Personal data is information relating to an identified or identifiable person. This mainly includes information that makes it possible to draw conclusions about your identity, such as your name, telephone number, address or e-mail address. Please note that statistical data that we collect when you visit our website cannot be associated with you and is not covered by the definition of personal data.

The personal data we collect about you are personal data you provide us with when you contact us, request a quote, make enquiries, visit our website, enter into an agreement with us, complete our survey or use our services. Such personal data may be, for example, contact details, login details, order and payment details, prior purchases as well as information about how you use our services. In some instances, we also collect personal data about you from other sources such as our third-party partners.

In order to develop our website and app services, we also use cookies which may contain personal data. You can read more about how we use cookies in our cookie policy, available here.

Additional information you provide in your communications with us.

You may consider it necessary to provide information to Verisure Ireland DAC about special requirements to receive our services, such as health data (i.e. hearing impairment or physical disability), which are relevant for the efficient management of delivering our alarm monitoring services to you. In such cases, Verisure Ireland DAC may have to process this information about your health (e.g. regarding impairment of hearing that prevents you from hearing the siren), or other form of disability. In some cases, there may also be instances where we may have to collect and process this information for other legal requirements, including under employment law.

Such health data is a special category of personal data. This means we must treat it with extra care under applicable data protection requirements.

This special category personal data may be provided by you or indirectly during or following your interractions with us (through e.g., chat, e-mail, text messages, calls to our customer services centre or in person during a maintenance visit recorded by our staff).

Where we process such special category personal data we will do so, based on the following legal basis and purposes where:

1. it is necessary to protect your, or someone else’s, vital interests:

   - we reasonably believe that you or another person are at risk of harm (if we do not process the data about you) and the processing is necessary to protect you or them from harm or to protect physical, mental or emotional well-being;
   - we reasonably believe it is necessary to protect the economic well-being of you or another person, where you or that person is less able to protect your own economic well-being by reason of physical or mental injury, illness or disability;

2. it is necessary for the prevention or detection of an unlawful act; or

3. we need to carry out our obligations or rights in connection with employment, for example where we need to protect our staff members from harm.

4. We may also collect such data where we have your consent to do so.

Where you choose to provide health data voluntarily which it is not clear to us obviously falls into any of the categories above, we will discuss with you whether we should retain it and, if necessary (and not for the above purposes) will obtain your consent to future processing of that data.

This paragraph only applies to your special category personal data and should be read in conjunction with our wider privacy notice which governs the collection and processing of all personal information about you. If you need more information on the above, or have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact us.

We also use cookies and similar technologies (e.g. web beacons) from partners for analytical and marketing purposes. This is described in more detail in the following sections. Further information can also be found at https://www.verisure.ie/cookies-policy

• Use of Cookies and Similar Technologies for Analysis Purposes

To improve our website, we use cookies and similar technologies (e.g. web beacons) to statistically collect and analyse general usage behaviour using access data. We also use analytical services to evaluate the use of our various marketing channels.

The legal basis for the data processing described in the following section is our legitimate interest in the needs-based design and continuous optimisation of our website.

• Google Analytics

Our website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service of Google. According to Google, the contact for all data protection matters is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. Google Analytics uses cookies and similar technologies to analyse and improve our website based on your user behaviour.

Both websites allow the listed providers to disable all ads at once using opt-out cookies or, alternatively, to make the settings for each provider. Please note that after deleting all cookies in your browser or later using another browser and/or profile, an opt-out cookie must be set again.

• Facebook Custom Audience

Our website uses Facebook Custom Audience.  It is offered to users outside the U.S. and Canada by Facebook Ireland Limited and for all other users by Facebook USA. To do this, a pixel is implemented on our website by Facebook. With the help of the pixel, Facebook is able to determine visitors to our website as the target group for the display of ads (“Facebook ads"). This only shows the Facebook ad we run to those who have shown an interest in our online offering.

Facebook uses this data to match as many customers as possible with Facebook user accounts. These user accounts make up a list of the audiences (custom audiences) we can send ads to on Facebook. Facebook can also create new audiences based on customer data and search for other users that resemble our customer groups.

• Google Ads Conversion Tracking

Our websites use “Google Ads," which is available to users from the European Economic Area, Switzerland and Liechtenstein, from Google Ireland Limited.  “AdWords conversion tracking" captures customer actions (such as clicking on an ad, page views, downloads) and analyse them.   We make use of "AdWords Remarketing” to show you individualised advertising messages for our products on partner websites of Google. Both services use cookies and similar technologies. The data generated in this context can be transmitted by Google to a server in the USA for evaluation and stored there. 

If you use a Google account, Google can link your web and app browsing history to your Google account, depending on the settings stored in the Google account, and use information from your Google account to personalise ads. If you do not want this assignment to your Google account, you may need to log out of Google before using our website.

You can configure your browser to reject cookies, as shown above. In addition, you can turn off the Personalised Advertising button from Google Advertising settings. In this case, Google will only display general advertising that has not been selected based on the information you collect.

The use of the DoubleClick allows Google and its partner websites to serve ads based on previous visits to our or other websites on the Internet.

If we disclose data to service providers, they may only use the data to perform their tasks. The service providers were carefully selected and commissioned by us. They are contractually bound by our instructions, have appropriate technical and organisational measures in place to protect the rights of the persons concerned and are regularly monitored by us.

In addition, disclosure may take place in connection with government inquiries, court orders and legal proceedings if it is necessary for legal prosecution or enforcement.

As a matter of principle, we store your information within Ireland, the European Economic Area (EEA), or in countries that have an adequacy decision.

We have put in place adequate safeguards with respect to the protection of your privacy, fundamental rights and freedoms, and the exercise of your rights, e.g. we establish an adequate level of data protection through EU Standard Contractual Clauses.

We contractually require these companies to treat your information on a similar basis to ours. In these cases, we ensure that the data submitted is protected.
