This Privacy Policy covers personal information concerning individuals who do business with the company, individuals who contact the company, contacts who act on behalf of legal entities in business with the company, as well as other contacts (hereinafter collectively referred to as “customers” or “you”).
II. Purpose and legal obligation
J&CO strives to comply with all applicable data protection legislation and this policy is based on applicable data protection laws, as well as the General Data Protection Regulation, cf. Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council (EU) 206/679 of 27 April 2016.
III. Personal information and processing by Jónatansson & CO
We collect and store various personal information about our customers. Different personal information may be collected about you depending on whether you are doing business with the company yourself or whether you are acting on behalf of a legal entity in doing business with the company.
IV. Disclosure to third parties
J&Co may share your personal information with third parties, such as in connection with their contractual relationship with the company, or for legal services to you or the company for which you are a contact.
We may also disclose your personal information to third parties to the extent permitted or required by applicable law or regulation, such as to governments, courts, other parties to disputes, witnesses, customer partners, or other interested parties.
Personal information may also be shared with third parties who provide us with IT services or other services related to processing and which are part of the company's operations.
Finally, personal information about you may be disclosed to the extent permitted or required by applicable law or regulation or in response to legal action such as searches, subpoenas, or court orders.
V. Security of personal information
J&Co strives to take appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect personal data, taking into account its nature. These measures are intended to protect personal data against accidental loss or alteration and against unauthorized access, copying, use or disclosure. Examples of these include access controls in J&Co's systems and data encryption where applicable.
VI. Changes and corrections to personal information.
We take great care to ensure that the personal information we process is both accurate and relevant. Therefore, it is important that the company is notified of any changes that may occur to your personal information.
You have the right to have inaccurate personal data about you corrected. Taking into account the purposes of the processing of personal data, you also have the right to have incomplete personal data about you completed, including by providing further information.
VII. Your rights
You have the right to obtain confirmation as to whether or not we process personal data about you, and if so, you can request access to the information and how the processing is conducted. You have the right to transfer your data. You have the right to rectification and erasure ("right to be forgotten"). You also have the right to complain to a data protection supervisory authority and to object to any direct marketing communications.
In certain circumstances, you may request that personal data concerning you be erased without delay, for example if the processing or storage of the information is no longer necessary in relation to the purposes of the processing or because you have withdrawn your consent to the processing of the personal data and there is no other legal basis for the processing. You always have the right to withdraw your consent if the processing is based on consent.
You can then request that the processing of your information be restricted. This may apply when you do not want the information to be deleted, for example because you need it to defend against a claim, but you also do not want it to be further processed by J&Co.
You also have the right to object to the processing of personal information if the processing is based on the company's legitimate interests.
Please note that your rights set out above are not absolute. We may be required by law to refuse a request for deletion or access to data. In such cases, the Company may refuse your request on the grounds of the Company's rights, such as intellectual property rights, or the rights of others, such as privacy, if the Company believes those rights are overridden.
VIII. Contact information and complaint to the Privacy Office
If you have any questions or wish to exercise your rights described in this policy, please contact us, cf. Article 9 of this policy.
If you are dissatisfied with the company's processing of personal information, you can send a complaint to the Icelandic Data Protection Authority (www.personuvernd.is).
