Here are the types of third parties we can share information with about you: Advertising, Measurement and Analytics Services (Non-Personally Identifiable Information Only).
We want our advertising to be as relevant and interesting as the other information you find on our Services. With this in mind, we use all of the information we have about you to show you relevant ads. We do not share information that personally identifies you (personally identifiable information is information like name or email address that can by itself be used to contact you or identifies who you are) with advertising, measurement or analytics partners unless you give us permission. We may provide these partners with information about the reach and effectiveness of their advertising without providing information that personally identifies you, or if we have aggregated the information so that it does not personally identify you. For example, we may tell an advertiser how its ads performed, or how many people viewed their ads or installed an app after seeing an ad or provide non-personally identifying demographic information (such as 25 year old female, in Madrid, who likes software engineering) to these partners to help them understand their audience or customers.
Vendors, service providers, and other partners.
We transfer information to vendors, service providers, and other partners who globally support our business, such as providing technical infrastructure services, analyzing how our Services are used, measuring the effectiveness of ads and services, providing customer service, facilitating payments, or conducting academic research and surveys. These partners must adhere to strict confidentiality obligations in a way that is consistent with this Data Policy and the agreements we enter into with them.
We maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards to help guard your data in compliance with applicable privacy regulations. If transactions are offered on the Services, transaction information is transmitted to and from the Service in encrypted form using industry-standard Transport Layer Security (TLS used to be known as SSL) connections to help protect such information from interception. We strictly restrict authorized access to your data only to those persons who have a legitimate purpose to access it. We also have security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse and alteration of the data we process, like:
We encourage you to be careful when sharing your data with other users when you use our Services like email or chats. Heimdal will NEVER ask for your password to be sent separately or in clear text. Anyone doing so is probably trying to steal your stuff.
Here we have to inform about the possibility to opt-in or opt-out from email for example
For personal data that we have about you:
If you have submitted personal information to us, you may at all time request a transcript of the registrations we have about you and the use of the Software. We may ask for a fee for providing you with the information. The fee will be the maximum amount allowed under Danish Law. If you would like to receive a transcript of the registration please email us at b2csupport@heimdalsecurity.com stating your license number and the e-mail address submitted to us when you downloaded the Software. Within 30 days we will furnish you with a copy of our registrations in the format they are stored in. If you want a copy of all information we have stored about you as a licensee please also request this information.
All the above can be done by contacting us at b2csupport@heimdalsecurity.com
We will keep your information for as long as you are a customer of Heimdal Security A/S. We may keep your information for longer for research or statistical purposes. If we do, we will make sure your information is anonymized and non-traceable to you as a person. We will also keep it for longer if we cannot delete it for legal or regulatory reasons. We will, however, delete all data that is no longer necessary after a reasonable period. For example, any inactive Heimdal Account will after a period of two (2) years be deleted unless they contained products you have purchased as we assume you would rather not have them deleted.
We will also delete data upon request.
All our payments are made through payment processors over a secure connection. Only the payment processors store your full payment card number or account information. During the order process, you will be directed on to pages hosted by our payment processor. Such pages will maintain the look and feel of the site but will have the trademark of the payment processor displayed. They will also offer you an automatic renewal of subscriptions and provide you with reminder notifications if your card has expired.

We never share your contact details with third parties for marketing purposes but we do partner with a third-party advertising network to display advertising on the site and to manage our advertising on other websites.
