General Privacy information

Last updated: January 2025

SSAB is bound by the privacy legislation within each jurisdiction in which it operates. Sometimes the privacy legislation and the data subject’s rights in relation to privacy differs from one jurisdiction to another. In addition, specific privacy practices may be adopted to address the specific privacy requirements of particular jurisdictions. Therefore, if the privacy notices are in conflict with the law of the jurisdiction in question, the local law takes precedence to the extent applicable.

SSAB has nominated a Group Data Protection Officer (DPO), who can be contacted for additional information or any inquiries or requests on personal data processing by SSAB. More information can be found in section nr. 2.

The data controller responsible for the SSAB group’s personal data processing activities is SSAB AB (registration number: 556016-3429, address: P.O. Box 70, SE-101 21 Stockholm, Sweden). This includes accountability for all data processing on a corporate level. SSAB is responsible for ensuring that personal data is processed in compliance with these notices and applicable data protection laws.

In addition, other SSAB group companies can be regarded as the data controller in separate contractual or other cooperation relationship or in connection with certain statutory personal data processing and compliance with local legal requirements of an individual legal entity part of the SSAB group. SSAB group companies also share personal data for administrative purposes and to facilitate the business operations of the group and the individual legal entities. The information of SSAB group companies and affiliates can be found in the latest Annual Report. Regardless of the data controller in a specific situation, the primary contact for privacy matters at SSAB is the SSAB Group Data Protection Officer.

2. Data Protection Officer's (DPO) contact details

3. Transfer or disclosure of personal data

SSAB may transfer or disclose individuals' personal data to the following third parties:

  • other SSAB group companies for internal processing;
  • when permitted or required by law to comply with requests by competent public authorities such as subpoenas or similarly binding acts;
  • trusted service providers or SSAB partners, such as suppliers, agents, distributors and marketing service providers. 
  • if SSAB is involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or a portion of its assets; and
  • when SSAB believes in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect SSAB's rights, protect individuals' safety or the safety of others, investigate fraud, or respond to a government request.

Third parties may act as independent data controllers, or data processors, depending on the case.

4. Transfer of personal data outside of the EU/EEA

4.1 Intra - group transfers

As some SSAB group companies are located outside of the EU/EEA, individuals' personal data may be transferred outside of EU/EEA. In these circumstances, SSAB will use the required established mechanisms for the transfer outside of the EU/EEA, such as the Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission.

4.2 Service providers and other data recipients located outside of the EU/EEA

SSAB may use service providers for the personal data processing and personal data may be transferred to countries outside of the EU/EEA. SSAB will use the required established mechanisms that allow the transfer of personal data to third countries, such as the Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission and additional safeguards.

5. Security

SSAB maintains adequate physical, technical and organizational security measures to protect personal data from loss, destruction, misuse, and unauthorized access or disclosure. For example, SSAB limits access to this information to authorized employees and contractors who need to know that information in the course of their work or assignment and to third party service providers who may only process data in accordance with instructions provided by SSAB. 

Please be aware that although SSAB endeavors to provide adequate security measures for personal data, no security system can prevent all potential security breaches.
