Privacy Policy
Last updated: draft for founder review.
Who we are
VESD: Vejle English-Speaking Directory is a public directory of local businesses and services in Vejle and Region Syddanmark, Denmark. This policy explains what information we publish, why, and how you can ask us to change or remove it. It is a working draft for founder review and is not legal advice.
What we publish
We only publish business contact data: business name, address, phone number, email and website. We do not publish personal data of private individuals without their consent. Before any listing is published we aim to verify it with the business itself.
- Business data only. Contact details relate to a business or its publicly stated contact channels, not to private individuals.
- No private personal data such as private addresses, personal phone numbers or photos of identifiable people is published without consent.
Where the data comes from
Listings are built from official and public sources, including the Google Places API and public business registers (for example CVR data), plus manual research and information businesses provide to us directly. We respect the terms of use and robots.txt of every source and never scrape search engines or services that prohibit it.
Cookies and analytics
We do not set cookies without your consent, and we do not use trackers that identify you across sites. If we add site analytics, we use a privacy-friendly service that sets no cookies and does not require a consent banner. We process as little data as possible.
Sponsored and premium placements
Businesses may pay for premium or sponsored placement. Any such placement is clearly labelled as advertising to comply with the Danish Marketing Practices Act: it is never disguised as an editorial recommendation.
Your rights
Under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) you may have the right to access, correct, or request deletion of personal data about you. To exercise any of these rights, contact us below.
Data removal and contact
To request removal or correction of an entry, email us at privacy@vesd.dk. We will treat removal requests promptly. If you are not satisfied with our response you may complain to the Danish Data Protection Agency (Datatilsynet).
