This Privacy Policy explains how Nexus Connect AS ("Nexus", "we", "us") collects, uses, and protects personal data when you use the Nexus equity management platform. We are committed to protecting your privacy in accordance with the GDPR, the Norwegian Personal Data Act (personopplysningsloven), and other applicable data protection laws.

1. Who We Are

Nexus Connect AS is the data controller for personal data processed through the Platform in connection with account management, billing, and customer communications. Where Nexus processes personal data (e.g. shareholder records) on behalf of a Customer, Nexus acts as a data processor and the Customer is the data controller. Processing in that context is governed by a separate Data Processing Agreement (DPA).
