General Legal Notice — State Intelligence Service // The Luxembourg Government
The Luxembourg State will use its best endeavours to ensure that the information published on the website is accurate. However, it may not be held liable for any omissions in connection with the update of information or forms, errors in the use of the system, coding errors or inaccuracies, or gaps, errors or inaccuracies in the information provided. The aim is to disseminate accurate, up-to-date information emanating from a variety of sources, but the Luxembourg State is unable to avoid all risks of material error. None of the information published on this website should be considered as exhaustive or as a commitment from the State. Explanations in layman's terms and translations are provided solely for information purposes. Only legal texts published in the Mémorial (Official Journal of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg) shall be deemed authoritative. The information appearing on this website is of a general nature. It is not tailored to personal or specific circumstances, and therefore cannot be regarded as constituting personal, professional or legal advice to the user. If the user needs personal or specific advice, they should always consult the competent departments within the different administrative bodies.
Unless otherwise specified, the Luxembourg State grants no license or authorisation with regard to the intellectual property rights which it holds in respect of the website, the elements it contains, or the services. Furthermore, no partial or total reproduction of the information or services, under any way or form, is permitted without prior written authorisation by the body.
Unless otherwise stated, the user is allowed to view, download, and print the available documents and information under following conditions:
The documents and information can only be used for personal and private informational purposes;
The documents and information cannot be modified in any way or form;
The documents and information cannot be disseminated outside of the website, except with prior written authorisation by the body.
The personal data processed by the SRE falls within two different legal frameworks, depending on whether the processing takes place in the scope of its missions, as specified in art. 3 of the law of 5 July 2016 on the reorganisation of the Service de renseignement de l’État (SRE), or in any other scope, such as this website for example.
The processing of personal data by the SRE in the scope of its missions is regulated by the law of 1 August 2018 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data in the scope of criminal matters and national security, which implements directive 2016/680 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data by competent authorities for the purposes of the prevention, investigation, detection or prosecution of criminal offences or the execution of criminal penalties, and on the free movement of such data. (see “oversight”)
The processing of personal data by the SRE that does not fall within the scope of its missions is regulated by regulation 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data (the “GDPR”).
The controller of this processing is the Service de renseignement de l’État, B.P. 467, L-2014 Luxembourg.
When a user is using the contact form on this website, the SRE may process the name(s), surname(s), email address and phone number of the user, and the message that the user sends to the SRE. The purpose of this processing is the identification of the user, and the communication with the latter, as well as the possibility to get back to former communications with the same user. The legal basis for this processing is the consent of the user, which is given at the moment when he/she sends the message to the SRE. The storage period of this personal data doesn’t exceed a maximum of 5 years. It will be deleted earlier, if the purpose for the processing has been fulfilled.
The SRE may transfer personal data to other Luxembourgish public entities, which process the data in accordance with the applicable legal framework.
At every use of this website, the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg saves the data relating to the IP address of the user in the log files of the web servers for security reasons. The SRE is not the controller of this processing.
According to art. 15 of the GDPR, the data subject can ask the SRE to access the personal data concerning him/her that is processed by the SRE in the scope of this website. If that’s the case, the SRE provides a copy of this personal data to the data subject.
In addition, the data subject has a right to rectification (art. 16 GDPR), a right to erasure (art. 17 GDPR), a right to restriction of processing (art. 18 GDPR), as well as a right to object (art. 21 GDPR) and a right to data portability (art. 20). If the legal basis for the processing is the data subject’s consent, the latter can withdraw the consent at any time.
If you want to make use of these rights, you may contact our data protection officer (sre_dpo@me.etat.lu ).
The data subject also has the right to lodge a complaint at the National Commission for Data Protection, located 1, Avenue du Rock'n'Roll, L-4361 Esch-sur-Alzette.
Disclaimer: These rights are strictly limited to the personal data that is processed by the SRE in the scope of this website, in particular its contact form. The processing of personal data by the SRE in the scope of its missions, such as specified in art. 3 of the law of 5 July 2016 on the reorganization of the Service de renseignement de l’État (SRE), does not fall within the scope of the GDPR. For more information regarding the processing of personal data processed by the SRE in the scope of its missions, see “oversight”.
