  • Synopsis

    The purpose of this document is to provide a legal insight into the data harvesting of information from social media, during hazards, emergency incidents and crises situations. The legal insight will focus on both national and international rules, when and how they apply. Furthermore, there will be a focus on specific social media platforms and their individual terms of service - some provide opportunities while others present hindrances. This document can thus be carved into three sections (in corresponding order) – The national rules that apply in Denmark, the international rules in the form of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) that applies throughout Europe and finally the individual social media platforms themselves. The first section is primarily representative of the legal state in Denmark, while the second section can be used throughout Europe and finally the third section is applicable to any country.
