Offer, purchase and renewal of insurance contracts: Brookfield processes personal data in connection with offers or purchases of insurance, or when renewing the insurance contract. This is because the processing of the personal data is required to be able to enter into and fulfill the agreement on insurance with you (contractual obligation).

when we receive requests from you, we process your data for the purpose of responding to your request, such as questions about our insurance policies, whether the request comes by phone, email or other means. For example, in this instance, we store information about you before you enter into an agreement with us in order for us to be able to administer you as a potential customer regardless of whether the request comes by phone, email or other means (legitimate interest).

We enter into personal data processing agreements with all companies that process personal data on our behalf. Our data processors cannot process your personal data in any other way than what is agreed with us, and as described in this Privacy Policy. We use personal data processors, among other things, as providers of financial services.
Brookfield processes person data mainly within the EU/EEA/UK. To the extent that personal data is transferred to, and processed in, a country outside the EU/EEA/UK, we take all reasonable legal, organisational and technical measures to ensure that your data is handled securely and with a level of protection comparable to, and at the same level as, the protection offered within the EU/EEA/UK.
We store your personal data for as long as it is necessary to fulfil the purpose which we save it for or the time required by any applicable law, such as applicable limitation periods and the Accounting Act. See examples of different situations below. Requests for insurance: if you have had contact with us, received information or applied for insurance, your personal data will be kept for 3 years if no insurance has been taken out. Existing customer: when we have entered into an agreement with you and you have insurance with us, we save the data necessary to fulfill the agreement. Upon termination of the customer relationship: if the agreement with us has ended, we need to save personal data as long as legal claims can be asserted and then for at least eleven years with respect to statute of limitations.

Right to erasure: you have the right to request that your personal data be deleted if the data is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it is collected or if the processing of the personal data is not carried out in accordance with the applicable law. There may be legal obligations that prevent Brookfield from immediately deleting certain data. In this case, we will block the personal data that we are obliged to save so that it cannot be used for any other purpose.

Right of limitation: you have the right to have the processing of your personal data limited if
– you consider that the personal data we process about you is not correct while we investigate whether the information is correct,
– the processing of the personal data is illegal but you object to the deletion of your personal data and instead request that a restriction on its use take place,
