You can also use the e-service to access the Incomes Register’s data reported by your employer and other parties who have made payments to you. The e-service also allows you to request an Incomes Register extract, which includes information on payments made to you and reported to the Incomes Register.

Right to object to data processing
We have a statutory obligation to process the Incomes Register data. Consequently, you do not usually have the right to object to the processing of your data – to ask us not to process it.
When the processing of your personal data is not based on our statutory obligation, you have the right to object. You can make a request at any time based on your specific situation. In such a case, we must stop processing your personal data unless there is a manifestly important and justified reason for processing it that supersedes your interests, rights and freedoms, or if the processing is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of a legal claim.
Right to the erasure of data
We are obligated to store the information laid down in the law in the Incomes Register and retain it for the period stated in the law. Therefore, your data cannot be erased from the register, even if you demand erasure.
If the processing is based on your consent, you have the right to ask us to erase your data at any time.
The processing of the personal data of subscribers to the newsletter and production bulletin, as well as individuals participating in training and surveys, is based on the data subject's consent. You can withdraw your consent at any time in free form, after which the data will be erased immediately.
Right to rectification
According to the Incomes Information System Act, the payers are responsible for the accuracy of the data they submit to the Incomes Register and for rectifying data without undue delay. If you notice an error or mistake in the data reported to the register, please contact the payer to rectify the data.
If technical errors are detected in the data, we may ask the payer to verify the accuracy of the data they have submitted to the Incomes Register.
Right to restrict processing
Under the Incomes Information System Act, the data subject’s right to restrict processing does not apply to the processing of personal data in the Incomes Information System.
