• Form Field Names – This includes website field names such as "email", "address" and "quantity" when a person purchases a product or service. The pixel does not capture field values unless an advertiser includes them as part of advanced matching or optional values.

This data is sent for the purpose of optimizing the content of our website, creating custom ads such as targeted marketing on Facebook as well as analyzing the conversion that is the result of our ads.

We process this information for security reasons. Our basis for processing is our legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f) of the General Data Protection Regulation).

Our registration of guests is stored at the reception for a short period of time. Our visitor register is stored securely and reviewed only if there is a specific need for it, e.g. in connection with a security breach. The register is reviewed only by persons who have a work-related need for it.

We indicate the places where we use CCTV in accordance with Section 3(1) of the Danish Act on Video Surveillance. All recordings are stored safely and are played only if necessary, e.g. in case of a security breach. Recordings are played exclusively for people who have a work-related need for it. The recordings are typically overwritten automatically after a short period of time unless a problem is identified that requires scrutiny, such as theft.

3.6 Other general purposes of data processing

We may enrich the information described above with information from other sources. This may be publicly available information – including information that we obtain through generally available sources.

Information that we have obtained for the purposes described above may also be processed by Hello Retail for compliance with the laws and regulations to which Hello Retail is subject in connection with the operation of our company or to fulfil various reporting or disclosure obligations under applicable laws and regulations (Article 6(1)(c) of the General Data Protection Regulation).

4. Sharing your data with others

Hello Retail may disclose your personal data internally within the group, to suppliers and/or service providers in connection with the general operation of our business.

Hello Retail may also disclose your personal data to a public authority in situations where we are specifically bound to disclose your personal data in accordance with the laws and notification obligations to which we are subject.

We try to limit the disclosure of personal data in personally identifiable form and thus the disclosure of information that can be attributed to you personally.

Hello Retail also entrusts your personal data to data processors, e.g. in connection with the administration of our IT systems and in connection with our marketing. Our data processors process your personal data solely for our purposes and on our instructions. We enter into data processor agreements with our data processors to ensure that the required security is in place and to protect the data and comply with our data protection obligations.

5. Transfer of personal data to countries outside the EU/EEA

In connection with our processing of your personal data, we may transfer the information to countries outside the EU/EEA. Data protection legislation in these countries may be less restrictive than it is in Denmark and the rest of the EU/EEA. In some countries, however, the European Commission has determined that the data protection level is in line with the level of protection in the EU/EEA. If we transfer personal data to countries where this is not the case, the transfer of your personal data to these countries outside of the EU/EEA will be based on the standard transfer contracts (standard contractual clauses) drawn up by the European Commission or another similar transfer basis specifically designed to ensure an adequate level of protection.

You can read more about the transfer of personal data to countries outside the EU/EEA on the European Commission's website.

For further information about our transfer of personal data to countries outside EU/EEA, please contact gdpr@helloretail.com

6. Storage period, data integrity and security

Your personal data is stored no longer than is necessary to meet the purposes for which it has been collected. When your data is no longer necessary, we will ensure that it is deleted in a safe manner.

It is our policy to protect personal data by taking adequate technical and organizational security measures.

We have implemented security measures that will ensure data protection for all the personal data we process.

7. Your rights

As a data subject, you have a number of rights under the General Data Protection Regulation. Please contact us if you want to exercise your rights.

You may withdraw any consent unconditionally and at any time. This can be done by sending an e-mail to us (see the e-mail address above). Withdrawal of your consent will not have any negative impact. However, it may mean that we cannot honour specific requests from you in the future. Withdrawal of your consent will not affect the lawfulness of processing on the basis of your consent before it is withdrawn. Furthermore, it will not affect any processing performed on another legal basis.

In addition, you may – unreservedly and at any time – raise objections to our processing when it is based on our legitimate interest.

Your rights also include the following:

• Right to access: You have the right to gain access to the personal data we process about you.
• Right to rectification: You have the right to have incorrect personal data about yourself corrected and incomplete personal data completed.
• Right to erasure (right to be forgotten): Under certain circumstances, you have the right to have your personal data erased prior to the time when we normally delete it.
• Right to restriction of processing: Under certain circumstances, you have the right to have the processing of your personal data restricted. If you are entitled to restricted processing, we will from that time on only process the data – with the exception of storage – with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest.
• Right to objection: You have the right to object to our processing of your personal data under certain circumstances – and always if the processing is for direct marketing purposes.
• Right to data portability: Under certain circumstances, you have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and to transmit this personal data from one data controller to another.
• Right to lodge a complaint: You can lodge a complaint with the Danish Data Protection Agency at any time regarding our processing of personal data. For more information, see datatilsynet.dk where you can also find further information about your rights as a data subject.

Specifically in regard to rectification we ask that you keep the personal information that you provide to us current and that you correct any information you have provided us by updating your Hello Retail profile, either business profile or wish list profile.
