Denmark: Issued Guidance for the removal of personal information from search engines

On 13 July 2023, the Danish Data Protection Authority (Datatilsynet) published guidance for data subjects to request search engines such as Google and Bing to remove search results associated with their name. The guidance explains the exercise of the right to have information deleted under the data protection framework and how to contact the search engine to submit a request to delete information. Further, the guidance specifies that data subjects have the right to submit a complaint to Datatilsynet If the search engine denies the removal request.
