4. Legal basis for processing
We process personal data only where we have a lawful basis under applicable law. Depending on the context, the legal bases may include:
- Performance of a contract: where processing is necessary to provide requested services or fulfill an agreement with you;
- Compliance with legal obligations: where processing is required by Norwegian law, including bookkeeping, tax, and consumer-related obligations;
- Legitimate interests: where processing is necessary for our legitimate business interests, such as service improvement, customer support, fraud prevention, and IT security, provided these interests are not overridden by your rights and freedoms;
- Consent: where we rely on your consent, for example for certain marketing activities or optional cookies, you may withdraw consent at any time.
Where we process special categories of personal data, including any health-related information about a cat that may indirectly reveal information about an individual, we will do so only where permitted by law and with appropriate safeguards.
5. Data sharing and third parties
We may share personal data with third parties only when necessary and appropriate for the purposes described in this Policy. These third parties may include:

- Accounting and legal advisors: where necessary for compliance and professional advice;
- Delivery and logistics partners: if relevant to the services requested;
- Authorities: public authorities, courts, or regulators where disclosure is required by law or necessary to protect legal rights.
We require our processors and partners to handle personal data securely and only in accordance with our instructions and applicable law.
6. Data transfer to third countries
In some cases, personal data may be transferred to or accessed from countries outside Norway and the European Economic Area (EEA). If such transfers occur, we will ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place, such as:
- an adequacy decision by the European Commission, where applicable;
- standard contractual clauses approved under applicable law;
- additional technical and organizational safeguards where necessary.
We take reasonable steps to ensure that any international transfer of personal data is protected in accordance with Norwegian and EEA data protection requirements.

- Communication records: retained as long as needed to handle the inquiry and for follow-up purposes;
- Marketing data: retained until you withdraw consent or object, where applicable;
- Technical logs and analytics data: retained for a limited period necessary for security, troubleshooting, and statistical purposes.
When data is no longer needed, we will delete it or anonymize it in a secure manner.

- access controls and role-based permissions;
- secure storage and encryption where appropriate;
- regular software updates and security monitoring;
- data minimization and limited retention practices;
- staff awareness and confidentiality obligations;
