The information will not be provided to third parties unless you have given a separate acceptance or the GDPR, 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 information collected to target the marketing you receive by phone, letter, or electronic media.

Keep in mind that any information you provide – including personally identifiable information – in a public forum such as an online debate is not covered by this privacy policy and may be seen by third parties who have nothing to do with Idrætshøjskolen Aarhus.  We therefore recommend that you carefully consider what information you provide when using these.
