Purpose of personal data processing
Why does Söderberg & Partners process personal data?
Söderberg & Partner's services consist primarily of insurance mediation, where we advise our customers on their insurance program, its administration, as well as assistance in insurance events.
In short, insurance mediation can be divided into two categories; corporate and private customers. We process personal data in order to advise the private customer. In the case of corporate customers, we may also process personal data of company employees if this is necessary to advise on the company's insurance program. We also process personal data when we advise our customers' employees. Furthermore, the processing of personal data takes place as part of the documentation requirements that Söderberg & Partners is subject to.
In order to handle our bookkeeping and financial reporting, it may also be necessary to process personal data.
Legal basis
What does the legislation say about the processing of personal data?
We must have a legal basis (legitimate basis) for all processing (i.e., use) of ordinary personal data. In most cases, this basis is that:
- The processing is necessary to perform a contract or to enter into a contract in which you are or will become a party.
- The processing is necessary to comply with a legal obligation (e.g., collecting tax information for reporting to the tax authorities).
The processing is in our legitimate interests unless your fundamental rights and freedoms override our legitimate interests. Our legitimate interest refers to our contact with existing and potential customers in order to market our services and branding.
Collection, registration and storage of personal data
How do we process personal data?
We only collect personal data that is necessary for us, and we always process personal data in accordance with applicable data protection legislation. We use the data to provide advice to our customers and our customers' employees. The personal data required depends on the purpose for which the data is to be used.
At Söderberg & Partners, we process the following categories of personal data, where relevant:
When relevant, we register personal data for the following categories

Storage of personal data
We will store all personal data as long as we find it objectively relevant. We are obliged to delete personal data when they are no longer relevant. Under normal circumstances, 6 years after our advisory relationship with you is completed, there will no longer be any objectively relevant purpose of continuing the storage of personal data. However, on a case by case basis, we may decide on a longer storage time if we consider that this is necessary for us to establish, exercise or defend ourselves against legal claims.
Third party data recipients
Who do we share personal data with?
Everyone at Söderberg and Partners is subject to the obligation of professional secrecy, and we only disclose your data to others as necessary and in accordance with the applicable legislation. In order for us to provide you with insurance brokerage services, personal data will be disclosed to relevant insurance companies, business partners and data processors. Also, we may disclose personal data when we are obliged to do so under applicable legislation.
Söderberg & Partners and your broker share your data among themselves to be able to provide consulting services. We may disclose your personal data to others within the organisation to the extent it is relevant and there is a legal basis in the data protection legislation.
Processing by data processors
We have agreements with all our data processors, and we verify that they comply with our instructions for safe processing. As part of these instructions, we require that these data processors process personal data confidentially and take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data.
Data security
How do we protect personal data?
Data protection is important to us, as it may have severe consequences for the persons concerned.
