Storage
Only a select few administrators of Garmeres - Norwegian section belonging to a membership data access group will at any time have access to personal data of registered members of Garmeres - Norwegian section.
Registration storage
When you register as a member of Garmeres - Norwegian section by using the membership registration form, the registered user data will be temporarily stored on an AWS Lightsail instance located in Stockholm, Sweden, where administrators belonging to the membership data access group may see and verify the registrations.

If a registration can not be verified within 3 months, we will delete the registration.

We will store your membership data for up to 2 years after the last contingency payment, unless a request is sent to delete your data.
