What personal data does Altio collect?

The most common reasons why Altio processes your personal data are that you are a private customer with ROT deductions, an employee, if you are looking for a service or if you have contacted or cooperated with Altio for any other reason. Most of this information we collect directly from you. In some cases, we also collect information from other sources, such as the Swedish Tax Agency.

The information we process depends on the reason we are processing your personal data, but it may include the following:

  • Contact information such as name, address, phone number and email. Personal data is processed when necessary to establish your identity securely or to coordinate your data between systems to ensure consistency of information about you.
  • Banking and other financial information for paying out money or invoicing.
  • Information about how you use our websites, in order to improve their user-friendliness, for example via cookies.
  • Information when participating in meetings or courses.
  • Personal data needed for employment or if you apply for a job.

Who may have access to your personal data?

Your data may be disclosed to Altio’s partners, to suppliers or to other parties who need to know it as a result of an agreement between Altio and you, because of a task in the public interest* or because of a legal obligation that Altio has.

*A task in the public interest is a task that Altio must fulfill by law or by virtue of law.

In the event of a transfer to another party, Altio will take all reasonable legal, organizational and technical measures that may be required to protect your personal data. You will be informed if we plan to disclose information about you to other organizations.
