This Privacy and Cookie Policy ("Privacy Policy") is intended for our website visitors and business partners.

This Privacy Policy provides an overview of QUNORTH's processing activities, including the purposes and legal basis of the processing.

2. PROCESSING ACTIVITIES
2.1 Website visitors
When you visit QUNORTH's website, www.qunorth.com, QUNORTH will be processing personal data about you, such as cookies, browser information, IP address and time spent on the website. We use cookies i.a. to improve your user experience and the functionality of our website, remember your preferences, compile statistics, personalize content and ads, analyze traffic, and to provide access to social media features. You can read more about our use of cookies in para. 6 below.
The legal basis for the processing of personal data about you relating to cookies is your explicit consent as provided in Article 6(1)(a) GDPR, unless for cookies that are strictly necessary for the functionality of the website. In case of the latter, the processing is based on QUNORTH’s legitimate interests in making a well-functioning website available, which, in QUNORTH’s view, are not overridden by your fundamental rights and freedoms as provided in Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.
Personal data collected via cookies during visits to our website are stored for different periods of time depending on the type and purpose of the cookie. For details, see para. 6 below.
2.2 Contact persons with QUNORTH's business partner
As a contact person with business partners, QUNORTH processes personal data about you when you communicate with QUNORTH, e.g., via emails in connection with QUNORTH's existing contractual relation with the company you are employed with or in connection with the conclusion or termination of a contract. QUNORTH processes business-related personal data about you, including your name, work email address, work telephone number, position, etc.
The legal basis for such processing of personal data about you is that the processing is necessary for the purposes of legitimate interests pursued by QUNORTH and that it is QUNORTH's assessment that our legitimate interests override your interests or fundamental rights and freedoms, cf. Art. 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. QUNORTH's legitimate interests are fulfilment of our contractual obligations, maintaining and enhancing business relationships, invoicing for the services your company provides to QUNORTH and/or vice versa, communicating with you if you have any questions related to our services or vice versa, and for documentation purposes.
In some cases, processing of personal data is necessary to comply with a legal obligation to which QUNORTH is subject, for instance in relation to the obligation on the preservation of accounting records pursuant to the Danish Bookkeeping Act. In such case, the legal basis for the processing is Art. 6(1)(c) of the GDPR.
QUNORTH stores data about you as long as QUNORTH communicates with you because you are QUNORTH's point of contact, 3 years after termination of the contractual relationship, or until it is no longer necessary for the establishment, exercise, or defence of a legal claim.
QUNORTH will store personal data about you to the extent it is necessary for bookkeeping purposes such as personal data related to invoicing. Such personal data will be stored for a period of 5 years from the end of the financial year to which the accounting records relate. The purpose is to comply with the legal obligation pursuant to the Danish Bookkeeping Act.
3. DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL DATA ABOUT YOU
Where relevant, QUNORTH may disclose or transfer your personal data to affiliates of QUNORTH, business partners or other collaborators for business purposes. Such third parties also include social media providers as specified in para. 5 below.
In certain specific cases, e.g., in connection with disputes, including when the disclosure of personal data about you is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of QUNORTH's legal claims, QUNORTH may disclose personal data about you to its advisers or other relevant third parties provided it is deemed necessary and lawful.
Certain recipients process personal data on behalf of QUNORTH and may only process your personal data in accordance with documented instructions given by QUNORTH and further terms and conditions stated in a data processor agreement entered with QUNORTH. These data processors are not permitted to process your personal data for their own purposes.
4. TRANSFER OF PERSONAL DATA TO THIRD COUNTRIES (COUNTRIES OUTSIDE THE EU/EEA)
In certain cases, personal data about you may be transferred to countries outside the EU/EEA. QUNORTH will ensure that the transfer takes place in accordance with applicable data protection law. This entails that any party outside of the EU/EEA that will receive personal data about you will ensure an adequate level of protection, for example, by entering into the EU Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) with QUNORTH.
QUNORTH will ensure the implementation of additional safeguards if deemed necessary on a case-by-case basis. You can request a copy of the legal basis for the transfer by contacting QUNORTH using the contact details listed in para. 1.
5. SOCIAL MEDIA
Our website features integrated plug-ins from the social media LinkedIn, X and YouTube. When you visit any of our social media pages or our website with integrated plug-ins, the social media providers will collect and process personal data by means of cookies, provided you have consented to the use of cookies. Such collection and processing of personal data will take place whether you have a social media profile or not. If you access our website, which features integrated social media plug-ins, your browser will connect to the server of the respective social media platform, load the visual presentation of the plug-in, and display the content to you. While this is happening, the social media provider will receive information about your use of the website, as well as additional personal data, such as your IP address. QUNORTH will receive anonymous demographic and geographic statistics from the social media provider about visitors to our website and our social media pages.
QUNORTH is a joint data controller together with the social media providers for the processing of personal data in connection with visits to our social media pages and our website. This means, i.a., that you can contact both QUNORTH and the social media provider if you wish to exercise your rights under the GDPR. LinkedIn, X and YouTube have primary responsibility for ensuring compliance with the GDPR and for responding to requests to exercise data subjects' rights. If you have a social media profile, you can exercise your rights through your account settings.
QUNORTH has no influence on the amount of personal data that the social media provider collects via the active plug-ins, nor on their processing of personal data about you. For details, please refer to the relevant privacy policy:
