Personal data belonging to you as a client is collected when you contact us with the aim of hiring our services for assignments or for advice. We may also, in connection with the execution of assignments, collect information about you from various authorities or via social media.

Type of data 

The information we store regarding you as a client can be full name, social security number, organization number, information about your employees, postal address, email, bank details.

 Special categories:

• Within the framework of our assignments, we may store information that is considered sensitive such as, information about legal violations, ethnicity, political opinions, religion, sexual orientation, sexual life and possible membership in a trade union.

Other persons:

• We process data for people in connection with our cases. The people we process data for can be, judges, witnesses, experts, counterparty representatives, contracting parties and more. 

Counterparties:

• We process data in connection with contractors at legal entities, employees and about counterparties who are physical persons. The information we store can be, name, employer, social security number and contact details. 

Purpose 

We use your personal data in order to fulfill our assignment towards you as a client and to fulfill obligations stipulated in law and towards various authorities and insurance companies.

Legal basis 

Legitimate interest:

• Due to the fact that we as a law firm are bound to act according to the Bar Association's rules on lawyer activity and defend ourselves against legal claims. 
• To be able to maintain contact with you via telephone contact, email and post. 
• In order to be able to set up and book meetings. 
• In order to safeguard our rights in other legal claims, directed against us. 
• To be able to establish and carry out fee accounting. 
• In order to be able to provide and provide correct documentation, administration and handling of your case. 

Our right to possess your personal data is not a statutory requirement but in order for you to be our client it is still necessary. In the event that you choose not to submit personal data to us, we cannot fully fulfill our assignment to you as a client. Thus, we cannot choose to represent you either.

Our legitimate interest in the above is to be able to safeguard and protect our interests and rights in legal claims when necessary. This also applies when it comes to administering the relationship to you as a client/counterparty/other due to the continued handling of the case, as well as fulfilling the ethical requirements placed on us as a law firm.

• To handle and manage our accounting. 

Responsibility 

The legal entity responsible for your personal data is Advokatfirman Treschow & Partner AB, org.nr 559076-1119.

Access 

As we as a law firm work according to statutory requirements for confidentiality and attorney-client privilege, we very rarely disclose your personal data. But if for some reason we would need to do this, this is done to:

• Counterparties and counterparty representatives due to the case 
• IT systems where we among other things handle our accounting and data systems for cloud storage. 
• Your insurance company when applying for legal protection. 
• The Bar Association if such reason should exist. 
• Police if such is stipulated by law. 
• Authorities if such is stipulated by law. 
• Banks, insurance and collection companies for example when handling estates. 

Storage 

We are according to the Bar Association obliged to archive all cases for 10 years after the case is closed, or if special reason even longer. This means that the personal data that is attributable to your case and that for some reason occurred during the course of the case will be with us during the course of at least 10 years after the case is closed.

The same applies to our obligation to always carry out conflict of interest checks when taking on new clients, we are therefore also there obliged according to the prescription period in the Prescription Act to store your personal data such as name and social security number in our conflict of interest register for 10 years.

In order to be able to fulfill our obligations stipulated by the Accounting Act, we have an obligation to archive information that concerns the accounting over the course of 7 years. We can therefore due to this come to store information that concerns payments and invoices with us during this time.

The information that we handle with the purpose of fulfilling our assignment to you as a client, is thus only processed during the time that we are legally obliged to do so. Other reasons why we may need to save your personal data in our systems are to be able to administer the contractual relationship, exercise our rights as a firm and fulfill our commitments to you as a client.
