When does Akademiska Hus have the right to process your personal data?

Akademiska Hus has the right to process your personal data as required to fulfil our obligations towards you under an agreement which exists or which will be entered into between you and Akademiska Hus, or which is required to fulfil Akademiska Hus’ obligations in accordance with obligations under applicable statutes or ordinances. In other situations, Akademiska Hus has the right to process personal data when the company has a legitimate interest in doing so, such as to be able to convey information on our operation when you have registered for a service.

Akademiska Hus also has the right to process your personal data if you have given consent to such processing.

Who has access to your personal data?

Your personal data is used by Akademiska Hus and, where appropriate, by Akademiska Hus’ personal data processor. We do not give out personal data to other companies or to the authorities if we are not obliged to do so on grounds of law, ordinance or decision by the authorities or to protect our rights or those of a third party.

We never pass on, sell or exchange your personal data for marketing purposes with third parties.

Transfer to third country

Akademiska Hus does not transfer your personal data to countries outside the EU/EEA unless this has been specially stated when you provided your personal data to us.

For how long does Akademiska Hus retain your personal data?

Akademiska Hus retains your personal data for as long as necessary to enable us to fulfil the purposes of the processing in each specific case.

Personal data which belongs to a tenant is, accordingly, to be weeded out when the tenancy relationship ceases, provided that there is no need for the data to be saved, for example, for bookkeeping purposes.

What rights do you have?

You have the right at any time (free of charge once a year) to request information on what personal data we have retained about you. Your request must be in writing and signed in your own hand, and must contain information on your name and Swedish civil registration number. We require this to ensure that we are releasing the information to the correct person.

If your data is incorrect, incomplete or irrelevant, you can request that this be rectified. You also have the right to have your data deleted. We are not, however, permitted to delete your data if there is a statutory requirement to retain it, such as bookkeeping regulations, or where there are other legitimate reasons why the data must be retained, for example unpaid debts.

You may withdraw your consent to us processing your personal data at any time.

Any request for an extract from a register, information, rectification or deletion of incorrect information is to be sent to:

Akademiska Hus Aktiebolag
Carolin Åberg Sjöqvist
Box 483
401 27 Göteborg

The information will be sent to your address on file in the Swedish central population database.

You have the further right, where appropriate, to lodge a complaint with the Swedish Data Protection Authority (Datainspektionen), www.datainspektionen.se, which is the supervisory authority for personal data processing.

How is your data protected?

Akademiska Hus works constantly to take all appropriate technical and organisational measures which in each individual case is required to protect your personal data, and, in general, to ensure that processing is carried out in accordance with applicable legislation.
