This Privacy Policy explains how we process personal data when you visit the website, use the contact form, or sign up for the mailing list. If you visit a shop linked from the website, it may be hosted and operated on a separate platform and may have its own terms and privacy information.
We may process the following categories of personal data, depending on how you use the website. Contact inquiries: Name, email address, subject, and message content that you submit via the contact form or by email. Mailing list signups: Email address and any preference data you provide at signup. Usage and device data: IP address, approximate location, device type, browser information, pages viewed, and timestamps, typically collected through server logs and similar technical means. Cookies and similar technologies: Information collected via cookies or similar identifiers as described in the Cookie Policy.
We process personal data for the following purposes under the GDPR. To respond to inquiries and provide customer support, based on our legitimate interests and, where applicable, to take steps at your request before entering into an agreement. To send mailing list communications to subscribers, based on your consent. To operate, secure, and maintain the website, based on our legitimate interests in ensuring availability, integrity, and security. To measure and improve website performance, only where you have provided consent for optional cookies or analytics technologies, as applicable.
We may share personal data with service providers that process data on our behalf, such as website hosting, email delivery, spam protection, and IT security providers. We only share personal data to the extent necessary for the purposes described in this policy, and we require appropriate contractual safeguards.
Some service providers may be located outside Norway or the EEA. Where personal data is transferred outside the EEA, we implement appropriate safeguards, such as Standard Contractual Clauses, and additional measures where required.
We keep personal data only as long as necessary for the relevant purpose. Contact inquiries are typically retained for as long as needed to handle the inquiry and any follow-up, and thereafter for a limited period unless longer retention is required due to legal obligations or a documented need. Mailing list data is retained until you unsubscribe or we delete the list, subject to reasonable backup retention.
You may have the right to request access, rectification, deletion, restriction, objection, and data portability, depending on the circumstances. Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Norwegian Data Protection Authority.
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal data against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure, or access.
The website is not intended for children, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect operational, legal, or regulatory changes. The “Last updated” date will indicate when changes were made.
