Rendahls Upplevelser strävar efter att endast behålla data som är nödvändiga för att effektivt genomföra sina programaktiviteter och arbeta för att uppfylla sitt uppdrag.
The need to retain data varies widely depending on the type of data and the purpose for which it was collected. Rendahls Upplevelser endeavours to ensure that data is only retained for the period necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected and is fully deleted when no longer required. This policy sets out Rendahls Upplevelser’s guidelines on data retention and is to be consistently applied throughout the organisation.
Scope
This policy covers all data collected by Rendahls Upplevelser and stored on Rendahls Upplevelser-owned or leased systems and media, regardless of location. It applies to data collected and held electronically (including photographs, video and audio recordings) and data collected and held as hard copy or paper files. The need to retain certain information may be mandated by federal or local law, federal regulations and legitimate business purposes, as well as the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
Reasons for Data Retention
Rendahls Upplevelser only retains data that is necessary to effectively conduct its programme activities, fulfil its mission and comply with applicable laws and regulations.

- Compliance with applicable laws and regulations related to financial and programmatic reporting by Rendahls Upplevelser to its funding agencies and other donors
- Compliance with applicable labour, tax and immigration laws
- Other regulatory requirements
- Security incident or other investigation

Data Duplication
Rendahls Upplevelser seeks to avoid duplication in data storage whenever possible, though there may be instances in which for programmatic or other business reasons it is necessary for data to be held in more than one place. This policy applies to all data in Rendahls Upplevelser’s possession, including duplicate copies of data.

Data Destruction
Data destruction ensures that Rendahls Upplevelser manages the data it controls and processes it in an efficient and responsible manner. When the retention period for the data as outlined above expires, Rendahls Upplevelser will actively destroy the data covered by this policy. If an individual believes that there exists a legitimate business reason why certain data should not be destroyed at the end of a retention period, he or she should identify this data to his/her supervisor and provide information as to why the data should not be destroyed. Any exceptions to this data retention policy must be approved by Rendahls Upplevelser’s data protection officer in consultation with legal counsel. In rare circumstances, a litigation hold may be issued by legal counsel prohibiting the destruction of certain documents. A litigation hold remains in effect until released by legal counsel and prohibits the destruction of data subject to the hold.
