1. What personal data we collect.

Personal data is in most cases either collected directly from you, a third party acting on your behalf, a third party that you represent, or generated as part of your use of our services and products. Sometimes additional information is required to keep information up to date or to verify information we collect.

The personal data we might collect can be grouped into the following categories:
• Identification information: national identification number and name. We are obliged to collect documentation of such information when entering into a contractual relationship, for instance in the form of copies of your passport, driver’s license, or the like.

• Contact information: email address, phone numbers and addresses and other typical business card information. For most individuals, work- as opposed to private contact information is the only contact information we collect, process or control.

• Financial information: type of agreement, transaction information, account information.

• Information related to legal requirements: country of taxation or foreign tax payer reference, customer/company due diligence and anti-money laundering requirements.

Personal data we may collect from you:
We may collect and keep information you provide directly to us. For example, when becoming a representative or contact of a customer or collaboration partner, we collect personal data, such as name, e-mail address and phone number. In some cases, also national identification number for verification purposes. For existing private customers, income and debt information has also been collected to be able to provide you with the product or service in question.
We may also collect and keep information which you provide us with, such as messages you have sent us, e.g. feedback or a request in our digital channels. Telephone calls and chat conversations with you may also be recorded and logged for compliance reasons and for verification of orders, documentation, and for purposes of improving the quality of the services we provide. For security purposes, we may have cameras in our offices.

Personal data we may collect from third parties:
We may collect information that is publicly available and that can be retrieved from external sources; such as in registers held by governmental agencies (tax authorities, company registration offices, enforcement authorities), sanction lists (held by international organisations such as the EU and UN as well as national organisations such as Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC)), registers held by other commercial information providers providing information on e.g. beneficial owners and politically exposed persons.

IT security and development (legitimate interest)
Systems and means of processing needed to deliver services and products to you are continuously being developed and internally tested to ensure the ongoing confidentiality, integrity, availability and resilience. The testing process is by design limited to key identifiers necessary to perform the testing and all other directly or indirectly identifiable personal information are masked.
Compliance with applicable financial industry secrecy obligations are ensured in all cases.

3. Who we disclose your personal data to
We may share your personal data with others such as public authorities, NAM entities, Nordea Group companies, suppliers, service providers and business partners. Before sharing we will always ensure that we respect applicable financial industry secrecy obligations and that we comply with applicable data protection regulation.

Third parties and Nordea Group companies

We may also disclose personal data to authorities to the extent we are under statutory obligation to do so. Such authorities include national tax authorities, police authorities, enforcement authorities and supervisory authorities.
In addition, data may be disclosed, with your consent or if this is permitted pursuant to legislation, internally in NAM entities or Nordea Group and to external business partners (including correspondent banks, other banks, vendor partners of finance object and re-insurers).

• The European Commission has decided that there is an adequate level of protection in the country in question

• Other appropriate safeguards have been taken, for example the use of the standard contractual clauses (EU model-clauses) approved by the European Commission or the data processor has valid Binding Corporate Rules (BCR) in place

You can access a copy of the relevant EU model-clauses used by Nordea for transfers by going to www.eur-lex.europa.eu and search for 32010D0087

5. How long we process your personal data
We will keep your data for as long as it is needed for the purposes for which your data was collected and processed or required by laws and regulations.
In case we keep your data for other purposes than for the performance of a contract, such as for anti-money laundering, B2B marketing, bookkeeping and regulatory capital adequacy requirements, we keep the data only if necessary and/or mandated by laws and regulations for the respective purpose.
Keep in mind that retention obligations may differ within NAM, subject to applicable local legislation.

6. Your privacy rights
You as a data subject have rights in respect of personal data we process concerning you. You have the following rights;

Request access to your personal data
You have a right to access to the personal data we are processing about you. Your right to access may, however, be restricted by legislation, protection of other persons’ privacy and consideration for NAM’s business concept and business practices. NAM’s know-how, business secrets as well as internal assessments and material may restrict your right of access.

Request correction of incorrect or incomplete data
If relevant data is incorrect or incomplete, you are entitled to have the data rectified, subject to any restrictions in legislation.

Request erasure
You have the right to request erasure of your data in case:
• You withdraw your consent to the processing and there is no other legitimate reason for processing
• You object to the processing and there is no justified reason for continuing the processing
• You object to processing for direct marketing
• Processing is unlawful
• When processing personal data on minors, if the data was collected in connection with the provision of information society services

Due to the financial sector legislation we are in many cases obliged to retain personal data concerning you during your customer relationship, and even after that, e.g. to comply with a statutory obligation or where processing is carried out to manage legal claims.

Request limitation on processing of personal data
If you contest the correctness of the data which we have registered about you or lawfulness of processing, or if you have objected to the processing of the data in accordance with your right to object, you may request us to restrict the processing of these data to only storage. The processing will only be restricted to storage, until the correctness of the data can be established, or it can be checked whether our legitimate interests override your interests.
If you are not entitled to erasure of the data which we have registered about you, you may instead request that we restrict the processing of these data to only storage. If the processing of the data which we have registered about you is solely necessary to assert a legal claim, you may also demand that other processing of these data be restricted to storage. We may process your data for other purposes if this is necessary to assert a legal claim or if you have granted your consent to this.

Object to processing based on our legitimate interest
You can always object to the processing of personal data concerning you for direct marketing and profiling in connection to such marketing.

Withdraw consent(s) previously given to us at any time
Withdrawal will not affect the lawfulness of processing based on that consent before the withdrawal. Withdrawing consent to processing of personal data needed in order to deliver services and products to you may result in the termination of contractual engagements.

Request data portability
You have a right to receive personal data that you have provided to us in a machine-readable format. This right applies to personal data processed only by automated means and on the basis consent or of fulfilling a contract. Where secure and technically feasible, we may also transmit the data to another data controller.

File complaint with supervisory authorities
You have the right to file a complaint with the supervisory authority in the member state of your habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement if you believe that the processing of personal data relating to you is unlawful.
Your request to exercise your rights as listed above will be assessed given the circumstances in the individual case.
