Who do we share your personal data with?

Swedish Match may disclose your personal data to other companies within the Swedish Match Group and to partners, such as IT service providers.

In certain cases, despite your request, we must retain your personal data, for example, due to legal requirements related to accounting or taxation, or because we need to retain the data for the purpose of establishing, exercising, or defending legal claims.
