We provide this Privacy Statement to help you understand what we may do with any personal information that we obtain from you. By providing your personal information to us, you signify your acceptance of this Privacy Statement, and agree that we may collect, use, and disclose your personal information as described herein. If you do not agree to this statement, please do not provide your personal information to us via this website.

 

APPLIED ACTS AND ARTICLES

As data controller under the General Data Protection Regulation, the Academy is obliged to inform all data subjects about their rights in respect of processing of their data.

Personal data is registered in accordance with Article 6 of the General Data Protection Regulation. Sensible data, i.e. data on health or data revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs or trade union membership, and data concerning a person’s sexual relations and sexual orientation is registered in accordance with Article 9 of the said Regulation. Processing of sensible data in research projects is covered by Section 10 of the Act on Data Protection. According to this Act, the Academy may only process sensible personal data and data concerning criminal convictions and offences, if the processing is aimed at statistical or scientific studies with potential public interest and if the processing is necessary to conduct the studies.

 

PROCESSING AND STORAGE

The Academy processes personal data strictly confidential. Personal data will be processed and stored in the Academys it-systems. When the data is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, it is deleted or filed in the Academys records.

The Academy may store the data if it is part of a lawsuit or if the Academy is considering using the data in a lawsuit.

 

DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION

Information will not be disclosed to anyone without the data subject being informed unless the Academy is obliged to disclose the information to other public authorities or unions/accredited representatives. These unions/accredited representatives are considered to be independent data controllers.

 

DATA INSIGHT

Data subjects may contact the Academy at any time to obtain copies of the information stored in the Academys records or filing systems.

 

CORRECTION OF INFORMATION

If the data subject believes that incorrect information has been stored, they may ask the Academy to correct the information. The information will be corrected accordingly or it will be noted in the files that the person concerned has asked for a correction.

The data subject is entitled to the information being ignored until it is decided which information is correct. Data subjects are also entitled to request that the Academy does not use the information if it is no longer needed.

 

OBJECTIONS

Data subjects have the right to object to the processing of information unless SAFD processes the information as part of a task assigned to the Academy by other authorities.

 

WITHDRAWAL OF CONSENT AND THE RIGHT TO ERASURE OF INFORMATION

If the Academy has obtained the consent of a data subject to process information, the data subject may at any time withdraw the consent. If the consent is withdrawn, the Academy may not continue to process information after the consent has been withdrawn.

The data subject has the right to erasure of information recorded by the Academy provided the information is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected.

The information must be erased also when the data subject withdraws the consent or in case the information has been processed unlawfully by mistake. The data subject has, however, no right to erasure of information that has been filed in the Academys archives in accordance with the Archives Act.

 

COMPLAINTS

Data subjects are entitled to lodge complaints about the processing of their data to the Data Protection Agency (Datatilsynet) via dt@dt.dk.

PROTECTION OF PERSONAL DATA

According to the Data Protection Act and the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), your personal data must be kept secure and confidential.

However, we cannot guarantee 100 percent security for data transfers over the Internet. This means that there can be a risk of unauthorized outsiders deliberately accessing the protected data when data is transferred and stored electronically. Thus, you are providing your personal information at your own risk.

The rapid development of the Internet may necessitate changes to the way in which we process personal information. We therefore reserve the right to update and amend these guidelines for the processing of personal data.
