In legal terms, this refers to the responsibility for determining the purposes of the handling of personal data and the means used in this handling. Performing Arts Hub Norway is responsible for ensuring that the treatment of personal data meets legal obligations. In the following, you will see where the responsibility is delegated. This delegation only concerns the actual tasks, not the responsibility.
HOW DO WE STORE AND HOW DO WE USE THE INFORMATION?
Below, you will find a description of which data we collect, what we use it for, and which options you have. Our services are directed towards professional performing arts (B2B) and not towards private citizens. Please feel free to contact us if there is anything unclear. If we do not hear from you, we conclude that you understand and accept that we store your personal data for best to be of assistance to you.
– Our application portal stikk.no stores contact information, account numbers, organisation numbers, plus attachments, application texts and reports uploaded by the applicants. Information about allotments is also stored. This information is used for treatment of applications, public releases about allotted funds, plus generated statistics (anonymised). If you do not wish to share this information, you are excluded from applying for funds. Performing Arts Hub Norway is legally responsible for the handling of this data.
– Our accounting system stores necessary information connected to paying out funds, such as addresses, account numbers and organisation numbers, according to accounting laws. Performing Arts Hub Norway is legally responsible for the handling of this data.
– Our internal project management system stores contact information from our professional users and collaborators (B2B), and the history of their participation in our own and our collaborators' events. Performing Arts Hub Norway is legally responsible for the handling of this data.
– Our newsletter database only stores names, e-mail addresses and countries. This is used for regular dispatches of information concerning the field. Information on how to unsubscribe is included in every newsletter. Campaign Monitor processes this data. Your data is stored with us only for the abovementioned purpose, and we do not share it except for specific circumstances (see below).

HOW DO WE COLLECT INFORMATION?
We collect information via application forms in stikk.no, via collaboration with festivals/arrangers with international visiting programmes, via participation in our events, via direct contact from the field (e-mail), plus via open sources online (webpages).
WITH WHOM DO WE SHARE INFO?
We share applications with members of external committees for evaluation, with embassies or consulates in the relevant countries, and with the media, when requested (note: we do not share business sensitive information). We also share contact information from participants of shared events and visiting programmes with our collaboration partners, mainly festivals and larger trade events. To share this is necessary to realise collaboration projects, and the delegates need to consent to this.
HOW LONG DO WE STORE INFORMATION ABOUT YOU?
Based in assignments from The Norwegian Ministry of Culture, Performing Arts Hub Norway stores personal data necessary to meet our mandate. This means that we are obligated to store personal information for a longer time, to be able to report on issues relevant to our work and the government's need for culture statistics. Information from our application portal which is not regarded as necessary to store long-term (for instance social security numbers or account information), is deleted after the work on the application is complete.
