§ 03
Thorough, not invasive
What Glasstie never touches, by design.
- CPR numbers, home addresses, birth dates
- Identity is proven from public roles and context, never from private identifiers.
- Denmark's register of beneficial owners
- It is closed to the public, and Glasstie respects that.
- Anything behind a login
- No private profiles, closed groups or paid databases scraped against their terms.
- Guesses about family
- A family tie appears only when a published source states it about people with a public or business role. Never from a shared surname.
- Health, religion, politics of private people
- Special categories of personal data are never collected.
