Privacy policy
This policy describes how we process personal data when you visit shieldsup.dk or contact us.
Data controller
The data controller is René Christensen (Shields Up), Østervej 14, 6430 Nordborg, Denmark, email kontakt@shieldsup.dk. You can also reach us through the contact form.
What data we process
Contact form. When you write to us, we process the information you provide. Name, email address, preferred contact method and your message are required. Organisation, phone number and preferred time are optional.
The form is sent to our server, which forwards its content as an ordinary email to our own inbox. If we reply, we do so to the email address you provided. The form content is not stored in a database or file on the website. To protect against abuse, the server briefly keeps a timestamp record linked to a salted hash of your IP address (not the IP address itself), so the number of enquiries from the same sender can be limited. The record is deleted automatically when the rate-limit window has expired.
Email. If you email us directly, we process the information contained in your enquiry.
Server logs. Our hosting provider records technically necessary information such as IP address, time and the page requested. This information is used to operate and secure the website.
Browser check. The browser check runs entirely in your own browser. The result and the details about your device are neither stored nor sent to us. The page only fetches the latest browser versions from our own server.
Threat landscape and service status. News, vulnerabilities and provider status are fetched by our own server from the sources listed. Your browser does not contact the sources unless you click a link yourself.
Purpose and legal basis
- To respond to your enquiry and give you a quote. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in responding to enquiries and giving quotes, cf. Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.
- To operate and protect the website. The legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR (our legitimate interest in secure operation).
Cookies
The website sets no cookies and stores nothing in your browser. We use no analytics, marketing or third-party cookies.
Recipients
We do not sell your data or share it for any other purpose. Your data is processed by our hosting provider Nordicway, which provides web hosting and email.
Retention
Enquiries that do not lead to an engagement are deleted no later than 12 months after the last contact. If we enter into an agreement, we keep the data for as long as necessary for the engagement and to comply with legal requirements, such as accounting rules. Server logs are kept for the period set by our hosting provider. Our hosting provider makes backups of web hosting and email: daily backups are kept for 14 days, and further backups for up to 6 months.
Your rights
You have the right to access, rectify and erase your data. You also have the right to restrict processing, to data portability and to object. Contact us if you wish to exercise your rights.
You can lodge a complaint with the Danish Data Protection Agency, Datatilsynet, or with the supervisory authority in the country where you live.
