Who is data controller?

When bying or renting our properties

NRE Denmark A/S ("NRE") is the data controller in connection with the processing of your personal data received in general correspondence (by email or telephone), in discussions regarding vacancies or properties for sale, and in replies to general inquiries.

When you enter into a purchase or tenancy agreement, however, it is the real estate company in the NRE group that you contract with (the “Real Estate Company”) which is data controller in respect of your personal data, including in connection with subsequent correspondence, property management, remedy of defects, etc.

In business relationships

In business relationships, the data controlling entity will depend on your role in the business activity:

  • If you are a business customer (or an employee of a business customer) who engages NRE as a turnkey contractor, then NRE is the data controller.

  • If you are a supplier, sub-supplier, consultant, advisor etc. (or an employee of such party), then the real estate company that you contract with is the data controller.
