Compliance Node Overview
The Faroe Islands, an autonomous territory of the Kingdom of Denmark, enacted the Lov um Persónupplýsingar (Law on Personal Data) 2018, aligned with the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The law is administered by Teldatryggi, the Faroese Data Protection Authority. It establishes data protection principles for the lawful processing of personal data, grants data subjects rights of access, rectification, erasure, portability, and objection to processing, requires controllers to implement security measures and appoint Data Protection Officers where required, mandates breach notification to Teldatryggi and affected individuals, and restricts cross-border transfers. The law reflects the Faroe Islands' alignment with European data protection standards despite not being a member of the European Union.
