Privacy Policy
Privacy Policy for Wematter’s digital channels
Wematter AB (publ) (”us” in this document) takes personal integrity very seriously. Visitors of our websites, users of services provided on these websites, and users visiting our social media or customer service (“e-mail & telephone”).
Our goal is that you should trust us to respect your privacy and that your personal data are handled correctly. We ensure that any personal data processed by Wematter are used solely for the intended purpose, and are protected against unauthorized access. All processing of personal data within Wematter is done in accordance with applicable personal data legislation, such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) within the EU/EES.
This privacy policy applies to all of the Wematter digital channels. If any other, more specific privacy policy is published in one of the digital channels handled by a legal person within Wematter, that policy will have priority over this policy.
Over and above the processing of personal data made via the digital channels of wematter3d.com, we also process your personal data about you as sender and recipient, when providing the services that Wematter offers via our digital and other channels. In case any of the conditions for any of the services offered via the Wematter digital channels include more specific personal data requirements, such requirements will have precedence over this privacy policy for the service in question.
What is personal data, and what is “personal data processing”?
Personal data is any information that directly, or indirectly in combination with other data can be connected to a living, physical person. This means that data such as name, contact information, IP addresses, submissions to competitions (by Wematter), competition choices made and behaviors compose personal data, alone or combined. Any action taken with the personal data constitutes “processing”, regardless of the automation degree. It could be entirely manual. This includes the collection, registration, organization, structuring, storing, processing, modification, generation, reading, usage, releasing by transmission/distribution or provision in any other way, adjustment or consolidation, limitation, deletion, or destruction of personal data.

Where applicable, social security number and credit/debit card information be processed. Furthermore, Wematter may collect technical data about the units used by you to access the Wematter digital channels, including IP addresses, unique entity IDs, type of web browser, and cookie information.
