Data retention

A DbVisualizer subscription needs to be renewed annually to provide access to new versions. If a customer fails to renew, the customer still has a perpetual license to use their then current version of the software. DbVis Software AB, at its discretion, may allow customers with lapsed licenses to renew without back charges to get back to accessing the latest versions.

This means that license data, financial records and related material is kept as long as the customer has a license of any kind of the software. DbVis Software AB will delete all data pertaining to the customer and its users and contact persons if and after a customer voluntarily cedes its perpetual license and deletes all copies of DbVisualizer and confirm this in writing to DbVisualizer Software AB.

Data not related to licenses, financial records, and support history will be purged no later than 24 months after collection. Personal data relating to job applications may be stored for 24 months after the recruitment process has been completed such as to defend ourselves against possible claims concerning violations of the Swedish Discrimination Act.

If you represent company, organization or institution, please provide relevant contact information on a new contact person. Please note that we may not be able to provide you or the company, organization or institution you represent the DbVis Software and related services in the event that you wish to have your personal data deleted.
