Zurich cares about protecting your personal integrity and privacy, and we want you to feel confident and secure with how we process data about you. We also want you to know why we are doing so, and what rights you have in connection with the processing.

An item of personal data is any information that can directly or indirectly identify you.

How and from whom we collect personal information about you

Some of the information, you provide directly to us. This occurs for instance when you talk to us by telephone or when you send us letters, documents, e-mail messages, or submit information via a web form.

We can also obtain information about you from someone else. When we have received information about you from someone else, we'll let you know what information we have received, who provided it, and why we collected this information.

Recipients who may obtain personal data about you

We share personal data about you if it is necessary in order to fulfil our commitments as an insurer.

We share information about you with other companies within the Group in which Zurich belongs, our partners, vendors/suppliers and agents who assist or enable us to fulfil the commitments we have made in our business activities.

We will, if necessary, disclose information about you to insurance or reinsurance companies, and other parties, that may be involved in a matter or concern relating to your employer or whom you represent. 

We will share information about you when it is necessary in order to:

  • comply with applicable legislation or an order from a public authority,
  • protect the rights of Zurich and/or our customers. This may occur for instance in legal proceedings, including but not limited to proceedings before courts, arbitration boards, other reviewing authority or investigative body, the Police and other law enforcement agencies
  • manage and maintain the security of our systems.

If we transfer personal data about you to a party outside of the European Union, we will ensure that the information is kept safe and secure, and the transfer occurs according to applicable legislation. This occurs via that we enter into a written agreement with the recipient, so as to ensure that it is taking adequate security measures. 

You can learn more about the security measures in place concerning data transfers outside of the EU by requesting such information via sending an e-mail to databeskyttelse.dk@zurich.com.

Storage and retention

How long we retain your information depends upon what the data needs to be used for. For example, we retain data related to agreements/ contracts including policies as long as it may be necessary to prove what the contents of the agreement is and information about incidents causing injury as long as there is the possibility that a claim for compensation due to the occurrence may be made. The duration of the retention period is also affected by legal requirements in legislation, such as those relating to insurance activities and tax.

If we process your information based on that you consented, you will always be entitled to revoke your consent if you so desire. Zurich will then cease the processing.

To revoke your consent, please notify us by sending an e-mail to databeskyttelse.dk@zurich.com.
