In this privacy notice, we would like to inform you about the personal data we process when you are visiting our website.

Personal Data

Personal data is all information that can be directly or indirectly associated with your person, for example name, address, telephone number, e-mail address and user behavior.

Controller

The controller as defined in Art. 4 (7) of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) is the Swedish company Fenix Outdoor AB, Box 209, 891 25 Örnsköldsvik, Sweden, hereinafter referred to as “Fenix Outdoor”, “we” or “us”.

Our data protection officer can be contacted at privacy@fenixoutdoor.com. You can contact the data protection officer if you have any questions about how we process your personal data or if you need help in exercising your rights against us. The data protection officer is bound to secrecy.

Security

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of any confidential content in the contact form, our site uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser line. If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

 

Processing of personal data

In the following, you will find a description of how we process your data in different contexts.

VISIT OF OUR WEBSITE

  1. Accessing the website

If you use our website for information purposes only, meaning if you do not register or otherwise actively transmit information to us, we collect the data that your browser transmits to our server. This includes browser type und browser version, used operating system, accessed website, the previously visited website (sog. Referrer URL), host name of the accessing computer, date and time of server request, http status code and IP address. This data is not merged with other data sources.

Purpose of the processing: The data is technically necessary for us to display our website to you and to ensure stability and security.

Legal basis of the processing: The processing of your personal data when you access this website is based on our legitimate interest (Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 (f) GDPR). Without the processing of personal data, it is technically impossible to provide, operate and secure the website. Securing the website also serves your interests.

Transfer to third parties:

Microsoft Azure (Hosting)

Our website is hosted by Microsoft Azure. Microsoft Azure is a recipient of your personal data and acts as a data processor for us. This serves our legitimate interest in accordance with Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 (f) from GDPR not to have to maintain a server on our premises ourselves. The transmission and processing of your personal data is carried out exclusively on servers in the European Union.

 Content Delivery Network

We also use the Content Delivery Network (“CDN”) of Cloudflare Germany GmbH, Rosental 7, c/o around the world that is capable of delivering optimized content to the website user. For this purpose, Cloudflare may process personal data in server log files. Cloudflare is the recipient of your personal data and acts as a data processor for us. The processing is carried out pursuant to Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 (f) GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in providing our website in a secure and efficient way, as well as improving the stability and functionality of our website. In addition, it is in our legitimate interest not to operate a content delivery network ourselves. 

In order to improve our website’s performance and reduce the load on our servers, we choose CloudFlare as a CDN solution. It caches copies of frequently accessed content (such as images, videos, or webpages) in geographically distributed data centers that are located closer to end users than origin servers.  

All detailed and technical information regarding data protection and compliance with the European regulation are shared in the following whitepaper

According to the whitepaper, CloudFlare maintains GDPR-compliant data transfer mechanisms and provides security measurements and access protection. 

Cloudflare has implemented compliance measures for international data transfers. These apply to all global activities where Cloudflare processes personal data of individuals in the EU. These measures are based on the EU Standard Contractual Clauses (“SCCs”).

Retention period: The retention period of data for Cloudfare is 90 days.

Obligation to provide your personal data: You are not obliged to disclose your personal data. Without your personal data, however, it is not possible for you to access our website.

The obtained information can also be combined with other personal data related to you.

When visiting our website, cookies from third-party companies (third-party cookies) may also be stored. These enable us or you to use certain services of the respective third-party company.

Cookies have a number of different functions. Technically necessary cookies help us make our website usable by enabling basic functions such as page navigation and access to secure areas of the website. Our website cannot function and display properly without these cookies. Preference cookies collect and store information about your settings and preferences on our website, such as your preferred language or the region you are in. Statistics cookies collect information about how you interact with our website. This data helps us to better understand your user behavior and to optimize our website. Marketing cookies store information about websites you visit. The data collected in this way is used to display advertising tailored to you and your interests.

Web Beacons

Our website and any HTML e-mails we send to you may also contain so-called web beacons (also called pixels). These are small, often transparent image files that record how you interact with the website or the e-mail. This data helps us especially in the statistical evaluation of our online marketing.

Purpose of the processing: When using necessary cookies, we process your personal data to provide you with certain functions of our website.

When using other cookies or technologies, we process your data in order to analyze your user behavior, to tailor the offerings on our website to you and to display advertising that is of interest to you – also on other websites/platforms.

Without the processing of personal data, we cannot provide certain functions of our website without technical errors. In addition, you have the option to prevent the processing of your personal data in connection with cookies through your browser settings.

The processing of personal data in connection with the use of other cookies and technologies only takes place with your consent (Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 (a) GDPR).

Consent management

Browser settings

You can usually configure your browser to notify you when cookies are set and to allow cookies only in individual cases. In addition, you can refuse to accept cookies for certain cases or in general and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when you close your browser. Please note that the functionality of our website may be limited by the deactivation of cookies.

Most browsers also offer a do-not-track feature. When this feature is activated, the browser tells ad networks, websites, and applications that you do not want to be tracked for behavioral advertising and similar purposes.

In addition, you can prevent the loading of scripts by default. “NoScript” allows JavaScripts, Java and other plug-ins to run only on trusted domains of your choice. For information and instructions on how to edit this feature, please contact your browser provider.


CookieBot (Cookie Consent Tool)

To give you control over the technologies used on our website, we also use a tool for consent management (so-called Cookie Consent Tool). For this purpose, we use CookieBot, a service provided by Usercentrics A/S, Havnegade 39, 1058 Copenhagen, Denmark („CookieBot“).

For this purpose, a so-called cookie banner is displayed the first time you visit our website. The cookie banner provides you with a list of all cookies and similar technologies used by us, including information about the provider, the intended purposes, and the retention period. In addition, you have the option of ticking a checkbox to give your consent for certain technologies that require your consent.  As long as this is not done, the setting of cookies requiring consent is blocked.  This ensures that such cookies or similar technologies are only set on your end device if you have given your consent. If the use of cookies and similar technologies is technically necessary, we use them on our website without consent.

To enable CookieBot to clearly assign website visits to individual users and to individually record, log and store your consent settings for a session duration, CookieBot collects certain information from you (including the IP address) when you visit our website, transmits this information to CookieBot’s servers in Denmark and stores it there.

For more information, see CookieBot’s privacy policy at https://www.cookiebot.com/en/privacy-policy/

Purpose of the processing: The processing of your personal data by CookieBot serves to comply with our legal obligation with regard to the consent management required for cookies.

Legal basis of the processing: The processing of your personal data is based on our legitimate interest (Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 (f) GDPR). Without the processing of your personal data, a legally compliant, user-specific, and user-friendly consent management for cookies is not possible. The use of the service also supports us in complying with our legal obligations (Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 (c) GDPR).

Usercentrics does not sell, trade or otherwise transfer to outside parties any personally identifiable information. This does not include trusted third parties or processors who assist us in operating our website, conducting our business, or servicing you. We may also release your information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce our site policies, or protect our rights or the rights of others, property, or safety. Furthermore, non-personally identifiable visitor information may be provided to other parties for marketing, advertising, or other uses.m In principle, we process your data ourselves. In some cases, however, we also use service providers. In addition to the processors mentioned in this privacy policy, these may include, in particular, data centers that store our website and databases, IT service providers that maintain our systems, and consulting companies.

Retention period: Cookiebot retains a user’s state of consent for 12 months. Once 12 months has passed, the banner reappears upon your next visit to the website.
