A service provider is an organisation, such as an authority, company or association, that has a self-service solution that offers users to log in with NemID or MitID.
A public service provider is, for example, an authority such as the Danish Tax Agency, municipality, library, Virk.dk or the public self-service solution Borger.dk, which is provided by the Danish Digitisation Agency.
A private service provider can be, for example, a pension company or an insurance company, a bank or a gaming issuer.
