The purpose of this Privacy Notice is to provide users of this website ("you") with information on how Securitas Group processes your personal data.

Responsibility for the processing of personal data

Securitas AB, reg. no. 556302-7241, is the controller of the personal data processing. This means that we are responsible to ensure that the processing is compliant with applicable laws in relation to personal data. Please find our contact details at the bottom of this document.

Details of processing

In the table below, please find information about the categories of personal data that may be processed by us, for which purposes we process such information, what our legal bases are for that processing and for how long we process your personal data.

  Online visitors
  Identify and contact data: Your name, address, e-mail address, phone number, what company you represent, title, country, browsing information (e.g. IP address) and any other information you decide to share with us.
Personal data Marketing and communications data: Information on when you receive and read marketing communications from us, open email/click data, newsletters requests, events you attend and marketing and communication preferences. Additional information about the personal data we process in connection with marketing is included with the marketing communications we send you and your interaction with us (clicks, your navigations on the website, anything submitted by you to our chatbot as part of a conversation).
  Technical and browsing data: Your use of our websites, language used, IP address (including information about the company that provides the IP address), log data, device data, unique device identifies, cookies and other data linked to a device, data usage of our websites and/or user generated data.
Purpose To accommodate your request (e.g. reach out to you or share requested information with you) and to build a client profile including related profiling such as engagement scoring (e.g. on the basis of preferences, behavior on website, interaction with Securitas’ content) for direct marketing purposes for existing and prospective clients, promoting our services and identifying ways to improve and expand our services. If permissible under applicable marketing legislation, we will process the personal data for the Securitas Group’s marketing purposes which might include sharing the personal data with other companies within the Securitas Group for their independent use. We may record conversations with the chatbot for performance measurements, quality improvement and troubleshooting.
Lawful basis Legitimate interest and, for the marketing, consent.
Retention time As long as is necessary to complete your request or until the withdrawal of your consent. Chatbot conversations may be stored for up to 13 months.
 


Securitas uses profiling in limited circumstances relating to our marketing activities. We combine data obtained to build the client marketing profile which helps us determine what products and services might be of interest to you as a client or prospective client and when you might be ready to make a purchase based on repeated interaction with our websites, emails, and content (e.g. on the basis of engagement scoring derived from your interaction with our content such as open clicks, webforms sent, etc.).

For instance, if we see that you are regularly viewing articles dedicated to small and medium enterprises on our website, and you clicked on our advertisement for small and medium enterprises we may tailor our web content to your interests.

The automated solution profiles the information to evaluate your interest in our service offerings and/or promotions. This enables us to identify and target prospective clients and/or business partners and aims to provide you with relevant and timely content based on your indicated interests. Securitas’ marketing and sales personnel are involved in this process and no automated decisions are made that would result in legal effects or similarly significantly affect an individual.

For this purpose, we store one or more cookies on your end-device, with the help of which we collect information for marketing and optimization purposes, which in turn is stored and further processed on the third-party servers. The collected information can be combined with your further details as our current client or which you voluntarily leave on our website by analysing the information about your online behavior and your interactions with Securitas’ content, for example by accepting cookies and similar technologies via our cookie banner, to create a client profile.

You can always object to the direct marketing and related profiling, and we will always respect your decision. You can also always withdraw your consent to prevent your personal data being used this way at any time using the Cookie Settings. To learn more about deleting cookies, please see our Cookie Policy.

When using chatbot on our website, you are interacting with a generative AI. This technology allows us to provide automatically generated responses to your inquiries. While the chatbot is trained to be informative and comprehensive, please note that it is continuously being improved and refined.

Who we share your personal data with

Service providers and subcontractors: Your personal data may be processed by our service providers and/or subcontractors (including but not limited to data storage service providers, developers, customer research and operations management companies, technical support and maintenance of the service) on instruction from Securitas. All service providers and subcontractors act as Securitas’ personal data processors and are under contractual arrangements only allowed to process data for the purposes as set out above. Furthermore, the personal data processor (service provider or subcontractor) and those acting under instructions of the processor will not access more personal data than is required for the performance of the service covered by the agreement with Securitas.

Securitas Group: Your personal data may be processed by companies within the Securitas Group that provide services to Securitas such as product development, service delivery, support and administration. In such case, Securitas Group companies act as Securitas’ personal data processor or joint controller with Securitas. The personal data processor or joint controller may only process personal data in accordance with the purposes or instructions provided by Securitas for the processing. If permissible under applicable marketing legislation, we may also share your personal data to other companies within the Securitas Group for their use as independent data controllers.

Government agencies: Securitas may share your personal data with government agencies (such as the police, the tax authority or other authorities) if we are required by law to do so, or if you have agreed that we do so. We may also share your personal data with government agencies when we believe in good faith that it is necessary to protect our rights, protect your security or the safety of others, investigate crimes, or respond to a government request. Government agencies that receive your personal data will be the data controller for such processing, which means that it is not Securitas who governs how your personal data, if shared with an authority, is processed. Thus, if your personal data is shared with authorities, this Privacy Notice will not cover that processing.

Third party service providers: The personal data that we collect from you may be transferred to and processed by a third party service provider established in a country outside the EU/EEA (i.e. a so-called third country), including countries which the EU Commission does not consider to have an adequate level of protection for personal data. In such case we will take all necessary steps required under applicable law in order for such transfer of your personal data across borders to be compliant with applicable law. We will only transfer your personal data to a country outside the EU/EEA where; (i) the EU Commission has decided that the third country ensures an adequate level of protection, or (ii) where the transfer is being safeguarded by the use of EU model clauses (under Article 46.2 in the General Data Protection Regulation (2016/679) ("GDPR")).

We may transfer your personal data to third party service providers established in countries outside the EU/EEA. You can find further information about the rules on data transfers outside the EU/EEA, including the mechanisms that we rely upon, on the EU Commission’s webpage.
