Document background
A Data Protection Notice is a fundamental document required by both the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Danish data protection law. It should be implemented by any organization processing personal data of individuals in Denmark. The notice serves as a primary transparency tool, informing data subjects about their rights and how their personal data is handled. It must be provided at the time of data collection and include specific information required by Articles 13 and 14 of the GDPR, along with any additional requirements under Danish law. The document should be written in clear, plain language and be easily accessible to data subjects. Organizations should regularly review and update their Data Protection Notice to reflect changes in their processing activities or regulatory requirements.
