What is personal data?
Personal data is all kinds of information that can be directly or indirectly be linked to a physical living person. Examples of personal data include names, email addresses, telephone numbers and personal identity numbers. Images and audio recordings may also constitute personal data, even if no names are included. Encrypted data and various types of electronic identities such as IP numbers constitute personal data if they can be linked to physical individuals. An organisation number constitutes personal data if it relates to a sole trader, and a car registration number also constitutes personal data if it can be linked to an individual.

Photography and filming
Filming and photography are often carried out on Skansen’s premises by both external actors and film companies, as well as by Skansen. Photography or filming may also take place during events at Skansen in which a large number of people participate, and it is not possible to request written consent from every individual. When filming takes place in a certain area at Skansen, visitors will be notified via information boards at the filming location.

How long do we save your data?
Your personal data is only saved for as long as there is a need to save it to fulfil the purposes for which the data was collected. Skansen may save this data for longer if it is needed in order to comply with legal requirements or to protect Skansen’s legal interests, for example if there is an ongoing legal process.
-
Who can we share your personal data with?
Your personal data may be shared with other companies. These are Skansen’s personal data processors. A personal data processor is a company that processes information on our behalf. Skansen’s personal data processors perform services for us, such as sending out newsletters or delivering ordered goods.

Sharing data with another company that is a personal data controller
When your personal data is shared with a company that is an independent personal data controller, the counterparty’s privacy policy and personal data processing apply. We share your personal data with certain companies that are independent personal data controllers. Examples of independent personal data controllers with which we share your personal data include government agencies in the event that a crime is suspected, companies that provide general goods transportation services (logistics companies and freight forwarding companies) and companies that offer payment solutions (card acquirers, banks and other payment service providers).
