The material may be used on our website, on social media, in newsletters, presentations and printed materials. We aim to inform participants before or during an event. You can always let us know if you do not wish to be photographed or filmed.

You may also contact us afterwards if you would like us to review or remove a photograph or video in which you appear.

8. Cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies to:

  • ensure that the website works correctly
  • remember your preferences

Essential cookies cannot be disabled.

Analytics, functional and marketing cookies are used only in accordance with the choices you make in the cookie banner.

The current list of cookies, providers and retention periods is available through the cookie banner.

9. Chatbot and social media

Our chatbot is provided by GetKarla.ai and helps you find information on the website.

When you use the chatbot, your messages and technical information may be processed to answer questions, improve the service and prevent misuse.

You should not enter your national identification number, payment details, health information or other sensitive information into the chatbot.

The chatbot may provide inaccurate answers. Important information should therefore be checked on the website or by contacting us directly.

You can read more about how data relating to the chatbot is processed and stored by clicking here.

When you communicate with us on social media, both Destination Trekantområdet and the relevant platform may process information about you. The platform’s own terms and privacy policy also apply.

Depending on the circumstances, you may have the right to:

  • access your personal data
  • have inaccurate information corrected
  • have your personal data erased
  • restrict the processing of your personal data
  • object to the processing
  • data portability
  • withdraw your consent

These rights are not unconditional. For example, we may be required to retain certain information in order to comply with legislation or documentation requirements.

11. Competition terms

Unless otherwise stated in the individual competition:

  • participants must be at least 18 years old
  • each person may enter only once
  • prizes cannot be exchanged for cash
  • cheating or a breach of the rules may result in disqualification
  • the winner will be contacted using the details supplied when entering

If the winner does not respond within the stated period, we may select another winner. We use personal data to administer the competition, contact the winner and arrange delivery of the prize.

If a prize is supplied by a partner, we may share the information required to deliver the prize. The winner’s name or photograph will only be published if this has been clearly communicated and there is a valid legal basis for publication.

We may change or cancel a competition in the event of technical problems, cheating, force majeure or other circumstances beyond our reasonable control.

12. Use of the website and liability

We aim to ensure that the information on the website is accurate and up to date.

However, information concerning prices, opening hours, events, transport and experiences may change at short notice. You should therefore confirm important information directly with the relevant business or event organiser.

External businesses and partners are responsible for their own information, prices, terms and delivery.

We cannot guarantee that the website will always operate without errors or interruptions.

Destination Trekantområdet is liable in accordance with the general principles of Danish law, but cannot be held liable for circumstances beyond our reasonable control.
