What personal data do we collect?

ASSA ABLOY will process your personal data in accordance with the following description. The data we process and collect will principally come from your use of the application required to use the service. ASSA ABLOY will process your personal data for the purpose of providing you with the service and support connected with the service

 A.  ASSA ABLOY will process the personal data set out in this section A in order to achieve our legitimate interest of developing and updating our products and services:

  • Information related to the usage, technical data relating to your device

 

How and why will we use your personal data?

In addition to the above mentioned use and purposes, we use your personal data to administrate and improve this website, for our internal records, for statistical analysis about the use of the website and (if applicable), to complete your product orders and/or to contact you regarding sales and as a part of our customer relation procedures. 

In order to justify the processing under section A above, ASSA ABLOY has performed a balancing test to ensure that our legitimate interest is not outweighed by your privacy interests. Since the processing is limited to non-sensitive data and processed data is aggregated, we have concluded that our legitimate interest is not outweighed by your privacy interest. As a data subject you have a right to obtain information on how we conclude the balancing test in your case.

Who and where is your personal data transferred to?

We may transfer your personal data to the following categories of recipients to the extent necessary in order to complete the processes stipulated above or if legally required:

  • Government agencies and institutions;
  • Other legal entities within the ASSA ABLOY group; and
  • Our service providers such as legal counsel or IT hosting providers relevant to the service.

These third parties may only use your personal data according to our instructions.

Some recipients are located in countries outside the EU/European Economic Area (EEA). As in some cases these countries have a lower level of protection than that within the EU/EEA, when transferring personal data to countries outside the EU/EEA we use standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission to ensure a sufficient level of protection for your personal data. These standard contractual clauses can be found via the following link: https://ec.europa.eu/justice/data-protection/international-transfers/transfer/index_en.htm.

We take measures to protect all personal data transferred to a third party, or to other countries, in accordance with applicable data protection laws and as stated above.

For how long will we store your personal data? 

ASSA ABLOY stores the personal data as long as it is necessary to fulfill the purpose for which the data has been collected, unless we may, or are obligated by law to, store the data for a longer period of time. ASSA ABLOY will delete your data when we are no longer required by law to retain it or when it is no longer necessary for the purposes of providing the service. Upon termination of the service the data will be deleted after three (3) months of such termination.

You have the right to request access to the personal data relating to you. This includes the right to be informed whether or not personal data about you is being processed, what personal data is being processed, and the purpose of the processing.

As soon as we become aware of any inaccurate personal data being processed, we will always correct such personal data as soon as possible and notify you accordingly.
