- Contact information, such as e-mail address
- User data, such as smoking habits and demographic data
- Customer support information, such as conversations with support for the Service
The above mentioned data is processed for the following purposes:
- Deliver the Service - For Alex to support you as you become and stay smoke free the Service uses your personal data, e.g. your smoking habits.
- Create market insights - In order to help as many people as possible, Alex creates statistics and market insights based on your contact information. You will not be contacted for marketing purposes, but Alex will be able to find others who are similar to you.
- Contact Users via email - You will occasionally get tips and support sent to your email, as a complement of the service. You can choose to unsubscribe at any time.
All of the above processing of data rely on the user's explicit consent.
For the above purposes, Alex Therapeutics AB may hire personal data assistants to produce statistical data and market insights. If this involves a transfer to a third country or an international organization, Alex Therapeutics AB will always ensure that there is a commission decision on the adequate level of protection or alternatively that the assistant through agreements or otherwise can guarantee appropriate protective measures.
You always have the right to:

- Get out and transfer personal data to another person responsible for personal data in some cases (data portability).
- You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data based on a balance of interests. Continued processing of your personal data requires, in such a case, that We may display mandatory justifications that outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms or whether it is for the purposes of the determination, exercise or defense of legal claims.
