We are then still responsible for the processing of your personal data by the subcontractor. The suppliers may not use the data for purposes other than those that we specify. We share personal data with suppliers because it is necessary to fulfill our agreement with you.
Agencies
We disclose personal data to authorities, such as the police and the tax authorities, at the authority's request if we are obliged to do so by law or authority decision or to law enforcement authorities to contribute to an ongoing criminal investigation. When we share personal data with authorities, it is either because we have a legal obligation to do so or because we have a legitimate interest in contributing to an ongoing criminal investigation.
Collaborators who offer services to Qasa's users
If you choose to take part in ancillary services we provide together with partners, for example to have your ad also appear on Blocket, we can share personal data with our partners so that they can perform their services. We enter into agreements to ensure that such collaboration partners process data in accordance with current personal data legislation. We share information with these partners because it is necessary to fulfill our agreement with you.
Debt collection company
If Qasa has a claim against you, we may share the personal data necessary with collection agencies to establish, enforce and exercise our legal claim.
Research and educational institutions
On certain occasions, we share de-identified information with research and educational institutions in order to contribute to socially beneficial Swedish and international research. Before we share information for research purposes, we always make an assessment of the social benefit of the research and condition the sharing with strict instructions on when the information must be deleted.
Other recipients with whom we may share information
If you send messages to advertisers, we share the personal data you provide in messages with the person you contact. If the person you are communicating with is a company, the recipient becomes the personal data controller for the personal data that your messages may contain. When you apply for a first home or as a tenant sign a tenancy agreement, we will share your personal data with credit reporting companies to obtain a credit report on you. We share information with these recipients because it is necessary to fulfill our contract with you.
We will not share, sell, transfer or otherwise disclose personal information beyond what is set out in this privacy policy unless we are required to do so as a result of legal obligation
or if we have obtained your consent first.
Contact for questions
We work continuously to ensure that the processing of your data takes place in a legal manner. You can always contact us by emailing info@qasa.se or via our customer support page.
The Privacy Protection Authority is a supervisory authority
