Fairec’s treatment of your personal data
We only collect and process personal data about you when we need to, and for a specific purpose - which change depending on your relationship with us.

Who we are and how to contact us
“We” are (the company responsible for processing your personal data):

Fairec ApS, Company reg. no.: 45143562
Store Kongensgade 130, 1264 København K, Denmark

You can always reach us at:
E-mail: info@fairec.io

Fairec ApS (hereafter Fairec, we or us) is the data controller for the processing of your personal data described in this policy. This means we have a responsibility to keep your personal data safe, to only use it for legal purposes, and to inform you about it – so that you can exercise your rights.

1. What this policy covers
At Fairec, we respect your privacy and inform you of how your personal data is processed by us. Here you will find information about which data Fairec processes, for what purposes, the legal basis for the processing, for how long the information is processed, and your rights under GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679). This privacy policy governs the manner in which Fairec collects, uses, maintains, and discloses information about you. This privacy policy also applies to the website (www.fairec.io) and all products and services offered by Fairec.

2. Legal basis
For us to be able to process your personal data, we must have a legal basis for each personal data processing. There are six available legal bases under the GDPR and there are four that are relevant to us:
- Consent – You have given us permission to process your personal data for a specific purpose, being fully informed about what data we process, how, and why. You can withdraw your consent at any time, after which we will stop any process for this purpose, without a negative impact on any contract with us.
- Agreement – You have entered into an agreement with us or have asked us to do so. We will manage your personal data to fulfill the terms and conditions of the agreement.
- Legal obligation – We, as a company, must process your personal data to comply with legislation.
- Legitimate interest – When we have a legitimate interest in processing your data, the purpose is similar to that which it was collected, and while there is little risk of the processing infringing on your privacy, we may rely on the legal basis of legitimate interest.

3. Your rights
3.1. Right to access
You have the right to know what personal data we process about you and for what purpose. This is easily exercised through a so-called Data Subject Access Request (DSAR). Find our contact details below to start the process. To make sure that no one except you gets access to your data for this purpose, we will first ask you to identify yourself. This can be done more than once but be aware that misuse of this right and excessive amounts of requests will result in a small charge to cover our administrative expenses.

3.2. Right to rectification
You have the right to have inaccurate personal data about you rectified. You can also ask us to supplement any incomplete personal data.

3.3. Right to deletion
You can request that we delete the personal data we process about you if any of the following applies:
- If the personal data were obtained and processed with the legal basis of your consent and you want to revoke your consent.
- Personal data are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed.
- If deletion is required to fulfill a legal obligation.
- If the personal data has been processed illegally.
- If you request to delete your personal data, we will make an effort to also inform those we may have provided/transferred the personal data to about the request.

3.4. Right to restriction
You have the right to request that our processing of your personal data is restricted. Restriction means that the data information is marked so that in the future it may only be processed for certain limited purposes. We may also restrict the processing while awaiting a decision on deletion.

3.5. Right to data portability
You have the right to obtain your personal data in a structured and machine-readable format. You also have the right to get your personal data transferred to another data controller, where technically feasible. This right only applies to personal data which you yourself have provided us, and when the data has been processed on the legal basis of consent or contract.

4. Applicants
When you apply for a job at a company other than us, which uses our Service, that company is generally considered the data controller for personal data processing. They are responsible to inform you about this, please refer to their privacy policy.
