Introduction
At Stenz Digital (CVR: DK44687151), we respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains what personal data we collect, why we collect it, how we use it, who we share it with, the legal grounds for processing, your rights, and how to contact us or the Danish Data Protection Agency (Datatilsynet). This policy applies to data collected via our websites (https://stenzdigital.com, https://stenzdigital.dk) and other services/websites we provide.
Data Controller
The data controller is: Stenz Digital. Contact: contact@stenzdigital.com. If you have questions about this policy or how we process personal data, contact us at legal@stenzdigital.com.
Types of Personal Data We Collect
We may collect: (a) identity & contact data (name, job title, company, email, telephone); (b) communications you send to us (enquiries, messages, attachments); (c) technical & usage data (IP address, device information, browser type, pages visited, timestamps and other analytics data); and (d) other information you choose to provide (CVs, portfolio material, project briefs). We do not ask for or intentionally collect special categories of personal data (sensitive data) through the public site.
How We Collect Data
We collect data you give us directly (e.g., contact forms, email), data collected automatically when you use our site (cookies and analytics), and data from third parties where applicable (e.g., payment providers, business directories or publicly available sources).
Purpose and Legal Bases for Processing
We process personal data for the following purposes and legal bases: (1) to respond to enquiries and provide services (performance of a contract / legitimate interest); (2) to send service-related communications and updates where you have signed up (consent or performance of a contract); (3) to operate and improve our website and analytics (legitimate interest); (4) to comply with legal obligations (legal obligation); (5) to protect our rights and to detect/stop fraud (legitimate interest). Where we rely on legitimate interests, we have performed a balancing test to check those interests do not override your rights.
Cookies and Tracking
We use cookies and similar technologies for essential site functionality, analytics and performance. Where required by law, we ask for consent before placing non-essential cookies. You can manage cookie preferences through the cookie banner and your browser settings. For analytics we may use third-party providers; see "Third-Party Services" below.
Recipients and Third-Party Processors
We may share personal data with trusted service providers that perform services on our behalf (e.g., hosting providers, analytics, email delivery, CRM, payment processors). All processors act only on our instructions and are subject to written data processing agreements that require appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data.
International Transfers
If your personal data is transferred outside the EU/EEA (for example to cloud or analytics providers headquartered outside the EU/EEA), we ensure an adequate level of protection by using appropriate safeguards such as European Commission adequacy decisions, Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs), or other permitted transfer mechanisms under the GDPR. You may request details of the safeguards we use by contacting legal@stenzdigital.com.
Data Retention
We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy and to meet legal, accounting or reporting obligations. Typical retention periods: enquiries and contact form messages — up to 3 years after last contact (unless a contract requires longer retention); job applications — up to 12 months unless you agree otherwise; transactional records — as required by tax and accounting rules (typically up to 5 years). Specific retention periods will depend on the processing purpose and legal obligations.
Data Security
We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data (firewalls, access controls, secure hosting, encryption in transit, regular security reviews). Access to personal data is limited to employees and processors who need it for the purposes described. However, no system is 100% secure; in the unlikely event of a personal data breach we will follow legal notification requirements and take remedial steps.
Your Rights
Under the GDPR and the Danish Data Protection Act you have the right to: access your personal data; obtain rectification of inaccurate data; request erasure of data (right to be forgotten) where legal grounds allow; request restriction of processing; object to processing based on legitimate interests or direct marketing; and request data portability. Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw consent at any time (withdrawal will not affect the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal). To exercise your rights, contact us at gdpr@stenzdigital.com. We will respond without undue delay and in any event within one month unless an extension is permitted under law.
Automated Decision-Making
We do not carry out profiling or automated decision-making that produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you based on automated processing.
Children
Our website and services are not directed at children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If you believe we have collected data from a child, please contact us at legal@stenzdigital.com and we will take steps to remove it.
How to Complain
If you consider that we have not handled your personal data in accordance with applicable law you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Danish Data Protection Agency (Datatilsynet). Datatilsynet (The Danish Data Protection Agency) provides guidance and can be contacted via their website: https://www.datatilsynet.dk/english/.
