An assertion of user ownership and control over shared data is a significant privacy representation, though the clause does not specify what legal mechanisms enforce this ownership.
Interpretive note: The clause asserts user ownership and control as a factual statement but does not define what 'own and control' means legally or operationally, nor does it describe any enforcement mechanism. Confidence is medium because the practical scope of this representation is unclear from the quoted language alone.
Klarna represents that you retain ownership of and control over data you share with it.
