Email handling

By sending an email any data submitted will be handled securely and with outmost privacy only to be used for its intended original purpose. You will not be added to any email news list. No personal information will be shared with any other parties. No information will be stored longer than necessary. All according to the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Correspondence that isn’t project or business related will be removed when it’s not relevant anymore. Quotes will be removed after they have expired. Business related emails will be stored as long as needed to uphold Swedish company laws. If you are a previous customer, you can at any time request details on what personal data is being stored.

Customers – document storage policy and handling of data

Any documents being issued such as licenses and invoices are only being made to fulfill the clients needs. Payments are handled securely using wire transfer, Stripe or PayPal. The secure encrypted storage solution we use is located in Sweden. Our ambition is to run a healthy business at a high level of ethical standard where every customer is treated with equal respect. As a service to the customers there’s a backup copy of the license being securely stored for 10 years in case you should lose it. You can always ask to remove any license at any time if you so wish. According to Swedish company laws invoices need to be stored for 7 years (from the end of that calendar year), then they will be removed.
