Information provided by you

When you use our services, such as by submitting a contact form or purchasing a product, you typically provide us with the following information:

• Contact information, such as name, address, e-mail and telephone number.
• Payment information.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Who do we share your data with

If you request a password reset, your IP address may be included in the reset email.

Visitors’ comments can be checked through an automatic recognition service against spam comments.

How long we retain your data

We only store the information for as long as necessary. In any case, we will store information for as long as is required by law, and where a special need arises, e.g. in the case of complaints or claims directed at us or by us.

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users who register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What rights do you have over your data

If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

You have many privacy rights that you can exercise by contacting us, including the rights to:

• Information. Get more information about how we process your personal data. If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you can request an export file containing the personal data we hold about you. This includes all data you have given us.

• Correction. Update information about you.
• Deletion. Request that information. This does not include information that we are required to store for administrative, legal or security reasons.
• Objection. We will respond to your inquiry as quickly as possible, and usually within one month at the latest. If you believe that we process personal data incorrectly, you have the right to complain to the Norwegian Data Protection Authority. We ask that you contact us first, so that we can clear up any misunderstandings.
