7. Sale and sharing of personal information

RASKIMPORT AS does not sell personal information in exchange for monetary payment.

However, certain disclosures involving targeted advertising, advertising cookies or audience measurement may be legally defined as a “sale”, “sharing” or use for targeted advertising in some jurisdictions.

Where required, customers can opt out through the privacy-choice or data-sharing opt-out page available on SVAICO.com.

We will honour valid privacy requests as required by applicable law.

8. International transfers

RASKIMPORT AS is established in Norway, but Shopify and other service providers may process or store personal information in other countries.

These countries may have different data-protection laws from your country.

Where personal information is transferred outside Norway, the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, we rely on appropriate legal mechanisms where required, such as:

  • An adequacy decision.
  • Standard Contractual Clauses.
  • Equivalent approved contractual safeguards.
  • Another legally permitted transfer mechanism.

Service providers may also implement additional technical and organisational safeguards.

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy.

  • Accounting and tax requirements.
  • Customs requirements.
  • Product warranty and consumer claims.

In general:

  • Order, transaction, invoice and accounting information is retained for the period required by applicable accounting and tax law.
  • Customer account information is retained while the account remains active and for a reasonable period afterwards.
  • Customer-service, return and warranty correspondence is retained while necessary to resolve the matter and handle possible claims.
  • Marketing information is retained until you unsubscribe, withdraw consent or the information is no longer required.
  • Security logs and technical information are retained for a limited period appropriate to security and troubleshooting needs.

Information may be retained for longer where necessary to comply with law, resolve disputes or establish, exercise or defend legal claims.

Information may also be anonymised so that it can no longer reasonably identify you. Anonymised information may be retained for statistical and analytical purposes.

We use reasonable technical and organisational safeguards designed to protect personal information against:

  • Unauthorised access.
  • Accidental loss.
  • Misuse.
  • Alteration.
  • Disclosure.
  • Destruction.

However, no system, transmission method or storage solution can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

You are responsible for keeping account credentials confidential. Contact us promptly if you believe an account or transaction has been compromised.
