We may share personal data with our technical subcontractors or other companies that perform assignments on our behalf. A company that processes your personal data on our behalf is called a data processor. If we engage a data processor, we enter into a data processing agreement that regulates how the data processor may process the data they are given access to and their obligations in this regard, including the purposes for which the personal data may be used.

We may also share personal data with public authorities where there is a statutory duty of disclosure.

10. DO WE TRANSFER PERSONAL DATA TO OTHER COUNTRIES?

Anteo mainly uses subcontractors in the EU/EEA, but may also use suppliers outside the EU/EEA (so-called third countries), such as the USA.

Our transfer of your personal data to third countries is based on a prior decision by the European Commission on an adequate level of protection (such as the E.U. - U.S. Data Privacy Framework for transfers to the United States) or that we enter into an agreement based on the EU Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC) with the recipient of the personal data.

11. HOW LONG DO WE STORE PERSONAL DATA?

We store your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfill the above-mentioned purposes for processing the data. However, this does not apply if storage is required by law for a longer period than the purpose indicates.

This means, for example, that any personal data processed on the basis of your consent will be deleted if you withdraw your consent.

If the basis for processing is our legitimate interest, the data will be deleted when such legitimate interest no longer exists. Data stored in accordance with statutory obligations will be deleted when the obligation ceases. For example, we have storage obligations in accordance with bookkeeping legislation. Furthermore, accounting legislation requires us to store certain accounting documents for a specified period of time, generally 3.5 years or 5 years. Information shared by candidates who applied for a job with us but did not get the job, including information provided in CVs and applications, is deleted unless we have collected consent for further storage.

Any other information shared with us in connection with inquiries, e.g. inquiries to our customer service, may, in accordance with our internal routines, be stored for up to 2 years, depending on the purpose of the inquiry and the need for any further follow-up and assessments.

12. WHAT RIGHTS DO YOU HAVE?

The data protection legislation gives you a number of rights, including the right to access, correct and delete the personal data we have stored about you.

We are committed to ensuring that the personal data we have stored about you is correct and up to date. If you discover that your data is incorrect, we encourage you to contact us. This also applies if you want your data to be deleted.

Regarding the requirement for erasure, there is an exception for the data that is necessary for us to provide a service that you still wish to have access to, or it is required by law to retain the data for a specific period of time.

You also have the right to data portability. This means that you have the opportunity to take your personal data with you in a machine-readable format.  

Furthermore, you have the right to object to the processing of personal data and the right to object to personal profiling and automated decision-making. This means that you can demand that your personal data is not analyzed to reveal your behavior, preferences, abilities or needs. However, this does not apply if the processing is necessary to fulfill an agreement that you have entered into with us or if you have previously given your explicit consent to the processing.  

You also have the right to receive a copy of the personal data we have registered about you, insofar as the duty of confidentiality does not prevent this. To ensure that personal data is disclosed to the right person, we may require that requests for access are made in writing and that identity is verified in some other way.

In some situations, you can also ask us to restrict the processing of your data.  

If you believe that we are not following what we inform you about in this privacy statement or applicable legislation, you can send us a complaint. You can also complain to the Norwegian Data Protection Authority.
