Privacy policy.

Insurely, with the registered name of Insurely AB, org. no. 559103-5646, a company registered in Sweden at the registered address Drottninggatan 71C, 111 34 Stockholm, Sweden (“Insurely”, “we”, or “us”), cares about your privacy and wants you to understand how we collect and use your personal data.

This privacy policy explains how we collect, share, and use personal information about you, and how you can exercise your privacy rights.

This policy only applies to personal data that we handle in connection with you using our website or insurance-related services:

Usage of Insurely via partner services
Website and Marketing

Usage of Insurely via partner services.

When you use Insurely through one of our partners, for example through your bank or insurance company that uses Insurely as a technical provider for the purpose of retrieving pension, investment or insurance data from a third party, the respective partner is the main data controller for the processing of personal data that takes place in connection with the use of the service you have requested. Insurely then processes the personal data as a data processor on the written instructions of the respective partner, which is directly linked to the performance of the service.

In addition, Insurely, as data controller, may anonymise certain user data and insurance, investment and/or pension data in order to improve our products and services. This processing is authorized by our partners and has been deemed compatible with the original purpose of the data collection. We take several measures to ensure that the data we use for this purpose is anonymized, e.g. by deleting all direct identifiers, converting values into ranges (e.g. regarding age or postal code), applying hash algorithms, etc.

We base our anonymisation process on our legitimate interest to improve our products and services, as it benefits you as a user. Once the data has been anonymised, there is no longer a link to you and the data is no longer considered personal data.  If you want to know more about our anonymisation process or what we use the anonymised data for, please contact us at privacy@insurely.com

Recipients of personal data, and transfer of personal data.

  • Service providers upon which we rely for our core marketing activities (such as providers of data management services, digital infrastructure, and marketing services).

We store and process your personal data described above within the EU/EEA.

We will do this through one of the following measures:

  • The country of destination is on the European Commission’s list of countries with an adequate level of protection, or;

  • By implementing controller-to-controller or controller-to-processor standard contractual clauses that have been approved by the European Commission (as applicable) for the transfer of personal data to third countries.

If a standard contract is deemed ineffective due to national law of the country of destination, Insurely will take additional technical, organisational, or contractual measures to ensure an adequate level of protection when transferring personal data to countries covered by paragraph (ii) above.

You can find out more information about the transfers and the safeguards we implement to protect your personal data by contacting us at privacy@insurely.com.

 

How long we store your personal data.

We retain the personal information we collect from you where we have an ongoing legitimate business need to do so (for example, to provide you with information you have requested or to comply with applicable legal requirements or to exercise, or defend legal claims). See the section above for information on the particular retention periods we apply for the specific purposes described above. These specific periods apply to the extent there is no other ongoing legitimate business need or legal reason to process your personal data.

When we have no ongoing legitimate business need or legal reason to process your personal data, we will either delete or anonymise it or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal data has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal data and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.
