Summary

This page was last updated in September 2026. Any material changes to this notice will be summarised on our website.

This privacy notice is intended for all internet users, including users who are also customers, applicants and investors. Please read this privacy policy carefully as it describes how we use your personal data.

What does “we” (“Kingspan”, “us” or “our”) mean?

We are Kingspan Holdings (Ireland) Limited (“Kingspan Group”) and its affiliates, each a “Kingspan Affiliate”.

We operate the Paroc Panel Systems group website at parocpanels.com, which includes country-specific sections managed centrally by Kingspan Group.

When you use the parocpanels.com website, including any country-specific section, Kingspan AB acts as the data controller for your personal data collected or accessed through the website. If you use a divisional subdomain, your personal data is processed independently by the Kingspan Division or Affiliate responsible for that subdomain, acting as an independent data controller.

Kingspan Group and each Kingspan Affiliate are separate and independent data controllers. If they process your personal data, they do so separately, independently and for their own purposes. We explain each purpose in this privacy notice. This means that each data controller is separately responsible for complying with the obligations applicable under relevant data protection legislation.

If you would like to exercise any of your rights as a data subject, as set out below in this Privacy Policy, please contact the Kingspan Affiliate in your country or contact Kingspan Group if this is easier for you. Your request will then be sent to the relevant data controller in accordance with your instructions.

We use your personal data for marketing purposes. More information about how we use your data for marketing can be found in the Marketing section below in this notice.

Where necessary or where you consent to it, we share your personal data with other Kingspan companies and third parties. More information about how we share your personal data can be found in the “Who do we share your information with?” section later in this notice.

It is important that you only provide us with your own personal data and ensure that the personal data you provide is accurate and up to date. Please note that you are responsible for any incorrect, third-party or otherwise inaccurate personal data that you provide to us.

If you have any questions about this privacy notice, please contact your responsible data controller.

Our Website Terms of Use explain the terms under which you are entitled to use our website, www.parocpanels.com, which provides access to our products and services as well as a great deal of other useful information.

What do we do with the information we collect?

In the table below, we have summarised the purposes for which we use your personal data and who uses your data for each purpose:

Legal bases for processing

The legal bases on which we process your personal data are:

• Necessary for compliance with a legal or regulatory obligation to which we are subject;

• Necessary for the performance of a contract with you or to take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract with you;

• Necessary for the purposes of our legitimate interests. For example:

• in marketing and promoting our products and services and conducting business responsibly and prudently; or

• when Kingspan Group receives an inquiry to be sent to one of our affiliates, it is in Kingspan Group's interest to provide you with the best possible service. Therefore, Kingspan Group will forward the request to the appropriate affiliate on your behalf, rather than asking you to resend it.

We will not process your personal data for these purposes where those legitimate interests would be overridden by your own interests, rights and freedoms; or

• only in certain circumstances, namely where you have consented to the processing of your personal data, for example to receive marketing communications from third parties or to consent to the use of Kingspan Group or third party cookies.

Marketing

We would like to provide you with information about Paroc Panel Systems products and services, as well as other information from Paroc Panel Systems that we think may be of interest to you. We may send such information by post, email and/or telephone if you consent to it.

With your explicit consent, we use external organisations to send you Kingspan offers and marketing communications. To do this, they will either collect information directly from you, or we will otherwise provide them with your personal data. These external organisations include contractors, merchants, distributors, retailers and other service providers outside Kingspan. When we work with third parties, we make joint decisions about how your personal data is used and are jointly responsible for complying with the law. If you have questions about the processing of your data for marketing purposes, please contact the relevant data controller. More information about our third-party providers and their use of personal data for marketing purposes can be found in our Cookie Policy.

You can unsubscribe from marketing communications at any time. If you have received marketing communications from one of our Kingspan companies and no longer wish to receive them, unsubscribe via the link in the email or by any other means communicated to you at the time.

Please note that, as a group, we do not operate a global marketing database because each company is an independent data controller. This means that Kingspan Group cannot centrally unsubscribe you from email lists for marketing communications from all Kingspan companies.

Who do we share your information with?

Affiliated Kingspan companies share your personal information with the Kingspan Group as the Kingspan Group operates the global website.

We may disclose your personal information to third parties in your country and in countries other than your own, in accordance with applicable laws.

Where we have your express consent, we may share your personal information with outside organizations (e.g. contractors, retailers, distributors, retailers, media agencies and service providers outside of Kingspan) so that they can inform you about their promotions, services, events and other activities in relation to Kingspan products and services without having obtained consent from you. An example of this is a vendor that places cookies on your device to personalize information about our products and services to you.

Because we are a global company, the countries to which your personal information is sent or accessed may have different data protection standards than the country in which you are located. However, we have safeguards and appropriate safeguards in place to ensure that your information is adequately protected and that we comply with the law. If you would like to know more about the protections we have put in place to protect your information, please contact the Kingspan Group or the affiliate you normally deal with. A list of data controllers and their contact details can be found here.

When organizations outside of Kingspan provide you with a service on our behalf or assist us in providing the service to you (e.g. sending you a document you have requested or assisting in responding to your query regarding the technical operation of the website), or provide us professional advice, we may share your personal information with those organizations that will only use the information to provide the relevant service. However, we retain responsibility for your personal information and any third party service provider we use must act in accordance with our instructions and protect the confidentiality and security of the personal information appropriately.

We may share your personal information with a buyer or prospective buyer of our business.

We may disclose your Personal Information to third parties, their agents and professional advisers who are bound by confidentiality obligations to conduct third party due diligence in connection with any proposed merger, acquisition, restructuring or transfer of any portion of our business, and to individuals who intend to participate in, promote or commit to or administer any such arrangement.

In certain circumstances, we are required by law to disclose your personal information where a court or the police or other law enforcement authority has ordered us to do so.

Storage of your data

We only store your personal data for as long as is necessary to use your personal data as described above or to comply with our legal obligations.

If your personal data is processed with your consent (e.g. for marketing purposes), this personal data will be stored until you withdraw consent for this processing or until the period required by law is reached.

Your rights, how to obtain copies of or change the information we collect and how to make a complaint

You can request details of the personal information we hold about you under data protection laws. If you wish to exercise any of the rights set out below, please contact your data controller directly. See here for details.

You may object to the processing of your personal data where there are legitimate grounds for doing so, provided that we have no legal obligation to carry out that processing. For the avoidance of doubt, processing for marketing purposes can be objected to at any time.

If you believe that any information Kingspan holds about you is incorrect, incomplete or not being processed properly, please write to Kingspan Group. Your request will then be forwarded to your data controller(s), or you can contact your data controller directly and the latter will delete, block, correct, update, no longer process or restrict the processing of any information, depending on your request and subject to the conditions required by law.

If the information processing is based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw this consent at any time.

Where our processing of your personal data is based on your consent or is necessary for the performance of a contract with you, you can request that we provide you or a third party with a copy of your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format.

If you wish to make an order about how your personal data is handled after your death, please let us know and we will comply with that order.

If you wish to make a complaint about an alleged breach of law, we ask that you send us your complaint in writing to the relevant Kingspan company at the address provided here. We will respond to complaints and take remedial action in accordance with legal requirements. Independently of this, you can always lodge a complaint with the data protection authority in the country in which the relevant Kingspan company is based or in which you live.

Security

Kingspan is committed to keeping your information safe. In order to prevent unauthorized access or disclosure, we have put in place suitable physical, electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect.

If at any time you suspect or become aware of a security incident (e.g. your password to access your registered account on this website is stolen or you receive a suspicious communication from someone impersonating a Kingspan employee or from a fraudulent website claiming to be affiliated with Kingspan), please forward the report to us or email the incident to [email protected] as soon as possible or in writing to Kingspan Holdings (Ireland) Limited, Dublin Road, Kingscourt, Co Cavan, A82 XY31, Republic of Ireland.

Once you have left our website/marketing email message we can no longer be responsible for the content of those third-party websites or for the security and privacy of any information you provide to those websites.
