Additional Information

Dutch Personal Data Protection Act (unofficial English translation) / Wet Bescherming Persoonsgegevens WBP lays down the main rules for handling and protecting personal data. It has been translated into a code of conduct known as the Use of Data in Health Research (Code Goed Gedrag)

The DPA is the supervisory body and monitors the compliance with the laws governing the use of personal data.
NB! There is a new law that enables the Dutch goverment to give (very, very high) penalties (in euros) if you break the law on this point.

This project (ECRIN Integrating Activity/ECRIN-IA) has received funding from the European Union’s Seventh Framework Programme for research, technological development and demonstration under grant agreement no 284395
