This Privacy Policy (the “Privacy Policy”) has three purposes:

3 How do we share the personal data with other companies?
SealEco uses a number of database and programme suppliers to handle the communication with you as seamless as possible. We always enter into a contract with these external parties who are governed by confidentiality and fulfil the requirements that are imposed in existing legislation on how transfer of the personal data may be executed and how your personal data is allowed to be processed. In that way the safety and the confidentiality of your personal data is guaranteed.


4 Transfer to other countries
SealEco may come to transfer your personal data to a country outside the EU or the EEA if it is necessary for e.g. fulfilment of a contract. Such transfer will always be executed in a safe and legal way. SealEco will ensure that necessary measures are undertaken to ensure that your personal data is not transferred to an external party outside the EU or the EEA which does not meet the requirements for such processing in applicable law. E.g. the GDPR requires that the country is approved by the European Commission, the external party is certified under the Privacy Shieldprinciples (if transfer to the United States) or that a contract has been entered into which is based on the European Commission’s standard clauses. If you would like to know more about the requirements on transfers of personal data to a country outside the EU or the EEA, please read more here.

7 Changes in the Privacy Policy
Sometimes we may come to do changes in the Privacy Policy. We will send you a message if we do major changes in the Privacy Policy given what is appropriate with regards to the circumstances, e.g. by sending a message by e-mail or a SMS message to you, or through a pop-up window with information before you get access to SealEco’s webpage. In certain cases, we will inform you in advance, and your continued use of the webpage after the changes will constitute your acceptance of the changes. Therefore, we kindly advise you to ensure that you read all such messages carefully.


If you do not wish to continue to use the webpage or do not wish that we continue to process your personal data in our registers in accordance with the new version of the Privacy Policy, you can notify us, and we will erase your personal data within 30 days from your message. Note that we cannot erase your details if there are legal reasons for continued processing. If that is the case, we will notify you of the reasons for continued processing.
