  1. Which data and which usage

Our work with data ethics is based on the Data Ethics Compass from the Data Ethics Council with the following areas: Self-determination, Dignity, Responsibility, Equality and Justice, Progressiveness and Diversity. The data we use can be both personally identifiable and non-personally identifiable data. This is primarily about data in relation to our deliveries of our products and services. We only use data that is collected i) directly from customers, ii) from valid sources about which the customer is informed or iii) from publicly available data.

The collected data is primarily used for statistics, analysis and development in order to optimize the delivery of our products and services.

We use new technologies to in the form of artificial intelligence and the use of such technologies will take place with a view to optimizing the delivery of products and services and in compliance with the points mentioned above in the Data Ethics Compass.

  1. Data of our customers

Our goal for data ethical behavior is to have a responsible use of data at all times and to create transparency in the company's data collection, data handling and data development. Our data ethics behavior must contribute positively to the customers' security, based on the fact that the data the customer hands over to the company is the customer's own and is processed within the applicable legal framework.

  1. Third parties

Kramp uses numerous third parties in different countries and we aim to ensure that third parties are as data ethically responsible as we are. Kramp therefore for example has drawn up a code for our suppliers, the “Kramp Supplier Code of Conduct". Uniform requirements are placed on third parties, so that activities carried out by external parties on behalf of Kramp are carried out with the same ethical considerations in mind as if they had been carried out internally. In practice, this is expressed in the underlying processes that exist in the selection of suppliers and business partners, where these are measured on their ethical value set. The same applies to the ongoing control of contracts, data processing agreements, SLAs, etc., where propriety and ethics are included in the considerations during the control.

  1. Data based decisions

Kramp uses new technologies to a limited extent in the form of artificial intelligence etc. and the use of such technologies will take place with a view to optimizing the delivery of products and services and in compliance with the points mentioned above in the Data Ethics Compass.

  1. Implementation and compliance with our data ethical intentions

Kramp ensures that employees contribute to ethical and responsible data processing of personal data and other data. Therefore, the company works continuously with education and training of its employees, which ensures that employees are well informed about data ethics, data security and correct handling of personal data and other data. Kramp will continue to have focus on continuous training of employees and control of data processing.

The board will once a year, assessing whether the policy for data ethics needs to be updated and is responsible for implementing the policy in the company's daily operations.

Our work with data ethics is anchored in the information security department. The responsibility for integrating data ethics in daily operations rests with the managers of the relevant business units, which is done by establishing relevant business procedures and processes for their implementation in the responsible departments.
