Data protection monitoring

The Data Protection Act offers individual citizens a number of ways to inquire and be notified of how their personal data is being treated, and to influence this by correcting, deleting and blocking data. In addition to internal data protection monitoring by company data protection officers, the law provides for various control bodies that assist affected persons in enforcing their rights.
