    How we share personal data

    Next Venture will not, without your consent, pass on any information about you to any third party unless required by law to do so, or unless it is necessary in connection with a product or service you have requested or purchased from us.

    To be able to use our services and create a user account, we share your data with following third parties:

  • Firebase; for our data storage and to keep information such as user data, payment data och information, Email connection, errands and to provide the user with offers.
  • Stripe; payment information and token for authentication in order to keep users safe.
  • Hubspot; token to identify users on Firebase and give the user personalized marketing and website experience.
  • Fortnox; necessary for our members to buy our services.
  • Transfers to third countries

    We always make sure to process your data in a safe and secure way. When a situation arise where the data must be processed in and thereby transferred to a destination outside of the EU/EEA by us or one of our suppliers or subcontractors we promise you that we will take all reasonable legal, technical, and organizational measures to ensure that your data is treated securely and with an adequate level of protection compared to and in line with at least the level of protection offered within the EU/EEA.

    We will only transfer your personal data to a country, a territory or a sector in a third country if the European Commission has decided that it ensures an adequate level of protection.

    Next Venture uses Firebase, Stripe and Hubspot as third parties that are situated in the United States. The data we share will never include social security numbers or health information. We will only share the data that the user has shared with us.

    Data retention

    We will keep your data until your user account is deleted.

Where we keep your data for purposes which are not related to our contractual relationships such as for purposes like creating users and buying our services, we keep the data only as long as necessary and/or required by law for the respective purpose.

    Next Venture protects your personal data using technical and organizational security measures. To prevent unauthorized access and ensure data accuracy, we limit data access, have routines for data security and use firewalls.
