Privacy statement
Personal data collected via this site is used only for the purpose for which you have provided it. The NCSC thus acts in keeping with privacy legislation.
How does the NCSC process your personal data?
Information about which data is used for which purposes is precisely stated in
cases where your personal data is processed. The NCSC uses your personal data
solely for the purpose for which you have provided it. That means that if you
fill in your name and address to have a brochure sent, for example, this
information will not be used to also send other brochures to you unless you have
stated that that is what you want. Personal data that you provide to register
for a conference is deleted once the conference has been held. It also means
that the NCSC will not use your data for other purposes, such as to send press
releases. Data can however be used for crime investigation purposes if offences
are committed via the site or if criminal statements are made (and also in the
case of the exceptions provided for in Section 43 of the Dutch Personal Data
Protection Act). Personal data is not kept for longer than what is necessary for
the purpose of collecting it. Only the information that you have actively
provided is used for all cases in which personal data is processed.
What is the Personal Data Protection Act?
The Person Data Protection Act (Wet bescherming persoonsgegevens, Wbp) helps to
protect the privacy of citizens. The Wbp is applicable, among other things, to
data processed via the websites of ministries. The Personal Data Authority is
the regulatory authority for the Personal Data Protection Act. View or download

What is personal data?
Personal data is information that can be traced back to an individual. A number
or a home address is personal data, but email addresses may also constitute
personal data.
