End-users

or any related services provided by us, for payments to or from our merchants (´End-user´,´you´).

Please note that your payment account provider (normally the bank where you hold the account used
for payment transactions initiated through Brite) and the merchant you are transacting with, are
separate and independent controllers for the processing of personal data in connection with the
products and/or services they provide to you and their business activities. Please contact them directly
for information on their processing of your personal data
.

Website visitors

We are also the data controller for personal data processed when someone uses our website or
otherwise contacts us through our support channels.

3. Who to contact?

You are welcome to contact us at support@britepayments.com or
dataprotection@britepayments.com if you have any questions about this Privacy Notice, our use of
your personal data or if you wish to exercise your rights

4. Your rights 

You have several rights relating to the processing of your personal data.

You are entitled to receive information about what personal data we use about you and what we do
with this data and also, to a certain extent, to check your data. You are thus entitled in certain cases
to receive data or have it rectified, erased, blocked, or moved. You are also entitled to object to certain
kinds of use of your data or revoke your consent to it being used. You are always entitled to file a
complaint with the Swedish Authority for Privacy Protection or the data protection authority in your
homeland if you think that we have used your data in an unpermitted way.

You can find out more about your rights under each heading below. Please note that there are
exceptions to the rights below, so access may be denied, for example where we are legally prevented
from making a disclosure.

You can contact us at any time if you wish to exercise your rights by contacting us on
dataprotection@britepayments.com.

Our responsibility for your rights

We are obliged to respond to your request to exercise your rights within one (1) month from being
contacted by you. We are entitled to extend this period by a further two (2) months if your request is
complicated or if we have had a large number of enquiries.

If we consider that we cannot do what you want us to do, we are obliged to notify you, no later than
within one (1) month from receipt of your request, of why we cannot do what you want us to do and
inform you that you are entitled to file a complaint with the supervisory authority.

All information, communication, and all of the measures that we implement are free of charge for you.
However, we are entitled to levy an administrative charge to provide you with the information or
implement the measure requested, or to refuse to accommodate your request, if what you have asked
is manifestly unfounded or unreasonable.

Right to be informed

You have the right to be informed of how we process your personal data. We do this through this
Privacy Notice, by service-specific FAQs, and by answering your questions.

Right of access

You are entitled to ask for a register extract relating to our use of your personal data. You are also
entitled to receive a copy of the personal data that we use free of charge. We are entitled to levy an
administration charge for any additional copies. If you make a request in an electronic format (e.g. by
email), we will give you the information in a commonly used electronic format.

Right to rectification

We will, at your request or on our own initiative, rectify, de-identify, erase or supplement data that
we discover to be inaccurate, incomplete or misleading. You are also entitled to supplement it with
additional data if anything of relevance is missing.

Right to erasure

You are entitled to ask us to remove your personal data if there are no longer any acceptable reasons
for us to use it. The data shall therefore be erased if:

  • the personal data is no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed,
  • we are using your data on the basis of your consent and you revoke this and there is no other legal ground for the processing,
  • you object to our use of your data which has been used following a balance of interests and we do not have important interests that override your interests or rights,
  • you object to our use of your personal data for the purposes of direct marketing,
  • we have used the personal data in an unpermitted way,
  • we have a legal obligation to erase the personal data, or
  • you are a child and we have collected the personal data in conjunction with an offer of information society services.

However, there may be a statutory requirement or other substantially compelling reason that means
that we cannot immediately erase your personal data. We will then stop using your personal data for
purposes other than to comply with legislation or that are not necessary for any other substantially
compelling reason.

Right to restriction of processing

You are entitled to request restriction of our processing when:

  • you consider that your data is inaccurate and you have requested rectification, during the period when we are investigating the accuracy of the data,
  • the use is unlawful and you do not wish to have the data erased,
  • we, as controllers, no longer need the personal data for our purposes of use, but you need it to be able to establish, exercise or defend a legal claim, or
  • you have objected to its use, pending a check about whether our important interests outweigh your interests.

Right to object

You are entitled to object to such use of your personal data that we do on the basis of a balance of
interests or a general interest. If you object to such use, we will only continue to use the data if we
have important reasons to continue to use it that outweigh your interests.

Right to data portability

You have a right to data portability. This means a right to receive some of your personal data in a
structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and be able to transfer this data to another
controller. You only have a right to data portability when the use of your personal data is automated
and we base our use on your consent or on a contract between you and us. This means that you, for
example, are entitled to receive and transfer all of the personal data input by you to create your user
account with us.

Right to object to automated decision making

You have the right to object to an automated decision made by us, if the automated decision produces
legal effects or similarly significantly affects you. Please read more under section 12 in this Privacy
Notice.

Your right to complain to a supervisory authority

You are entitled to lodge a complaint about our processing of your personal data to the Swedish
Authority for Privacy Protection, which is the supervisory authority for Brite. You can also file a
complaint with the data protection authority in your homeland within the EU.

data in order to administer the provision of our support and customer services overrides your
interest of protection of your privacy. Hence, the legal basis is legitimate interest.

Storage period

Two (2) years from the date when Brite collected your data or the date when you last contacted
us, whichever is later. The data may be saved for longer if it is required to establish, defend or
exercise a legal claim.

To market and sell our services to you

  • Device data, such as IP-number.

of your privacy. Hence, the legal basis is legitimate interest.

In relation to direct marketing, we base our processing on your consent.

Storage period

Two (2) years from the date when Brite collected your data or the date when you last contacted
us, whichever is later. You may at any time object to our processing of your personal data for
the purpose of direct marketing. If you object, you will no longer receive direct marketing. For

To enable us to perform Customer Due Diligence (‘CDD’), Enhanced Customer Due Diligence (‘EDD’) checks and Ongoing Due Diligence (‘ODD’) checks and to fulfil our legal obligations

What we do

We process the following personal data about you to enable us to perform CDD and EDD and
ODD checks as applicable, including anti-money-laundering checks and checks against sanctions

We may also be required to report statistics to authorities on inter alia fraudulent transactions
and report suspicious payments to the police or similar authorities.

constitutes sensitive information, the legal basis is necessary for reasons of public interest (article
9(2)(g) GDPR). The sensitive information may contain e.g., information about political opinion in
PEP/RCA lists.

Storage period

Your personal data will be processed for this purpose as a minimum for five (5) years and for up
to ten (10) years following the date of termination of the relationship for the purpose of
preventing, detecting, and investigating money laundering, terrorist financing and fraud, in
accordance with legal requirements.

Administration in conjunction with acquisitions, restructuring, etc.

What we do

If Brite were to be restructured, for example split into several different operations, or if an
external party were to acquire Brite or parts of our operation, Brite will transfer your personal data together with the personal data of other users to the acquiring company. This company will,
in such cases, continue to use your personal data for the same purposes as specified by us in this
Privacy Notice unless you receive other information in conjunction with the transfer.

Personal data

All of the personal data we process about you in accordance with this Privacy Notice, with the
exception of sensitive personal data that will not be transferred, might be processed for this
purpose depending on the circumstances.

Legal basis

We are entitled to use your data on the basis of a balance of interests as we consider that our
interest in facilitating an acquisition or restructuring process outweighs your interest in protecting
your personal data. However, a precondition for this is that the acquiring company conducts an
operation similar to Brite.

Storage period

If Brite ceases to exist (e.g., owing to a merger, liquidation or bankruptcy), we will erase your
personal data unless we need to save it in order to fulfil statutory requirements.

If Brite is bought by an acquiring company or is split up in conjunction with restructuring, we will
continue to save and use your personal data in accordance with the provisions of this
Privacy Notice, unless you receive other information in conjunction with the transfer.

termination of the contract. The data may be saved for longer if it is required to establish, defend,

8.1 If you are an End-User

8.1.1 Your merchant

Description of recipientPurpose and legal ground
For your merchant verifying payments in order
to be able to e.g., release any purchased goods,
we provide the merchant with information on
the payments.

Identifying information and/or financial

transaction history and bank account number
may be shared with the partners or merchants
whose services you utilize and whom you have

there is a need for us to provide the services to
you for the partner´s or merchant´s service to

partner´s or merchant´s services is provided by
the respective partner or merchant.

8.1.3 Third party payment service providers

Description of recipientPurpose and legal ground
Other third-party service payment providers that
we collaborate with may be involved in
connection with the provision of our services.
We may share your personal data with such
third-party providers when necessary for the
purpose of settling the payment, preventing
fraudulent use of the service and other criminal
acts, and for the provider to forward the data to
your merchant. If we do not share data with such

acts.
We may share your personal data with your bank
and/or other banks involved in the payment
chain for these purposes on the basis of our
legitimate interest to prevent fraud and other
criminal acts.

8.1.5 Other third parties with whom we collaborate (suppliers and sub-contractors)

Description of recipientPurpose and legal ground
We need access to services and functionalities from other companies where we cannot perform them ourselves. This means that we may need to share your data with third parties with whom we collaborate.

For example, this means that to be able to collect personal data from a third party such as official identity verification service providers and similar service providers in order to carry out a transaction when using our service, confirm your identity, proof of funds, source of funds, as applicable, as referred to above, we will need to share some information with them. As a rule, it is the name and/or personal identity (ID) number that are shared with them. 

If you use our Service, we will also share your personal data with service providers of sanctions and PEP/RCA-lists and other similar lists in order to screen your personal data against such lists as part of our know your customer checks to assess if you imply a money laundering risk. 

We also share personal data with companies that provide cloud-based services for IT operations and the like. This is done for the purpose of providing the Service and/or to improve the Service, for example by data analysing and testing. Furthermore, we may also share your personal data to other third-party providers such as for IT-security purposes.

A third party may be a processor, which is a company that processes personal data on our behalf and in accordance with our instructions. 

If and when we share your personal data with a processor, your personal data will only be processed in accordance with the purposes for which we collected your personal data in the first place. This means that a processor cannot process your personal data for additional or their own purposes. 

We have a processor agreement in place with all of our processors to ensure that your personal data is protected in the same way as if we were processing your personal data ourselves and where applicable, the European Commission´s standard contractual clauses (please see more information in section 10 below regarding transfers to third countries).          
The sharing of your personal data with such third parties as listed in this section is carried out on the basis that it is necessary to fulfil our contractual obligations, our legitimate interest to carry out the transaction, our legal obligation to verify your identity and/or financial information if you use our service, and, in certain cases, your merchant’s legal obligation to verify your identity.

9. For how long do we store your personal data?

The period for which we store your personal data varies depending on the purpose of the processing.
This period may either be determined by other rules or depending on the contract we have concluded

store your personal data for longer than necessary.

Please refer to the retention periods set out in section 6 above.

11. How do we use cookies?

When you are using our Services or navigate our website we may set cookies on your device. The data
generated from the cookies is used to provide you with a better user experience and well-functioning
experience.

We explain in more detail how we use cookies and what options you have for our cookies in our

12. What about automated decision making and profiling?

Automated decisions with legal effect, or automated decisions that similarly significantly affect you,
means that certain decisions in our services are completely automated, without our employees being
involved. These decisions have a significant effect on you as an individual, comparable to legal effects.
You always have the right to object to these decisions. You can read about how to object in this section.

Automated decisions that significantly affect you also mean that profiling is performed based on your
data before the decision is made. This profiling is made to identify whether your use of our services
involves a risk of fraud or money laundering. We profile your user behaviour and financial standing
and compare this data with behaviours and conditions that indicate different risk levels for us.

When does Brite take automated decisions that significantly affect you?

We make this kind of automated decision when we:

  • decide whether you pose a risk of fraud or money laundering or terrorism financing, use our
  • services for illegal or prohibited purposes, if our processing shows that your behaviour
  • indicates possible fraudulent conduct, or money laundering, that your behaviour is not
  • consistent with previous use of our services, or that you have attempted to conceal your true
  • identity. We also screen you against sanction lists and lists of PEP/RCA in accordance with antimoney laundering legislation to fulfil our legal obligations.

If you are not approved under the automated decisions described above, you will not have access to
our services. The outcome of the automated decision may also be change of risk classification,
blocking, hold or release of transactions.

We have several safety mechanisms to ensure the decisions are appropriate. These mechanisms
include ongoing overviews of our decision models and random sampling in individual cases.

You can always contact us, if you have any concern about the outcome, and we will determine whether
the procedure was performed appropriately. You can also object in accordance with the following
instructions.

The processing of your personal data in this automated decision making is carried out on the basis that
it is necessary for us to fulfil our contractual obligations towards you to carry out payments or to
comply with legal requirements, particularly those related to our obligations to conduct know your
customer checks in relation to our anti-money laundering obligations, as the case may be.

Your right to object to these automated decisions

You always have the right to object to an automated decision with legal consequences or decisions
which can otherwise significantly affect you (together with the relevant profiling) by sending an e-mail
message to dataprotection@britepayments.com . A Brite employee will then review the decision,
taking into account any additional information and circumstances that you provide to us.

13. Do you have a complaint relating to our processing of personal data?

Please contact dataprotection@britepayments.com if you wish to file a complaint relating to our
processing of your personal data. You can also file a complaint with the Swedish Authority for Privacy
Protection. The Swedish Authority for Privacy Protection is the Swedish national supervisory authority
as regards the processing of personal data according to, for example, GDPR. Visit https://www.imy.se/

14. Amendments to this Privacy Notice

We are entitled to amend this Privacy Notice when required. When we make amendments that are
not purely linguistic or editorial, and the changes affect personal data previously collected, you will
receive clear information about the amendments and what they entail for you before they start to
apply.
