The lawyer is the data controller for the processing of personal data received as part of handling a case. In the course of providing assistance, the lawyer needs to process personal data about the client, including name, CPR or CVR number, address, phone number, email address, etc. The lawyer processes this personal data to represent the client’s interests in the case and to fulfill the obligations imposed on the lawyer in advising the client. The legal basis for processing personal data is the rules of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Data Protection Act, including GDPR Article 6(1)(a) (consent), Article 6(1)(b) (contractual performance), Article 6(1)(c) (legal obligation), Article 6(1)(d) (protection of vital interests), or Article 6(1)(f) (legitimate interest balancing). For special sensitive personal data, the legal basis is GDPR Article 9(2)(a) (consent), Article 9(2)(c) (protection of vital interests), or Article 9(2)(f) (necessary for establishing a legal claim), along with Section 8(3) of the Data Protection Act.
As part of legal assistance, the lawyer may sometimes be obligated to disclose personal data to third parties. The disclosure of personal data to third parties will always be legally justified and necessary to fulfill your or your company’s legitimate interests. The lawyer regularly checks that the client’s personal data is not incorrect or misleading to the extent possible. The client is requested to inform about relevant changes in their personal data. The personal data will be deleted after the conclusion of the case. However, the lawyer may retain personal data for a longer period (up to 10 years) if necessary for other legislation, ethical rules for lawyers, or to assess compensation issues, etc.
Clients can request insight into the personal data the firm has recorded about them by contacting the lawyer. Clients have the option to complain about the processing of personal data to the Danish Data Protection Agency at Carl Jacobsens Vej 35, DK-2500 Valby. Further information can be found on the Danish Data Protection Agency’s website.
