We collect your personal data when you purchase a product from our webshop or when you contact us through telephone, email or forms. On our website, two contact forms exist which ask you to provide your personal data in order for us to contact you, as required, or to process any returns. We ensure that you must provide your definite, explicit consent before we collect and process any of your personal data. We can also collect your personal data when you visit us at our address.

Your personal data is stored on our website and on our email, which both are encrypted through a security certificate. If you purchase any product or use the contact forms on our website, your personal data will be stored on the encrypted website or email. The personal data we collect physically will be stored under secure conditions.
Furthermore, your personal data is stored within the European Economic Area (“EEA”) but may also be transferred to and processed in a country outside of the EEA. Any such transfer of your personal data will be carried out in compliance with applicable laws. For transfers outside the EEA, we will use Standard Contractual Clauses and Shields as safeguards for countries without adequacy decisions from the European Commission. This will be the case concerning Google (including Gmail) and Microsoft (including OneDrive), both located in the United States of America.

Your personal data may be shared with employees at Kwadusa.com, who need your data to perform their daily work tasks. The personal data will not be shared with more employees than necessary to correctly deliver an order to the customer.

Your personal data may be shared with external business partners who process your data on our behalf. We use external business partners for technical operation etc. These external business partners are our data processors and do only act on instruction from us, meaning they are not allowed to use your data for anything else than the processing on our behalf. As our external business partners have signed data processor agreements, they are subject to confidentiality.
We use data processors established in the United States of America, including Google. The necessary guarantees for the transfer of data to the United States is ensured through the data processor’s certification under the EU-US. Privacy Shield, cf. article 45 of the Personal Data Regulation.
