Security of personal information
We have done everything we can to ensure
that your data is safe with us. Personal
information will only be in plain text in
your browser and on our secure server.
It is stated in the privacy policy that
both your personal information and Bitmynt´s
bitcoin are stored on the secure server, and
they are equally secure. If Bitmynts bitcoin
were to disappear or there are other
indications that a third-party has gained
access to your personal information that we
have stored, we will contact you.
Access to personal information internally in Bitmynt AS
Employees only have access to personal
information they need to see in the position
they hold. Therefore, if you speak to an
employee, it is not certain that they can
see all the information we have about you.
Disclosure and use of personal information
We do not share personal information with
anyone unless required by law or regulation.
During normal use of our website, no
components will be loaded from third
parties, and no third parties will be able
to set cookies or other indications that you
have visited our pages.
You are entitled to obtain all information
about yourself, within the limitations set
by section § 32 of the anti-money laundering
act (prohibition against disclosing
information collected in the connection with
investigations and possible reporting of
suspicious transactions).
Situations where the law requires us to
share information with others may include
reporting to Økokrim about suspicious
transactions or an order to disclosure
information concerning a specific case from
the police. The Norwegian Tax Administration
also has broad powers to demand information
to be disclosed. The Financial Supervisory
Authority may conduct an inspection and
request to see all documentation to verify
that Bitmynt AS follows all procedures.
We will not disclose personal information
to third parties unless they have a clear
legal basis, or if you ask us to disclose
specific information to a specific third
party, for example, if you ask us to send
information to about transactions to the
Norwegian Tax Administration for automatic
filling of your tax return.
We will not use personal information or
contact information for marketing purposes,
or disclose information to others who engage
in marketing, unless you specifically
provide the information to receive news from
us, for example, if you request to be
notified via email when we launch a new
service.
Use of contact information
We may use contact information to inform
you about important changes to our services,
such as the discontinuation of a service you
use or changes to them terms of use or
privacy statement. We will also contact you
if we have a reason to believe that
unauthorised parties may have gained access
to your personal information, to update
customer information to comply with the
requirements of the anti-money laundering
act that they must be kept-up-to-date, or if
we need more information about a specific
transaction.
Cookies
Our website sets a cookie in the browser to
identify you as a logged-in user. This is
not shared with others and is not used to
track you. It is deleted when you log
out. Additionally, the browser stores some
information locally for the website to
function faster. We do not load any
components from third parties. We will not
use advertising networks that track
customers, we do not have tracking links in
emails sent to you, and we are cautious with
social networks that track you and sell
information about you.
Correction and deletion
The law requires that Bitmynt AS stores
identification documentation for five years
after our last transaction. If you identify
yourself to establish a customer
relationship but do not carry out any
transactions, we will delete the information
after five years. Alternatively, you may
request that we delete the information
earlier.
Changes to this privacy statement
We will contact you if we make changes to
this statement that allow us to use your

about purely linguistic changes or
