How we process personal data
-
We process personal data when you order products from our ordering service. Processing is done to administer your order and the legal basis is fulfilling the agreement entered when the order was placed.
-
When you register for courses and conferences via Saco’s website, your data will be saved in a database that is used to administer them. The data is saved for a maximum of three months.
At our events we take photos or record films and sound that may include personal data. We do this based on the balancing of interests, as we have an interest in marketing our activities and reaching out to other interested parties with relevant information about our activities, as well as to be able to conduct effective lobbying for good working conditions. We always strive to adapt our events so that people who do not wish to be in pictures, for example, will have the opportunity to avoid them. You are always entitled to object to how we process your personal data. If you wish to do so, please contact the event manager.

According to the General Data Protection Regulation, Saco is data controller for the personal data described below for exhibitors, booking managers at visiting schools and the visitor’s ticket registration. ITM-Mobile, our supplier for the Saco Studentmässa app and administration system, and our partners Stockholmsmässan and Malmömässan, are the data processors.
Bookings
We save your data for next year’s fair as a basis for the invitation and to be able to help you when you order, in case you should need to access information about the previous year’s order.
Visitors/ticket registration/planning and notes during the visit
We save your data in our app for three weeks after the completed event to give you time to export your data for the continued planning of your study choices.
Exhibitors
We save your data for next year’s fair as a basis for the invitation and to be able to help you when you order, in case you should need to access information about the previous year’s order. We forward your booking information to our partners in order to conduct the Saco student fairs.

The provider of a social media platform has the primary responsibility for processing the users’ personal data. However, Saco is considered responsible for some processing that takes place on Saco’s pages.
Facebook, LinkedIn, Youtube and Instagram
According to the General Data Protection Regulation, we are the data controller for activity that takes place on our pages on these platforms. This responsibility covers the posts we publish and other users’ publications on our pages.
Our primary responsibility is to ensure that we inform people about how we process personal data on our pages, that we moderate and remove comments that break the law and to respond to questions from people whose personal data is processed on any of our pages.
Other legislation states that we are responsible for moderation and ensuring that criminal comments do not remain on our pages. We exercise this responsibility by monitoring and moderating our pages, and erasing material of a criminal nature.
Twitter
Because Twitter does not allow control over other people’s posts, tags, or comments on our posts, our responsibility is more limited.
For Twitter accounts, we are the data controller only for the processing of personal data in our own posts, but not for other people’s posts that are sent through the account. For posts that are criminal, we are only responsible for the posts we write ourselves and not material that it written to us or about us.

Right to erasure (right to be forgotten)
You have the right to request that we erase your personal data if the information is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected. However, there may be legislation that means we cannot erase your data, such as accounting and tax legislation or consumer legislation.
Right to restriction of processing
You have the right to request restricted processing of your personal data.
Right to object
You have the right to object to processing conducted on the basis of balancing of interests. If Saco cannot prove that there are compelling legitimate reasons to continue processing the data, Saco must stop processing it.
