The contact information we store may include your name, company, address and other relevant contact details such as your telephone number and email address.

How do we use the information about you?

If you have emailed us with an enquiry and/or filled in a contact form at our website, for example to subscribe to Newsletters and marketing material or to become a member at our website to gain access to restricted parts of the website, we will use and keep your contact information to manage your request(s), to enable us to provide our services to you and to enable us to provide you with information that we believe may be of interest to you.

With whom is the information shared?

We may from time to time share contact information with Ellegaard Göttingen Minipigs A/S, https://minipigs.dk (abbreviated “EGM”), in order to provide relevant information for the practical organization of MRF and the webpage and LinkedIn group.

Otherwise, we only disclose contact information if required to do so by law, court order or for the purposes of prevention of fraud or other crime or if we believe that such action is necessary to protect and defend the rights, property or personal safety of MRF, our website or its visitors.

How long is the information kept?

We seek to ensure that we only keep your contact information for the period necessary for the relevant activity or services.

Protecting your personal data

We use a range of measures to ensure we keep your contact information secure, accurate and up to date, which include:

·         technological security measures, including firewalls, encryption and antivirus software

·         physical security measures, such as security passes to access our premises

The transmission of data over the internet (including by e-mail) is never completely secure. So although we use appropriate measures to try to protect personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of data transmitted to us or by us.

Your rights include the right to 1) request copy of your data; 2) request correction of your data; 3) request deletion of your data; 4) object to us processing your data; and 5) ask us to restrict the processing. For more information about your privacy rights, please click here.
