The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) came into effect on May 25, 2018.

The most important aspect of the new law is that you have increased rights to your personal data.

Limitation, deletion, or destruction are other examples that also constitute processing.
Your personal data is treated confidentially and shared only with third parties if you have given us permission to do so or for legal reasons.

Cookies from Google Analytics are used on ahlmarks.se to measure visitor statistics.
Google Analytics is a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses “cookies,” which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie regarding your use of the website will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States.
On ahlmarks.se, IP anonymization is enabled. This means that your IP address will be truncated within the area of the member states of the European Union or other parties to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there.
Google will use this information on behalf of the operator of this website to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activity for website operators, and provide them with other services related to website activity and internet usage.
The IP address that your browser conveys within the scope of Google Analytics will not be associated with any other data held by Google.

Our website uses so-called web fonts, which are provided by Google, for a uniform presentation of fonts. Google Fonts is a service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (“Google”). For this purpose, the browser you use must connect to Google’s servers. This will make Google aware that our website has been accessed via your IP address. Google also stores the IP address of the browser on the end device used by the visitor on these websites. If the browser does not support web fonts, a default font is used by the computer. Each Google Font request automatically transmits information such as language settings, screen resolution, version and name of the browser to the Google Server in addition to the IP address. It is unclear whether this data will also be stored. However, Google can determine the popularity of fonts through collected usage data. Google publishes the results on internal analytics pages.
To the extent that data is processed by Google in the USA, we would like to point out that Google is certified under the Privacy Shield agreement and thus guarantees that the European data protection law will be followed (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active). The transfer of data to the United States is therefore permitted under Article 45 of the Data Protection Regulation.
With Google Fonts, we can use fonts on our own website and do not have to upload them to our server. Google Fonts is an important building block to keep the quality of our website high. All Google fonts are automatically optimized for the web and this saves data volume and is especially useful for use on mobile devices. When you visit us, the low file size ensures a fast loading time. In addition, Google Fonts are safe web fonts and support all popular browsers. The processing of your data is therefore carried out in our legitimate interest in a uniform and appealing presentation of our online offer., in accordance with what is referred to in Article 6 ch. 1 f of the Data Protection Ordinance.
Google stores requests for CSS assets on its servers for one day. This allows us to use fonts a Google style sheet. The font files are stored on Google for one year. If you want to delete the data early, you must contact Google Support (https://support.google.com/?hl=se&tid=231563100246).
