It is important for Midttrafik to be able to protect your personal information. That’s why we want to be as transparent as possible about how information is processed, on what basis and what you can do as a citizen.
It is therefore our responsibility to inform you of your rights in connection with our processing of your personal information.
This Privacy Notice explains how you as the data subject have special rights in relation to the processing of your personal information. However, there are certain limitations to these rights, as in many cases Midttrafik processes information as part of the exercise of the official authority vested in it as a public body.
Last updated September 2025.
Who are we?
From 1 January 2007, the transport company Midttrafik has administered public transport in the Central Denmark Region.
The regional bus services are commissioned and paid for by the Central Denmark Region, while the 18 municipalities in the region commission and pay for the bus services within their municipal boundaries.
Midttrafik is the result of a merger of the former Århus Sporveje Trafikselskab, part of Viborg Amts Fælleskommunale Trafikselskab (VAFT), part of Vejle Amts Trafikselskab (VAT), the former counties of Ringkøbing and Aarhus and the municipalities in the two abolished counties.
As a result of the structural reform, the public transport network was organised into transport authorities.
