Data protection policy (for GDPR)

The Nordic Council of Ministers is the official forum for inter-governmental co-operation, the Nordic Council is the official forum for inter-parliamentary co-operation. The work is overseen by the Ministers for Nordic co-operation and the elected members of the Nordic Council.

As part of this work, we collect a range of data about you if you contact us.

In the other menus, we have gone into more detail about what we collect, why we collect it, what we do to protect your data, why we collect personal data and what rights you have with regard to data protection.

Personal data can be many things.

It may be a name, address and telephone number. Or it may be an image file or an IP address.

Personal data means all forms of information that can be used to identify an individual. As a consequence, it is not just the single piece of information that determines whether or not it can be classed as personal.

If a number of pieces of personal information do not identify an individual on their own but do so when put together, then they can be characterised as “personal data”.

We collect personal data about you in the following ways:

• When you use our website
• When you buy our publications online
• When you subscribe to our newsletter
• When you provide us with it yourself
• If you enter into a contract with us
• If you get in touch with us directly by e-mail etc.
• When you take part in meetings run by us.

You can find out in the menu below why, and on what basis, we do this.
