Information about you as a customer, your Rejsekort and payment agreements, top-ups travel and purchase history. and any registration in blocked lists and customer registers is retained for as long as necessary to administrate you as a customer, or otherwise to comply with applicable legislation, including the Danish Payment Services and Electronic Money Act, the Danish Bookkeeping Act, the General Data Protection Regulation and the Danish Data Protection Act, see the table below:
Type of personal data |
Retention period |
Master data (name, contact details, etc.) |

Information about your cards, recharging and renewal agreements, selected customer type, price and balance. |

On specific objective grounds, deviation from these deadlines will be possible, on the basis of specific assessment, so that the personal data is erased at an earlier or later time. See, for example, clause 6 of the card provisions for Private Rejsekort regarding registration of information in the customer register in case of debt, repeated failure to check out or suspicion of misuse.
5. Legal basis for processing
The legal basis for our processing of your personal data in an ongoing customer relationship is, in particular, Article 6(1)(a) of the General Data Protection Regulation, under which we may process personal data where processing is necessary for the performance of a contract.
Some of your personal data is also processed in accordance with Article 6(1)(c) of the General Data Protection Regulation, as the processing is necessary to comply with a legal obligation. This is due to the fact that Rejsekort & Rejseplan A/S is obliged to store information on financial transactions pursuant to the Danish Bookkeeping Act, as the information is included as part of Rejsekort & Rejseplan A/S' accounting material. The obligation under the Danish Bookkeeping Act means that this information must be stored for current financial year and a further 5 years. Thus, certain information will be stored pursuant to the Danish Bookkeeping Act even after the termination of a customer relationship.
The legal basis for Rejsekort & Rejseplan A/S’ processing of CPR numbers is consent, cf. section 11(2) no. 2 of the Danish Data Protection Act, cf. Article 7 of the General Data Protection Regulation. In special cases, the CPR number will continue to be processed, even if the data subject has to withdraw their consent. This applies, for example, if the registered person has defaulted on a debt to Rejsekort & Rejseplan A/S. In such cases, the legal basis for the continued processing of the CPR number is section 11(2) no. 4 of the Danish Data Protection Act, cf. section 7 of the Danish Data Protection Act, cf. Article 9(2)(f) of the General Data Protection Regulation.
The legal basis for processing information on customers' disabilities is Article 9(2)(f) of the General Data Protection Regulation, cf. Article 6(1)(c), cf. section 10 of the Accounting Act. Information on a customer's disability is, however, obtained only with express consent, cf. Article 9(2)(a) of the General Data Protection Regulation and section 7, paragraph 1 of the Danish Data Protection Act. Rejsekort & Rejseplan A/S only registers the information that the customer is entitled to a travel card with the customer type disability, but no further information, including the nature of the disability. Information about a customer's disability is important for calculating the customer's fare rate, and the information therefore constitutes accounting material, cf. section 3 of the Danish Bookkeeping Act. Rejsekort & Rejseplan A/S is thus obliged to keep the information in personally identifiable form, cf. section 10 of the Danish Bookkeeping Act, for 5 years from the end of the year to which the material relates.
The legal basis for processing telephone recordings in connection with customer inquiries to Rejsekort Customer Services is consent, cf. Article 6(1)(a) of the General Data Protection Regulation.
When issuing and managing School Passes, the legal basis for the processing of your personal data is that the processing is necessary for us to be able fulfil the agreement to provide you with a School Pass and administrate it, cf. Section 6(1) of the Danish Data Protection Act and Article 6(1)(b) of the General Data Protection Regulation, and that we have a legitimate interest in processing the data, cf. Section 6(1) of the Danish Data Protection Act and Article 6(1)(f) of the General Data Protection Regulation. Our legitimate interest is to be able to issue the School Pass to you and to administrate it. When Rejsekort & Rejseplan A/S processes a CPR number in this regard, our legal basis is that the processing is governed by legislation and is necessary to be able to identify the recipient of the School Pass, cf. section 11(2) of the Danish Data Protection Act, section 26(5) of the Danish Primary School Act.
The legal basis for Rejsekort & Rejseplan A/S’ processing of information about contact persons in connection with Rejsekort Corporate and School Pass is based on the balance of interests rule in Article 6(1)(f) of the General Data Protection Regulation.
The legal basis for the use of preference and statistical cookies on www.rejsekort.dk is consent, as per Article 6, paragraph 1, letter a of the Data Protection Regulation.
The legal basis for the use of technical cookies on www.rejsekort.dk and in RejseBillet is the balancing of interests rule under Article 6, paragraph 1, letter f of the Data Protection Regulation.
6. The right to withdraw consent
You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. You can do this by contacting Rejsekort Customer Services using the contact details stated below in clause 8. If you choose to withdraw your consent, this will not affect the lawfulness of our processing of your personal data on the basis of your previously granted consent, up to the date of withdrawal of consent. This means that if you withdraw your consent, this will take effect as from the date of withdrawal.
If you withdraw your consent, this means that we will in principle restrict the processing of your personal data by erasing or making the personal data processed under consent anonymous. As stated above under clause 5, this concerns the CPR number as well as recordings of telephone conversations if you contact Rejsekort Customer Services by telephone.
Please note that withdrawing your consent to processing of a CPR number entails that you can no longer hold a Rejsekort Personal, Rejsekort Flex or Commuter Card on Rejsekort. You will not have access to online self-service either. You can continue to use a Rejsekort Anonymous, however.
