This Privacy Policy will be updated as required. Latest update 26 June 2023.

 

2. What personal data do we keep and why?

We only keep information that is necessary to comply with legislation and provide our course participants with services (contract fulfilment) including course attendance, invoicing, sending relevant course information and documentation and sending participant information to municipalities, cf. the Danish Public Information Act and municipal rules for subsidies and contracts with municipalities.

Only trusted employees and technical partners with whom a data processing agreement has been made have limited access to data and only to the extent necessary for providing a good service.

Any personal data that is received via e-mail is stored on Office 365 Cloud, which is covered by Microsoft's current guarantee for data security.

9. Your rights

In accordance with the applicable legislation, everyone is guaranteed the following rights:

• The right to receive information about how your personal data has been processed (duty of disclosure). You have the right to know who is responsible for the data, the purpose of the processing and who receives/processes the information. This Privacy Policy contains all this information.
• The right to access your personal data (right of access). You have the right to be informed about what sort of information we are processing as well as any printouts or copies of the collected information that may have been made.
• The right to have incorrect personal information corrected (right of rectification). If you believe that any information we have is incorrect, inaccurate or inadequate, you may request the information to be corrected.
• The right to have your personal information deleted (the right to be forgotten). If you believe that the information we have is not necessary for the purpose for which they were originally collected, you may request that the information be deleted. Please be aware, however, that we have a duty and the right to store certain personal data in order to comply with the rules of the law.
• The right to move your personal data (data transferability). You have the right to receive information about yourself in a structured, commonly-used and machine-readable format, and you have the right to transfer this information to another company.
• The right to object. You have the right to object to the use of personal data for, amongst others, direct marketing and profiling. However, we do not use profiling, while any marketing will always be preceded by explicit consent.

If you contact us regarding one of the above points (access, rectification, deletion, etc.), within one month, you will be notified about what we intend to do with regards to your inquiry. For example, if you request your information to be corrected or deleted, we will usually check that all the relevant conditions have been met, including whether there is a legal basis for the continued processing of data. If we conclude that the objection is justified, we will comply with the request.

 

10. Consent

For enrolments, invoicing and bookkeeping, we do not need to obtain consent to process data as its legality (See Article 6, EU Data Act) is derived from the necessity of processing data to be able to fulfil the contract.

However, in order to collect personal data for other purposes, e.g. supplementary information regarding a course or for signing up to receive our newsletter, we may request consent if necessary.

Consent may be in writing or verbal, but we must be able to document that consent has been given. In most cases, this consent will take the form of a ticked box on our website or during the enrolment process, when our IT systems will record the time and form. Consent may also be given via email or other digital communications.

When giving consent, you will be informed about the details, including the purpose and the retraction process.

 

11. Security

We ensure that any data is stored safely and discreetly. Our security measures are divided into organisational and technical measures.

The organisational security measures mean that only Studieskolen's trusted persons with a relevant professional purpose have access to your personal information. This is in connection with course enrolments, course administration, invoicing and communication. In addition, our teachers have limited access to your personal information. This is only information that is relevant for conducting the course (see point 6 above).

Our staff are guided and instructed about data security on an ongoing basis. This includes how to handle and protect information. We also keep track of our data processing activities, which are under the control of the Danish Data Protection Agency.

The technical security measures are linked to our use of IT systems for the registration and administration of group and participant data. Our data is securely located and has the required level of protection. All communication (for example, enrolments and payment) that occurs on our website is protected by authenticated security certificates with a 256-bit encryption key. A backup of the data is performed on a daily basis.

Our internal IT systems (PCs, etc.) are further protected with passwords, updated antivirus programmes and a firewall, while any physical material is locked in a secure location. In the event of destruction or repair of IT equipment, every effort is made to ensure that information can not be accessed by unauthorised persons.
