Our privacy commitments are fundamental to the way we do business every day. These apply to everyone who has a relationship with us – including customers, web site visitors, our employees, job applicants, and contractors.

The data is mostly processed by Tampnet staff in a Tampnet office. However we might share personal data with third parties for a variety of business purposes such as to help us offer, provide, bill, repair, and improve our services.
Tampnet has processes for evaluating that suppliers ensure an appropriate level of confidentiality, integrity and availability. When we use third party to process personal information on our behalf, we require them to follow our instructions and apply appropriate security measures to protect the personal information they process on our behalf.
Tampnet will ensure that the European rules on cross-border data flows are complied with when personal data are transferred to processors located outside of EU/EEA or located in a country that is not recognised by the EU Commission as ensuring an adequate level of protection. In such cases we will use the EU Commission’s Model Clauses which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe.
We may also disclose your personal information if required or allowed by law, for example in order to protect you, us or someone else from harm or damage, or we are required by a warrant, court order or other legal or regulatory requirement to disclose your personal information to law enforcement agencies, courts or other public authorities.
We may have to share your personal data to third parties to whom we may choose to sell, transfer, or merge parts of our business or our assets. Alternatively, we may seek to acquire other businesses or merge with them. If a change happens to our business, then the new owners may use your personal data in the same way as set out in this privacy policy.
Our definition of personal data does not include “aggregate” information. Aggregate information is data we collect about a group or category of services or customers from which individual user identities have been removed. For example, we could prepare a report that indicates that a certain number of our users always use their wireless phones at a certain time of day at a specific location. Aggregate data helps us understand trends and customer needs so that we can better consider new services or tailor existing services to customer desires. Please understand that although we will not share your personal information in ways not described in this privacy note, we may share such aggregate information in ways not described in this privacy note.
Tampnet will revise or update the privacy notice to be in compliance with applicable laws and regulations, if our practices change, as we change existing or add new services or as we develop better ways to inform you of products we think will be of interest. We encourage you to review this policy when accessing the services.
National and international data protection gives rights to data subjects. This includes your rights to:
Should you believe that any personal data we hold on you is incorrect or incomplete, you have the ability to request to see this information, rectify it or have it deleted. Please refer to the GDPR regulations for further information about your rights or contact us via privacy@tampnet.com to receive our Data Subject Access Request Form. Note that we for security purposes will require information to confirm your identity and that not processing personal data might lead to us not being able to provide you with the service.
In the event that you wish to complain about how we have handled your personal data, please contact us at privacy@tampnet.com or in writing at Tampnet AS, Hinna Park, Stadionblokk C, Jåttåvågveien 7, 4020 Stavanger, Norway. We will then look into your complaint and work with you to resolve the matter. If you believe that Tampnet’s processing of personal data infringes the personal data legislation, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority of your habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement, or other relevant supervisory authority.
