Privacy Policy

This privacy policy explains how Foege Paintings collects and uses personal data when you visit foegepaintings.com, send an enquiry or buy a painting.

Foege Paintings is responsible for the processing of your personal data.

What data is collected

When you send an enquiry through one of the forms on the website, I receive the information you enter: your name, email address, phone number (optional), the painting you are interested in and your message.

If you buy a painting, I also process the information needed to issue an invoice and ship the artwork, such as your name, postal address, email address, phone number and payment details.

Why the data is used

  • To answer your enquiry and correspond with you about a painting or a commissioned work (legitimate interest, GDPR Article 6(1)(f)).
  • To complete a purchase, including reservation, invoicing and shipping (performance of a contract, GDPR Article 6(1)(b)).
  • To meet bookkeeping requirements under Danish law (legal obligation, GDPR Article 6(1)(c)).

Your data is never sold, and it is not used for marketing without your consent.

Who the data is shared with

Your data is only shared when it is necessary:

  • The web agency that hosts and maintains the website, acting as data processor.
  • The email provider used to receive and answer enquiries.
  • Cookiebot (Usercentrics A/S), which handles cookie consent on the website.
  • Shipping carriers and, for deliveries outside the EU, customs authorities.
  • Accountants and public authorities, when required by law.

If a provider processes data outside the EU/EEA, the transfer is based on an adequacy decision or the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses.

How long the data is kept

Enquiries are kept for as long as needed to answer and follow up on them, and are then deleted. Information related to a purchase is kept for five years from the end of the financial year, as required by the Danish Bookkeeping Act.

Cookies

The website uses cookies. Cookies that are strictly necessary for the website to work are always set. Other cookies, for example for statistics or marketing, are only set if you give your consent in the cookie banner.

Instagram

The website links to my Instagram profile. When you follow a link to Instagram, Meta’s privacy policy applies.

Your rights

You have the right to request access to the personal data I hold about you and to have it corrected or deleted. You can also object to the processing, ask me to restrict it, and request a copy of your data in a portable format. To use your rights, please write to foegepaintings@gmail.com.

If you are not satisfied with how your data is handled, you can file a complaint with the Danish Data Protection Agency (Datatilsynet) at www.datatilsynet.dk.
