As a registered individual, you have certain rights. These rights are laid out in the General Data Protection Regulation and are detailed below.

When you wish to exercise your rights, you are welcome to contact us; contact details are provided in section 1.3 of this policy.

When you exercise your rights, our starting point is to comply with your request and respond to you within one month from the time you contact us. Handling may take up to three months if the volume or complexity of the case requires it. In such cases, we will inform you.

We will always respond to your request in writing. The different rights you may have when we process personal data about you are described below. Depending on the legal basis for our processing and the purpose of the processing, there may be exceptions or limitations to your ability to exercise your rights. If the request is manifestly unfounded or excessive, especially if it is repetitive, we may either charge a fee or refuse to comply with the request.

Personal data we process about you may be disclosed to authorities as prescribed by law and to any partners providing support services to us. This may also be necessary when delivering a service from us. Additional examples of recipients are service providers, such as those assisting us with IT services (companies managing necessary operations, technical support, and maintenance of our IT solutions). Furthermore, data we process about you may be disclosed as required to fulfil our obligations to you as the registered individual. Your personal data may also be shared with our parent company, Umeå Municipal Company AB (UKF) or other companies within the UKF group.

Data processors

If data is transferred to someone processing your personal data on behalf of INAB (so-called data processors), we provide instructions on how the receiving party should handle the personal data and confidentiality. If your personal data is shared with a company that is independently responsible for personal data, the receiving company's privacy policy applies.

Principle of Public Affairs

INAB is subject to the principle of public access, and information in public documents can be disclosed to those who request it unless the information is confidential. Your personal data will not be used for direct marketing purposes, known as profiling.

If you have protected identity or wish to remain anonymous

If you have a secrecy mark or protected registration, you must be very careful with how you handle your details. If possible, avoid sharing protected personal data with us. If you need to share protected information with us, you must also inform us that you have a protected registration or a secrecy mark. We do not have access to the registration database and cannot know in advance if you have protected personal data.

However, if you have fictitious personal details, you should not inform us but instead follow the Police recommendations to not reveal your real identity.

Remember that if you want to leave a comment or contact us anonymously, you should not provide any personal details (for example, in emails) because these details are recorded as public documents and are generally public.

Social media

When you interact with or contact us via social media, such as LinkedIn, information and personal data are always transferred to a third party (i.e., the company/organization that operates the social media platform you use). We cannot regulate this, but we are happy to answer your questions on social media. If you do not want a third party to collect the information you send to us, we recommend that you contact us by phone at +46 90 16 68 00 instead.

Your personal data is stored as long as the supplier relationship persists and thereafter for the time required or permitted according to current legislation and practice. If your personal data are referenced in invoice documentation, they will be retained for seven years in accordance with the Accounting Act. Contracts, correspondence, and documents regarding delivery from your employer where personal data appear are stored for the time that rights and obligations (including any liability and claims) persist according to the contract we have entered into with your employer, by law and current practice. If you terminate your employment with our supplier, we will delete your personal data when we receive information about it from you or your employer.

We keep your data as long as necessary to fulfil our contractual obligations towards you and according to statutory storage periods for each purpose. These obligations come from, for example, public access and confidentiality legislation, accounting and tax legislation, banking and anti-money laundering legislation, and the Archives Act. The processing may also be necessary for us to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.

This means, among other things, that we will remove or anonymize your data (so that they cannot be linked to you personally or used for other purposes) and other information in our databases when the transactions in the contract are finalized. This is provided that the information is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected or that it is deemed to have archival value based on the Archives Act. Data necessary to fulfil a contract or other legal basis, such as collected meter readings, information about contracts, invoiced products, and services, cannot always be restricted or deleted.

How we handle your social security number

We will only process your social security number when it is clearly justified considering the purpose, necessary for secure identification, or if there is some other considerable reason. We always minimize the use of your social security number as much as possible.

To protect your privacy and your personal data, we may require you to identify yourself in connection with our assistance.

Security

INAB uses IT systems to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and access to personal data. We take specific physical, technical, and organizational security measures to protect your personal data from unauthorized or unlawful processing (such as unauthorized use, loss, destruction, or damage). Only those who actually need to process your personal data to fulfil our stated purposes have access to them. We continuously adapt our security measures to the ongoing technical development in relation to reasonableness and the volume and sensitivity of personal data.

You have the option to limit the use of cookies, and you can find more information about this in our cookie policy, which you can find here (link to another website).

We and our data processors store personal data on servers located within the EU/EEA. Even though the personal data are stored within the EU/EEA, in some cases, personal data may be transferred to a third country, for example, when an IT supplier that we have contracted with needs to process the data outside the EU/EEA to provide their service (such as through a group company in the USA).

If personal data are transferred to a third country (including the USA), we always take appropriate protective measures to best protect your personal data. Such appropriate protective measures may include:

  • Ensuring that the EU Commission has decided that the country to which the personal data is transferred achieves an "adequate" level of protection equivalent to the protection level ensured by the General Data Protection Regulation.
  • Entering the EU Commission's standard contractual clauses with the recipient of the personal data in the third country. When personal data are transferred to a third country based on the EU Commission's standard contractual clauses, we assess whether there is legislation in the receiving country that affects the protection of your personal data. If necessary, we take specific technical and organizational measures so that the protection of your data remains during the transfer to the relevant country outside the EU/EEA. Due to American security legislation, however, there is a certain risk that American authorities, for the purpose of combating crime or defending national security, may access personal data transferred to the USA even though we take technical and organizational security measures.

You can contact us and request a copy of the protective measures. You can find our contact details in Chapter 1.3 of this policy.

We reserve the right to make changes to this privacy policy to the extent we deem them necessary based on changes to our personal data processing and to fulfil new legal requirements, interpretations of legal requirements, technical requirements, or to address problems or disturbances. If personal data processing is regulated in an agreement with a customer, however, the contractual provisions apply until they are changed, unless it is incompatible with law or other legally binding provisions. If there are major changes to our handling of personal data, you will be notified personally. The latest version of the privacy policy is always available on our website.
