Privacy Policy

We value your privacy. You should feel confident when entrusting us with your personal data. That is why we have established this policy. It is based on applicable data protection legislation and clarifies how we work to safeguard your rights and your privacy.

The purpose of this policy is to inform you about how we process your personal data, what we use it for, who may have access to it and under what conditions, as well as how you can exercise your rights.

We are the data controller

Swedish Hydro Solutions AB, registration number 559002‑3403, with its registered address at Kristineholmsvägen 26, 441 39 Alingsås, Sweden, is responsible for the processing of your personal data. Swedish Hydro Solutions AB is therefore the data controller for your personal data.

Why do we process personal data about you?

We process your personal data in order to provide our services and products to you, i.e., solely for the purpose of entering into or fulfilling an agreement with you as a customer.

What personal data do we collect about you – and why?

We strive to process as little personal data as possible. This means that we do not collect more personal data than is necessary to enter into or fulfill an agreement with you. To be able to enter into and fulfill agreements, we require information such as your first name, last name, email address, postal address, and other contact details. We do not obtain access to your personal data in any other way than through the information you provide to us.

Unless you have given us your consent, we do not use your personal data for marketing purposes.

How do we protect your personal data?

Your security is important to us. We have therefore implemented appropriate technical, organizational, and administrative security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorized access and other unlawful processing. These measures are regularly reviewed and evaluated to ensure the highest possible level of protection.

Who do we share your data with?

We do not disclose your personal data to other companies or organizations unless required by law or necessary to fulfill our statutory or contractual obligations to you.

We may share your personal data with our partners, suppliers, or subcontractors, but only when necessary to fulfill our obligations to you as a customer. We never disclose more personal data than is necessary.

When required by law, we may disclose your personal data to authorities or other organizations. We may also disclose personal data if necessary to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.

We never disclose your personal data to third parties for marketing purposes.

Legal basis for processing personal data

We process only the personal data required to perform our services or deliver our products to you, i.e., when entering into or fulfilling an agreement with you. If additional personal data is processed, we will obtain your consent or ensure that the processing is permitted based on another legal basis.

How long do we store your personal data?

We retain your personal data for as long as the agreement with you remains in effect and for a reasonable period thereafter. In most cases, this means no longer than one year after the agreement has ended. In certain cases, data may be stored for a longer period, for example when required by law or when necessary to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.

Your rights

When we process personal data about you, you have several rights as a data subject. You may contact us at any time regarding these rights. If you wish to exercise any of the rights described below, you can reach us most easily at info@swehydro.com.

We reserve the right to take appropriate security measures to verify your identity when you contact us. If your identity cannot be verified in a reliable manner, we may not be able to fulfill your request.

Right of access

You have the right to obtain information about which personal data we process about you. Upon request, you may receive a compiled extract containing the personal data we process.

Right to rectification and erasure

If your personal data is processed incorrectly or is no longer necessary, you have the right to request that it be corrected or deleted. If the data is incomplete, you have the right to have it completed. Please note that deleting your personal data may affect our ability to provide services to you.

Right to data portability

Under certain circumstances, you have the right to receive the personal data we process about you in a commonly used, machine‑readable, and structured format. This applies to personal data that you have provided to us and that we process based on your consent or in order to fulfill an agreement with you.

Right to restriction of processing

Under certain conditions, you have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data. This means that the data will only be processed for specific purposes. Restricting processing may affect our ability to provide services to you.

Right to object

You have the right to object to processing carried out for tasks in the public interest, the exercise of official authority, or based on a balancing of legitimate interests. We do not process personal data based on any of these grounds, and therefore this right does not apply to our processing activities.

Right to lodge a complaint

You have the right to lodge a complaint with the Swedish Authority for Privacy Protection if you believe that your personal data is being processed incorrectly. More information is available at www.imy.se.
