The more specific personal data that we use for delivering specific services, including email invitations, that are not necessary for bookkeeping or maintenance of the relation and communication between you and us, are only processed as part of delivering the specific service to you and is duly deleted when delivery of the service is concluded.

We have taken technical and organisational measures to protect your information against incidental or illegal deletion, publication, loss, degradation, unauthorised access, misuse or otherwise processed contrary to relevant legislation.

At any time, you may withdraw your consent for us to process your personal data where that is not necessary for us to deliver the service (see the list of data supplied and controlled by you in the section Categories of personal data). For the personal data that is needed for us to provide the service we offer you may delete your account if you do not want us to process that data.

Our advertising partners may process your personal data. Your ability to manage your consent for these to process your personal data depends on your and the provider's residency.

You may also delete or block your cookies as described above, and you are free to contact us to delete your account. You may get in touch with us through our website.

If you choose to withdraw your consent, this will not affect the legality of our processing of your personal data up until your withdrawal, as this may be based on any consent you have given us earlier on. Withdrawal of consent will, therefore, only affect how and what we process your data from this point in time and going forward.

We may choose to keep processing specific kinds of data, where these may serve to protect other users or our services. Examples of this include:

  • Cyberbullying or harassment
  • Repeatable misuse or disregard for our guidelines
