We care about your privacy

Your trust is important to us. Our aim is that you feel safe when you share your personal data with us. Personal data is any information that can be used to identify an individual.

We take appropriate measures to ensure that your personal data always is safe with us and that the processing of your personal data is compliant with present data protection laws, our internal policies, guidelines and routines. We have also assigned a Data protection officer whose task is to monitor that we follow these laws, guidelines and routines.

It is important for us to be transparent with how we handle your personal data. In this information text, we therefore describe how and where we process personal data in the context of My Rimi loyalty program and Rimi Online store.

If you do not agree to the processing of personal data as described in this information text you cannot create an account, place order or receive benefits or services that My Rimi loyalty program and Rimi Online store offers.

  • Which categories of personal data we collect and why

    Creation and administration of your profile in Rimi e-store

    We process your personal data to give you the opportunity to create your personal profile in Rimi e-store, so that you can use the information stored in the profile to place an order in the e-store, to choose to receive information about new offers from Rimi e-store, to view your previous order history, save baskets, save your favourite products and see your usually bought products.

    We process your personal data to administer your registration in Rimi e-store. In order for us to register you and administer your profile, you must provide the personal details required for the conclusion and performance of the contract. In addition to the mandatory fields you will need to enter your date of birth, so that Rimi can verify that you do not already have an account in the Rimi system. Date of birth data will only be used to complete verification; it will not be stored. If you do not provide the necessary personal information, you will not be able to place an order in Rimi e-store. If you are unable to complete any of the required fields, you must contact Customer Support. Your data will be used to assemble and deliver orders to you, contact you, respond to your requests, ensure that your information is accurate and up-to-date.
