Where possible, we have set specific retention periods for keeping your personal information. These specific retention periods are stated below, or we shall communicate these to you at or before we start processing your personal information.

Where it is not possible for us to use set retention periods, we have stated below the criteria that we use to determine the retention periods.

Specific retention periods

Purpose (A) User account management. We shall keep your personal information related to your user account as long as you have an active user account with us. Inactive user accounts shall be erased after one year of last use. There is no obligation for you from our side to have your account set-up; if you don’t log in for the first time within 30 days of creation of the account, we shall erase it. You may always request us to delete your user account. In that instance, we shall erase your user account within 30 days after your request.

Purpose (C and D) Device management and remote access. We will delete the device log files after one year of creation. When the service engineer comes across the device address book during a remote maintenance session, no information shall be stored from the address book.

Criteria for determining retention periods

In any other circumstances, we use the following criteria to determine the applicable retention period:

  • The assessment of your fundamental rights and freedoms;
  • The purpose(s) of processing your personal information. We shall not keep your personal information longer than is necessary for the purpose(s) we collected it for;
  • Any relevant industry practices or codes of conduct on keeping personal information;
  • The level of risk and cost associated with keeping your personal information (accurate and up-to-date);
  • Whether we have a valid lawful basis to keep your personal information;

  • Any other relevant circumstances that may apply.

In any case, we shall keep your personal information in compliance with applicable legal requirements and we make periodical reviews of the personal information we hold.

Which technical and organizational measures have we taken?

We take the security of your personal information very seriously and take all reasonable efforts to protect your personal information from loss, misuse, theft, unauthorized access, disclosure or modification.

Your rights

You have certain legal rights that we wish to inform you of.

Access. You have the right to be informed on whether we process your personal information or not and to related information on that processing.

Rectification. You have the right to have your personal information rectified or completed by us without undue delay. If you have set up an account with us, you have the possibility to rectify or complete your personal information yourself.

Right to be forgotten. You have the right to have your personal information erased by us without undue delay. This right is limited to specific grounds, for example if you have withdrawn your consent, or if you object and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for us to maintain the processing. If you have an account with us, in many instances you have the option to erase your account yourself, in which case all your personal information is permanently deleted.

Restriction of processing. You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal information based on specific grounds. These are (1) the time for us to verify the accuracy of your personal information on your request; (2) instead of erasure of unlawful processing, you request restriction of use instead; (3) you need personal information in legal proceedings; or (4) we are verifying whether our legitimate grounds override your objection to the processing.

Right to object. You have the right to object at any time to our processing of your personal information if such processing is (1) based on our legitimate interest (including us making a profile of you based on your consent); (2) for direct marketing purposes; or (3) necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or exercise of official authority vested in us. We shall cease to process your personal information based on your objection, unless we demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds overriding your interests, rights and freedoms or if we need your personal information in legal proceedings.

Data portability. We are required to inform you of your right to receive your personal information from us so that you can transmit that personal information to another service provider. For KFS that means that at your request we shall supply you with your personal information related to your user account. It does not include any device data, including data that was transmitted to us in a log file.

Consent withdrawal. If you have supplied us with your personal information based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw such consent at any time. You may do so by unsubscribing from the service that you have subscribed to if applicable. You may also do so by sending us an email to the applicable privacy email address as stated below. We shall then permanently remove your personal information from our database.
