Itera Privacy Policy

Data controller responsibility

Itera is the data controller for all processing of personal data where we ourselves determine the purpose of the processing and the means used. This Privacy Policy provides more information on the processing operations for which Itera is the data controller.

Itera, acting through its CEO, is the data controller for the organisation’s processing of personal data. Each individual section below provides information on any day-to-day responsibilities that have been delegated at Itera. The CEO only delegates the tasks involved, not the responsibility. This Privacy Policy contains the information to which you have a right when data is collected by our website (the Norwegian Personal Data Act, Section 19), as well as general information regarding how we process personal data (the Norwegian Personal Data Act, Section 18, first paragraph).

If you have any questions regarding the Itera Group Privacy Policy or any of the approaches we have adopted, please contact us by email using dpo@itera.no.

Contacting our Data Protection Officer

You can contact our Data Protection Officer, although not with all types of question. Enquiries sent to our Data Protection Officer must concern Itera’s processing of personal data (situations in which Itera is either the data controller or the data processor, cf. GDPR), and they must also mainly relate to personal data about you or a group that you represent. Examples of such enquiries might be questions related to your rights, accessing your own data etc, cf. GDPR, Article 15. It is important for us to make clear that you can always consult our Data Protection Officer. If you feel that the Data Protection Officer is unable to provide you with sufficient help, we ask that you contact Itera - see https://www.itera.com/en/contact
