Privacy Policy for Anda-Olsen AS

This privacy policy explains how Anda-Olsen collects and uses personal data and describes security in relation to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

The CEO of Anda-Olsen is the data controller responsible for the company's processing of personal data. If daily responsibility is delegated, this is specified under each relevant section. The delegation only covers tasks, not responsibility. The policy includes the information you are entitled to when data is collected from our website (Personal Data Act § 19) and general information about how we process personal data (Personal Data Act § 18, paragraph 1).

Purpose

Anda-Olsen's purpose for storing personal data is to communicate with customers either via phone, letter, email, or SMS. This is necessary to ensure access to information regarding products/solutions, warranty cases, product recalls, communication for online purchases, order processing, and claims follow-up.

Processing of Personal Data

www.anda.no

The IT Manager at Anda-Olsen is responsible for the daily handling of personal data on anda.no. For anda.no, Gurusoft in Sandefjord is responsible for the operation, development, and updating of the website. Data collected in connection with the website's operation is stored on servers managed by the provider. Only Anda-Olsen and the provider have access to the collected data. A data processor agreement between Anda-Olsen and Gurusoft regulates which information the provider has access to and how it should be processed.

In this context, we store personal data about employees of customers, partners/dealers, and businesses that contact Anda-Olsen to evaluate our products and services on servers hosted by Gurusoft.

Personal data we store:

  • Contact information such as name, position, phone numbers, and email address.
  • Email communication related to marketing, sales, and use of our products.
  • Usernames, passwords (one-way encrypted and cannot be retrieved), and mobile numbers for contact persons who have registered in our product and knowledge portals.
  • Managers of our customers and dealers representing larger organizations may have superuser roles, allowing them to create, maintain, and delete users from our product and knowledge portals.
  • Orders placed on behalf of our customers are stored with information about who actually placed/registered the order.

Security Certificate (SSL)

It is safe to visit our website as a security certificate is used to verify the site's identity and ensure that all communication is encrypted. We use a recognized security certificate from the leading provider Commfides (also a supplier to Altinn.no). The purpose of encryption is to ensure secure data communication between the server (our website) and the client (your browser). This includes a digital certificate to prove the website's authenticity.
