PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA

The new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) came into force on May 25, 2018, throughout the EU, including Sweden.

GDPR replaced the Swedish Personal Data Act (PUL) and tightened the requirements for how your personal data may be processed. Personal data is any information directly or indirectly attributed to a natural person. Typically, this includes name, address, and contact details, but it can also include other information or pictures.

The Palme Center registers and saves information that you provide to us, for example, in connection with your project involvement, when you subscribe to our newsletter, or when you give us a gift.

You are welcome to contact us if you have questions about how we handle your personal data, want to know what information we have stored about you or if you want something changed or deleted.
