Use of aggregated data

Where Data can be aggregated (and anonymised), we may use this for research purposes without restriction. For example, we may monitor customer traffic patterns, website and Services usage and related information to optimise users’ usage of the website and Services and we may give aggregated statistics to a reputable third-party.

We are entitled to do this because the resulting data will not personally identify you and will therefore  no longer constitute personal data for the purposes of data protection laws.

5 How do we keep your information secure?

We recognise and take seriously our responsibility to protect the personal data you entrust to BRK from loss or misuse. We understand the importance of keeping your personal information secure and take appropriate technical and physical steps to safeguard it. BRK uses a variety of security technologies and organisational procedures to help protect your personal data. For example, we implement access controls, use firewalls and secure servers, and we encrypt  data, such as financial information, personal data and other important data using Secure Sockets Layer standard encryption. We always ensure only authorised persons have access to your information, which means only our employees and contractors, and that everyone who has access is appropriately trained to manage your information.

We are confident that we have protections in place to keep your personal data safe. In addition, we have procedures in place in the event that we have any breaches and will notify you and our regulator of a breach where we are legally obliged to do so.

6 Who has access to your information?

  • Your personal data will be processed by BRK and  may also be transferred to and processed by other companies within the Bonhams  group as  listed at the beginning of this Policy. BRK uses and regulates the transfer and processing of data between group companies in accordance with applicable data protection laws.
  • We do not transfer your personal data to third parties who wish to use it for their own marketing or other purposes. As a rule, we do not share your personal data with the other websites and collaborators who may be named on our website. We encourage you to read the privacy policies of other websites that you may access from our website, and which govern the collection of personal data by those collaborators.
  • We will only transfer your personal data to third parties where it is necessary to enable us to provide you with the services you have requested (for example, our bank, payment card system operators, shippers, warehouse operatives, insurers, experts who help us authenticate or value property, event venues, caterers, catalogue and direct marketing fulfilment and distribution). These organisations will only use the information to carry out the instructed services and on the basis, that the information is confidential and secure. Some of these organisations may be located outside the EEA or outside of the US if you are  a US based resident (please see below).
  • We may need to carry out anti-money laundering and trade sanction checks and for us to do so we may need to retain and disclose certain information about you to appropriate agencies. This is also to assist with fraud, crime prevention and detection.We may also need to provide your data to authorities (e.g. the Danish Nature Agency and the Danish Business Authority) in connection with, for example, applying for permits on your behalf. We will otherwise only disclose your personal data in response to a request from a government or law enforcement authority when we are ordered to do so by a court or in response to a request from the police, after we have undertaken an internal review and concluded that the institution making the request has both complied with the correct procedure and has the right to seek disclosure or where disclosure is necessary to protect our rights or the rights of others and is not prohibited by law.
  • Third parties who provide services for us, for example our mailing houses and providers of database and marketing tools. We select our third-party service providers with care. We will provide these third parties with only the information that is necessary to provide the service and we will have an agreement in place that requires them to operate with the same care over data protection as we do.
  • Third parties if we run an event in conjunction with them. We will let you know how your data is used when you register for any such event.
  • Analytics and search engine providers that help us to improve the Site and its use.
  • Third parties in connection with restructuring or reorganisation of our operations, for example if we merge with another business. In such event, we will take steps to ensure your privacy rights will be protected by the third party.

Other than this, we will not share your information with other organisations without your consent.

7 International transfers of data outside of the EU/EEA

The information you provide to us may be transferred to countries outside the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area (EEA) or to countries which are not subject to the same data protection regulations as apply in the EU or EEA pursuant to the GDPR. We ensure that the information transferred to such countries has equivalent protection as if it were being held under the GDPR by requiring that any third party processing your data outside the EU/EEA benefits from an adequacy determination for GDPR purposes and/or, where appropriate, we have entered into a data processing agreement to regulate the processing of personal data.

8 How to keep your information up to date

You can notify us if your contact details change, by contacting us at privacy@bruun-rasmussen.dk

Additionally, do ensure you notify us of any changes to your personal data whenever you transact with us.

9 How long we keep your information

We will hold your personal information for as long as it is necessary to provide the relevant services, maintain business records as required under tax, legal and other regulatory requirements and protect and defend against potential legal claims.

If you have made a purchase with us, we will retain personal data relating to that purchase for five years following that purchase (as required by law). Any other personal data relating to your bids or transactions with us will be placed in a protected environment with limited access for three years (unless there is a legitimate need for a longer storage time).

With regard to personal data relating to ownership, provenance and/or title of art objects, we will keep this data indefinitely given our legitimate business interests in keeping this data. Please contact us if you wish to obtain further information.

If you ask us to stop contacting you with marketing materials, we will keep a record of your contact details and limited information needed to ensure we comply with your request.

10 Your rights

We may from time to time send you communications regarding our services which you have expressed an interest in, or we feel may be of interest to you. You can opt out of receiving these marketing materials and communications at any time by using the unsubscribe link contained in all relevant communications to you or contacting us at privacy@bruun-rasmussen.dk

You can also opt-out of receiving direct marketing material from us.

You have the right to request details of the processing activities that we carry out with your personal information by making a data subject access request (DSAR).

  • the right to access;
  • the right to request rectification of information that is inaccurate or out of date;
  • the right to erasure of your information (the “right to be forgotten”);
