Processing of personal data

This information states how Veidekke ASA (org. no.: 917 103 801) and its subsidiaries collect and use personal information about you as visitors.

Veidekke is concerned that you should feel secure when you visit our website and that your personal information is handled appropriately. If you have any questions, you will find the contact info at the end of this document. Veidekke’s Group CEO is responsible for the enterprise’s processing of personal data.

The managing director/general manager of each company is the data controller. Wherever daily responsibility is delegated, this appears under each individual point. Such delegation applies only to the duties and not the responsibility.

This document provides information about your rights when information is gathered about you from our website, general information about how we process personal data, what your rights are, and who to contact if you have any questions regarding the rules for Privacy Protection/GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation). 

1 Processing of personal data on Veidekke’s and its subsidiaries' websites.

The web editor has the day to day responsibility for Veidekke’s processing of personal data on Veidekke’s and its subsidiaries' websites, unless otherwise stated below.

It is voluntary for visitors to the website to provide personal data in connection with services, such as receiving newsletters. The basis for the data processing is the consent of the individual, unless otherwise specified.

Iterate is the Veidekke’s data controller for the web pages, and is our provider for the development and maintenance of the website.

Evry is our systems operator for the web pages veidekke.no, veidekke.com, stalbygg.no, blockberge.no, valdresbygg.no, and asphaltcoredams.com.

Only Veidekke and Evry have access to the information collected. A separate data processing agreement between Veidekke and Evry regulates which information the provider has access to and how it should be processed.

1.1 Web statistics

Veidekke collects anonymised information about visitors to the web pages mentioned in clause 1.

The aim of this is to develop statistics that we use to improve and further develop the information offered on our websites. We can see how many people visit different pages, how long the visit lasts, what websites users come from and what browsers are used.

The information is handled in de-identified and aggregated form. De-identified means that we cannot trace the information we collect back to each individual user.

We collect the full IP address, but the IP address is de-identified so that only the first three groups in the address are used to generate statistics. That is, if the IP address consists of the numbers 195.159.103.82, only 195.159.103. xx will be used.

In addition, the IP addresses are processed at the aggregate level, meaning that all data is merged into a group and is not individually processed. We use the Google Analytics analysis tool and GA Audiences on our websites.

These are open source tools (GPL) installed on a dedicated server at the service provider. Information from this tool is not divulged from Veidekke to other players. Access to Google Analytics is provided to the media agencies with which Veidekke has an agreement, for the purpose of analysing statistics.
