The Privacy and Data Protection Policy for Gammel Estrup – The Danish Manor Museum and the Danish Research Centre for Manorial Studies

 

As a result of the new General Data Protection Regulation – also referred to as GDPR – Gammel Estrup has updated its privacy and data protection policy.

The new rules came into force on 25 May 2018 and apply throughout the EU (and the EEA countries). You are automatically covered by the rules and thus do not need to take any action.

All information that is attributable to a single person is personal information. This information may be given to the museum in connection with recruitment, affiliation as a volunteer, through a professional network or as a business partner. Information may also be given in connection with signing up for the likes of events or collected when visiting websites etc.

 

Security

Gammel Estrup always handles personal information securely and in accordance with applicable legislation: both when the Museum (most often) is the data controller and if the museum acts as the data controller.

Gammel Estrup always seeks to use data processors within the EU who abide by the same legislation as us.

Internally in the organisation, we seek to have a high level of data security. We encrypt or anonymise information as far as possible and lock information in paper format in accordance with law.
