GDPR
Since 25th of May 2018, the EU has new regulation for handling personal data; the General Data Protection Regulation, (GDPR). These new rules apply to all member countries and aim to strengthen the legal protection for individuals.
Rules on the protection of personal data
The new regulation and a supplementary Swedish law, the Data Protection Act, replace the Personal Data Act (PuL) in Sweden. The General Data Protection Regulation contains, among other things, rules with basic principles for the processing of personal data and specifies the conditions for processing to be lawful. It also contains rules on the rights to information and access to personal data, rules on the correction of incorrect personal data and the possibility of restricting the processing of personal data in certain cases.
Your rights
You can contact us if you have any questions about how your personal data is processed by emailing dataskyddsombud@forex.se or calling + 46 (0)10- 211 10 00.
You also have the right to request an extract from the register free of charge, which contains a summary of the personal data about you that is processed by FOREX and information on how the processing is carried out. In order to verify and ensure your identity in the event of a request for a register extract, FOREX AB ("FOREX) will send the register extract as a registered letter.
In addition, you have the right to request correction (that we correct incorrect information), deletion (that we delete personal data that no longer needs to be or need to be processed) and restriction (that we in some part cease processing) of our processing of your personal data.
Request a register extract
If you wish to request a register extract, you need to fill in the PDF file that you will find on this page. You can then hand over the form to us by letter, e-mail or visit a FOREX Shop. Full instructions can be found on the form.

Camera surveillance in stores
Both your and the staff's safety is important to us, which is why we choose to have camera surveillance in our stores. The recorded material is only used for the prevention, prevention and investigation of crime and suspicion of crime. The material can be submitted to the police and prosecutor's office.
Of course, we follow the Camera Surveillance Act and the EU's General Data Protection Regulation for how we record and handle the recorded material. The recordings are ongoing around the clock and in special cases sound is also recorded. The material is stored for 90 days.
Data controller of the material
FOREX is responsible for camera surveillance and is the data controller for the recorded material.
