      Removed information is retained for our own internal accounting purposes along with furnishing customer requests for old invoices.

      You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive. Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.

      We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.

      We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it may take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated.

      If you wish to exercise any of the rights set out above, please email us at info@quixel.se. Furthermore, you have a right to lodge a complaint regarding our processing of your data with the supervisory authority in the EU member state of your residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement.

  6. Data Retention.

    We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

    To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.

    By law we have to keep basic information about our customers (including Contact, Identity, Financial and Transaction Data) for seven years after they cease being customers for accounting and tax purposes.

    In some circumstances we may anonymise your personal data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.

  7. Sharing and Disclosure of Personal Data.

    We do not sell your data to any third party for marketing purposes. As a general rule, we will not forward your Personal Data to third parties without your permission. However, since we work in conjunction with partners, affiliated companies and third parties for the provisioning of our Services, we may have to share your personal data with them.

    • Subsidiaries or other group companies.

    • Affiliated Parties.

    • Professional advisers including lawyers, bankers, auditors and insurers who provide consultancy, banking, legal, insurance and accounting services.

    We only allow such third parties to process your personal data for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions and applicable data protection law.

    • Legally Compelled Disclosures

      We may disclose your Personal Data if required to do so by law or if we believe that such action is necessary to (a) conform to the law, comply with a judicial or court order or comply with legal process served on us or Affiliated Parties; (b) protect and defend our rights and property, the services, the users of the services, and/or our Affiliated Parties; or (c) act under circumstances to protect the safety of users of our services, us, or third parties.
