Some of the third parties to whom we transfer personal data may be located outside the EU/EEA. When we transfer your personal data to countries outside the EU/EEA that do not have an adequate level of data protection according to GDPR, we will always ensure that the necessary security measures to protect your personal data are in place.

When you visit our company profiles on social media, we are joint data controllers with the social media providers. We process information about you when you interact with our company profiles. The purpose of this processing is to improve our products and services by enhancing our own company profiles.
Below, we have linked to the agreements on joint data control, privacy policies, and usage limitations for the social media platforms:
A cookie can contain text, numbers, or, for example, a date, and is essentially a text file stored on your computer, tablet, or phone. It is not a program and cannot contain viruses. Since a cookie resides on your device, you can always view, modify, or delete these cookies. You can do this within your browser settings.
We use cookies for statistics and analysis, as well as basic site functionality, which helps us improve our products through user insights. Here, we collect information about when and how long you visit a website, which and how many sections, articles, and other products you view, whether your computer has visited us before, the browser and operating system you use, IP addresses, which ads you see, and so on. With your consent, we also use the collected information to target our direct marketing to you. Furthermore, we use the information to document and clarify the value of ad placements to our advertisers.
When using Nordiske Medier’s websites generally, without filling out forms with personal information such as name and address, the websites use only cookies. If you provide additional information, for example, when creating a “Login,” a matching process will allow Nordiske Medier to make your behavior identifiable. This matching can only be performed by Nordiske Medier, and not by our partners. All companies within the Det Nordjyske Mediehus group may use the information, though only a few employees have access to view and interpret it.
These cookies are called first-party cookies and are set by Nordiske Medier.
Nordiske Medier also has a number of partners that set cookies, known as third-party cookies. These may include our advertisers, media agencies, ad networks, and other services (e.g., Facebook) that set these cookies.
The purpose of third-party cookies is to ensure the delivery of targeted online ads and to maintain the functionality of the services our sites offer. In the case of surveys, analyses, and similar activities, cookies are set to record your responses and thereby prevent you from receiving the same questionnaire again.
The information collected via cookies is stored in our systems—either internally or with partners. We have entered into data processing agreements with our partners, who are therefore jointly responsible for protecting personal data. We do not transfer or exchange data with entities with whom we do not have valid EU data processing agreements.

If you have the right to restrict processing, we may only process the data—excluding storage—with your consent, or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, or to protect the rights of another person or important public interests.
e. Right to object
In certain cases, you have the right to object to our otherwise lawful processing of your personal data. You can also object to the processing of your data for direct marketing purposes.

You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. In certain cases, withdrawing consent may require you to actively log out and delete any cookies in your browser. If you wish to update/manage your consent for newsletters, you can do so at the bottom of any newsletters you receive from us. Additionally, you can also contact customer service (see section 11).
If you are dissatisfied with the way we handle your personal data or if you wish to exercise your rights, you can find our contact information below in section 11.
