GDPR and Data Protection Policy

Data controller

The data controller is Waidmann Hunting Tours AB. The protection of your personal data is important to us. The protection is also legally regulated in the Personal Data Act, which will be replaced by the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) on May 25, 2018. Below you can read about how we handle your personal data and what rights you have.

You are welcome to contact us if you want to know more about how we protect your data. 

What personal data is collected

Personal data that will be processed includes, but is not limited to, name, date of birth, address, email address and telephone number.

We may also process requests for special diets or specific information from you prior to the trip that is relevant to the completion of the trip.

You provide the personal data yourself when ordering a trip, ordering a brochure or newsletter, by telephone, ordering from our retailers, by e-mail, via our website or when visiting us.

Purpose of the processing of personal data

Your personal data will be processed so that we can fulfill our commitments in ordered trips and additional products and keep you informed about current trips and the like. Processing of your personal data may also take place in order for us to fulfill obligations under laws, regulations and to handle questions about your trips.

In addition to the purposes stated above, you agree that your personal data may be used for the purposes below and as a basis for our market and customer analysis, risk management and statistics in order to provide you with a better travel offer and better service.

Unless you have objected in writing to direct marketing, we may also use your personal data to provide various offers of services and/or products from us. You can unsubscribe from marketing at any time via a link in the newsletter.

Storage of personal data

We store personal data for as long as it is necessary to fulfill the purposes above. Normally, we store your personal data for 2 years from the date of your last trip or from the date of your other contact with us. When you sign up to receive newsletters and offers from us, we save your data until further notice. You can easily unsubscribe at any time via a link in the newsletter or by contacting us by e-mail as above and have all your data removed.

In some cases, we may need to store data for a longer period when required by law (e.g. accounting law).

Who may process the personal data

Your personal data is processed by our staff and by our partners for system services and administrative services with whom we have data protection agreements.

Your personal data may also be processed within the travel industry, e.g. by airlines, bus companies, hotels and local partners at the destination. Only necessary information is provided on each such occasion.

Processing of personal data in countries outside the EU and EEA

Depending on the location of your destination and the partners used, your personal data may be processed outside the EU and EEA. Even if the final destination of a trip is within the EU/EEA, for example, transport companies and hotels may be based outside the EU/EEA. Only the information needed for the implementation of the trip and other services are provided to partners.

By submitting your personal data to us, you consent to our processing of personal data outside the EU and the EEA and are aware that data protection legislation may be lower than in the EU and the EEA.

Your rights to data about you.

You have the right to withdraw your consent for us to process the data you have provided to us at any time.

This means that you can also request the rectification or erasure of your personal data. Such a request is made in writing to us. Your data will then be corrected or deleted within one month. If you have a current trip that has not been completed or ended, or have an ongoing complaint or similar, the data will be deleted within one month after this is completed.

You can also contact us to request access to the registered information we hold about you, which we will provide within one month.
