Kan man radera uppgifter om sig själv på hemsidor såsom "Mr Koll"?
Lawline svarar
Hi!
Thank you for turning to Lawline with your question!
As of now are there no ways for a person to remove information about them on Mr Koll. Websites such as Mr Koll publish information about persons that can be found in so called “allmänna handlingar”, or, in English, public documents. Everyone has a right to read these documents according to the principle of public access to official records, or more specifically, the part of this principle which is called “handlingsoffentlighet”. The principle can be found in Sweden’s constitution, “tryckfrihetsförordningen”.
Therefore, are these websites practices lawful and they do not have to remove information about a person if the information comes from a public document.
Hopefully does this answer your question!
Sincerely,
