Housing Denmark Marketplace - Collecting and processing personal data


Housing Denmark Marketplace is a free platform available for property owners as well as tenants. 

 

When establishing contact between property owner and tenant, Housing Denmark Marketplace (hereafter Housing) collects and processes personal data on an ongoing basis.
Housing acts as data controller and is responsible for processing the personal data we receive and/or collect about you. You can contact us via email on GDPR@housingdenmark.com, phone +45 70 20 04 70 or via letter to Housing Denmark Marketplace Strandvejen 70, Hellerup, Denmark. 

 

Housing is not required to have a data protection officer (DPO). 

 

 

What information do we collect and from where?
Housing’s processing of personal data may include the following basic information:
 

-    Name
-    Email
-    Address
 

Housing receives such information when creating ads.

 

In addition, you sometimes pass on personal information to Housing yourself. This may happen during a telephone conversation or when sending an e-mail or a letter.

 

It is generally up to you whether you want to pass on personal information to us. We do however need certain personal information if you wish to create an ad.

 

 

For what does Housing use the information?
Housing registers and uses your personal information for the sole purpose of providing the agreed service. 

 

We collect data about your basic information (name, address etc.) for the sole purpose of being able to identify, verify and locate you in a safe way. 

 

Housing does not use personal data for marketing. 

 

Whilst handling the case, Housing may disclose or transfer your personal information to the following: 
 

-    Service suppliers
-    Group owned companies

 

Housing does not transfer your information to third countries unless you move there yourself with the exception that IT providers from third countries (USA) support certain features of the Housing website.

 

Are we allowed to do that?
Housing’s processing of your personal data is based on article 6, 1. (a) and (b) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

 

 

How long will your personal data be stored?
Housing will generally keep your information as long as your ad is active.

 

 

Right of access, rectification, erasure, limited processing and data portability
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) gives you a number of rights in relation to Housing’s processing of your personal data. 

 

Please contact Housing if you wish to make use of these rights. In order to process your request please send it via email to GDPR@housingdenmark.com or via letter to Housing Denmark Marketplace Strandvejen 70, 2900 Hellerup, Denmark. You are always welcome to call us at +45 70 20 04 70, but we recommend that you make a written inquiry. 

 

The right to view information (right of access)
You have the right to gain insight into the information Housing has about you.

 

The right to correct incorrect information (rectification)
You have the right to request that incorrect information about yourself is corrected.

 

The right of erasure (the right to be forgotten)
In special cases, you have the right to request erasure of the information Housing has registered before the date of the general erasure. 

 

The right to limited treatment
In certain cases, you may have the right to restrict the processing of your personal information. As of now, if you are entitled to limited processing of your personal information, we will only be able to process your information (except storing) with your consent, or for the purpose of determining whether a legal claim may be applicable or defended in order to protect a person, or if important social interests speak for this. 

 

The right to transmit information (the right to data portability)
In certain cases, you may have the right to receive your personal information in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and to transfer such personal data from one data controller to another without any hindrance. 

 

However, this implies that Housing’s processing of information about you happens automatically and is based on a consent or is required to fulfil a contract, and that you have provided us with the information yourself. All three criteria must be met in order for you to have the right to data portability. 

 

Right to object
In some cases, you may have the right to object to our otherwise legitimate processing of your personal information. 

 

Please contact Housing if you wish to make use of this right.
