Personal data

SiS, through its CEO, is responsible for the processing of personal data. This policy is continuously updated.

Why do we need to store data?

When you, as a student, pay tuition fees to your higher education institution in the region, you get access to our offers. SiS does not currently have an exhaustive overview of which students have paid their tuition fees, so this must be documented by the students themselves. When you interact with our various departments and offers, there are different reasons for our gathering and storing certain information about you. We only collect what is needed to fulfil the processes necessary, and the data is only stored as long as we need it.

Our risk assessment shows that the most sensitive data is that concerning Psychologists, Nurses and Kindergartens. These have special routines to ensure that the information is secure. This is described below.

Below, you can find an overview of which data we handle in our various departments/offers, how it is stored, who has access to it, how it is secured, deletion routines and agreements with external data processors.

The journal can, for example, contain contact information, medical history and information about the current life situation. You may also be asked to respond to various mapping forms, these will then also be recorded. We are obliged to keep a record for 10 years before it is deleted from our record system.
