Data processors acting on behalf of NEXT
NEXT may engage external service providers, who act as data processors of NEXT, to provide certain services to NEXT, such as website service providers, marketing service providers or IT support service providers. When providing such services, the external service providers may have access to and/or may process your personal data. We request those external service providers to implement and apply security safeguards to ensure the privacy and security of your personal data.
We aim to store your personal data within the EU/EES-area.
Personal Data may however be transferred to and processed by recipients which are located inside or outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”). The countries include those listed at the European Commission website which provide an adequate level of data protection from a European data protection law perspective. Other recipients might be located in other countries which do not adduce an adequate level of protection from a European data protection law perspective. NEXT will take all necessary measures to ensure that transfers out of the EEA are adequately protected as required by applicable data protection law. With respect to transfers to countries not providing an adequate level of data protection, we base the transfer on appropriate safeguards, such as standard contractual clauses adopted by the European Commission or by a supervisory authority, approved code of conducts together with binding and enforceable commitments of the recipient, or approved certification mechanisms together with binding and enforceable commitments of the recipient. You can ask for a copy of such appropriate safeguards by contacting us as set out below in Section 7.

In case of complaints, you may contact us as set out in Section 6 and you also have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent data protection supervisory authority in particular in the EU Member State of your habitual residence, place of work or of an alleged breach of the GDPR. In Sweden, this is Integritetsskyddsmyndigheten (www.imy.se).
Through the use of technical and organisational measures, NEXT ensures that the appropriate security measures are continuously taken to protect personal data. We adhere to generally accepted standards and frameworks for the protection of personal data. This means that personal data is, for example, protected against unauthorised access, alteration or destruction.
