1. Introduction

In the same way as for society as a whole, Rodolfo AB (“Rodolfo”), our customers, employees and suppliers are affected by digitization and globalization which has led to a significant increase in the use and spreading of personal data. Digitization means increased opportunities, but also a greater need for protection of the data subjects' personal data and integrity.

3. Data Protection Requirements

3.1 Legal ground for Processing

Personal data may only be processed if certain conditions are met, for example (a) if the individual to whom the personal data pertains has given his or her consent to the processing; (b) the processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the individual is a party; (c) the processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation of Rodolfo; or (d) Rodolfo’s legitimate interest to process personal data outweighs the individual’s interest of not having his or her personal data processed.

3.2 Data Processing Principles

Lawful processing, accuracy and transparency: When processing Personal Data within Rodolfo we shall make sure that the processing is lawful and that we are transparent towards the Data Subjects.

Data minimization: Within Rodolfo we shall never collect and handle more Personal Data than is required to perform the purpose for which the data was collected. That means that we must ask ourselves at each collection of Personal Data, if it is required. If the purpose for the data processing has expired, we must delete the Personal Data that is no longer needed.

Purpose limitation: When collecting Personal Data, we must have a clear and legitimate purpose with the collection and further processing. If the purpose ends, we must delete the Personal Data processed under that purpose. If we want to process Personal Data for a new purpose, it must not be incompatible with the original purpose, for instance outside of what the Data Subject concerned would reasonably expect. We must also make sure to inform the Data Subject about this, and under which legal ground we are processing the Personal Data.

Accuracy: Personal data must be accurate and up to date. Personal data that is inaccurate or incomplete should be erased or corrected.

Storage limitation: Personal data should only be stored for as long as is necessary for the purposes for which it is processed, or as required by applicable law. When the retention period has expired, it should be erased in a permanent and secure way. If we want to keep Personal Data for a longer period than required for the purpose which is was collected, we must see to it that the data no longer can be connected to a Data Subject, directly or indirectly (anonymization). For Personal Data received from a Data Subject that we have a customer like relation with, we keep the Personal Data for a time period constituting best practice determined by the national Data protection authorities in each country.

Integrity and confidentiality: Personal data shall be protected, against unauthorized or illegal treatment and against loss, destruction or accidental injury. Rodolfo, will follow appropriate technical and organizational procedures to protect personal data.

Accountability: Rodolfo is responsible for ensuring that the principles of personal data processing are followed when processing personal data and able to show how they are complied.

3.3 Data Subjects rights

Rodolfo shall respond to Data Subject’s requests in the manner required by applicable law or otherwise deemed reasonably practical and appropriate in consultation with the CIO.

Transparency and information: Individuals whose personal data is being processed should be provided with notice there of. Such notice should be concise, easily accessible, be written in clear and plain language, and must contain certain specific information.

Access rights: An individual may request to receive information regarding Rodolfo’s processing of personal data.

Rights to rectification and erasure: An individual may request to have personal data corrected or erased.

Right to object: An individual may request the (automatic) processing of personal data to be restricted.

Right to object: Applies when personal data is processed to perform a task of public interest, as part of the exercise of an administrative authority or after a weighing of interests. An individual has the right to complain against Rodolfo’s processing of his/her personal data. An individual has the right to compensation for damage.

3.4 Data Controllers and Data Processors Obligations

Where processing is to be carried by a processor on behalf of a controller, the controller shall use only processors providing sufficient guarantees to implement appropriate technical and organizational measures in such a manner that processing will meet the requirements of Data Protection Laws and ensure the protection of the rights of the data subject. There shall be a legal binding agreement between the Data controller and the Data Processor, which fulfils the requirements in the Data Protection Laws, and in which the distribution of responsibilities between the parties is specified regarding the personal data processing:

Data protection by design and by default: Each new service or business process introduced by Rodolfo that involves the processing of personal data should be designed to take the protection of such data into consideration, for example by ensuring that necessary security measures are built into its design (“privacy by design”). Each such new service or business process should also be designed to ensure that, by default, only personal data which is necessary for the specific purpose of the processing is processed (“privacy by default”).

Data protection impact assessment: Where a type of processing, in particular one using new technologies such as new IT systems or cloud services, is likely to result in a high risk to the privacy of an individual, Rodolfo should, prior to the processing, carry out an assessment of the impacts the contemplated processing activities may have on the protection of personal data. Rodolfo will follow The Swedish Data Protection Authority´s guidelines on impact assessment.

Data breach notification: Employees who suspect that this policy or relevant data protection laws have been violated should contact Rodolfo´s CIO immediately in order for Rodolfo to be able to comply with statutory notification requirements.

Provision of all Data Subjects rights: As stated in chapter 3.1 of this policy.

Security measure: An employee who has access to personal data must only process the data in accordance with the purpose of the processing, and may not share, distribute, or otherwise disclose the personal data to a third party unless instructed to do so by Rodolfo. Appropriate technical and organizational measures should be implemented to protect personal data against accidental or unlawful destruction, accidental loss or alteration, unauthorized disclosure or access, and any other unlawful forms of processing. Such measures should be appropriate to the risks represented by the processing. Transfers of personal data to entities outside the EU and EEA, is only allowed when the importing entity has provided sufficient assurances that the personal data will be adequately protected. This may be accomplished by using one of the EU Commission’s standard data transfer agreements. Consult the CIO for further information.

Training and awareness: Rodolfo provides adequate training for all employees based on the employees role and responsibilities.
