Cookie and Privacy Policy

This privacy policy is designed to help you understand what data we collect, why we collect it, and what we do with this data. This is important not only to ensure the security of your personal data but also to ensure that Port of Hvide Sande complies with all requirements of the new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) that will come into effect on May 25, 2018. 

General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)

The GDPR sets new frameworks for how personal data is handled and how we relate to the right to privacy. The General Data Protection Regulation aims to strengthen and unify data protection rules and rights for the benefit of EU citizens. It applies to all EU organizations and organizations outside the EU (of any size) that provide goods and services to the EU, or who use tracking technologies (such as cookies or tracking pixels) to monitor the behavior of EU users.
