A cookie is a small text file that is stored in your web browser (e.g. Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Opera, etc.) and that registers you as a unique user. Cookies make it easier to use the Internet because you do not have to “start over” all the time. In other words, the website can use a cookie to remember information about your preferences. For example, a cookie means that you do not have to log in to a site every time you visit.
2.2. What do we use cookies for?
Cookies help tell NIH about your visit and behavior on our website and other digital platforms.
To determine who visits the NIH website, we use cookies to keep demographic and user-related statistics. Here we collect information about when and how long you visit the website, which and how many sections, posts and other pages you visit, whether your computer has visited us before, which browser and operating system you use, etc. With your permission, we use the collected information to target our direct marketing to you and people who resemble you. In addition, this information can help us in our future marketing efforts.
2.3. How long do we store cookies?
The cookies sent to you will be stored on your device for a varying number of months from the last time you visited the NIH website. Each time you revisit a website, the period is extended.

2.5. Cookies from our partners

The purpose of such cookies is to ensure the delivery of targeted online advertisements.
2.6. Cookies from Google (traffic measurements)
NIH uses cookies from Google. The measurements are carried out in strict compliance with personal data protection regulations.

3. Personal data
3.1. What is personal information?
NIH asks for your personal information when you register, use forms or sign up for newsletters, competitions, etc. This is primarily information such as name, address, zip code, email, telephone number, gender and age, but can also be information about interests, etc. In connection with a purchase or registration, mandatory information is clearly marked on the form. Providing other information in connection with a purchase or registration for a service is voluntary.
3.2. How long do we store personal data?
If you sign up for newsletters and competitions, etc., or if you have otherwise given consent to us using your information for marketing purposes, your information will be stored for a maximum of 2 years after the end of the follow-up.
When registering, we will store your information for as long as the Danish Accounting Act requires.
3.3. What do we use personal data for?
The personal information we collect about you, for example when you create a profile on one of NIH's digital platforms, is used primarily to complete the purchase or service for which the information was collected. The information is also used by NIH to get to know you better. This use may include, among other things, research and analysis aimed at improving our products, services and technologies, as well as displaying content and advertising tailored to your interests and hobbies.
The information will not be disclosed to third parties unless you give separate consent to this, or the Personal Data Act exceptionally allows the disclosure of general customer information.
If you have consented to receive direct marketing with news and offers, etc., we may also use the collected information to target the marketing you receive via telephone, letter or electronic media.
Please note that any information you provide — including personally identifiable information — in a public forum, such as an online discussion board, is not covered by this Privacy Policy and may be viewed by third parties not affiliated with Nordjyllands Idrætshøjskole. We therefore recommend that you carefully consider what information you provide when using these.
3.4. Data reconciliation
When you provide data on the NIH website or other digital platforms or give us permission to contact you about news and offers by phone, letter or electronic media (email, text message, MMS, video messages, pop-ups, etc.), we match the information you enter with information collected via cookies to target news and offers to you. NIH uses cookies to collect information about your behavior on websites and other digital platforms belonging to NIH.
3.5. Protection of personal data
According to the Personal Data Act, your personal information must be kept secure and confidential. We store the personal information you provide on computers with limited access located in controlled facilities, and our security measures are regularly reviewed to determine whether our user information is handled properly, always taking into account your rights as a user.
However, we cannot guarantee 100% security for data transmissions via the Internet. This means that there is a risk that others may gain unauthorized access to information when data is sent and stored electronically. Please note that you provide your personal information at your own risk.
3.6. Changes in the processing of personal data
The rapid development of the Internet means that changes in our processing of personal data may become necessary. We therefore reserve the right to update and change this Privacy Policy. In the event of significant changes, we will notify you by means of a visible notice on our websites or by email.
