Purpose

The purpose of this policy is to inform our customers of the information we collect and process in connection with the customer relationship.

This information about our processing of personal data describes how Atlantic Shipping protects your personal data and your statutory rights. As part of our business operations, we register and use information about you (personal information). We take all necessary precautions to protect your personal information in accordance with applicable law.

Why do we register and use your personal information?

We record and use information about you to comply with our agreements with you, including agreements for the purchase of goods and services.

This means that we register and use personal information when:

  • You have entered into or are considering entering into an agreement with us for a service or product, cf. the nature of the Personal Data Ordinance. 6.1 (b)
  • You have given us consent to use your personal information for a specific purpose, cf. the nature of the Personal Data Ordinance. 6.1 (a)
  • We are legally obliged to do so, e.g. according to
  • Tax legislation
  • The Accounting Act
  • The Payment Act
  • The Data Protection Act
  • It is necessary to pursue the legitimate interests of Atlantic Shipping A / S, cf. Art. 6.1 (f). It can e.g. be to prevent abuse or loss, and / or as part of direct marketing purposes. In this context, we only record and use your personal information if our interest clearly outweighs your interest in us not processing your personal information.

What personal information do we register and use?

We register and use different types of personal information depending on which services or products you have ordered or are interested in, including:

  • Basic personal information, e.g. your name, your contact information and your address
  • Information about the services and products we provide to you.

Special categories of personal data (“sensitive personal data”)

As a rule, we do not register sensitive personal information. Should this exceptionally become necessary, we will ask for your explicit consent, cf. the nature of the Personal Data Ordinance. 9.2 (a) to record sensitive personal data, unless we have a statutory right to record sensitive personal data, e.g. in connection with legal requirements, cf. Art. 9.2 (f).

Why and how do we record and use your personal information?

We register and use personal information in connection with our delivery of products and services, and in connection with marketing.

We also record and use the information in connection with other activities in relation to certain services and products, including:

  • Customer service and administration
  • Development of our products, services, systems and business
  • Marketing of our services and products
  • Determination of fees and prices for our services and products
  • Identification and approval of customers
  • To meet statutory requirements

We collect the information directly from you or by observing your actions, e.g. when:

  • You fill out forms on our website
  • You call us. We will inform you if we record the telephone conversation.
  • You use our website, products and services
  • When you communicate with us via email
  • You have given us your business card

Legal basis

Our processing of your personal data requires that we have a legal basis for the processing. Depending on the treatment in question, the legal basis will be one or more of the following:

  • The processing is necessary for the purpose of fulfilling a contract to which you are a party (eg your purchase of our products) or for the purpose of implementing measures taken at your request prior to the conclusion of a contract, cf. Art. of the Personal Data Regulation 6.1 (b),
  • The processing is necessary to comply with a legal obligation incumbent on us, e.g. pursuant to legislation, including accounting legislation and tax legislation, cf. Art. 6.1 (c),
  • The processing is necessary for us or a third party to pursue a legitimate interest that, after a balance of interests, takes precedence over your interests and fundamental rights and freedoms that require the protection of personal data, cf. Art. 6.1 (f),
  • We may have specifically collected a consent from you for the processing, cf. herewith the nature of the Personal Data Ordinance. 6.1 (a).

How long do we store your personal information?

We store your information for as long as is necessary for the purpose for which your data has been registered and used, or until you request that the information be deleted.

Third parties and your personal information

Personal information from third parties

We record and use information from third parties, including from:
