This privacy policy covers naturum Öresunds digital channels and explains how we collect and use your personal information. It also describes your rights and how you can apply them.

2. What is a personal information?

Personal information is any kind of information that can be directly or indirectly linked to a natural person, such as name, e-mail address, social security number or telephone number. Pictures are also counted as personal information if you can clearly distinguish between them.


3. What is the processing of personal data?

Processing of personal data is everything that happens with the personal data. Every action taken with personal data constitutes a "processing". Examples of common treatments are collection, registration, organization, structuring, storage, processing, transfer and deletion.


4. What information is collected?

When you visit Naturum Öresund's digital channels or platforms, we will sometimes ask you to provide personal information. Naturum Öresund, for example, collects personal information when you start subscribing to naturum Öresund newsletter, book school programs, summer activities and study visits or when you register for participation in various events. Naturum Öresund may also process your personal data when you contact us via, for example, e-mail, telephone or Facebook. 

The type of personal data collected is normally name, e-mail address and mobile number. When registering for our programs and activities, we sometimes also ask you to state your year of birth.


5. What is the purpose of the processing of personal data?

The personal data collected is mainly used for administration and mediation of services, as well as for fulfilling a closed agreement. The processing of personal data also takes place so that we can contact you to, for example, answer your questions or comments, or if necessary contact you when booking services from us, for example. Processing of personal data also takes place so that Naturum Öresund can provide information about the company, our services and products when desired. The personal data is also processed so that we can fulfill our obligations and communicate in connection with activities, events and other offers.

If you choose to participate in programs and activities organized by naturum Öresund , the personal information may be used for marketing purposes, for example to publish the participants' names and activities in the Marine Knowledge Center's digital channels. The personal information can also be used for the purpose of marketing relevant services or activities if you so wish. 

The personal data is finally used for statistical purposes, evaluation, quality work and to develop and improve our services and products. Please note that Naturum Öresund does not use collected information to contact you unless you have explicitly asked to be contacted.

According to the Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), we may not register your personal data without your consent. If you choose to provide personal information to us, you agree that naturum Öresund  processes your personal information in accordance with this privacy policy.


7. What is a cookie and how do we use it?

7.1 Why do we use cookies?

The cookies we use on smkc.se are used to be able to give you a better user experience and based on knowledge of how the website is used can make it even better. Cookies help us to make the content more relevant and simplify for you as a visitor. We also use cookies to be able to see the choices you have previously made on our website, measure traffic on the website and keep statistics.

Naturum Öresund is the sole owner of the personal information collected. We do not sell this information to third parties. We also do not share information with others beyond what is specifically stated in this policy. Naturum Öresund will not, without your consent, pass on information about you unless applicable law requires it or it is necessary to handle your booking of a service from us.

If independent partners need personal data to fulfill nature Öresund offers, personal information is shared with them. When personal data is shared with third parties, they do not have the right to share this information further, unless required to perform the service on behalf of the Marine Knowledge Center or meet legal requirements.
