Introduction
WESTAL works to ensure that your privacy is protected. We have therefore created a policy that establishes how your personal data will be processed and protected.
This privacy policy applies to both our customers and to those applying for a position at WESTAL.
Who is responsible for your personal data?
WESTAL is the data controller for the personal data you send to us and is responsible for your personal data in accordance with the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation).
All transfer of your personal data is done in compliance with applicable legislation.
What kind of personal data do we collect?
We collect personal data that you send to us, for example, when you make orders, contact our customer service, or participate in competitions. The personal data you send to us may include contact information, date of birth, and payment information. Additionally, we may collect certain personal data from external sources, such as credit reports and address updates.
How do we use your personal data?
We may use your personal data for the following purposes:
• To create and manage your personal account at WESTAL
• To process your orders and returns via our information emails
• To contact you in case of issues with the delivery of your goods
• To answer your inquiries and inform you about new or changed services
• To send marketing offers such as newsletters and catalogs
• To manage your account through credit checks
We store your data for as long as required to fulfill the above purposes or as long as we are legally required to do so. After that, your personal data will be deleted.
What are your rights?
You have the right to request information about the personal data we hold about you at any time (free once per year). If your data is incorrect, incomplete, or irrelevant, you can request it to be corrected or deleted. We cannot delete your data if there is a legal requirement to store it, such as accounting regulations, or if there are other legitimate reasons to keep the data, such as unpaid debts. You can withdraw your consent to let us use your data for marketing purposes at any time. You can contact us by sending a letter to WESTAL AB, Fabriksv. 5, 56435 Bankeryd, or by emailing info@westal.se.
Who has access to your personal data?
Your data may be shared within WESTAL. We never forward, sell, or trade your personal data for marketing purposes to third parties outside of WESTAL. Data that is forwarded to third parties is only used to provide the services mentioned above, such as logistics companies for the delivery of goods, media agencies for the distribution of newsletters, and credit reporting or collection agencies for credit checks, identity checks, and debt collection.
How do we protect your personal data?
We have implemented technical and organizational measures to protect your data from loss, manipulation, and unauthorized access (Netred has done this). We continuously adapt our security measures in accordance with advancements and developments in the technical field.
