The personal data that may be processed includes names, social security numbers, addresses, contact details, invoicing details and other business-related information.
4.2 We may also process special categories of personal data (so-called sensitive personal data) and data relating to criminal offenses if these are relevant to the performance of our legal services. This may include, for example, data relating to health, political opinions or data relating to criminality relevant to the engagement.
- A description of these is given below:
- In the performance of our services and customer/client related handling
Registering you as a customer
In accordance with our commitments to register you as a customer/client, we collect and process personal data such as name, e-mail address, telephone number, role/title, address and social security number. This data is necessary for us to carry out conflict checks, background checks and to register you as a client, either as a natural person or as a contact person for a legal entity.
The processing of personal data is based on our legitimate interest to be able to contact representatives of our clients and carry out necessary checks. If you are a natural person registered as a client, the processing is based on our obligation to fulfill the contract with you.
The data collected is treated with strict confidentiality and stored for a period of ten (10) years after the completion of the relevant assignment, or longer if required by law or to fulfill other legal obligations.
Information on anti-money laundering measures
In accordance with current legislation on measures against money laundering and terrorist financing (2017:630), we are required to carry out checks to identify and verify our clients. This may require us to collect and process personal data such as name, personal identification number, copy of identity document, passport, and information on financial transactions and sources of funds.
The processing of personal data is based on the legal ground “legal obligation” as these checks are a prerequisite for us to enter into or continue a business relationship with you as a client. If you do not provide the necessary data, we cannot provide you with our legal services.
The information collected for this purpose is treated in accordance with strict confidentiality and stored in accordance with applicable legislation, for a period of at least five (5) years but not more than ten (10) years after the end of the business relationship, or longer if required by law or to comply with other legal obligations.
Invoicing of customer/client
In connection with invoicing our clients, we collect and process personal data such as name, e-mail address, telephone number, role/title, address and social security number. This information is necessary for us to be able to invoice our services and ensure that payment is received.
The processing of personal data is based on our legitimate interest to issue invoices to our clients. If you are a natural person registered as a client, the processing is based on our obligation to fulfill contractual obligations towards you.
The data collected for this purpose is treated with strict confidentiality and stored for a period of ten (10) years after the completion of the relevant assignment, or longer if required by law or to comply with other legal obligations.
Information in the context of advisory cases
In our day-to-day business, it is not always possible to provide in advance a complete list of all types of personal data that may be processed. Personal data may include contact information, mentions of individuals in documents that we prepare, as well as other information necessary to handle the client’s case.
The purpose of this processing is to be able to handle your case in the best possible way and to protect your interests.
For clients who are legal persons, as well as for contact persons (or other representatives) of our clients, the processing of personal data is based on our legitimate interest to provide our services. For clients who are natural persons, the legal basis for processing is the fulfillment of a contractual obligation relating to the management of the client’s case.
All client-related information, including personal data, is usually retained for ten (10) years after the relevant engagement has been completed, or longer if required by law or other legal obligations.
Business monitoring and statistics
After an assignment has been completed, we will process the names and contact details of the client’s representatives for business follow-up and the production of overall statistics.
The legal basis for this processing is that we have a legitimate interest in processing personal data in order to evaluate customer satisfaction.
The processing will take place during the contractual relationship and for a period of twelve (12) months after the end of the contractual relationship. Thereafter, the information will be deleted. However, the statistics produced will be designed in such a way that the data will not be attributable to the data subjects. Thus, the anonymization implies that after this measure, the data will no longer constitute personal data. The anonymized information will be stored until further notice
Direct marketing based on a balance of interests
For the purpose of providing direct marketing about Our service offering to both existing and potential customers, We may process personal data relating to customers’ representatives.
The legal basis for the processing is a balance of interests in order to satisfy Our legitimate interest in being able to inform about and offer various marketing activities to a selected target group for a limited time and to a limited extent.
The data that may be processed are name, address, telephone number and e-mail address of the place of work, as well as any information on departmental affiliation and position. The information and offer may be provided by telephone, letter, e-mail, SMS and/or similar means of communication.
Where there is a contractual relationship between the data subject’s employer and Us, processing will take place during the contractual relationship and for a period of twelve (12) months after the contractual relationship has ended. In the absence of such a contractual relationship, the personal data will be processed for a period of three (3) months. The data subject has the right to object to this processing at any time.
Direct marketing based on consent
In case we want to continue processing personal data of representatives of potential and former customers (older than twelve (12) months after the end of the contractual relationship) for marketing purposes after three (3) months have passed, the consent of the data subject is required.
Where the data subject has provided such consent, the consent constitutes the legal basis for such processing. Where the data subject has voluntarily provided his or her personal data for a specific purpose and has been informed of the processing in that context, the data subject is deemed to have consented to the processing. The data that may be processed are the name, address, telephone number and e-mail address of the workplace, as well as any information on departmental affiliation and position.
Information and offers on marketing activities may be provided by telephone, letter, e-mail, SMS and/or similar means of communication. The processing will take place for as long as the consent has not been withdrawn by the data subject. The data subject has the right to object to this processing at any time and thereby withdraw their consent.

If you do not provide the necessary information, we will not be able to handle your request or provide you with the support you need.
The data collected for this purpose is treated with strict confidentiality and stored for the duration of our ongoing relationship with you. If we have not had contact with you for a period of twelve (12) months, we will delete your information, unless longer retention is required by law or to comply with other legal obligations.
