Contact forms

When enquiries are made through our contact form provided on the website or other means of direct communication, personal data such as name and email-address are required for submission. This voluntary transmission of personal data is collected and retained for the purpose of responding to requests and offering support to users of our programs and services. The recipients are limited to authorized personnel and the personal data is not shared with any third parties, nor is there a cross-border transfer of such data to third countries.

User Data in Vemcount

In order to use and access the services that we provide in Vemcount, you will need to provide us with your personal information to set up an account. Each software user of our Customer are required to be registered, which entails the storage of personal data, such as name, user name, email address and assigned company. These contact details are necessary for the entry into and performance of a contract with our Customer and for the purpose of contacting employees and representatives of the Customer in connection with enquiries and customer support. The processing of this personal data is likewise contract-based. Furthermore, the Customer has the option to forward reports to other persons, whose data they control, in which case personal data such as email address and phone number will be logged in our system in order to provide this service. These personal data are not shared with third parties and there is no transfer of personal data across borders.

Job applications

If you are a jobseeker, personal data such as the application and CV, contact details and attached photo, which you have submitted voluntarily, will be stored for a limited time in order to evaluate your potential as a candidate for the job position. These are only shared with staff whom are involved in the job application evaluation process. You will be informed of the nature, scope and purpose of the processing of personal data at the first point of collection. 

Google

Vemco Group has integrated Google Analytics as a component on this website and uses Google Adwords for tracking and remarketing.

Google Analytics is a web analytics service that collects, gathers and analyzes the behavior of website visitors. Google Analytics places cookies on your computer, which store information about access time, the location from which the access was made and the frequency of visits. This information is not personally identifiable. The purpose of the processing is to understand the traffic on our website. Google Analytics uses the collected data to evaluate the use of our websites in terms of activities and origin of the users, which are passed on to authorized personnel at Vemco Group in the form of online reports.

Google Adwords is an advertising system in which advertisers bid on certain keywords for ads to appear on Google’s search results. A code is used to track conversions on the website from the clickable ads and cookies are placed on your computer to show advertisements you may be interested in when you leave the website. This information is not personally identifiable.

The purpose of the processing is to better personalize the advertisements shown to you, based on your previous behavior on our website and to optimize our paid search budget.

You are entitled to object to the collection of personal data and further processing of such data at any time. You can choose to deny the setting of cookies on our website by adjusting the web browser in use, and by the same means, delete any cookies that may already be stored by Google Analytics at any time. If you wish to completely opt-out of any processing of data conducted by Google Analytics, it is possible to download and install a browser add-on (https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout), which will effectively prevent any transmission about visitor behavior to Google Analytics.

Further information about the data protection provisions of Google that apply to the processing of personal data is to be found here https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy and

Lawful basis for processing the data

The active opt-in of the processing of cookies constitutes consent. You are presented with the purpose of the processing and the option to change browser settings insofar that such processing is unwanted. The same applies to cookies placed by Google for web analytics and remarketing purposes.

The processing of personal data transmitted through contact forms on the website or any other means of direct communication is based on our legitimate interests in wanting to provide our Customer with support and improved services.

The data stored in Vemcount about the software users of our Customers are processed in order to perform our part of a contract. Furthermore, the email addresses and phone numbers of third parties to whom reports have been sent are logged in our system in order to fulfill the interests of our Customer.

The processing of personal data in the context of reviewing job applications and evaluating candidates for job positions is consented to upon submission of the application.

Data retention periods

Any personal data is retained by the controller only for the duration of time that is necessary for fulfilling the purpose of processing the data, while also taking into account compliance with legal requirements under applicable laws. The processing of personal data shall cease by deletion or destruction, when the stated purpose is no longer applicable.

The duration of each type of cookie on our website is detailed in our cooke policy. Enquiries made through our support system will be kept only for a maximum of 1 year or for the duration of time it takes for the problem to be solved. Once this storage period expires, this data will be erased. The contact details of Vemcount users are stored until the end of the customer relationship. Job applications are erased when the position has been filled or after 6 months at the latest, unless otherwise agreed.

If the grounds for making a request is valid, Vemco group will ensure that the request is complied with without undue delay.

You are at any time entitled to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority of the EU country, in which the main establishment is based.

Security

At Vemco Group we prioritize the trust that is placed on us as a data controller. We are committed to ensure that any personal data we may process in providing our services are subject to the most complete protection in line with the GDPR. We have implemented a number of general organizational and technical measures to secure this, including: 

Access control to personal information, so as to only grant access where this is necessary.

Data Processing Agreement with processors responsible for processing personal data on behalf of the company.

Ensure that staff working with personal information are subject to confidentiality agreements.

Personnel who have access to IT systems are provided with security training.

Completion of risk assessment and documentation of all systems that process personal data, in order to ensure an informed basis for the security level of the processing of personal data in the company.

 

Compliance and co-operation with supervisory authorities

At Vemco Group, we check up regularly on our compliance with our privacy policy and other policies related to information security. When we receive formal written complaints, we will contact the sender to inquire about the details of the complaint. We cooperate with relevant legislative authorities, e.g. Datatilsynet, in connection with resolving complaints about the transmission of personal data, which we cannot solve directly with our users.

 

Changes

Our privacy policy can be subject to changes from time to time. Any changes in this privacy policy will be stated on this page. We therefore encourage you to review this policy regularly.
