Privacy policy

The Agency of Labour Market and Recruitment prioritizes data security and always processes, stores and discloses personal information as accordance with the applicable rules and recommendations.


Jobeffekter.dk is a website under the Danish Agency for Labor Market and Recruitment.

The Danish Agency for Labor Market and Recruitment processes all registered personal data in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation and the Danish Data Protection Act as well as good data processing practices, including the ISO 27001 security standard and recommendations from the Center for Cyber Security. The standard helps to ensure that we have a systematic and targeted approach to safeguarding all data and personal information. The EU Data Protection Regulation sets requirements for our security level. In data processing agreements with our suppliers, we can ensure that they also have the appropriate security measures in place.

If you are a registered user on Jobeffekter.dk, you are registered with name, email and possibly organization. The website does not handle other types of personal data.

In some cases, the agency entrusts collected personal data to our data processors. In such cases, the Agency has entered into data processing agreements with our data processors to ensure that the individual data processor has, among other things, undertaken to comply with the security requirements of the General Data Protection Regulation and to act solely on the instructions of the Agency. The data processor is also obliged to delete, anonymize or destroy all personal data when the relevant investigation or other form of processing is completed. This ensures that it is subsequently not possible to identify individuals who are included in e.g. surveys.

  • Erasure - in general you have the right to have your information deleted. However as a public authority, we can not normally delete the data due to special rules in the Danish Public Access to Information Act and the Danish Archives Act.
  • Objection - if you do not believe we have a reason to use your personal data, you also have the right to tell us.
  • Data portability - you generally have the right to receive a copy of your data in a machine-readable format that you can give to another data controller. However, this right does not apply when we use the data in our work as a public authority, but may be relevant, for example, if the basis for processing is a contract between the data controller and a data subject.
