Privacy
This privacy notice applies to abyss.no and describes how Abyss processes personal data in connection with use of the website, enquiries, recruitment and other contact with the business.
Abyss AS, Norwegian organisation number 987 097 876, is the controller for personal data processed in connection with abyss.no, unless otherwise stated for the individual service.
Abyss AS is headquartered at Dalegata 71, 6516 Kristiansund N.
For questions about how we process personal data, please contact us at post@abyss.no or call +47 71 58 06 00.
Which personal data do we process?
We process personal data needed to respond to enquiries, manage client and supplier relationships, process applications and requests, and operate and improve the website.
This may include:
- name, email address and phone number
- company name, organisation or affiliation
- information you provide in forms or enquiries
- any documents or attachments you submit
- information relating to client, supplier and partner relationships
- technical information and usage data, such as IP address, device type, browser and information about how the website is used
Please do not submit sensitive personal data through ordinary contact forms unless this is necessary and expressly requested.
Purposes and legal bases
We may process personal data to:
- respond to enquiries submitted through the website, by phone or by email
- follow up prospective and existing clients, suppliers and partners
- process applications for support or sponsorship funding
- manage and follow up agreements and deliveries
- conduct recruitment processes
- analyse and improve the website's content, structure and user experience
- maintain security, troubleshoot and operate technical systems
- comply with legal obligations
Depending on the purpose, processing is based on a contract or steps taken before entering into a contract, legitimate interests, a legal obligation or consent.
Where processing is based on legitimate interests, we consider that Abyss' need to manage its business, follow up enquiries and secure and improve its services outweighs the impact on the data subject's privacy.
Analytics and marketing technologies that require consent are used only if you have given valid consent.
Forms and enquiries
When you submit a form on abyss.no, we process the information you provide so that we can handle and respond to your enquiry.
The information collected depends on the form you use. It may include contact details, information about the business you represent, the content of a request or information relating to an application.
Enquiries submitted through the contact form are sent to kontakt@abyss.no. The information is generally used only for the purpose for which it was collected and any necessary follow-up.
Recruitment
Vacancies and speculative applications may be handled through an external recruitment system. Abyss currently uses ReachMee, part of Talentech. Applicants may be directed from the Abyss careers page to ReachMee to submit an application.
In recruitment, the company named as the employer for the position will normally be the controller for candidate data. The recruitment system provider processes the information on the company's behalf.
Further information about personal data processing in a particular recruitment process may be provided when you apply.
Client, supplier and partner information
We process contact details for people at client, supplier and partner organisations where necessary to manage the relationship and provide our services.
This may include names, job titles, phone numbers, email addresses and company affiliations. The information may be stored in our client management, finance and communication systems.
Processing is mainly based on our legitimate interest in managing and following up business relationships, or on the need to fulfil a contract or legal obligation.
Cookies and analytics
Abyss.no may use cookies and similar technologies to make the website work, maintain security, analyse usage and improve the user experience.
Some cookies are necessary for the website to function. Other cookies, such as those used for analytics or marketing, are used only if you have consented.
You can change or withdraw your consent at any time through the consent tool on the website.
An up-to-date overview of the cookies and services active on abyss.no, their purposes, providers and retention periods is available in the website's cookie declaration.
Webflow
Abyss.no uses Webflow as its website development and hosting platform. Webflow is provided by Webflow, Inc. in the United States.
When Webflow is used, technical information and other personal data may be processed in the United States and by Webflow's subprocessors. Webflow states that it is certified under the EU–US Data Privacy Framework and that its data processing agreement also includes the EU Standard Contractual Clauses for transfers where necessary.
Processors and other recipients
We use external providers for website hosting, recruitment, analytics, communication, security and other technical and administrative services.
Where a provider processes personal data on our behalf, we enter into a data processing agreement where required. Processors may process personal data only in accordance with our instructions and applicable data protection legislation.
Personal data may also be disclosed where we have a legal obligation to do so, or where necessary to establish, exercise or defend a legal claim.
We do not sell personal data.
Transfers of personal data outside the EEA
Some of our technology providers or their subprocessors may process personal data in countries outside the EU/EEA.
Transfers of personal data outside the EEA must have a valid transfer basis under data protection legislation. This may include a European Commission adequacy decision, the EU–US Data Privacy Framework for certified US companies, or the EU Standard Contractual Clauses combined with any necessary supplementary measures.
Retention periods
We retain personal data for as long as necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, or for as long as we are required to retain it under applicable law.
Enquiries submitted through forms or by email are retained for as long as necessary to respond and follow up any further dialogue.
Information relating to clients, suppliers and partners may be retained while the relationship is active, and subsequently for as long as necessary for documentation, accounting or other legal requirements.
Where processing is based on consent, the information is deleted or processing stops if consent is withdrawn, unless we have another lawful basis for continuing to process it.
Your rights
You have the right to request access to the personal data we process about you. Depending on the processing, you may also have the right to:
- have inaccurate information corrected
- request erasure of information
- request restriction of processing
- object to processing based on legitimate interests
- receive information you have provided in a structured, machine-readable format
- withdraw consent
The rights that apply depend on the processing and its legal basis.
To exercise your rights, please contact us at post@abyss.no.
If you believe that our processing of personal data breaches data protection legislation, you have the right to lodge a complaint with Datatilsynet (the Norwegian Data Protection Authority).
