Who we are

PurCity is a Danish based company founded on March 2016, aiming to improve the human’s life quality by purifying AIR & WATER in cities.

Offering smart, innovative, affordable and high-quality solutions to help change the world to a better place.

This privacy policy explains how PurCity (”we” or ”us”) processes your personal information in connection with the offer of www.PurCity.com and the PurCity app. After the Privacy Policy, you can find our Cookie Policy.

We believe that it is really important for everyone to look after their privacy so please bear with us while we walk you through this update.

We have been preparing for the recent European Union General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The GDPR means there are new and updated requirements as to how we process personal data and as such, we have adapted to these changes, implemented them and intend to fully reflect the new legislation. The GDPR legislation including official translations can be downloaded from this website. 

We have always been committed to strict data privacy and security, and will continue to do so with changing laws.
