal data it holds on its own behalf about its employees, customers, suppliers, and others.
6. J Nacka Strand as Data Controller
J Nacka Strand (company registration number 556630-6667) is the data controller for the processing of your personal data within the framework of J Nacka Strand Services and is responsible for ensuring that such processing is carried out in accordance with applicable legislation.
7. Why are we allowed to process personal data? 7 .1 In order for the processing of personal data to be permitted, there must always be support in the GDPR, a so-called legal basis. Such a legal basis includes, among other things
- consent from the Data Subject
- the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract with the data subject, for example, a contract for the use of the Services
- to fulfill a legal obligation, for example regarding the storage of data due to accounting requirements
- that, after weighing up the interests involved, J Nacka Strand interest in processing personal data outweighs the data subject's interest in protecting that data.
7.2 J Nacka Strand always processes your personal data in accordance with applicable legislation. Our primary basis for processing your personal data is that it is necessary to fulfill our agreement with you regarding the use of our services.
7.3 It may happen that the same personal data is processed both on the basis of the performance of a contract, specifically on the basis of consent, or on the basis that the data is necessary to fulfill other legal obligations. This means that even if you withdraw your consent and the processing based on consent ceases, the personal data may still remain with us for other purposes.
