Personal Data Processor
To provide and administer Akademisk kvart's services, SSCO uses Amazon Web Services (AWS) as a personal data processor for the operation, storage, and technical management of user data and user accounts. Personal data is primarily processed within the EU/EEA. If personal data is, in exceptional cases, transferred to countries outside the EU/EEA, this is done in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and with appropriate safeguards, such as the EU Commission's standard contractual clauses (SCC). SSCO has a data processing agreement with AWS and is responsible for ensuring that processing takes place in a secure and lawful manner.
Responsibility and misuse
Akademisk kvart is not responsible for the accuracy of information that users publish themselves. In case of suspected fraud, unlawful subletting, or discrimination, we reserve the right to review, deny, or remove advertisements as well as suspend users.
