Configura may ask individuals if they wish to participate in market research, and then contact them if they give us their permission. Configura does not contact customers or individuals for marketing purposes for those persons who have contacted Configura directly to opt out of our direct marketing programs. Configura will never sell contact data to a third party, but may share it in order to provide a requested service. In that case the third party will use the data for that purpose alone.

You have the following rights in relation to our processing of your personal data.

If you wish to exercise any of these rights, you can do this by contacting Configura at privacy@configura.com. In order to comply with your request, we may ask you to verify your identity. We may charge you a reasonable administrative fee when a request is manifestly unfounded or excessive, particularly if it is repetitive.
Storage and Transfer of Data
Configura may store and process the personal data that it collects in Sweden or any other country in which Configura or its affiliates, subsidiaries or agents maintain facilities with adequate levels of data protection in place. Configura may transfer personal data to Configura databases in countries other than where it was provided. Where we transfer your data outside the European Economic Area, we will do so on the basis of: (i) an adequacy decision by the European Commission; (ii) EU standard contract clauses; or (iii) another valid transfer mechanism under the GDPR. You may, at any time, request further information regarding such transfers and request copies of the safeguards used by us for such transfers– please see contact information below.
Data may be temporarily transferred to a vendor or business partner to provide services for Configura, such as mailing information or processing credit card transactions. These vendors and business partners are required to protect and manage the personal data to the same high standards Configura uses, and they cannot use the personal data for purposes other than to provide the services Configura has requested.
Configura may disclose or transfer your personal information if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a) satisfy an applicable law, regulation, legal process or enforceable governmental request; (b) enforce applicable Configura's Terms of Use, License or Service Agreements and/or protect and defend the rights or property of Configura; (c) detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues; (d) to protect against imminent harm to rights, property or safety of Configura, its employees, agents, and/or users, or members of the public at large as required or permitted by law; or (e) facilitate a reorganisation, merger or acquisition of our business in the event such situation would occur.
How We Protect Your Information
Configura protects personal data under its control by industry standard physical, technical, and administrative security practices and measures, in order to prevent loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, loss, alteration, or destruction. Configura limits access to personal information to those who have a business need. In addition, we train our employees about the importance of confidentiality and maintaining the privacy and security of your information. We commit to taking appropriate disciplinary measures to enforce our employees' privacy responsibilities.
Additionally, when Configura transmits sensitive personal data (such as a credit card number) over the Internet, Configura protects it through the use of encryption, such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption. Configura will use its best efforts to quickly work to remedy any vulnerabilities found in our software and to alert our customers about any potentially dangerous vulnerabilities. If you have questions about Configura's commitment to security or concerns about a security issue in one of our products or sites, please contact Configura at support@configura.com.
Data Retention Time
For customers, personal information will be saved for as long as we have a customer relationship with you and thereafter for up to twenty-four (24) months. Our customer relationship with you applies during the term of the agreement, when you are listed as a contact person or similar, and for as long as you interact with us, for example by contacting us, visiting our website or clicking on links we have sent via e-mail. In some cases, legal or regulatory reasons require that personal data not be deleted. For example, according to Swedish law, we are required to keep billing information for 7 years.
