Who are we?

The website is operated by MÜSİAD Denmark. We are the data controller for personal data processed when you use the website, contact us, sign up for activities, or apply for membership.

If you have questions about this privacy policy or our processing of personal data, you can contact us at info@musiad.dk.

What personal data do we process?

We only process information that is relevant to the specific relationship, request, membership, or activity. This may include information you provide yourself and technical information generated when you use the website.

  • Name, email address, phone number, and message content.
  • Company name, CVR/business registration number, and related company details.
  • Information about membership, event registrations, dialogue, payments, and administrative matters.
  • Technical information such as IP address, browser, device type, timestamps, and ordinary server logs.

Purposes and legal basis

We process personal data to answer enquiries, administer memberships, carry out activities, operate the website, and comply with relevant legal obligations.

  • Contact and dialogue are typically based on legitimate interests or steps prior to entering into an agreement.
  • Membership administration, events, and invoicing are processed to perform agreements and association-related obligations.
  • Bookkeeping and documentation are processed where we are legally required to do so.
  • Newsletters and separate marketing are sent only where there is valid consent or another lawful basis.

Who do we share data with?

We may share personal data with suppliers and partners when necessary for operations, administration, communication, bookkeeping, events, or IT support. Suppliers processing data on our behalf must process it according to our instructions.

  • Hosting, IT, and security providers.
  • Email, form, membership, and event tools.
  • Accounting, payment, and administration providers.
  • Public authorities where we are legally required to disclose information.

Transfers outside the EU/EEA

If personal data is transferred to suppliers or subprocessors outside the EU/EEA, we use a relevant transfer mechanism and appropriate safeguards, such as the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses, an adequacy decision, or the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework where applicable.

How long do we keep data?

We keep personal data for as long as necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, or for as long as we are required to keep it under applicable law.

  • Enquiries are deleted or anonymised when the dialogue is complete unless follow-up or documentation is needed.
  • Membership and event information is kept while the relationship exists and for a subsequent period where documentation may be necessary.
  • Accounting and payment information is kept for the period required by bookkeeping rules.
  • Consents are kept until they are withdrawn or no longer relevant.
