Use of pictures

We have an interest in portraying ourselves in a positive light, as business partner, place of employment, or otherwise. For this purpose, we might publish pictures online, if we find them to be harmless to any persons depicted. We find this interest to be legitimate and to not go beyond any interests nor rights of the persons depicted. (GDPR art. 6(1)(f))

If you are going to appear in marketing materials, promotional videos, or similar things, we will make sure it happens based on your consent (GDPR art. 6(1)(a)) or signed modelling contract (GDPR art. 6(1)(b)).

We will always delete pictures that no longer serve their purpose. We will also delete them if our contract for the use of the pictures is voided, or if you revoke your consent for the use of the pictures. You can always reach out to us, if you wish to object to the use of your pictures.

Suppliers & business partners

When we enter contracts with suppliers or other business partners, it is necessary for us to collect and store information about their points of contact/account managers etc. We typically limit such processing to just:

  • Name, e-mail, phone number and title/role

Our purpose with this processing is to adhere to our obligations and commitments under our contracts as well as to ensure efficient communication.

Our legal basis for this processing is:

  • Our obligations and commitments under our contracts (GDPR art. 6(1)(b))

Any information collected for this purpose will typically be deleted once a contract is fulfilled, unless we have specific reason to retain them for longer. We are required by law to retain our bookkeeping materials for 5 years from the end of the year they were filed. This may include some personal information, which will then be deleted along with the rest of the bookkeeping materials, once the retention period has passed – unless we have other reasons for keeping them, such as warranties or complaints.

Video surveillance

On select locations we have set up video surveillance. When you enter the areas, where we have video surveillance, you and your actions within view of the cameras can be recorded. We have made sure that you are aware when being recorded, by setting up videorecording signs (pictograms).

Our purpose with the surveillance is crime prevention and physical security in/around our facilities/premises.

Our legal basis for the processing is:

  • Our legitimate interest in securing our facilities against criminal activities (GDPR art. 6(1)(f))

We may pass along the surveillance videos to public authorities, including the police, in connection with investigations of criminal offences. This transfer is permitted under the Danish Video Surveillance Act § 4c.

We have guidelines in place for deleting our recordings. We store the recordings securely and for no longer than 30 days, unless specific circumstances necessitate longer retention.

Whistleblower

We process personal data from whistleblower reports to carry out an effective and necessary investigation. If you choose to remain anonymous, we will not receive or process your personal data.

Depending on the information you choose to provide in connection with your report, we may process the following personal data:

  • Name, e-mail, telephone number
  • Contents of the report

We process the information on the following legal bases:

  • For general information: GDPR art. 6(1)(c), cf. Section 22 of the Whistleblower Act
  • For sensitive information: GDPR art. 9(2)(b), cf. Section 22 of the Whistleblower Act
  • For information concerning criminal offences: Section 8(3) of the Danish Data Protection Act, cf. Section 22 of the Whistleblower Act

We retain personal data for as long as it is deemed necessary:

  • The data will be retained for the duration of an investigation. The retention period thereafter will depend on the outcome of the investigation.
  • If a report is made to the police or another authority, the data will be retained for at least as long as the investigation is ongoing with the police/authority.
  • If, based on the report, we implement a disciplinary sanction to an employee, or if in other ways there are valid reasons to keep the report for future investigation, we store the information in the employee’s personal file and delete it in accordance with the data deletion policy for employee data.
  • If the report proves to be unfounded, the personal data will be deleted shortly after it is established that the report was unfounded.

Recruitment

If you apply for a position with us, we will process all the information included with your application, CV, and any other attached documents. We may choose to reach out to any references you have included with your application. Any information about you collected from references will be processed with your application.

Please note: We do not need you to include your national identification number (CPR-number) with your application.

Our purpose with collecting information about you in the recruitment process is to assess, whether you are the right candidate for a position with us.

Our legal basis for this processing is:

  • Our legitimate interest in assessing your qualifications and skills pertaining to the position we are seeking to fill (GDPR art. 6(1)(f)).

If, during the recruitment process, we collect and process your national identification number or any information about criminal convictions and offences, we do so in accordance with the following:

  • If you are applying for a position, for which we need to see your diplomas or other papers and documentation, and if your national identification number / CPR-number appears on that documentation, we process it for the purpose of verifying the authenticity of your documents in order to establish, exercise, or defend against legal claims. The legal basis for this is (Danish Data Protection Act § 11, subsection 2, no. 4, cf. § 7, subsection 1 cf. GDPR art. 9(2)(f)).
  • If we find it relevant for the position, you are applying for, we will require your certificate of criminal record/ “straffeattest”. We do this for the purpose of ensuring your suitability for the position, and our legal basis is your consent (Danish Data Protection Act § 8, subsection 3).

If you include sensitive personal information with your application, we will process it based on the following legal basis:

  • Our legitimate interest in assessing your potential future with us, and a necessity for assessing and establishing any legal claims related to the recruitment process. (GDPR 6(1) (f & c) and (GDRP art. 9(2)(f)).

We will keep your application with addendums for up to 6 months beyond recruitment being finalized. After that point, your information will be deleted. Our purpose for this retention is to protect ourselves against any legal claims resulting from the recruitment process. For as to the legal basis for this processing, please see the section above.

If we find your profile to be of interest, albeit not for any currently open position, we may wish to keep your application with addendums for potential future positions. If this is the case, we will get your consent before the continued retention (GDPR art. 6(1)(a)).

Unsolicited applications must be submitted through official channels and not to individual members of staff within the organisation. Unsolicited applications received through unofficial channels will be deleted immediately. Unsolicited applications received through official channels will be retained and deleted in accordance with the same criteria as all other applications, see above.

According to data protection legislation, you have the right to be informed, whether giving us your personal information is a requirement by law, or a necessity for entering into a contract with us. You also have the right to be informed of any consequences of not giving us the information we ask of you.

Please note that according to the Danish Health Information Act, before an employee takes up a new position, they are required to divulge, whether they know they have a condition or symptoms of a condition that will have significant impact in their ability to carry out the tasks associated with the job. This means you must let us know of such conditions or symptoms, either when asked or by your own initiative, and if you do not, it may mean you cannot remain in the position.

Additionally, if we decided to offer you employment, we are required under the Danish Employment Contracts Act to ensure a fully compliant employment contract is signed between us. This requires your name and address. If you do not wish to give us the information needed for a legally compliant contract, we cannot sign you on for any position.

Transmission of personal information

We sometimes have third parties store and process information for us. That makes them a data processor for us. When we take on a data processor, we make sure to have a data processing agreement in place. The data processor will only process the information on our behalf and will not be allowed to use the information for their own purposes.

We prioritise suppliers located within the EU or in third countries covered by adequacy decisions from the European Commission, cf. GDPR art. 45.

If a transfer cannot be made on an adequacy decision from the European Commission, cf. GDPR art. 45. We will ensure other legal transfer mechanisms from GDPR chapter V. This could be EU SCC (Standard Contractual Clauses) cf. art. 46(2)(c). If you wish to know more about whether your personal information is transferred, and the steps we have taken to protect it you can reach out to us to learn more.

In some situations, your information will be passed on to other data controllers, such as banks, insurance brokers, debt collectors, distributors, tax authorities etc.

Your rights

By reaching out to us you can exercise your data subject rights. This means you can make a data subject request to:

  • gain access to any personal information we have about you
  • rectify any erroneous personal information about you
  • request deletion of your personal information
  • have the processing of your personal information restricted to only storage
  • receive a copy of your personal information for the purpose of moving it to another data controller (data portability)
  • object to our processing of your personal information. Please note: whether or not we can accommodate your objection depends on an assessment of e.g. legitimate interest (GDPR art. 6(1)(f)). You will receive an explanation of that assessment and its results.

Withdrawal of consent
In some situations, the processing of your data can be based on your consent (GDPR art. 6(1)(a)). If you give your consent for us to process your personal information, it must be freely given. It will have no negative consequences for you, if you do not give your consent, if you only consent to specific parts of the processing, or if you withdraw your previously given consent. Withdrawal of consent can happen at any given time by reaching out to the contacts above. If you choose to withdraw your consent, it will have no bearing on the lawfulness of our processing of your information in the period from when your consent was given and until you withdrew it.

When you reach out to us with a request to exercise your above-mentioned rights, we will get back to you within one month. If we cannot accommodate your request, we will let you know why.

Automated decisions
You will not be subject to profiling or decisions that will have a significant impact on you based solely on automated processing, unless we have a legal basis for doing so and we have informed you of this. We do not expect to make decisions about you using automated methods, but we will notify you in writing if this changes.

If you are not satisfied with our handling of your personal information or your data subject request, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority Datatilsynet.
