Lastly, we disclose personal data to a third party if a situation rises where this is necessary for compliance with applicable Danish legislation.

Danish Energy Exports clear purpose is to create relationships across its customers, customers’ customers and business partners. It should be expected that your contact information (name, telephone number, mail and job title) can be disclosed to selected and trusted third parties if you are a current or former customer or business partner.
