  • Carrying out controls to prevent fraud and financial crime
  • Managing the relationship to our investors and business partners, including marketing of services.

 

In the process of handling job applications we will register and process information about you. We process general personal information from the job application including competence profile, position and current place of employment, education, professional qualifications and other CV information. If selected for an interview we will send a consent form with further required information. Personal information are deleted in connection with rejection of applicants.

This could be when we or the customer have a business or commercial reason, such as administrate the services that the investor has requested, to use your personal data, need to prevent abuse and loss, or want to use it for marketing purposes. We will only do so if our interest clearly outweighs your interest in not having your personal data processed by us, cf. the GDPR art. 6.1(f).

 

What personal data do we register and use?
We typically process the following types of personal data:

  • Basic personal information, for instance your name, address, contact information, country of residence, education and occupation.
  • Identification documentation, for example a photocopy of your passport, driving licence, or other documentation required by law.

 

How long do we store your personal data?
We keep your data only for as long as it is needed for the purpose for which your data were registered and used. Therefore, we keep your information as long as we are providing a service to you. When your business connection with us has terminated we normally keep your data for a further 5 years. This is primarily due to our obligations under the Bookkeeping Act, the Anti-Money Laundering Act and requirements from the Financial Supervisory Authority.
