Personal data policy for our Equal Treatment Counselling

Read more about how we process your personal data when you contact us for advice and guidance on how you can proceed with your case if you have been subjected to discrimination.

For your information, we will process your personal data when you contact us. This means that when counselling at the Danish Institute for Human Rights receives your inquiry, we will register your data so that we can answer your inquiry, and create an overview of the inquiries received by the Danish Institute for Human Rights. We will register your name and your contact details, what your enquiry is about and how we have responded.

Your personal data will be stored for five years after we have finalised your case. Both during and after processing your case, your personal data and the case will be filed in our filing system. Only specific employees have access to counselling cases.

All employees at the Danish Institute for Human Rights have an obligation of secrecy and your personal data will not be disclosed to people outside the Danish Institute for Human Rights without your consent.

You can always request access to and rectification or erasure of your personal data, and you can always ask us to stop processing your enquiry.

You can do this by contacting us on:

  • Telephone number: +45 32 69 86 66

Counselling is open for telephone calls on Monday-Thursday 12 noon-3 pm.
