Alumeco ApS, Næsbyvej 26, 5000 Odense C, Denmark, business registration number: DK19851974 is a company  registered and incorporated under the laws of Denmark. In addition, the mentioned group companies belonging to Alumeco ApS are made up of numerous legal entities with offices located across the globe.

Due to the Alumeco Group structure – including in particular the extent of shared services and the consequent joint data responsibility, this external privacy and cookie policy ("Privacy Policy") applies across the group. Each entity of Alumeco to which this Privacy Policy is relevant is, along with Alumeco ApS, the data controller for the processing of personal data in the respective entity.

Alumeco is committed to following the requirements and obligations in relation to data privacy in accordance with applicable law, including the EU General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR"). Therefore, we have secure and adequate data processing procedures in place.

In Alumeco’s interaction with customers, suppliers, website visitors and others, Alumeco is granted access to personal data concerning natural persons ("Data Subjects"). The subject for this Privacy Policy is this processing of data. Below, Alumeco has provided an overview of the processing activities in which personal data are processed, including among others the purpose thereof and the legal bases. If at any time you wish to contact us, if you have any question to this Privacy Policy or if you wish to exercise your data subject rights, you may reach out to our GDPR team at GDPR@alumeco.dk.

Customers, suppliers, trading partners, or other business partners

Categories of Data Subjects:

Alumeco processes data about contact persons employed with or otherwise representing former, current and potential customers, suppliers, trading partners and other business partners. As a contact person at a customer, supplier, trading partner, or another business partner, Alumeco processes your personal data as a Data Subject when you communicate with Alumeco, e.g., via emails in connection with Alumeco's existing contractual relation with the company you are employed with or in connection with the conclusion or termination of a contract.

Purposes:

The purpose with the processing of personal data is to be able to offer a professional service towards our customers, suppliers, trading partners, etc. The registered personal data is therefore used for providing services to marketing, sales, purchase, manufacturing, delivery, market research, product development, business development and statistics.

Types of data:

Alumeco processes ordinary data including contact information in the form of names of the Data Subjects, e-mail addresses, telephone numbers, job positions, place of work, etc.

Legal basis:

The legal basis for such processing of your personal data is that the processing is necessary for the purposes of legitimate interests pursued by Alumeco and it is Alumeco's assessment that our legitimate interests override your interests or fundamental rights and freedoms, cf. Art. 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. Alumeco's legitimate interests are to be able to offer a professional service towards our customers, suppliers and trading partners and fulfilment of our contractual obligations, maintaining and enhancing customer relationships and other partnerships, invoicing for the services your company provides to Alumeco and/or vice versa, communicating with you if you have any questions related to our services or vice versa, and for documentation purposes.

It is estimated that Alumeco’s interest in being able to process personal data for the listed purposes including our legitimate interest in providing you with our goods and services and securing prompt payment of any fees, costs and debts in respect of our services, surpasses the Data Subject’s interest in the personal data not being processed by Alumeco. In particular, the personal data is a very limited dataset and primarily related to business related contact details.

In rare cases, the legal basis for the processing of your personal data is Art. 6(1)(b) of the GDPR. This is either because the processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a direct party or because it is necessary in order to take steps at the request of you prior to entering into a contract.

In some cases, processing of personal data is necessary in order to comply with a legal obligation to which Alumeco 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.

Storage period:

If you are a contact person at a customer supplier, trading partner, or another business partner, Alumeco will store personal data about you as long as Alumeco communicates with you because you are Alumeco's point of contact. As a main rule, Alumeco deletes personal data either 3 years after termination of the contractual relationship with the company you are representing, or 3 years after the last interaction with you or the company you are representing, unless a further retention is deemed necessary for the establishment, exercise, or defense of a legal claim. Hereafter, your personal data will be deleted.

Alumeco will store your personal data to the extent it is necessary for bookkeeping purposes such as personal data related to invoicing. This period may vary depending on local legislation in the countries where Alumeco operates. In Denmark, 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, cf. the Danish Bookkeeping Act.

Categories of recipients:

• Business partners of Alumeco on an as-needed basis.
• Alumeco group companies on an as-needed basis.
• Data processors that process personal data on behalf of Alumeco, according to data processing agreements and under obligation to sustain sufficient technical and organisational measures and Alumeco is obliged to control that the applied data processors are acting in accordance with Alumeco’s instructions.
• In accordance with requests from public authorities and in case of court orders.
• Advisors of Alumeco, e.g. if the disclosure of your personal data is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defense of Alumeco's legal claims.

 

In certain cases, your personal data may be transferred to countries outside of the EU/EEA. Alumeco ensures that such transfer will be carried out in accordance with the applicable data protection laws. This entails that any party outside of the EU/EEA that will receive your personal data will ensure an adequate level of protection, for example, by entering into the EU standard contractual clauses ("SCCs") with Alumeco. Alumeco will ensure the implementation of supplementary safeguards if deemed necessary in the specific case. You may receive a copy of the legal basis for transfers upon request.
