Confidentiality - policy

Data Confidentiality Policy for Statistics Denmark.

Confidentiality - data treatment

Confidential codes are defined on the CN level according to our confidentiality policy. Data on these specific codes are never published, nor are aggregates which would make it possible to calculate the values of confidential codes. Prodcom codes are often aggregates of CN codes - so if a Prodcom code contains one CN code flagged as confidential, it will be flagged as confidential as well. In tables on turnover in each industry group. confidentiality is obtained by aggregation of industry groupings if it is necessary in order to avoid that information on individual enterprises could be attained.
