How we protect and store personal information
Throughout this policy, we use the term “personal information” to describe information that can be associated with a specific person and can be used to identify that person. We do not consider personal information to include information that has been anonymized so that it does not identify a specific user. New Nordic Group takes reasonable precautions, as described herein, to protect your personal information from loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction.

We store and process your personal information on our computers in Asia Pacific and elsewhere in the world where New Nordic Group facilities or our service providers are located, and we protect it by maintaining physical, electronic and procedural safeguards. We use computer safeguards such as firewalls and data encryption, we enforce physical access controls to our buildings and files, and we authorize access to personal information only for those employees who require it to fulfil their job responsibilities.

We store our customers’ personal information securely throughout the life of the customer’s New Nordic Group Account. New Nordic Group will retain your personal information for a minimum of five years or as necessary to comply with our legal obligations or to resolve disputes.

How we use the personal information we collect

Our primary purpose in collecting personal information is to provide you with a secure, smooth, efficient, and customized experience. We may use your personal information to:

    • Provide New Nordic Group services and customer support you request;
    • Process transactions and send notices about your transactions;
    • Resolve disputes, collect fees, and troubleshoot problems;

From time to time we may request your permission to allow us to share your personal information with third parties. You may opt out of having your personal information shared with third parties, or from allowing us to use your personal information for any purpose that is incompatible with the purposes for which we originally collected it or subsequently obtained your authorization. If you choose to so limit the use of your personal information, certain features or New Nordic Group Services may not be available to you.

Marketing
We will not sell or rent your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes without your explicit consent. We may combine your information with information we collect from other companies and use it to improve and personalize New Nordic Group services, content and advertising.
How we share personal information with other New Nordic Group users
To process your payments, we may share some of your personal information with the person or company that you are paying or that is paying you. Your contact information, date of sign-up, the number of payments you have received from verified New Nordic Group users, and whether you have verified control of a bank account are provided to other Kurt Svendheim users who you transact with through New Nordic Group. In addition, this and other information may also be shared with third parties who may provide, upon your authorization, ancillary services which access you’re New Nordic Group Account. Unless you have agreed to it, these third parties are not allowed to use this information for any purpose other than to facilitate your transactions using New Nordic Group services.

If you use your New Nordic Group account to transfer bitcoin, ether and or cash about the purchase or sale of goods or services, we or you may also provide the seller with your shipping address to help complete your transaction with the seller. The seller is not allowed to use this information to market their services to you unless you have agreed to it. If an attempt to pay your seller fails, or is later invalidated, we may also provide your seller with details of the unsuccessful payment. To facilitate dispute resolutions, we may provide a buyer with the seller’s address so that goods can be returned to the seller.

We work with third parties, including merchants, to enable them to accept or facilitate payments from or to you using New Nordic Group. In doing so, a third party may share information about you with us, such as your email address or mobile phone number to inform you that a payment is sent to you or when you attempt to pay that merchant or through that third party. We may use this information to confirm that you are a New Nordic Group customer and that bitcoin as a form of payment can be enabled, or where a payment is sent to you, to send you notification that you have received a payment. Also, if you request that we validate your status as a New Nordic Group customer with a third party, we will do so. Please note that merchants you buy from and contract with have their own privacy policies, and New Nordic Group cannot be held responsible for their operations, including, but not limited to, their information practices.

How we share personal information with other parties

We may share your personal information with:

    • Service providers under contract who help with parts of our business operations such as fraud prevention, bill collection, marketing, and technology services. Our contracts dictate that these service providers only use your information about the services they perform for us and not for their own benefit.
    • Financial institutions with which we partner.
    • Companies that we plan to merge with or be acquired by.
    • Law enforcement, government officials, or other third parties when:
    • We are compelled to do so by a subpoena, court order or similar legal procedure; or
    • We believe in good faith that the disclosure of personal information is necessary to prevent physical harm or financial loss, to report suspected illegal activity or to investigate violations of our User Agreement.
    • Other third parties with your consent or direction to do so.

New Nordic Group will not sell or rent any of your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes and only shares your personal information with third parties as described in this policy.

If you establish a New Nordic Group account indirectly on a third-party website or via a third party application, any information that you enter on that website or application (and not directly on a New Nordic Group website) will be shared with the owner of the third party website or application and your information may be subject to their privacy policies.

We will notify you of material changes to this policy by updating the last updated date at the top of this page. It is recommended that you visit this page frequently to check for changes.

How you can access or change your personal information
You can review, correct or amend your personal information, or to delete that information where it is inaccurate, and you may do so at any time by logging in to your account and clicking the Profile or My Account tab. This right shall only be limited where the burden or expense of providing access would be disproportionate to the risks to your privacy in the case in question, or where the rights of persons other than you would be violated. If you close your New Nordic Group account, we will mark your account in our database as “Closed,” but will keep your account information in our database. This is necessary to deter fraud, by ensuring that persons who try to commit fraud will not be able to avoid detection simply by closing their account and opening a new account. However, if you close your account, your personally identifiable information will not be used by us for any further purposes, nor sold or shared with third parties, except as necessary to prevent fraud and assist law enforcement, as required by law or in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
