Processing and purposes

The main purpose of the data processing undertaken by us is to provide, carry out and improve our services to you. There are several different reasons why we may need to collect, manage and save your data.

We mainly Process Personal Data for the following purposes:

  • Contact details to be able to confirm your identity, to verify your personal and contact details and to be able to communicate with you
     

  • Information on your usage of the service or product to improve our services provided to you
     

  • IP-address to perform customer analysis and for content on our site to be presented effectively to you and the device you use
     

How do we get access to your Personal Data?

We collect your Personal Data in a number of different ways. We mainly get access to your Personal Data:

  • By you providing your Personal Data to us

  • By your employer providing your Personal Data to us

  • Through generated information that has been obtained internally

  • From public sources such as authorities, SPAR etc.

Lawful basis

In order for us to be able to process your Personal Data, it is required that we have so-called legal basis for each process. In our business, we process your personal data mainly on the following grounds:

Consent - Palm may process your personal data after you have given your consent to the Processing. Information regarding the processing is always provided in connection to the request of consent.

Performance of a contract - The Processing is necessary for the performance of a contract entered between us and the Data Subject, or to prepare for entering into an agreement with the Data Subject.

Legitimate interest - Palm may process Personal Data if we have assessed that a legitimate interest overrides the interest of fundamental rights and freedoms of the Data Subject, and if the processing is necessary for the purpose in question.

Your rights

You are the one in control of your Personal Data and we always strive to ensure that you can exercise your rights as efficiently and smoothly as possible.

Access - You always have the right to receive information about the Processing of data that concerns you. We only provide information if we have been able to verify that it is you that are requesting the information.

Rectification - If you find that the Personal Data we process about you is incorrect, let us know and we will fix it!

Erasure - Do you want us to completely forget about you? You have the right to be forgotten and request deletion of your Personal Data when the Processing is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected. If we are required to retain your information under applicable law or a contract that we have entered with you, we will ensure that it is processed only for the specific purpose set forth in such applicable law or contract. We will thereafter erase the information as soon as possible.

Objections - Do you disagree with our assessment that a legitimate interest for Processing your Personal Data overrides your interest in protecting your privacy? Don't worry - in such case, we will review our legitimate interest assessment. Of course, we add your objection to the balance and make a new assessment to see if we can still justify our Processing of your Personal Data. If you object to direct marketing, we will immediately delete your personal information without making an assessment.

Restriction - You can also ask us to restrict our Processing of your Personal Data.

  • Whilst we are Processing a request from you for any of your other rights;

  • If, instead of requesting erasure, you want us to limit the Processing of Personal Data for a specific purpose. For example, if you do not want us to send advertising to you in the future, we still need to save your name in order to know that we should not contact you; or

  • In cases where we no longer need the information in relation to the purpose for which it was collected, provided that you do not have an interest in retaining it to make a legal claim.

Data portability - We may provide you with the data that you have submitted to us or that we have received from you in connection with a contract that we have entered with you. You will receive your information in a commonly used and machine-readable format that you can transfer to another personal data manager.

Withdraw consent - If you have given consent to one or several specific Processing(s) of your Personal Data, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time and thus ask us to terminate the Processing immediately. Please note that you can only withdraw your consent for future Processing of Personal Data and not for Processing that has already taken place.

How you use your rights

Transfer of personal data

In order to run our business, we may need help from others who will process Personal Data on our behalf, so-called Processors.

We process all our personal data within the EU/EEA.

We have entered into Data Processing Agreements (DPA) with all our Processors. The DPA sets out, among other things, how the Processor may process the Personal Data and what security measures are required for the Processing.

We may also need to disclose your personal information to certain designated authorities in order to fulfil obligations under applicable law or legally binding judgements.

Our categories of data processors

To follow are categories of recipients with whom we may share your data:

  • IT suppliers for e.g. business systems and case management. In order to be able to carry out our assignments and services, we store your Personal Data in our business systems (a system that administers our customers and contacts).

  • Statistics to contribute to industry statistics and to improve the customer experience.

Security measures

Palm has taken technical and organisational measures to ensure that your Personal Data is processed securely and protected from loss, abuse and unauthorised access. In case your Personal Data is shared with Processors, your Personal Data will be equally protected.

Our security measures

Organisational security measures are measures that are implemented in work methods and routines within the organisation:

  • Internal governance documents (policies/instructions)

  • Login and password management

Technical security measures are measures implemented through technical solutions:

  • Encryption

  • Access control level

  • Access log

  • Secure network

  • VPC

  • Firewall

  • Back-up

If we don't keep our promise

If you think that we are not Processing your Personal Data correctly, even after you have notified us of this, you are always entitled to submit your complaint to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO).
