For the purpose of building and developing existing and potential customer relationships, including sending out newsletters and other marketing mails , we process identifying information, purchase history and information included in our correspondence with you. Our marketing mails contain tracking pixels, which makes it possible to register and analyse log files. From the pixel we can see, if and when an e-mail is opened by the recipient, and which links in the e-mail the recipient has clicked on.

The legitimate interests pursued by Detale are the promotion of our business and provision to our customers of the best possible service and special offers.

When you visit Detale’s pages on social media like Facebook, Instagram and TikTok, data is collected about you, for which Detale and the specific social media are joint controllers. The purpose of this processing is for Detale to receive anonymised data from social media about visitors to our pages.

4. Use of tracking pixels for marketing

When you sign up for our newsletter, accept our cookies or buy goods from us, in some cases Detale sends non-reversible hashed information in the form of e-mail address, address, telephone number and in some cases information about your interest in one or more of Detale’s products to Facebook (Meta) and TikTok. This is due to the fact that Detale uses Custom Audiences (also referred to as Lookalike Audiences) in order to create target groups for subsequent advertising.

The legal basis for our processing of your information is our interest in spreading knowledge about Detale’s products and services, including to other persons who might have similar interests in Detale products, cf. the General Data Protection Regulation, article 6, subsection 1, letter f – see possibly also point 3 above. The overall purpose is thus marketing and branding.

In addition to the possibility of making objections to our processing for this purpose in accordance with section 7 below, you have the opportunity to object to Facebook and TikTok by changing your settings and deactivating “Custom Audiences and Lookalike Audiences”.

You can do so by following the instructions on the following links:

Your personal data is exclusively processed for the purpose mentioned above as long as we legally may process the information in regard to other purposes, and as long as we have a legal cookie consent, if the processing was made on this basis or until we receive your objection to the processing of your personal data to the purpose above. Since Facebook has a parent company located in the United States, there can be a risk of access to your personal data from this unsecure third country. However, Detale has ensured that your personal data are hashed (encrypted) and in addition to this, Detale has entered the EU Commission’s Standard Regulations with Facebook and TikTok as the basis for any transfer.

5. Categories of recipients

Detale will only disclose information about you in strict compliance with the rules on the processing of personal data and other Danish legislation. We will assess in each case whether such disclosure requires your explicit consent, or whether disclosure may take place on a different legal basis.

We disclose or make available personal data to the following categories of recipients:

  • Our data processors based on data processing agreements

  • Banks in connection with the administration of payments

  • Debt collection and credit rating agencies when granting credit and in case of default on loans/credits

  • Public authorities in connection with statutory reporting

  • Collaborators who are independent data controllers

  • Other companies in the Flügger group for administration and support purposes

6. Transfer to third countries

In some cases, including when we provide support for our web services, your personal data may be transferred to data processors in countries outside the EU/EEA. We will only transfer personal data to data processors in countries that the European Commission considers to be safe third countries, or who have given the required data protection guarantees through the EU Commission’s standard contractual provisions.

If you want to know more about this processing, you can contact us by email at gdpr@flugger.com.

7. Deletion

We will delete the data about you when it is no longer required for the purposes for which it was processed.

In order to ensure correct handling of recurring customer relationships, potential complaints, warranty and bookkeeping obligations, and to be able to meet other obligations, we have ascertained that we need to retain the data for up to five financial years plus the current year from the end of the customer relationship.

For future and potential customers covered by marketing-related activities, we follow the applicable rules in the Danish Marketing Practices Act and comply with fair marketing practices.
